A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

Prime Minister Carney highlights new measures to combat antisemitism and support Canada’s Jewish community
Main Content
June 1, 2026
Toronto, Ontario
Canada’s fundamental insight is that unity does not require uniformity. We believe our differences are strengths to be nurtured, not risks to be managed. We believe that faith, language, heritage, and tradition are not concessions to citizenship – they are expressions of it.

Today, that nature is being tested, as Canadian Jewish communities face a surge of antisemitism to levels not seen in the post-war period. Last year, over two-thirds of all religion-motivated hate crimes were directed at Jewish Canadians, who make up only 1% of the population. That same scourge is occurring around the world – it plagues Europe, Australia, and the United States.

The shame is global. Our actions must be local. Canada’s new government has introduced six pieces of legislation over the last year to bolster public safety and combat antisemitism and other forms of hatred. Foremost of these, Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act, directly addresses the rise in antisemitism, hate-motivated violence, and the targeting of communities. It significantly strengthens the Criminal Code by creating new offences for intimidation and obstruction at places of worship, schools, community centres, and other institutions used by identifiable communities.

Additionally, through the Canada Centre for Community Engagement and Prevention of Violence, we are advancing work to confront hate online and violent extremism in our communities.

In the Spring Economic Update 2026, we committed an additional $75 million to the Canada Community Security Program (CCSP). The CCSP provides funding for communities at risk of hate-motivated incidents and crimes. It helps provide faith-based institutions with vital security infrastructure, training to respond to hate-motivated incidents, and additional security personnel where needed.

Our govern…

Canadian politicians have been condemning an effigy strung up at a recent pro-Palestine protest. To hear them tell it, it was vile antisemitism: a Jewish person hanging from a noose. But that’s a lie -- one now being used to criminalize protest and vilify protesters. Let’s talk about the truth:

This is an utterly unnecessary editorial that serves no purpose other than to attempt to appease racists who will never be appeased in the first place, at the expense of Indigenous families who lost loved ones.
Globe and Mail editorial board piece starts with the headline:

“There is no reconciliation without truth”

Then it begins:

“Two things can be true, at the same time. Five years after the startling announcement that there were hundreds of possible unmarked graves near a residential school in Kamloops, B.C., there has been no public confirmation of the discovery of any human remains. That is reality, one reality.
Another is this: 3,200 Indigenous children, at least, died at residential schools, according to the 2015 report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Residential school students died at a rate far higher than children in the rest of Canada - a negligence so deep-rooted that it came
"within unpleasant nearness" of manslaughter, according to a government official in the early “
