Carney's immigration numbers are so high that if he holds a press conference celebrating the creation of 1,000 jobs, it's about enough jobs to cover 16 hours' worth of immigration.

Pour défendre « le Québec ».
Could this man be more petty? My family is from Wakefield, Quebec. There were many who went overseas to defend all of Canada and its value values, not just Quebec.
Aujourd’hui, je me souviens. Je me souviens de celles et ceux qui ont fait l'ultime sacrifice pour défendre le Québec et nos valeurs de paix, de liberté et de démocratie.
Au sein de chacun des conflits impliquant des Québécois depuis le début du XXe siècle, nos héros se sont illustrés. Certains sont plus connus que d’autres, comme Léo Major, les soldats du Royal 22e Régiment ou encore ceux du Régiment de la Chaudière, alors que d’autres, moins connus, sont tombés au combat dans l'anonymat. Tous leurs efforts et leurs sacrifices ont compté également dans cette lutte que nous avons menée collectivement pour la démocratie et la liberté.
Enfin, je pense aussi à ces milliers d'hommes et de femmes qui ont consacré leur vie au service public, en portant l'uniforme. Aux vétérans, quels qu'ils soient, je dis merci au nom de la nation québécoise.
Prenons donc la journée pour nous souvenir de ceux et celles qui ont donné leur vie ou l'ont consacrée à nous défendre, de ceux et celles qui sont revenus marqués physiquement ou psychologiquement, de ceux et celles qui servent actuellement en zone de conflit et des familles de chacun et chacune d’entre eux.

Kinda makes you wonder how artists ever managed to create anything at all before the government “invested” in them. Farley Mowat, Pierre Burton, Robertson Davies. How did they do it?!

Exactly this.
Why does the left need to politicize *everything* like this?
If you want to pursue some weird Gramscian culture war, please do it in in the obscure irrelevance of the academic play pen. Stop wrecking great cultural institutions.
You know what I really want from a national gallery? Pictures. Pictures on walls. That's it.
Maybe a little plaque next to them listing the title, artist, date, and what movement it represents.
What I don't want - and would frankly pay good money to never have to suffer through again - are 'installations' or insufferable woke lectures on how the cis-normative artist used imagery of waterlilies to impose patriarchal ideas of femininity onto unsuspecting female members of his audience, or any other similar nonsense.
@NationalGallery - just let us view the pictures in peace, for God's sake.

“In the beginning, Turtle Island was queer.”
Anishinaabe scholar and retired justice Harry LaForme and his wife Janice LaForme, a lawyer, issued a report on an exhibition at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights titled: “Palestine Uprooted: Nakba, Past and Present”.
Their reports concludes that the Nakba exhibition is “dangerously one-sided and divisive” and presents a “distorted and inaccurate history.”
And the museum itself presents as quite problematic.
“Throughout the galleries and exhibits reviewed, the authors found a troubling lack of fairness and balance, along with a willingness to co-opt Indigenous culture and tradition for ideological purposes."

The RCMP give a politician a security detail because of (checks notes) a newspaper column? Are we getting that right, @torontostar?
That sounds like unadulterated bullshit. We'd call on you to prove it, but you won't, because it's made-up.

This story is bollocks. Let me tell you why.
Some years ago, I called the PPC leader Bernier a racist and an antisemite. He sued me for defamation.
I fought back. In the course of doing so, I was approached by a young man: Angelo Isidouro. You were right to say what you said, he told me; I staffed Bernier and he was. Angelo said he wanted to testify for me.
I told him he was taking a risk - some conservatives may not like it, I said. Angelo simply said he opposed bigotry and wanted to help.
In the end, Bernier's lawsuit was thrown out by a Superior Court judge and he was ordered to pay me $135,000. It was a historic legal decision that still stands.
I won, in large part, because of Angelo Isidouro.
Anyone who suggests he's a bigot is a liar and a fool and should fuck right off.

Shuv Majumdar is right @AnitaAnandMP … you didn’t do the right thing back in April … glad you did so this week, but the damage was done and you stayed silent on our behalf … that is unacceptable. Please explain yourself.
