"The Canadian Museum for Human Rights was the dream of the late Winnipeg media magnate and philanthropist Israel “Izzy” Asper. His family raised millions to build it, and it opened in 2014. His son, David Asper, a prominent Winnipeg lawyer and businessman, says what is unfolding at the institution his father built is a betrayal of everything it was supposed to stand for.
“My dad never had a problem with telling the whole story,” Asper told the Winnipeg Sun. “I think he’d be disgusted at how the telling of this story has become weaponized in the antisemitism game.”" @AsperDavid
It's great to see @KerryLynneFindl taking the time to meet one-on-one with MLAs and hear directly from caucus members about how we move our party forward.
Building a strong team starts with listening, and these conversations are an important step in ensuring we continue to grow, represent the concerns of British Columbians, and present a credible alternative to the NDP.
We have a lot of work ahead of us, but I'm encouraged by the collaborative approach and the focus on winning for the people of British Columbia.
Fair play. But it wasn't just a "mass grave" of 215 corpses in Kamloops that in fact wasn't discovered. The remains of roughly 1300 children were similarly (un)discovered in false reports across Canada in 2021, and it hasn't stopped.
“Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge in You; and in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by.”

The latest polling shows we are leading because British Columbians have had enough of the radical direction this NDP government has taken.
We are moving forward with purpose. We are leading, and we will win. Together we will defeat the NDP’s failed approach and deliver the real results our families and communities deserve.
I am grateful for your support and ready to keep earning it as we build a stronger, more prosperous British Columbia.
Kerry-Lynne Findlay is the most politically savvy person I've seen in British Columbia in my lifetime She is in no hurry to have a standing MLA step down, doesn't need a seat in the Legislature to travel the province, get her point across and let Eby dig himself in deeper
The plan to "phase out" natural gas here in BC at the same time we ramp up exports around the world was always a dumb idea.
Glad to see common sense (belatedly) prevailing.
I want to bang my head on the wall seeing Eby pretend that his govt did good things to lower rent.
The economy is terrible, people are leaving BC because they can’t afford it, and immigration is down.
Next Eby will congratulate himself for watering your gardens if it rains.
In 1976, a Jewish scientist from Brooklyn won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for a discovery that would eventually save hundreds of millions of lives.
His name was Baruch Blumberg. He discovered the Hepatitis B antigen, which led directly to the development of the world's first vaccine proven to prevent cancer. Not treat it. Prevent it. The Hepatitis B vaccine remains the only cancer-preventing vaccine ever created from a viral discovery, and it has protected billions of people from liver cancer worldwide.
Blumberg didn't set out to find a cancer cure. He was studying human genetic variation across populations when he stumbled onto something that changed medicine forever. That curiosity-driven science, that refusal to stay in a narrow lane, is a hallmark of Jewish intellectual tradition.
I was watching the Juno news interview with Kerry-Lynne Findlay and it’s amazing how different her approach is compared to the typical political consultant approach of moderating to win.
KLF is the most politically savvy conservative politician in Canada right now. She showed that on CBC when she immediately called out the journalist for being grossly disingenuous.
I am grateful to Peter Milobar and to every MLA who met with me one on one this week. These conversations have been productive as we prepare for the responsibilities ahead.
Our team is focused and moving forward with purpose. We will defeat the NDP government, end the decay it has brought to our healthcare, our economy, and our communities, and deliver the results British Columbians deserve.
We have important work to do, and I am optimistic about what we can achieve together for our province.
OTD in 1967, forced to fight for her existence, Israel successfully defeated 5 Arab armies (🇪🇬🇱🇧🇯🇴🇸🇾🇮🇶), in one of most breathtaking military victories in history, reuniting Jerusalem & reshaping the future of the Middle East. #6DayWar
