Off the Record

This week, House Speaker Greg Fergus censored Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre for a day because Poilievre accused Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly of appeasing supporters of Hamas. Unsurprisingly, Joly demanded an apology – but Canadians just need to look at the government’s actions since the deadly October 7th attack to judge for themselves if the Trudeau government has abandoned Canada’s traditional pro-Israel stance to appease terrorist sympathizers for political purposes. The leader of Hamas certainly thinks so – he even thanked Canada for its public stance.

Plus, the BC Conservatives seem to be gaining momentum as voters head to the polls in a little over a week. Leader John Rustad has proposed policies that are resonating with voters, including a push to deport pro-Hamas extremists and lifting the de facto ban on developing nuclear energy.

And it’s becoming increasingly clear that it wasn’t climate change that caused the Jasper wildfire, but rather massive incompetence and negligence on the part of the federal government.
