The question always comes up: is Mark Carney antisemitic? For a couple months, I’ve been touring the country to give talks about my new book and documentary. The book is called The Hidden Hand: The Information War and the Rise of Antisemitic Propaganda; the documentary is called The Campaign: Disinformation In A Time Of War, both of which should give you an idea what I’ve been talking about. The tour has involved lots of synagogues, community centres, hotel meeting rooms, po

I’m supporting Brad Bradford as Toronto’s mayor. Not a surprise. Most of you who follow me already know that. I’ve been clear about my support for Brad here and on my socials and in the commentary I do. I don’t write about him for Postmedia, because that would be an obvious conflict. But, elsewhere, I think you know where I stand. What you don’t know, perhaps, is why. A few years ago, I made my main address a little farmhouse in Prince Edward County. The main reason for that

It should not be forgotten that, in Montreal this week, a police officer who was a Muslim lost his life trying to save Jewish citizens from a madman. In an Ottawa synagogue today, we had a minute of silence to remember him - and the Jewish man who also lost his life.

Here: "The latest snapshot of Toronto from Mainstreet Research finds a closer contest for Mayor than we previously measured in February 2026. While the two snapshots include different candidates, the main challenger to Olivia Chow has closed the gap. Brad Bradford stood at 17% in the last snapshot that also included former Mayor John Tory, he now sits at almost 38% and within 6 points of Chow. Those who indicated “someone else” were asked who they would support in a forced tw

Were Jews the main targets? We don’t know. But, for months - for 989 days, to be precise, when the atrocities of October 7, 2023 happened - governments have been told that someone would try to kill Jews here in Canada. There have been no shortage of attempts. Schools for little kids shot up - once, twice, thrice at one Jewish school for little kids in Toronto. Jewish businesses and synangogues firebombed - one Vancouver synagogue firebombed while people were still inside, pr

Shoshan Haran in Africa where she did agricultural aid work. A psychological October 7. That’s what some Israelis and Jews are calling this week. Donald Trump’s “deal” with Iran isn’t as bad as some of us predicted - it’s worse. Iran gets billions. It gets to keep its weapons-grade uranium, and control of the Strait of Hormuz. It gets to keep making ballistic missiles, and it gets to keep the fascist Islamist dictatorship that subjugates Iran’s people. And, in particular, it

Musings, here.

Trump lost the war. We don’t know all there is to know, agreed. But, of what we do know, it is clear that Iran has prevailed in its war with Donald Trump’s America. When the conflict started at the end of February, Trump told the world that it was all necessary to: remove the Ayatollahs and Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) from power persuade Iranians to rise up and take control of their country eliminate Iran's nuclear weapons capacity end Iran's support for terror a
