Just Not ready

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

On that I would say most certainly.

In general Canada’s political spectrum from Left to Right was NDP/Green - Liberal - Conservative - PPC (if they even exist anymore.

Under Trudeau is was Liberal - NDP/Green - Conservatives.

Well, it won't last long unfortunately - going to have to disagree with you here:

I’m hearing nothing it crickets from the Liberals on that. Likely because they are afraid that standing up for Canadian citizens with a Jewish heritage will be seen as endorsing Israel’s wars. Which is bullshit. If the Libs can endorse and defend Canadian Islamic’s and Sikh’s, despite the atrocities committed by their extremist groups, the acts of terror, the crimes against humanity perpetrated by Muslim governments (most notably right now Iran), then the same should go for Israeli-Canadians. But it doesn’t.
Firstly, I'll say, I will agree with you, that the antisemitism in Canada that is on the rise is very concerning. Hate for some reason is becoming normalized, and it is scary.

But your comparison is just off.

Canada expressed their support in removing the regime in Iran, just not a full-scale war. No one wants that (other than a group of nutjobs in the US).

I'd ask you, why aren't we supporting a regime change in Israel? Just the fact that Netanyahu is still in power there, shows how backwards the thinking is here. He has done WAY more damage to another group of people than any Islamic or Sikh terrorist has.
