What does no politics in the classroom mean? TDSB worried ̷P̷o̷g̷r̷o̷m̷s̷ programs may have to be Cancelled!

What does no politics in the classroom mean? Ford government’s directive has created fear and confusion, say parents and teachers

A temporary ban on students sharing their family’s culture in class. A parent-organized Pride event moved outside school hours. Teachers afraid to answer students’ questions around the Israel-Hamas war.

Over the past academic year, Toronto parents and teachers say activities and discussions that would typically be normal to have in the classroom have suddenly become a source of fear and confusion — and they pin the blame on an edict dropped by the Ontario government last September.

Trump says he does not endorse Netanyahu’s claim there is no starvation in Gaza

Donald Trump has said he believes there is a famine in Gaza and he has told Israel that “maybe they have to do it in a different way”.

Speaking outside his hotel in Turnberry, South Ayrshire, on Monday, the US president said people in Gaza needed “to get food and safety right now” and that he wanted to get ceasefire talks restarted.

Asked if he agreed with the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, who said earlier on Monday that there was no starvation in Gaza, Trump replied: “I don’t know. Based on television, I would say not particularly, because those children look very hungry. We’re giving a lot of money and a lot of food and other nations are now stepping up.”


Note: Viral images of starving Gaza boy don’t tell the whole story because he suffers from genetic disorders, critics say

A people who celebrate rape, murder and the so-called “martyrdom” of their son’s and daughters are capable of anything if it advances their agenda.

Which countries recognize Palestinian statehood?

… France will be the 148th country to officially recognize the Palestinian territories as a state. Just under half of these nations did this formally after November 1988, when the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) officially declared Palestine an independent state. Endorsements came from communist states such as the Soviet Union and China, as well as nonaligned countries Yugoslavia and India.

Michael Geist: When it comes to antisemitism, the sound of silence is loud in Canada

Deborah Lyons, Canada’s recently retired envoy for combating antisemitism, this week lamented that the effort to shine a light on increasing antisemitism in Canada had left her “despondent and despairing about the fact that it was hard to get people to speak up, to speak with clarity, to speak with conviction about what we were seeing happening here on Canadian soil.”

Jewish communities have long known silence. At its worst, it has manifested in some communities as synagogue floors covered in sand to mask the sound of feet shuffling during silent prayers or by those hidden during the Holocaust to escape capture by the Nazis. In today’s Canada, silence comes in different ways. Some Jews quietly conceal their identity by refraining from displaying a Star of David or kippah, families remove mezzuzahs from their front doors to avoid telegraphing that it is a Jewish home, and the community avoids widespread promotion of events hosted in community centres due to security concerns.


“In fact, even political views on the founding of the State of Israel or expressions of support for Zionism, which as former prime minister Justin Trudeau noted “is the belief, at its simplest, that Jewish people, like all peoples, have the right to determine their own future” runs the risk of being labelled as “racist” in today’s educational environment, thereby silencing the perspectives.”

What about Canada? I am called a racist colonizer with no right to exist here and am labeled the APEX predator within the DEI/CRT hierarchy of evil solely because I have white skin.

How is it a prof has never heard of Islam or thought about the impact of Muslim immigration on current events?

Former City of Ottawa lawyer who defaced Holocaust memorial pleads guilty to mischief, gets bail

A former lawyer for the City of Ottawa who desecrated the National Holocaust Monument by splashing it with red paint and scrawling the words FEED ME in large red block letters, has pleaded guilty to mischief and been released on bail to his parents’ house.

Iain Aspenlieder, who is expected to be sentenced later this year, last month vandalized the memorial to six million Jews killed by the Nazi regime. His lawyer said Friday that the act was an attempt to draw attention to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and was not motivated by hate.


I suggest they investigate whether hair dye poisoning played a role.

Sorry Deb But My Inclusivity Does Not Include Importing Murder Cults

Outgoing antisemitism envoy calls out business, religious leaders for lack of action

OTTAWA – Ottawa’s outgoing envoy for tackling antisemitism is accusing Canada’s business sector and civil society of failing to call out a rising tide of hate against Jews and other minorities.

