Memeber of Parliament (Ret) Proud to have served as a 🇨🇦 MP for almost 16 years

[David Sweet @DavidSweetMP]

Over the last 15 years, I've had the absolute honour and privilege to serve our community as your Federal Member of Parliament — a duty I will continue to do until the next election.

I had the opportunity to speak in the House about my time as a Member: https://t.co/OtE5moGDCo

After the 1972 Munich Massacre, when Palestinian terrorists murdered 11 Israeli athletes, the Olympic Games continued.

Flags for every country flew at half-mast … except for all 10 Arab nations in attendance, who refused and demanded their flags stay at full staff.

Pretty brazen. Has the penny dropped yet?

You win some, you lose some.

Canada lost Dr. Emmanuel Moss, a brilliant Chief of cardiac surgery in a Montreal hospital who is leaving Canada due to rising antisemitism.

Dr. Moss will be gone but now Canada has Naveed Awan, a pro Palesitinian organizer from Pakistan who became famous for harassing Canadian Jews in their neighborhoods.

Canadians need to understand this is a choice too many of them made by being silent about Antisemitism.

Canada’s shame.

One of the most outstanding posts I have read in a long time. I don’t know Aaron Pete but the words he speaks are those of Iron!

[Aaron Pete @Aaronpete_]

I'm prepared to go to jail over this.

My grandmother Rita Pete went to St. Mary's Indian Residential School. She experienced terrible abuse. As a consequence, she struggled with alcohol use most of her life.

My mother was born with FASD as a consequence of her using alcohol to cope with her trauma.

I am Chief of my community Chawathil First Nation. I am working to address the longstanding impacts of these past policies through renovating homes, building new homes, creating childcare, and growing businesses through economic development.

I have interviewed people who went to Indian Residential Schools. I have interviewed people who believe Indian Residential Schools were awful, horrible schools, meant to remove the Indian from the child.

I've also interviewed people who believe they were well intended, generous investments by Canadian taxpayers meant to assimilate a society and had shortcomings.

Like with many things, the history is dark, complicated, and with any policy that existed for a long time, across a whole country - there were different experiences.

No one story tells us everything. No report shares the full experience of the individuals who went. No commentator today can disprove someone's lived experience with statistics.

The path forward is not to criminalize speech, questions, or debate.

The path forward is empathy for past attendees.
The path forward is truth based on facts.
The path forward is real conversations.
The path forward is to lean into complexity.

If the government criminalizes this, then I will be a criminal for having these conversations.

If I am a criminal by the laws definition, then I am committed to going to jail over this.

Wow. The editorial board of the Globe & Mail just flat out admitted that it screwed up by failing to scrutinize the false 2021 claims that “unmarked graves” had been “confirmed” at Kamloops. It’s taken five years, which is a disgrace, but give them credit for finally saying it

[Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 @ezralevant]

CTV keeps publishing lies from the Canadian Press.

They say a "panel of seven judges" ruled Canada committed "crimes against humanity with genocidal intent".

But they aren't judges. Most aren't even lawyers. They're left-wing activists, funded by the David Suzuki Foundation.

[David Sweet @DavidSweetMP]

An incredible story I regret I didn’t know until today. A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. Proverbs 22:3

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

For 8 years, people at Morgan Stanley called Rick Rescorla paranoid.

Then September 11th proved he was right.

Rick was a decorated Vietnam veteran who became Head of Security for Morgan Stanley at the World Trade Center.

In 1990, he walked through the underground parking garage and quietly warned:

“Someone could park a truck bomb here and bring this whole place down.”

Executives dismissed the concern as excessive.

Then came February 26, 1993.

A truck bomb exploded in the World Trade Center parking garage almost exactly where Rick predicted.

Six people died.
Over 1,000 were injured.

The evacuation was chaos.

Rick watched terrified employees stumble through smoke-filled stairwells for hours with no real preparation.

Afterward, he made a decision.

Morgan Stanley employees would practice evacuation drills every three months.

All 2,700 of them.

No exceptions.

People hated it.

The company occupied floors 44 through 74 of the South Tower.

That’s a very long walk down when you have meetings, deadlines, and places to be.

Employees complained constantly.

“He’s obsessed.”
“This is unnecessary.”
“He’s paranoid.”

Rick didn’t care.

He timed every evacuation.
Studied bottlenecks.
Adjusted routes.
Ran the drills again.

And during the drills, he sang old military songs to keep people calm while they descended the stairwells.

For 8 years, people rolled their eyes at him.

Then came September 11, 2001.

8:46 a.m.

The North Tower was hit.

An announcement in the South Tower told people to remain at their desks because the building was secure.

Rick ignored it.

He grabbed a bullhorn and ordered:

“Everyone out. Now.”

Then he personally directed employees through the stairwells floor by floor.

And he sang.

The same songs people once mocked during drills suddenly became the sound keeping frightened people calm as they escaped.

At 9:03 a.m., the South Tower was struck.

Rick was still inside helping people evacuate.

His coworkers begged him to leave.

He refused.

“As soon as everyone’s out.”

