I'm back and I'm already VERY INCENSED about something from the National Post.
This piece, with its shitty clickbait headline attacking the Canadian government's tiny pushback amid an ongoing genocide, is written by the National Post's EDITOR IN CHIEF!!!
He rarely writes articles... (cont)

So I looked into why he's writing now.
Turns out, according to his own articles, he's on a paid trip in Israel -- and the group paying (and the company of "reporters" that appears to be travelling alongside him) is EXTREMELY telling.
The group paying for the trip is the Exigent Foundation.

The group was founded by Larry Maher and Vivian Bercovici. Its board includes only two additional employees: Georganne Burke and Paul Devey.
Again, this is the organization PAYING FOR THE NATIONAL POST'S EDITOR IN CHIEF TO GO TO ISRAEL.
Here are some disgusting posts shared by Bercovici and Burke:

Guess who is posting from all the same spots as the National Post's EIC, with an Exigent co-founder boosting their posts?
Keean Bexte (of Juno "News") and Harrison Faulkner (formerly True North, where he interviewed - jovially - the Proud Boys founder)
Sure looks like the same trip!

If I'm right about them also paying for Keean Bexte and Harrison Faulkner, as the evidence (locations, interview subjects, amplification by an exigent foundation founder) supports...
It seems the National Post top brass has found the class of "journalists" they belong alongside.
Disqualifying.

Anyways, I think it's the foulest indictment of the National Post that I've seen to date:
Its top editor is travelling, to "report" from Israel amid the mass slaughter of Palestinians, on the dime of an organization whose top members post viciously Islamophobic content.

Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?

Doug Ford was a Trump supporter until the tariffs
Doug Ford is channelling Donald Trump when he attacks judges.
Ford and his supporters always recoil at any comparison to the U.S. president’s antics. If you don’t believe me, believe the judges. Our Ontario judges. #Opinion
