🚨 Did you miss our latest webinar? Watch it NOW!!! In the months since October 7, antisemitism has surged across Canada and the Western world – on campuses, in the streets, and across media and public institutions. At the same time, there’s an increasing sense that the frameworks we have relied on to understand and combat it are no longer working. What exactly are we confronting? Why does the response so often feel inadequate or misdirected? How can we make a difference – or can we? Is it time to enact a form of strategic abandonment? To explore these questions, we were joined by Bret Stephens, opinion columnist at The New York Times and editor-in-chief of SAPIR. The conversation was moderated by Jonathan Kay, editor, author, and podcaster at Quillette. Known for his thoughtful and probing style, Jonathan guided a discussion that moved beyond the obvious, to examine the deeper cultural, political, and intellectual dynamics at play. Importantly, this discussion examined how these dynamics are unfolding here in Canada. As antisemitism rises, questions are being raised about institutional responses, political will, and the broader implications for social cohesion, democratic norms, and public trust. What does it mean when a society struggles to clearly identify and respond to a form of hatred that has historically been so well understood? Have we truly left ‘the golden age for the Jews’ behind? As policymakers, journalists, and the public grapple with these issues, this webinar will provide critical insight into not only what is happening, but what it means for the future of the Jewish people, public discourse, and the integrity of our institutions.

Recently, the Islamic Republic of Iran was nominated for a position on the UN committee that helps shape policy and direction on human rights, women’s rights, disarmament, and terrorism prevention. And while Canada officially calls Iran a state sponsor of terrorism, we did NOTHING to stop their terror regime from playing a pivotal role in creating policy decisions at the UN.

So Zohran Mamdani thinks “Israel is not a place. It is not a country.” So to Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani, and any Canadian politician who may attempt at repeating this rhetoric, we say this: Israel existed yesterday. It exists today. And it will exist tomorrow. Israel's right to exist is not up for debate. Our Digital Director, (((Rick Firth))) גבריאל חיים 🎗️, rebuts New York's Mayor.

🚨 Police are supposed to protect the public, uphold Canadian values, and keep our streets safe. But for two years, Toronto Police have turned a blind eye as a hostile minority of terrorist supporters take over Toronto’s streets, with almost zero consequences. Our Digital Director, (((Rick Firth))) גבריאל חיים 🎗️, breaks it all down…

On July 13, the The New York Times published a lengthy exposé on Hamas’ tactics in its war with Israel. Among the revelations: Hamas’ use of Gaza civilian infrastructure, how its terrorists use civilian clothing, and perhaps most unsettling of all: its use of children. The question must be asked: When will the Canadian news media start telling the truth about Hamas terrorists? Our Digital Director, (((Rick Firth))) גבריאל חיים 🎗️ digs deeper ⤵️

🚨 This week, HR Canada Charitable published a 100-page report, backed by the same team that released the Asserson Report on the BBC, to examine CBC News' coverage of the Hamas-Israel war over a 20-month period. The results are damning as they showcase an overwhelming narrative imbalance of the Hamas-Israel war, which minimizes and abstracts Israeli and Jewish experiences while privileging Palestinian perspectives and views. Listen to (((Rick Firth))) גבריאל חיים 🎗️ explain and please share! FOR THE FULL REPORT, PLEASE VISIT ________________________- Key Report Findings The HRCCO Report outlines several key findings relating to coverage of the Israel-Hamas war: • Israeli Civilian Erasure: Coverage of Israeli civilian suffering or the Israeli experience in general dropped sharply after December 2023, falling to nearly zero for the remainder of the conflict. • Narrative Imbalance: CBC’s coverage humanizes Palestinian suffering through individualized, emotionally rich portrayals and direct quotation, while Israelis—including hostages—are rendered largely invisible as people, and instead portrayed through impersonal, institutional labels like “Israel” or “IDF forces.” • Distortion of Jewish Perspectives: CBC’s coverage of domestic events (encampments, protests, etc), repeatedly elevated visibility of anti-Zionist Jewish organizations that represent a minority of the Jewish community, granting them disproportionate coverage and implicit authority. In many cases, these groups were featured more prominently than mainstream Jewish organizations. FOR THE FULL REPORT, PLEASE VISIT

🚨 This is Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Palestinian 'activist' who leads the group 'Montreal4Palestine' and who took part in the 'student' anti-Israel walk-out today at Concordia University University. He also harassed and attempted to intimidate a Jewish student on campus, using an appalling homophobic slur, calling him a "F**king F**got". This is unadulterated hate and we encourage everyone to report this incident directly to the Police Montréal hate crimes division:

📽️October 7, 2023 was the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust, when thousands of Hamas terrorists (and ‘civilians’ from Gaza) invaded Israel and carried out a horrific rampage of massacres. The world MUST not forget Hamas’ crimes, nor can they ever be forgiven. ⤵️

Today on CBC Metro Morning, former Ontario Premier Bob Rae, in discussing the recent Toronto Metropolitan University antisemitism report by The Honourable Mary Lou Benotto, attempted to draw an equivalence between the torrent of antisemitism plaguing our post-secondary campuses and alleged "hate" that is directed at Palestinian students. This reflexive pairing must stop. When a report documents antisemitism, address antisemitism directly, without immediately invoking Palestinian students as a counterweight.

🚨 Hamas is just one terrorist group among many; and following a stabbing attack in Germany on August 23 committed by the Islamic State, will the news media finally recognize the threat that radical Islamic terrorism poses globally, or will it continue to find excuses to legitimize & rationalize Hamas’ actions?

CBC’s “Balance” Is a Sham — Especially on Israel. CBC News Editor-in-Chief, Brodie Fenlon, claims that the network offers “360-degree” coverage, but when it comes to Israel, that claim falls flat. CBC routinely amplifies Hamas talking points and quotes anti-Israel extremists. Meanwhile, Israeli voices—official or otherwise—are ignored, downplayed, or outright vilified. This isn’t journalism. It’s narrative manipulation funded by your tax dollars. Our Digital Director, (((Rick Firth))) גבריאל חיים 🎗️, explains ⤵️
