There is a distinction at protesting at the Israeli consulate. They are representing the State Of Israel. Protesting at a Jewish Community Centre is against individual Jewish Canadians who have done nothing and have no influence on what is happening over there.
If you heard about, it was an extremely successful protest.

Honk honk.

Earlier in the week, police of their own initiative parked their cars on the boulevard where Hamas supporters (and some others in their company who acted distastefully and with whom I fully disagree, but who did not break the law) engaged in their arguably criminal activity.

Rights are rights. Don't fuck with my, your, or someone else's right because you hate muzzie sandniggers.
Ok, with this that you keep on quoting, from the news story that you are the only one capable of actually reading and nobody else has read, including myself, & I’m even gonna colour code this:

ORANGE for the Hamas Supporters who are doing the threatening…&…
YELLOW for the “some other others in their company that didn’t do anything illegal”

I’m sure you’re gonna argue this too, BUT, they’re talking about two groups of people. The ones that were in the company of the ones doing the threatening, and the other ones, though distasteful etc…not breaking the law. Keep in mind that apparently I haven’t read this, but look at what you’re quoting.
It got Ron mad.
Mad? No. Frustrated? Somewhat.
What's in it for you?
Someone can’t have an opinion different than your own without being bought and paid for or whatever? That’s just being a dick.

You got a problem with the Canadian legislation that’s being ignored, take it up with your MP, but you are so far out in left field that you’re gonna come back out in the right once you circle the planet here.
Why shouldn't people protest a genocide?
Within the boundaries of the law, fill your boots. Outside of those, with reined in selective enforcement from on high? That’s just not cool.

When somebody breaks the law then then by all means they should be arrested. Until then they are free to protest all they want.

Is it the topic you don't like?

Hundreds of Palestinian supporters blocked the Capital Pride Parade shortly after it began Sunday afternoon, demanding parade officials come down and meet their “demandsBut I thought Tricks where for kids Queens where for Palestinian?

Protesters gathered on Wellington Street near O’Connor, dancing to music while holding up signs and Palestinian flags. Many signs said “no pride in genocide.”

A giant pink-and-black banner read “all of us or none of us” and “stone wall was an intifada.” They also chanted slogans like “free, free Palestine,” “long live the intifada” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”🤔

“We will not leave until our elected officials and Capital Pride come down and meet our demands,” said Masha Davidovic, a member of Queers for Palestine-Ottawa group?

At about 2:30 p.m., the decision was made to cancel the remainder of the parade.

The confrontation comes after Capital Pride quietly took down its statement of solidarity with Palestinians this year, sparking criticism among some members of the community.😳

Stefania Wheelhouse of TotoToo Theatre was marching in the parade with 30 other people before the event was cancelled. She told the Ottawa Citizen that they walked for about a block and half before they were stopped.

Around an hour later, they received word from Capital Pride officials that the remainder of the parade was cancelled and they were told to pack up and leave.

“We are bummed, of course, but we had a blast for the block and a half that we walked, and everyone was so positive, so it was still a net win for us,” Wheelhouse said.

“Blackmailing the mayor in the middle of the parade is completely, highly inappropriate. … There are ways to lobby. There are ways to advocate, and holding a parade like this hostage and blackmailing politicians in the middle of it is completely inappropriate.
“Hopefully the rest of the day we can just go about celebrating. The community organizations are down (on Bank Street) with their booths, and I’m sure the music will be good and all that stuff. It’s just unfortunate the parade was hijacked.”
Shame Ottawa wasn’t as progressive as Calgary, but then nobody expects protests to happen in Ottawa…😁

Well, at least Hamas is mentioned here, but only in the last paragraph & only regarding statement by the Conservatives. Interesting.
Hamas isn't the Jew Klux Klan.

Smotrich at Yedioth conference: Not even a grain of wheat will enter Gaza

Moran Azulay | published: 04.07.25 | 01:46

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, speaking at Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's People of Israel Conference, addressed reports that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) informed the government of an impending need to resume humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. Smotrich expressed astonishment at the prospect of the IDF communicating through the media, stating: "If this is true, it's astonishing that the IDF is speaking to us via the press. Not even a grain of wheat will enter the Strip." He further questioned the feasibility of prioritizing the return of hostages before the defeat of Hamas. "First the hostages and then the defeat of Hamas—this is a slogan whose viability I simply do not recognize," Smotrich said, added, "It's good that the war has begun. It's unfortunate that it started the way it did. But we are changing the reality in the Middle East."
