This statement is not worthy of a newly elected MP: "I wanted to go over to Liberal headquarters to invite them to participate in our celebration here tonight. The only problem was there were no direct flights from Calgary to Beijing." cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

Just a fantastic idea. Thabks to Lesli Boldt for sharing. #FoodSecurity #hunger #poverty #foodwaste cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Janet Austin Kim Bolan Excellent choice. Selection of one of the best journalists in the province adds to the prestige of the award itself.

With all these Fed. Liberal ministers announcing they won't be running again, the guessing game of who won't be in the new cabinet got a lot easier. #cdnpoli

Great (and funny) thread from Rob Germain about the new (and old) CHEK News logo. What an incredible success story they are and proof there is a lot of demand for good, local, content.

Not like Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩 to miss a news cycle... like the one where this exchange took place after the winning candidate made an ill-advised & provocative statement suggesting the governing party is beholden to the Communist Party of China. Maybe he just felt it was best to look forward.

An underrated part of the problem with B.C. Ferries is that in the last 30 years the province gained an extra 1.5 million people, but the number of sailings and the size of the ships is pretty much what it was in the 1990s

This nonsense is just wrong. Fact check it from any reliable source from any country except Russia. Putin never officially sent troops in (remember the men in green!), so how does he withdraw troops in good faith. #RFK Jr. is ad dangerous as Trump.

We join Ukrainian Canadian Congress in condemning the vandalism against a Canadian-Ukrainian summer camp. Targeting a place young people frequent makes this crime even more despicable.

May today be a time of deep reflection and unity. Today, we also recommit ourselves to the fight against antisemitism, ensuring that prejudice and hatred have no place in our society. Together, let us work towards a future where tolerance, understanding, and respect prevail.

75% of Canadian Jews oppose the judicial overhaul. The largest Jewish institutions in the US, UK, and everywhere else -- including JFNA -- have come out opposed to the judicial overhaul. What on earth are UJA Federation of Greater Toronto Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver Federation CJA waiting for?

CONDOLENCES: Holocaust survivor David “Dugo” Leitner was born in Nyíregyháza, Hungary in 1930. He was just 14 when the Nazis invaded his hometown and sent him and his family to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Dugo was assigned sewage duty and narrowly escaped the gas chamber numerous times,

It is the Day of Commemoration of the Great Upheaval. This day remembers the Acadian Expulsion, which began on this day in 1755. From 1755 to 1764, 11,500 Acadians were deported from the Maritimes. Of those, over 5,000 died. Learn more 👇 canadaehx.com/2022/09/20/the…

Disappointed by this statement from the The Jewish Federations of North America. One of Israel's great response to criticism is that it is a liberal democracy, under the rule of law, w/ an independent judiciary. The present gov't action undermines that & makes defending the Zionist project harder.

Terry Fox would have turned 65 today. Just saying his name still makes hearts fill with pride. More than 40 years after he ran his final steps. 🇨🇦💪🏻

Hello Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation. A coyote was seen in Douglas park. Not sure if someone else reported this, but it is next to a playground for little kids and not a natural habitat for coyotes. I am hoping something can be done to address the situation before someone is hurt. Thanks.
