NEW: Today is the national day of mourning for workers killed and injured on the job. While a solemn day to honour fallen workers, it is also a time to reaffirm our commitment to workplace health and safety, writes @AdamDKKing1. readthemaple.com/today-is-the-n…
“The Israel lobby is the primary reason for U.S. and Canadian government support of Israel.” This is the statement that is forming the basis of the next dialogue series at The Maple, where we have two leftists with opposing views on a subject have a back and forth. Stay tuned.
NEW: Independent Toronto MP Kevin Vuong is rebranding as a Zionist primarily in an attempt to keep his troubled political career alive, argues @DavideMastracci. readthemaple.com/exposing-kevin…
The article starts by explaining how Vuong became an MP, which includes the most shameful choice I’ve seen a Canadian politician make in an election. Then it explains what his rebrand has been. From there, it makes a detailed case for why it’s happening. readthemaple.com/exposing-kevin…
NEW: Prior to October 7, I knew independent Toronto MP Kevin Vuong as a scumbag. I now know him as a Zionist scumbag. In my latest, I expose what I believe to be the reason behind Vuong’s pathetic rebrand attempt. readthemaple.com/exposing-kevin…
NEW: @AdamDKKing1 debunks the latest pro-scab article at the National Post, which he says is “cartoonishly bad, even by the standards of the genre.” readthemaple.com/debunking-the-…
Pro-Israel group CIJA, which is currently suing the Canadian government to try to force it to cut UNRWA funding, has lobbied at least 56% of MPs. Here are the 10 MPs they have lobbied most. readthemaple.com/here-are-the-1…
NEW: Nearly 60 per cent of current MPs have been lobbied by CIJA, but these 10, from all three major parties, stand out, writes @DavideMastracci. readthemaple.com/here-are-the-1…
NEW: CIJA has lobbied nearly 60% of all MPs. Some of these MPs, however, have spent a lot more time with CIJA than others. Here are the 10 MPs most lobbied by CIJA. readthemaple.com/here-are-the-1…
NEW: Zionist charities in Canada are paying student journalists to write and share “pro-Israel content” as well as to monitor and report their campus media, writes @DavideMastracci. readthemaple.com/charities-are-…
NEW: A pair of Zionist charities in Canada is paying post-secondary students, including journalists, to write and share “pro-Israel content.” Some of these students have also appeared at the centre of mainstream media’s ‘antisemitism on campus’ coverage. readthemaple.com/charities-are-…
NEW: Prominent South Africans and the Nelson Mandela Foundation told @DavideMastracci there is “no evidence” Irwin Cotler was a member of Nelson Mandela’s legal team or that he was arrested in South Africa for giving a pro-Mandela speech. readthemaple.com/no-evidence-fo…
Statements from these figures and organizations contradict the established political and media narrative on Cotler in Canada, and support the findings of a past Maple article. But they also go beyond it, and challenge another key part of Cotler’s story. readthemaple.com/no-evidence-fo…
NEW: The Nelson Mandela Foundation, a South African government rep, two prominent South African lawyers (including one who represented Mandela), a senior archivist and others all told me they contest claims made about Irwin Cotler’s relation to Mandela. readthemaple.com/no-evidence-fo…
NEW: Card-check union certification In B.C. has been a major success, writes @AdamDKKing1, noting that the number of union applications grew by 48.8 per cent in 2023 from the previous year due in part to the new model. readthemaple.com/card-check-uni…
21 years ago this week, the United States launched its invasion of Iraq. Canada (officially) decided not to join the war, but almost every major Canadian media outlet except the Toronto Star published an editorial saying Jean Chrétien made the wrong choice readthemaple.com/20-years-ago-c…
NEW: Yesterday’s debate on the NDP’s Palestine motion contained lies and false and troubling statements from several major parties. @DavideMastracci debunks them in this new article. readthemaple.com/debunking-parl…
NEW: I debunked the cross-partisan pro-Israel propaganda in Parliament yesterday that came from the Conservatives, Liberals and NDP. readthemaple.com/debunking-parl…
NEW: I’ve put together a timeline of anti-Palestinian violence and threats in Canada since October 7. Pro-Israeli protesters have managed to avoid mass political scrutiny despite these sorts of alleged criminal actions. readthemaple.com/a-timeline-of-…
