A lot of Jews are sacred because we’re wondering how many people think like this but just haven’t decided to be open about it. How many of our friends think like this? How many of our neighbors? How many in our communities? You can call it paranoia. I’d call it experience.
“Hitler knew how to deal with these people.” Listen to this pro-Palestinian protestor in London. Is he just an anti-Zionist, not an anti-Semite?

Obviously this is a setback for @TobaGrown and the people of MB. That said, @JackLloydLawyer and I are working on the appeal now. But judicial solutions to bad laws are hard to come by. This awful conservative-created prohibition should be lifted by the new @mbndp government.

There are people on both sides of the US culture war on drugs who are using Portugal selectively: one to present decriminalisation as a panacea; the other to pretend that treatment alone will reduce deaths. unherd.com/thepost/blue-stat…

Two-thirds of kids who need surgery at two major Ontario pediatric hospitals are being forced to wait beyond the recommended window because the system is too stretched, which could lead to lifelong problems. This problem started long before the pandemic & has only gotten worse.
