Did Canada really pass a law making at least ten million more people into citizens, without even a background check? I don't recall much debate about this last year; seems to me we should have given this some study.

Trump's respect for King Charles possibly quashed desire to annex Canada, says royal commentator | CBC News

An upcoming book authored by a prominent royal commentator says U.S. President Donald Trump was primarily interested in annexing Canadian territory just above the U.S. border — and his respect for King Charles may have quashed his interest.

Congratulations to @avilewis , new leader of the federal #NDP !

In these days when Canadian political discourse and policy have moved to the right, it's important to have a strong NDP making the case for different ideas — even if I reject those ideas completely.

It's good to see the hereditary principle at work in #CanPol: we can learn much from our parents and grandparents. I'm sorry to learn of the death of Stephen Lewis; at least in his final days he saw his son's success.

Today in Montreal there are Easter marches, and governmental offices are closed Monday.

Thank goodness there's been this "secularism" law passed banning "religious displays" or wearing "religious items" in Quebec....

Being Anti-Zionist in the 1800s is not the same as being Anti-Zionist today, and Today Canada's NDP Party is Riddled with Jew Hatred

To be an anti-Zionist in 2026 is to deny Israel’s right to exist at a time when radical views have permeated the discourse of left-wing parties in Western countries, fuelling political polarization and violence against Jews unseen since the Holocaust. Left-wing denunciations of Israel’s conduct in Gaza, legitimate on their own, are now routinely laced with antisemitic tropes and dog whistles that serve to encourage anti-Israel extremists.

The new NDP president, Niall Ricardo, greeted last fall’s ceasefire in Gaza, which included a plan to prevent Hamas from rebuilding its military capability, by posting: “The only entity that needs deradicalization and disarmament is the one committing genocide: Israel. Zionism is the sin, genocide is the crime.”

The NDP has an antisemitism problem

Recently, there has been more than a whiff of antisemitism about the way the party’s conducting itself

Bravo à @avilewis pour avoir gagné la course à la chefferie pour le #NPD (#NDP) J'ai beaucoup d'espoir en lui et je sais qu'il saura rallier les canadiens derrière le parti avec une offre beaucoup plus à gauche. Je suis franchement très optimiste pour le futur du NPD.

I'd be very proud if Canada had its first Jewish prime minister.

If it's Avi Lewis, I'm leaving the country.
