Conservatives love to make fun of Justin Trudeau’s CV

After watching the video embedded in the tweet below, however, one thing conservatives used make fun of – in particular – should perhaps be accorded a bit more respect.  It certainly changed my perspective, big time.


We get letters: this one isn’t from Ezra, by the way

It’s from someone who is claiming to be him – and Ezra doesn’t ever swear, in my experience, and we have now put aside several decades of, er, disagreements.  That said, this letter is a really nice one.  Really friendly.

Why does Canada Post continue to distribute Holocaust denial and white supremacy?

Because they do.  Just this week, in fact.

Here’s an extract from the latest issue of Your Ward News, distributed this week by Canada Post to tens of thousands of homes in East Toronto and beyond:

YWN Holocaust

That is, prima facie, Holocaust denial. That is a criminal offence. Canada has prosecuted such cases in the past, as is well known. Why the Hell is the Trudeau government permitting Canada Post to distribute Holocaust denial?

And that’s not all.  Here’s something from the same issue, in which its editor, James Sears – who has pleaded guilty to sexual assault, and lost his licence to practice medicine for sexually assaulting patients – promotes his association with something called the Canadian Association for Free Expression (CAFE).

CAFE and YWN

CAFE is an organization founded and led by Paul Fromm.  Here’s the Southern Poverty Law Centre on both: “Paul Fromm is a Canadian neo-Nazi based in the Toronto area. He serves as the international director for the white supremacist Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC), a direct descendent of the White Citizens Councils that rabidly opposed school desegregation in the 1950s and 1960s. He formerly hosted a daily radio show on Don Black’s racist web forum, Stormfront. Fromm also lectures frequently in both the United States and Canada and has appeared at annual conferences hosted by the CCC and the white nationalist American Renaissance…

Fromm has founded several organizations, including Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform (C-FAR) in 1976 to oppose multiculturalism and aid to Third World countries. In 1981, he founded the Canadian Association for Free Expression (CAFE ), which works against the Canadian Human Rights Commission to defend anti-Semites, racists and Holocaust deniers from persecution under hate crime and human rights legislation. These two organizations serve as Fromm’s primary platforms.”

Holocaust denial and aggressive promotion of white supremacy and neo-Naziism, right here in Toronto.

Where is the Toronto Police Service on this? Where are our local MPs and MPPs and councillors? Where is the Crown? Where is the Trudeau government? Where is Toronto’s mayor? Where is the outrage?

Well, as I told my friend Bernie Farber over the holidays, me and mine are outraged. And if the powerful people referred to above don’t start taking concrete action, now, they are going to be named and shamed.

And not just by me.


The OPP: incompetent and unethical

Per the below posts about my pal Laura Miller, here and here, looky here! The OPP – into whose conduct a misconduct hearing has been ordered for possible perjury in testimony given about Laura – have a history.

One of Laura’s inquisitors, for example, is OPP Detective Brian Mason. And Mason is the same guy who made all kinds of wild allegations about another political person, former Ottawa Mayor Larry O’Brien.

Remember all that? And O’Brien – after a huge personal expense, and after having to step down temporarily, and after the OPP put him and his family through the frigging grinder – was acquitted. Exonerated. Remember that well, Ontario PCs now stupidly cheering on Mason et al.

The officers of the OPP: they never get their man (or woman). But they’ll sure as Hell try and bankrupt you along the way.


The Globe and Mail publishes story on the inquisition against Laura Miller

Here.

A talented Globe reporter contacted me about my friend Laura Miller.

He asked why I was supporting her. Here’s what I said:

“Why am I supporting her? Four reasons.

One, she’s a friend, and I know her very well. As such, I know that she is a fundamentally decent and honest person, and wholly undeserving of this baseless attack.

Two, political people – of all stripes – too often are held to a different standard. They are too often seen as guilty until proven innocent. It’s noteworthy that political people, of all stripes, are now coming forward publicly as friends and supporters of Laura.

Three, these charges only happened after Laura successfully won an important legal battle against the OPP. They are an out of control, highly politicized police force that decided to pay her back. It is disgusting. It is like something you would see in Putin’s Russia.

Four, no bloody emails were deleted. They can’t be. They are all still on the Ontario government servers in Guelph. The entire basis of the prosecution is predicated on a lie.

Strong words, but I feel strongly about this one. Hope it helps.”


Working for the Clampdown

Listening to the CBC news on the way in with Son Three this morning – and with the world seeming palpably (more) dangerous, here and here and here – we switched to Sirius XM and this came on.

Told my son to listen to the words. Still a tonic for the times.

What are we gonna do now?

Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
‘Cause they’re working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we’re working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech
To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men
To be young believers

The judge said five to ten – but I say double that again
I’m not working for the clampdown
No man born with a living soul
Can be working for the clampdown
Kick over the wall, ’cause government’s to fall
How can you refuse it?
Let fury have the hour, anger can be power
D’you know that you can use it?

The voices in your head are calling
Stop wasting your time, there’s nothing coming
Only a fool would think someone could save you
The men at the factory are old and cunning
You don’t owe nothing, so boy get runnin’
It’s the best years of your life they want to steal

You grow up and you calm down
You’re working for the clampdown
You start wearing the blue and brown
You’re working for the clampdown
So you got someone to boss around
It makes you feel big now
You drift until you brutalize
Make your first kill now

In these days of evil Presidentes
Working for the clampdown
But lately one or two has fully paid their due
For working for the clampdown
Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! (working for the clampdown)
Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong! (working for the clampdown)

Yeah I’m working hard in Harrisburg
Working hard in Petersburg (working for the clampdown, working for the clampdown)
Ha! Gitalong! Gitalong!
Beggin’ to be melted down

And I’ll give away no secrets
