Kinsella had a valid point

Better late than never, I suppose.

Quote:

“Despite his inflammatory word choice (“classist” would have been more accurate), many Torontonians realized Kinsella had a valid point. Tory later amended his transit plan to include the already planned Sheppard and Finch LRTs, which would serve those neighbourhoods.”

I stand by what I said: John Tory – he who belonged for years to a private golf course that didn’t admit Jews or minorities, and about which he did precisely nothing for years – had a transit plan that treated one part of the city more equally than others.

You can ask if that is divisive, or ask if it is impartial, or ask if it is segregationist. To me, it is was and is.

    Tory’s Jewish heritage was a well-kept secret.

    Instead of criticizing Mayor Tory, look into your own Liberal backyard and read what Ezra Levant has to say in this Sun article about Justin Trudeau and our ISIS mission:

    “Six Canadian CF-18s have been there for a week, and they are already in combat, and Canada has refuelling and reconnaissance planes too. Six hundred Canadian Forces personnel are supporting the mission. But instead of quiet pride in our forces, Trudeau has criticism.”

      I’m not aware of any criticism by the opposition of anything related to what the Canadian Forces have done. They have followed the orders of the government, which is thier job.

      The opposition have only criticized the decision to send them, which is Harper’s decision.
