@MarcRyanOnAir From the other side of the river Marc, you are absolutely correct. This might be the modern “shot heard round the world”.

Liberal Americans, democratic supporters, I’m sorry but you’ve lost me. I do t agree with most of what Charlie Kirk had to say, but to kill a man, for saying things you disagree with? And to come out publicly cheering his death? Sorry, but you’re officially the bad guys now.

I think he sums up the land acknowledgement perfectly.

I hope I'm wrong.

But tonight feels like some sort of invisible line has been crossed that we didn't even know was there. The last time I felt like this was 9/11 when it was clear, without knowing the how and the what, that the world was about to change forever.

Like the rules of the game had been permanently altered and there was simply no going to back to the innocent, peaceful past.

I didn't feel like this when an attempt was made on President Trump's life. If I had to rationalise why I didn't, I guess it's because several US Presidents have been shot at and even assassinated. Somehow it was within the realms of the possible, no matter how awful.

But to murder a young father simply for doing debates and mobilising young people to vote for a party that represents half of America? This is something else.

Charlie's death is a tragedy for his wife, his children and his family. I don't pray often. I am praying for them tonight.

But I fear his murder will be a tragedy for all of us in ways we will only understand as time unfolds.

I hope I'm wrong.

Take note:

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney said nothing about the racist slaughtering of Iryna Zarutska and said nothing about the shooting of Charlie Kirk.

However, he does condemn the elimination of the Islamic Jihadists Hamas leadership.

Got it?

Nobody complained about the Temporary Foreign Worker Program when it actually filled real labour gaps—like fisheries or farms. We complain now because it’s being abused, undercutting wages, and leaving young Canadians jobless.

Nobody complained about immigration when it was reasonable and respectful. We complain now because it’s being exploited, driving housing costs through the roof, and overwhelming our hospitals and schools.

Nobody complained about immigration’s role in building our nation. We complain now because the government uses it as a political weapon—branding anyone who questions the numbers as “racist” instead of fixing the system.

It’s not “anti-immigrant” to demand sanity and responsibility from your government. It’s pro-Canadian. If you can’t tell the difference, you’re not debating—you’re gaslighting.

@VividProwess I wish for her to be taken hostage, and treated to Gazan hospitality.

[Dimitris Soudas 🇨🇦⚜️🇬🇷☦️ 13.12.1943 @DimitrisSoudas]

Mohammad Fakih, Member of the Order of Canada, three very simple questions for you:

❓ Is Hamas a terrorist organization?
❓ Should Hamas return the hostages?
❓ Should Hamas surrender and lay down its weapons?

If you are unable to answer YES to all three of those fundamental questions, then sir, you have no right to represent Canadian values, nor to pretend that you understand them.

And let me add three more questions just as simple:

❓ Does Hamas believe that men and women are equal?
❓ Does Hamas believe that people should be free to practice their religion; Christians, Jews, Muslims, and all others without persecution?
❓ Does Hamas believe that gays and lesbians are equal members of society?

If you are unable to answer NO to all three of those questions, then again, sir, you have no right to claim that you speak for Canadian values.

In that case, take that pin off your lapel and the Order of Canada insignia on a neck ribbon you received, put them in an envelope, and send them back.

Canada’s highest honour belongs to those who stand clearly and unequivocally for freedom, equal rights for all citizens regardless of gender, sexual orientation, or religion, and the defeat of terrorism.

P.S. Based on those very same Canadian values, you have every right to be a vocal critic of Israel. You may denounce its government, you may condemn its Prime Minister, you may disagree with its military policies, and you may challenge its treatment of Palestinians. You may accuse Israel of whatever you believe merits condemnation. That is your right in a free and democratic country, and it is a right we must all defend.

But sir, those same Canadian values do not allow you to equivocate, to blur, or to remain silent on my six—very simple six—questions. On these, clarity is not optional.

@KashPrime Hybrid yes. Full electric? No.

[Scott Bell @sbell021]

Happy Friday everyone. Can you smell that in the air? It smells like football. Tonight is the night that high school football programs — as well as college programs that play like high school programs — kick their seasons off all across the country. Good luck to all involved!

Can someone please explain how this doesn’t meet community guidelines, when the article is specifically about foreign worker job subsidies? What did I say wrong? I’m not bashing immigrants, I’m just saying maybe we could give our own youth a hand up?

[South Detroiter 🇨🇦 @M_Basinski]

@TheMossadIL @DrEliDavid Wearing that pin should instantly put you on a no fly list.

When Israel withdrew completely from Gaza in 2005, Gaza had the opportunity to show us what a ‘two-state solution’ would look like.

On October 7, 2023, they showed us.
