Another outrageous attack targeting Jewish-owned businesses in Toronto.
This has to stop becoming the new normal. Those responsible must be identified, arrested, and prosecuted.
Toronto's Jewish community deserves more than statements after the fact. They deserve leaders who will confront antisemitism head-on and ensure there are real consequences for those who spread hate.
In honour of Harperpalooza this week (aka 20th anniversary of the @stephenharper government) here are some pics from the archives:
1. PMSH addressing the war room team after the 2004 debate in Ottawa. I’m to the right. You can also spy a young @DennisJMatthews lurking in the back. :)
2. 2018 interview I did with him @NEWSTALK1010 about his new book and life after politics.
3. Rallying outside the Ottawa debate venue during the 2008 election.
4. Magnet I still have from the 2004 leadership when I volunteered on the Harper campaign phone banking Friday nights (yes, I was that cool).
@TheHubCanada@sjmuir I worked in the Office of the Foreign Minister in September 2007 when Canada took the difficult stand of voting against UNDRIP at the United Nations. It was the right decision. It was an unfashionable position for many years, but that appears to be shifting.

#RyersonRestored
Like #SirJohnA, Egerton Ryerson’s historical record has been maligned in Canada’s History Wars. While many recognize his name, Ryerson’s background and achievements are not well known, and hence, are easily manipulated. 1/
NP View: Hate in the streets fuelled by Trudeau's 'post-national' vision of Canada. "We have the moral authority to enforce, for example, a “no antisemitism allowed” standard among those who want to live here, so perhaps we should. This could involve screening potential newcomers for Canadian values — an idea that has garnered support in the past — or enhancing the government’s ability to deport those who clearly don’t share our values." https://t.co/hCZ9awEUr7 via @nationalpost
“Twenty-five years after its initial publication, Who Killed Canadian History? is an odd thing: a pessimistic book by a jaded author that was probably too optimistic.”
Before McLean's shipping containers, nearly all the world's cargo was transported in an mix of barrels, boxes, bags, crates, and drums.
A typical ship contained as many as 200,000 individual pieces of cargo that were loaded by hand. #HeroesOfProgress

Come to think of it, before we get carried away with all that "In Victory: Magnanimity" stuff, may I repeat one more time, with pride and gusto, our slogan and our mission: Never Trump.
With his remarks from the White House tonight, the President disrespected every single American who figured out a way to safely vote amid a pandemic that has taken 235,000 lives. Not to mention those who are dutifully counting that vote. Absolutely shameful. Yet so predictable.
Canada is faring far better than the U.S.
Within our borders, Ontario has one of the lowest number of active cases per 100,000 at 51. Alberta has 110 active cases per 100,000 with Quebec reporting 106. BC has 47 active cases per 100,000.
