I donated to Paul Finlayson’s GoFundMe to help him achieve justice in his fight against Guelph-Humber U which fired him for his pro-Israel views and nothing else. They have spent a fortune thwarting his efforts to make his case. It’s a truly terrible case of academic mobbing: https://t.co/17g19exp5E
The libels against Israel by the @nytimes led to the creation of @HonestRepCanada and @HonestReporting@davegordonwrite speaks to the Kristoff piece and the fact checking required by the media.

Yesterday, the Canadian Antisemitism Education Foundation (@CAEFto) and @honestrepcanada hosted ���What the Media Gets Wrong about Israel and What to Do About It,” an engaging discussion featuring our Executive Director, @MikeFegelman, alongside @itsrobroberts, Editor-in-Chief of the @nationalpost, and National Post writer and journalist @davegordonwrite.
The panel explored how media bias and misinformation shape public perceptions of Israel, highlighting examples of distortion, omission, and misleading narratives in Canadian news coverage.
They also discussed findings related to @CBCNews' reporting on Israel, the under-reporting of antisemitism, and the broader challenges facing journalism today.

Canadian children are playing with dolls stitched from cotton picked by slaves.
Independent lab testing has revealed that clothing on many authentic Labubu dolls contains cotton from China’s Xinjiang region.

So let’s get this straight…
Fifteen Senators spent over 17 months hearing from 44 witnesses to understand why antisemitic incidents in Canada have surged to record highs following the Hamas-led terror attacks of October 7, 2023, and in their final report, they didn’t mention Islamic extremism even once?!
How is that possible? That kind of omission doesn’t just weaken the report, it undermines its credibility.
If the goal is to confront rising antisemitism honestly, then leaving out the key ideological driver, even if it's politically sensitive, only ensures the problem is misunderstood and left unresolved.
