Jews everywhere understand that this is the omnipresent reality of being Jewish now. There's a reason my synagogue built a 10-foot tall fence around the whole building and has armed security guards.

The fact that a man with a Muslim-sounding name disarmed the attacker is a nice story, but it doesn’t undo the fact that there are some serious divisions in society worldwide.

Whatever the background of the shooters, there is no question that they were targeting Jews simply for being Jewish.
Ahmed al Ahmed, 43, has been identified as the man who disarmed one of the Sydney attackers.

Ahmed was shot by the second shooter, who was firing from a bridge. He suffered 2 gunshot wounds and is undergoing surgery.

In today's news, people are really disappointed Mark Carney didn't poke the rabid racoon with a stick.

If we could just harness the angst over forest access in the Maritimes and direct it towards lowering GHG emissions, we'd have this climate change thing solved in a few days.

people get mad at me when I say this but it's a Serious Problem for bluesky's long-term viability that the userbase actively tries to bully people they don't like off here
The problem is that Bluesky is still a niche platform at 1.3 Mil active users per day globally. Getting your boss to say yes to making an account and dedicating the time and effort to maintaining it means they need to see positives for that investment. A middle finger isn’t a good return.

Everything else aside, Poilievre just isn't someone I'd trust to watch my drink let alone my country.

Wonder how you lose your democracy? Proactively giving legitimacy to peddlers of disinformation is definitely near the top of the list.

CANADIAN REPORTER: Trump's tone on Canada has shifted. He stopped talking about Canada becoming the 51st state.

LEAVITT: I would reject that the president's position on Canada has shifted. Perhaps he just hasn't been asked about it. He believes Canadians would benefit from becoming the 51st state.

Poilievre was asked this morning what, concretely, he would do to end "woke culture" in the public service and the military and he pointed to two things:

1. The Liberal government's "woke criminal justice agenda."
2. The Liberal government's "woke agenda on spending."

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney:

"It's easy to be negative about everything when you've never fixed anything...Negative slogans aren't solutions...Division isn't strength. Negativity won't win a trade war...Negativity won't bring down the price of groceries."

Everything you need to know about Pierre Polievre's MAGA MAPLE.
They have no policies just smears.
I have known Poilievre for 21 years.
He is unfit for public office.

I'm of two minds on the media's little spat with Carney over financial disclosures. 1) I'm a big transparency booster. The more, the better. 2) The media is *objectively* holding Carney to a standard to which it has never held any of his predecessors. He's not entirely wrong to be annoyed by this.
