Canada Decimated By A Trudeau Bomb

"Not everyone associated with the Liberals, fortunately, is willing to debase themselves in front of the world like this. MP Marco Mendicino posted on X: 'I do not support [the UN's] call for Israel to agree to what is, effectively, an unconditional ceasefire'."

"Montreal MP Anthony Housefather similarly registered his displeasure with the vote: 'Hamas, a terrorist organization is entirely responsible for starting a war', he posted."

"A temporary ceasefire had been in place last month, but Hamas began firing rockets into Israel while it was still in effect, and refused to continue releasing hostages."

In an earlier  October 26 UN general assembly vote on a resolution calling for a "humanitarian truce" making no mention of the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, Canada's ambassador to the UN stated Canada would not support the text since Hamas's role was ignored. His amendment to the resolution condemned Hamas, "it names what has to be named. If the proposed amendment is not adopted, the Assembly will not have recognized one of the world's worst terrorist attacks and we will all have to live with that failure", Bob Rae said at that time.

Canada's amendment failed to impress sufficiently, leaving Canada to abstain. Fast forward to Tuesday's UN general assembly, yet another non-binding UN motion calling for an 'immediate humanitarian ceasefire'. Yet again no mention of the Hamas atrocities on October 7, much less that it continues to send rockets into Israel, while its operatives face off with IDF troops in a Gaza ground war, even as its executive leaders issue orders from the security of Turkey and Qatar. The new resolution called for an 'immediate humanitarian ceasefire', once more failing to condemn Hamas. In the event, an Austrian amendment citing Hamas's role in instigating the conflict failed to garner support to pass. But that failed to impress Canada and it voted for the resolution, along with 152 other general assembly members.

This is the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at work, finding it useful to abandon Canada's traditional role in support of a fellow democracy, one which shares the values and much of the culture that is traditionally Canada's. That WAS Canada's traditionally. Under this Liberal government much has gone by the wayside under its post-national, LGBTQ-2-devoted prime minister who has chosen to deep-six further development of Canada's immense riches in natural resources associated with the fossil fuel industry in favour of eschewing energy sources in gas and oil in favour of renewables uncertainties.

A government that has chosen not to delve too deeply in the intrusive threats of the Chinese Communist Party involving itself in stealth interference in Canada's elections, deleterious to Canada's sovereignty. Chinese 'police stations' established in a number of Canadian cities for the purpose of intimidating and threatening Chinese-Canadians who criticize the government in Beijing are allowed free rein, even while Canada is sanctimoniously involved in supporting China's environmental credentials through Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault acting as executive vice-chairman of the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development, an advisory board of the People's Republic of China. Where Canada's official stance is denying development of its own energy resources, it partners with the country whose massive use of coal for energy is responsible for a major proportion of the world's production of carbon dioxide.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to recognize this new Canada. One that abandons its traditional role as a respecter and champion of human rights. A Canada that once stated openly and frequently that it would never abandon its support of the Jewish liberal democracy that is Israel, alone in a sea of autocratic kingdoms, tyrannies and theistic supporters of terrorism. Finally, in this government's abandonment of its allyship with Israel, it faces criticism from within its own caucus where multiple Liberal MPs despaired of Canada's vote at the United Nations, highlighting with clarity the Trudeau government's craven surrender to the domestic votes to be counted on from a large and growing Muslim population.

"If there is a will, there is a way."
"If we can find people who can understand Hamas's thinking and transmit those to Israelis via an internationally respected third party like Canada, I think we can obtain peace."

"Palestinians are also people who want to live. No one wants their sons or daughters to die in a bombardment."

Liberal MP Faycal El-Khoury

This suggestion must rank as the most cynical of sanctimonious yet, since it could not possibly escape anyone's notice that Israel, having had to cope with Palestinian violence and intransigence over multiple attempts at bargaining for peace, is very well versed in the thinking of Palestinian leaders. The Israeli leadership has for generations attempted to appease their Palestinian counterparts with concessions, all to no avail. It was never a two-state 'solution' that the world clamours for, that remained the goal of the Palestinians, but a one-state solution solved by the disappearance of Israel.

The Hamas charter states unequivocally that its purpose for existence is the destruction of Israel. It exists to kill, and has frequently jubilantly stated it loves death and martyrdom, and has groomed Palestinian Gazans to think similarly, prepared to surrender their lives for the murder of Jews. This Liberal MP knows this as well as anyone else with half a brain. But in the Liberal government of Justin Trudeau all is pretense and a show of pious virtue-signalling. This government's expanded immigration intake has gifted Canada with a stealth presence of illiberal, racist infiltration that Trudeau caters to for their vote-appeal.

And in the process, Justin Trudeau has betrayed the Canada that once was, transforming it steadily into a Canada no one can any longer recognizes. Among those dismayed at the transformation are Jews who have lived in this young country for over 260 years, deep in its history, steeped in their own history of Canadian antisemitism before and during the Holocaust when all doors were closed to Jewish refugees, to finally attain a place of equality and inclusion in the following decades, only to see their equality gains shrivel in the past decade, when immigrant/refugee numbers from the Middle East and North Africa imported Jew-hate that is finally fully in bloom threatening the security of Jews in Canada, just as Jews in Israel are facing existential threats, not least from the very institution formed to protect universal human rights.

"Almost three in four Palestinians believe the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas on Israel was correct, and the ensuing Gaza war has lifted support for the Islamist group both there and in the West Bank, a survey from a respected Palestinian polling institute found."

"The Palestinian Center for Policy Survey and Research (PCPSR) findings were published as international alarm grows over the spiralling Palestinian civilian toll in the Israeli counter-offensive against Hamas, now in its third month."

"Seventy-two percent of respondents said they believed the Hamas decision to launch the cross-border rampage in southern Israel was "correct" given its outcome so far, while 22% said it was "incorrect". The remainder were undecided or gave no answer."

"Hamas, which is sworn to Israel's destruction, has ruled Gaza since splitting with the Palestinian Authority (PA) in 2007. The PA exercises limited governance in the West Bank."

Fifty-two percent of Gazans and 85% of West Bank respondents - or 72% of Palestinian respondents overall - voiced satisfaction with the role of Hamas in the war. Only 11% of Palestinian voiced satisfaction with PA President Mahmoud Abbas.

After Canada voted in favour of a UN resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, Canada's Ambassador to the UN Bob Rae said 'we have to try' for a two-state solution. 'The situation on the ground is changing. It's getting worse. We have to respond to that in a humanitarian way,' Rae told Power & Politics.  CBCNews
