Jewish community outraged over police Jihad podcast on Oct. 7, anti-Israel rallies

OTTAWA — Toronto’s Jewish community is reacting with alarm to remarks made by a pair of Toronto Police constables in a now-deleted podcast episode.

Constables Haroon Siddiqui and Farhan Ali — both Muslim liaison officers — hosted an episode of the police-produced Project Olive Branch where they made a number of questionable comments, including praising the Oct. 7 2023 Hamas terror attacks for an increase in converts to Islam.

12 people in hospital after 3 suspects ‘opened fire indiscriminately’ inside Scarborough pub

On what was supposed to be a celebratory night, the grand opening of a new pub at Scarborough Town Centre on Friday was met with gunfire, sending 12 people to the hospital.

Toronto police said three masked male suspects, one armed with an assault rifle and the other two with handguns, entered Piper Arms at 520 Progress Avenue just before 10:40 p.m.

“They walked into the bar. They produced their guns, and they opened fire indiscriminately on the people sitting inside the bar,” Supt. Paul MacIntyre of Organized Crime Enforcement told reporters at the scene.

Toronto is such a 3rd World Craphole I’m not even going to suggest this is anything but gang related.

HUNTER: Toronto like Chicago ‘fixated’ on niche liberal issues instead of crime

Brandon Johnson – Loves Looting

Jerry Partee brought Chicago’s tally of deaths so far this year to 67 on Sunday afternoon.

Cops say the 48-year-old was gunned down in a drive-by shooting at 2:23 p.m. not far from the United Center on West Walton St. Partee took bullets in the chest. No one has been arrested.

This does not seem to bother hyper-progressive Mayor Brandon Johnson. But this should all sound chillingly familiar to you.

Dogs in body armour and humans on edge: How an ‘unprecedented’ wave of coyote attacks has terrified a Toronto neighbourhood

As seen here coyotes play an important role in the city’s eco-system.

It has come to this in Toronto’s downtown condoland: residents walking their pets have been advised by the city to dress their dogs in body armour. When going to the park, people are asked to carry noisemakers and green garbage bags, which they can snap and wave while shouting and running toward any coyotes they see. A local parent told a public meeting Thursday night that June Callwood Park has become “completely unusable” and that parents are “terrified” to even walk their toddlers home from the school bus.

Union representing 30,000 city of Toronto workers starts countdown to strike

Toronto’s largest workers union has requested a no-board report, which could put them in position to strike in as little as three weeks.

CUPE Local 79, which represents 30,000 city employees, including nurses, child care workers and restaurant food inspectors, voted overwhelmingly in favour of a strike last month, citing low wages.

Toronto needs a DOGE.

City Hall’s children’s services has own racist anti-racism group – no whites allowed

The City of Toronto’s children’s services division has its own dedicated anti-racism group, and whites and other ethnicities are banned from meetings, The Toronto Sun has learned.

The group, called the CABR (Confronting anti-Black racism) (Calling All Black Racists) strategic advisory circle, differs from City Hall’s dedicated CABR unit, made up of a handful of staff at Toronto’s social development division. (There is a third body, the CABR advisory committee, which meets every few months and reports to council.)

DUNDAS: City’s process to choose name Sankofa Square flawed from start

Let’s talk about revitalizing our beloved Yonge-Dundas Square at the heart of Toronto.

‘We’re hurting’: GTA parents and community groups call for action over missing Black boys

After vanishing without a trace for close to 10 months, a 15-year-old boy was safely found by police and returned home to his Ajax parents last week.

Just days before, his father Clayton gave an impassioned speech to a Black-led community meeting at a North York church, about what he said was the authorities’ indifference to an increasing number of families who have been urging police to help find their missing children.

… Toronto police field roughly 10,000 missing person calls each year. In many such cases, Patterson said, someone is “either running away from something, or they’re running to something,” and uncovering those factors is key to where police start their search.

Gang recruitment is a significant factor.

Why are smash-and-grab robberies like this one becoming more common in Toronto?

One moment, three men are chatting inside a Scarborough jewelry store. The next, the driver of a pickup truck slams into the storefront, instantly shattering the glass and narrowly missing one of the men inside.

Instantly, chaos erupts. The man in a striped shirt is yelling and jumping up and down with his hands above his head. The men briefly run out of the frame. Then, a computer monitor is thrown into the room.

Toronto is finally beating New York at something: rat growth. A new study reveals a key factor behind the rodent boom

Toronto’s rat population is growing faster than the rodents of New York City, Chicago or Amsterdam, according to a new study, illuminating how climate change and urbanization are turbo-charging rat growth in the absence of effective control strategies.

Residents who have complained for years about a perceived rodent surge now have peer-reviewed evidence, published in the journal Science Advances on Friday, that lays bare the scale of Toronto’s problem. Of the 16 cities analyzed, Toronto had the third-fastest growing rat population.

Derek Finkle: Truth bomb blows a hole in harm-reduction activists’ arguments

A week after Doug Ford’s Ontario government passed legislation in early December ordering all supervised injection sites within 200 metres of schools and daycares to close, harm reduction activists did the expected and announced they were taking the province to court.

One of the sites being ordered to close in Toronto, the Kensington Market Overdose Prevention Site, held a press conference and introduced the lawyers who will argue on its behalf that the closure of these sites  violates the charter rights of drug users.

Brad Bradford: Bylaw protecting Toronto Jewish neighbourhoods in the works, no thanks to Chow

In the fifteen months since October 7, an absence of leadership has turned Toronto into a city that many don’t recognize. Even more upsetting, for some it has turned into a city where they don’t feel safe.

It seems almost weekly that a Jewish-owned business, community centre or synagogue is targeted by vandalism or protests. A Jewish girls’ school, Bais Chaya Mushka Elementary, has been shot at on three separate occasions. Neighbourhoods have been deliberately targeted for protests because of their Jewish populations.

Union representing 30,000 City of Toronto workers votes for strike mandate

A union representing some 30,000 inside workers at the City of Toronto says its members have overwhelmingly voted in favour of a strike mandate if bargaining fails to yield a deal.

The union represents city workers in public health, planning, city hall operations, employment & social services, cleaning, court services, ambulance dispatch, child care, 311, recreation programming, shelters, water & food inspection, and long-term care.

CUPE Local 79 President Nas Yadollahi told reporters Tuesday that over 90 per cent of workers who took part in the vote over the weekend opted to give the union a strike mandate.

Expect major Chowfuckery.
