Provinces should reform university funding. thehub.ca/2025/08/12/dav…
Savoie's book documented that Ottawa-based policy advisors (not front line staff) were driving public sector bloat. How has this received so little attention? nationalpost.com/news/politics/…
🚨CAUT behaved as if it were an association responsible for something between Canada’s travel advisory and national terrorism threat websites. nationalpost.com/opinion/terry-… #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #cdnpolitics #CAUT

Hamas must release the hostages, admit full responsibility for their actions, and permanently disband. This is the only path to peace.

With the Trudeau drama in Ottawa, it was easy to miss that BC just increased its annual deficit by >$400 million. The deficit is ~$1650 per person in BC, ~$1550 per person federally. We can't keep doing this. globalnews.ca/news/10923262/…
Does taking a calculated risk lead to better investment returns? Yes it does, according to @SFU economist David Freeman. He recommends "broad bracketing"— carefully considering the connections between choices to make better decisions: ow.ly/UjI750U7kop
This Remembrance Day, I reflect with gratitude on the legacy of Canada’s veterans. To our veterans: you made tremendous sacrifices to fight for the freedoms that I enjoy today. Thank you.
Real Talk? My top post-October 7th lesson is there’s literally no atrocity they can commit that they won’t flip around and blame on the Jews. Which is why they will never engage any point. Just shift to their latest victimhood narrative. Which is often just lies.

Already people are justifying what happened by saying that some Israeli fans took down a Palestinian flag from a house in Amsterdam. Let me make this clear: an Israeli flag hanging outside a house in the centre of Dublin would not stay up for an hour. That would not give…
I spoke at a synagogue last night, and the security was tighter than your average Canadian military base ... and an *inconceivable* level of security for a comparative non-Jewish event. I don't think Canadians appreciate just how present the danger is for their Jewish neighbours
Here's what we know about the Amsterdam pogrom: ➡️Around 3,000 Israeli fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv flew to Amsterdam to watch a game against AFC Ajax. ➡️ An ambush was waiting for them at various points outside the stadium and around the city as they returned by train from the…
I’m so disgusted by what I just witnessed. In Amsterdam, Israelis & Jews leaving a soccer match were beaten unconscious by mobs, thrown in the river, and forced to say “free Palestine.” This is the direct result of normalizing antisemitism post Oct. 7, where the most flagrant…
Completely unacceptable to see violence targeting worshippers at the Hindu Sabha Mandir in Brampton today. All Canadians should be free to practice their faith in peace. Conservatives condemn this violence unequivocally. I will unite our people and end the chaos.
🚨 Joint statement on antisemitism at @UBC CIJA, @CanadianFSWC, @AlliedVoicesIL, @StandWithUsCA , Hillel BC, and @JewishVancouver are concerned with escalating antisemitism at @UBC . We urge the administration to take immediate action to ensure a safe, inclusive campus for…
10 years ago today, an Islamic terrorist wearing a keffiyeh murdered Corporal Nathan Cirillio at our National War Memorial. A decade later, terrorist supporters walk by this cherished landmark every weekend, wearing keffiyehs, calling for the death of Canada. I could never have…
