    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    A clandestine intervention in Canada’s elections is not exactly “interference” if it’s solicited, invited and welcomed, and it’s not precisely “foreign” if the culprits are willing Canadian operatives and proxies in foreign-directed influence campaigns. This appears to have been the case...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's biggest coalition partner said on Tuesday it would support a prospective deal to free hostages from Hamas captivity even if it entails an overhaul of Israel's Gaza war strategy. http://apple.news/Ak_EJ0cmuQoq30vUDz7WljA The statement by Shas, an...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I was trying to point out the irony in the ongoing negotiation failure above. The negotiated truce thing just isn’t working, especially where the negotiators are… …are not taking verbatim positions back and forth, & have agendas of their own.

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    The clock is ticking for me here and I’ve got things to do before I go to work for the full day again, but I will try and pick through some things as time permits. The Charters (both Canadian & Hamas) aren’t perfect, but a…stated set of goals let’s say. In Canada, there are court challenges...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Isn’t that almost exactly what this Netanyahu & the current Israeli gov’t have been saying since day 1 (Oct 7th, 2023)? They’ve been nothing if not consistent. Hamas & Friends, or the Palestinians, or the Arabian Gazians, or whomever at this point, is down to about…& nobody knows the real...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    Wow…ok. Let’s start here. Is the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms perfect? No. Does it work most of the time? Yes. Does it work all the time? No. Am I claiming to be horribly oppressed? No. For the instances where the Canadian charter fails, do we just scrap it in its entirety? No. Do you...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    Being all Jewie with their Jewy McJewface stuff? Eating babies and such? Was the Charter (Canadian, not Hamas) suppose to protect Canadians against Gov’t overreach? It failed, but was that why it was created? Nope. Not as of yet. How’s that basic law thing work’n out for them? In, let’s say...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    What the Hell is going on with ALL of these ladies spectacles? Is this some fashion statement that hasn’t hit the prairies yet?

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    It’s been a long day so I’m gonna go with the Kohl’s notes versions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Charter_of_Rights_and_Freedoms http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1988_Hamas_charter Ok, so basically, the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms makes an effort to be a human rights...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    Voter intentions… if the election was gonna happen today… but it probably won’t for another 12 to 17 months. It just kinda gives a rough idea of a finger on the pulse sort of thing. It’s going up and down for each party somewhat… but it’s good to look at trends over the long term. The...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    I’m betting that the opposition might very well be the Bloc. It’s a little late for the NDP to pretend that they’re not in bed with the Liberals since pre-Ottawa parking situation that was saved by the bell for the government by Putin invading Ukraine… If the NDP ditches the non-coalition...

    Non-Coalition Coalition that’s Definitely NOT a Coalition…

    The Trudeau Liberals’ plan to pick the pockets of Canadians of up to $120 million to give 80 newbie MPs a lifetime pension is unravelling. The NDP is so disgusted by the shady arrangement to give MPs the sweetheart deal that they want to scrap the proposal put forward by the senior partner in...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    So the Civil War in Israel that you keep mentioning, that it’s on the brink of, has nothing to do with the hostages in Gaza then? At this stage and the negotiations, I fully expect to see a whole lot more videos from select abductees from Oct 7th videos hitting the news. (I get that much of the...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Well, they’re not declaring independence from Hamas. While Hamas officials have said the president’s ideas were serious, the group wants a detailed proposal in writing that reflects what Biden described and includes a comprehensive and lasting cease-fire, according to Arab mediators. Hamas...

    UNRWA. It's like this...

    So…with the Biden peace cease-fire proposal that leaves Hamas in power in Gaza & removes Hamas from power in Gaza…without saying how it’ll accomplish either at this point, I wonder how UNRWA (as essentially not only a wing of the UN, but a wing of Hamas) fits into the rebuild plans for Gaza in...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Anyway, Hamas/Israel etc…An aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed on Sunday that Israel had accepted a framework deal for winding down the Gaza war now being advanced by U.S. President Joe Biden, though he described it as flawed and in need of much more work? I wonder if Netanyahu...