In an extensive interview with The Canadian Jewish News, Deborah Lyons also says she could not get a meeting with Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre during her nearly two-year term.

She says Canadian society faces a growing gulf over violence in the Middle East and Canadians are “listening and hearing on different frequencies” instead of trying to find common ground against hate.


What a clueless woman. Your average Canadian did not ask that a dangerous cult be invited to settle here, and we do not wish to be blamed for something we are not responsible for.

Our imperious antisemitism Tsarina doesn’t get that no one will listen to a gov’t lackey demanding that we protect Jews from the Muslims she and her elite pals imported.

Face it Deb the Liberal government that appointed you would rather court the Islamist vote than protect Canadians.

It seems you were too insulated to realize you were being used.

Whatever vision of Canada you thought you were living in was just a mirage. Canada has been overrun by mass immigration from incompatible cultures who care nothing for our values and heritage. You and your Kool-Aid drinking pals called that multiculturalism and diversity. We call it The Great Replacement.   

 MASS DEPORTATION. REMIGRATION. That is the only solution.

Here’s the source article for this story in the CJN: Deborah Lyons shares why she quit as Canada’s antisemitism envoy: ‘It was hard to get people to speak up’

Posh Twats for Palestine

How Israelophobia became the favoured hobby of the filthy rich.

I knew it. As soon as I saw that cast member of the Royal Opera House smugly unfurl his Palestine flag, I knew he’d be some privileged they / them with either blue blood or blue hair. And I was right. His name’s Daniel Perry, he’s a they / them, he was educated at a £48,000-a-year high school, and he calls himself a ‘queer dance artist’. Now all we need to discover is that he has ADHD and he really will be a walking checklist of middle-class twattishness.

Why Al-Jazeera Should Be Designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization

On June 18, the Qatari-owned Al-Jazeera TV network (in Arabic) broadcast another “exclusive” video of a speech by Abu Obaida, the masked spokesman of the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group Hamas.

This is the group that started the current war in the Gaza Strip, when thousands of its members invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, murdering 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals and wounding thousands. Another 251 Israelis and foreign nationals were kidnapped to the Gaza Strip, where 50 are still held captive. At least 20 of those hostages are believed to be alive.

Belgium questions 2 Israelis at music festival over Gaza crime allegations

BRUSSELS (AP) — Belgian police questioned two members of the Israeli army who were attending a music festival in Belgium over allegations of serious violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza, the Federal Prosecutor’s Office in Brussels said in a statement Monday.

In a statement to The Associated Press, the Israeli Foreign Ministry said an Israeli citizen and an Israeli soldier who were on vacation in Belgium “were taken in yesterday for interrogation and were released shortly afterward.” It said Israeli authorities “dealt with this issue and are in touch with the two.”


I bet the LPC is salivating at the prospect of imitating Belgium.

Canada, UK, France and 22 other countries say the war in Gaza ‘must end now’

You’re a nobody in Western literary high society if you don’t wear a keffiyeh

American Katie Kitamura, Swedish Fredrik Backman, British Max Porter, Pulitzer Prize winners Jhumpa Lahiri and Hisham Matar have one thing in common: they are well known Western novelists who don’t want their books translated into Hebrew.

Before the current war, there were one or two cases a year of writers refusing Hebrew translation for political reasons. The first was Alice Walker, the author of “The Color Purple.” Today, there are countless. Like the 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature winner, South Korean Han Kang.

Since winning the Nobel, Kang has been contacted by several Israeli publishers. Her agent’s letter in response to the latest request from Yoav Reiss, the Israeli publisher of Persimmon, reads: “Kang does not wish her work to be presented in Israel.” As Chilean Isabel Allende has just decided.

‘Blaming The Jews’ – Again

The ways to avoid arrest in London these days, according to British author Douglas Murray, are: “[W]hen first being questioned by a police officer, he should promptly shout ‘Jihad, jihad, jihad’. Next he should whip out a sign saying ‘Slay the infidel’ before rounding it all off with a few cries of ‘Intifada’… Had [Montgomery Toms] followed my advice, the first officer would doubtless have said: ‘Very well, sir, please carry on and have a nice day.'”
