    Originally published: Mondoweiss on May 1, 2024 (more by Mondoweiss)  |

    Liberal MP Anthony Housefather is clamoring for the violent suppression of McGill students protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza. It is an odious escalation in the Israel lobby’s bid to suppress democracy at the prestigious university.

    Canadian interference in Ukrainian affairs reaches epic proportions

    Originally published: Canadian Dimension on February 9, 2022 (more by Canadian Dimension)  |

    If there was an award for the world’s most hypocritical political party, the Liberal Party of Canada would be frontrunners to take the prize.

    Military knows it looks bad but works with neo-Nazis anyway

    Originally published: Yves Engler Blog on November 9, 2021 (more by Yves Engler Blog)

    The ‘cancel culture’ of Israel lobby in Canada

    Originally published: Palestine Chronicle on October 22, 2021 (more by Palestine Chronicle)  |

    The list of good people who have been put through the “cancel culture” ringer by the Israel lobby is long. Hundreds, probably thousands, of Canadians have lost jobs and contracts or simply been tormented by the Israel lobby for supporting Palestinians. 

  • Former Green Party leader Annamie Paul addresses supporters, September 17, 2021.

    Annamie Paul’s perspective has overwhelmingly shaped coverage of the dramatic and bitter conflict within the Green Party.

  • Make Canada Great Again

    Canada supports fascism

    Originally published: Internationalist 360° on October 4, 2021 (more by Internationalist 360°)

    While there is no one-size-fits-all definition, fascistic groups are generally violent, authoritarian and racist. They may claim to support freedom or the poor, but largely defend the rich and concentrated power.

    Andy Merrifield