By 9:45 a.m., nearly all 2,700 Morgan Stanley employees had escaped safely.

Rick could have saved himself.

Instead, he turned around and went back up.

Searching for anyone left behind.

Before the tower collapsed, he called his wife one final time.

“If something happens to me, I want you to know you made my life.”

At 9:59 a.m., the South Tower collapsed with Rick still inside.

Final numbers:

Morgan Stanley employees inside that morning:
~2,700

Survived:
~2,687

Most of the 13 lost were in the direct impact zone where no evacuation could have reached them in time.

Rick Rescorla died alongside members of his security team while trying to save others.

But here’s the important part:

Rick didn’t save those people on September 11th.

He saved them for 8 years before it happened.

He saved them every time he forced another evacuation drill.
Every time people mocked him.
Every time he prepared anyway.

The coworkers who thought he was paranoid went home to their families because one man refused to stop taking danger seriously.

Sometimes preparation looks ridiculous until the day it looks like survival.

And sometimes the people everyone dismisses are the only ones truly paying attention.

Rick Rescorla died in the stairwell doing what he had trained for nearly a decade.

And thousands of ordinary lives continued because he never stopped preparing for the day nobody believed would come.

[Jew in a Canoe ✡️🇨🇦 memoir now available! @WillieHandler]

People believe that because 700,000 Palestinians were displaced in an Arab war 80 years ago that today they're entitled to wage massacres, bomb busses, hijack planes, and recruit activists for a global intifada.

People also believe that because 9 million Jews were displaced in WW2 and 6 million of them were exterminated and nearly another million were ethnically cleansed by Arabs, that they're entitled to no self defense or sovereignty and that “their victim card expired."

This is the confluence of the racism of low expectations and raw antisemitism.

Carney and entourage chew through $195,000 worth of airplane food during three international trips.

Carney spent more money on airplane food during three trips than the average family will spend on groceries in a decade.

They’re living the high life and sending you the bill.

[Matt Strauss @strauss_matt]

I am really pleased to see the NDP, the Greens, civil liberties groups, Tech giants like Apple, Google, and Meta, smaller tech firms like @NordVPN, @windscribecom, @signalapp and law professors like @robertdiab and @mgeist come out with objections to Bill C22.

Every word of my original speech has been validated.

It’s rare to see such unified opposition from every corner of civil society, and every corner of the House of Commons.

@ClimateWarrior7 The rise of short term temperatures mean absolutely nothing unless you are a climate alarmist. Climate change is happening all the time and man has nothing to do with it and more taxes won’t change anything!

[🇮🇷 Association of Iranian Royalists @IranRoyalists]

This is Javid Khales, a young conscript in Iran's military. In January 2026, during the regime's brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters, he refused orders to open fire on unarmed civilians. Because of this, he was arrested and has now been sentenced to death.

We call on the international community, governments, human rights organisations, and world leaders to demand Javid Khales' immediate release. A young man who refused to kill his own people is not a criminal. He is a symbol of moral courage and the best of Iran.

An atrociously deep stain on history on the verge of being repeated by Islamic extremism being appeased throughout the Western World.

[Captain Allen @CptAllenHistory]

On This Day — May 17, 1939: Britain Appeased the Arabs & Condemned Europe’s Jews to the Holocaust

As Jews across Europe were being beaten, robbed & deported after Kristallnacht, Britain joined the side of their persecutors by issuing the infamous White Paper of 1939 — one of the most disgraceful acts of appeasement and betrayal in modern history.

First they appeased Hitler at Munich.
Then they appeased the Mufti of Jerusalem and Arab violence.

At the worst possible moment, Britain illegally slammed the last escape door shut on Europe’s Jews. The White Paper drastically restricted Jewish immigration to a trickle and made any further entry subject to Arab consent — which the Arabs had already made clear would be zero. Jewish land purchases were brutally restricted.

This was not policy.
This was betrayal.

Britain had been granted the Mandate for Palestine by the League of Nations via unanimous international treaty specifically to establish a Jewish national home and encourage close Jewish settlement.

The League’s own Mandates Commission reviewed the White Paper and declared it illegal — a clear violation of the Mandate. Britain simply ignored the League and enforced it anyway.

The Jews begged for their lives. Britain gave them a death sentence.

Hundreds of refugee ships were turned away. British forces fired on many. The Struma — carrying 769 Jews, including 70 children — was refused entry and later sunk. One of many such tragedies. Britain’s policy trapped Jews in Europe with nowhere to run as the Holocaust began.

By closing the gates while the Nazis prepared the gas chambers, Britain became complicit in the scale of the systematic, industrialized genocide. At least hundreds of thousands of Jews who could have reached safety in the Land of Israel were instead exterminated.

The British didn’t just fail the Jews.

They actively helped ensure that when the Nazis came for them, there was no place left in the world to which they could escape.

That is why a strong, sovereign Israel is not optional — it is an existential necessity.

Never again will Jews depend on the mercy of empires that appease our enemies and abandon us to slaughter.

Never again will we trust “guarantees” from powers that fold, betray, or look away when it matters most.
