@angiebaby Confronting Islamophobia is essential. Coddling Hamas and Hezbollah is evil.

alexboutilierI'm thinking back to this recent piece from @arturmaks about how top natsec officials need to testify in Parliament more often. https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/april-2023/must-increase-confidence-canadas/
I'd like to add: if MPs are going to drag Canada's top natsec officials before committee -- and they should! -- the least they could do is some homework and *ask them something*.
Pleased to be in Toronto again. Chance to meet colleagues to talk about #antisemitism and revisit my old haunts on Church and Wellesley. #LGBT
Great to visit the #Norwegian Embassy in #Ottawa with students form the University of Ottawa Graduate School of Public & International Affairs. Thanks to Ambassador Frederiksen for an engaging conversation on #diplomacy the #arctic #NATO #multilateralism and a range of other #policy questions.
Today is the National Day of Remembrance for the victims of the Mosque Shooting in Quebec City and Action against Islamophobia. Important for us to confront #Islamophobia and build inclusive communities for all persons.
This Friday is International #Holocaust Remembrance Day - the anniversary of the liberation of #Auschwitz Birkenau by Soviet forces. It’s important to remember the 6 million men, women and children who were murdered because they were #Jews. We must also remember other victims of Nazism - Roma, the disabled, Poles, Soviet POWs, gay men, political prisoners and others. Let’s build a more robust and resilient democracy for all. #IHRD
@rickysmith It’s not. But, it doesn’t negate the problematic lack of control over classified documents. We’re they properly stores? Who had access to them? How were they missed in the first place? Why were they there? Lots of questions that Biden and his team should answer.
@paulminshall Hypocrisy doesn’t seem to be an impediment for many in the GOP these days.
The acknowledgment that President #Biden had unauthorized classified documents at his home and at an office is problematic. The mishandling of #classified material is not a partisan question. #Trump case is worse for a number of reasons. The cavalier attitude that many politicians have toward secret and top secret material is a function of lax controls, belief that the consequences of disclosure are minor, and a general belief that most things are over classified (real problem)
