NDP parliamentary leader @donvdavies.bsky.social says National Post column targeting NDP leader @avilewis.ca is "appalling, irresponsible and likely criminal" The column calls for Lewis to be dealt with by way of ancient "Jewish law" while invoking loaded language used by Yitzhak Rabin's assassin

Don Davies v @DonDavies • 1h This is appalling, irresponsible and likely criminal. Threatening and inciting others to remove a Canadian political leader for his political views is outrageous. Both the author and the National Post must retract, apologize and reverse this message at once. Samira Mohyeddin /jau Absolutely diabolical. National Post puts a bullseye on Avi Lewis through the rabid ramblings of Yoni Goldstein who invokes Halakhah and Leviticus on how to deal with Jews. Writing Lewis "presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community" & other Jews are "duty- bound to = NATIONAL POST Yoni Goldstein: Jewish law tells us how to deal with Avi Lewis His Yom Kippur message was indefensible By Yoni Goldstein, Special to National Post Published Sep 29, 2026 Last updated 17 hours ago 4 minute read • 190 Comments

S..

@SMohyeddin • 10h = NATIONAL POST None of this applies, however, when a Jewish person presents a clear and present danger to the Jewish community. When that happens, Jewish thought is much more forceful: you must prevent the perpetrator from causing harm. Jewish law developed two character sketches to describe such scenarios. The first is known as a "mosar" — a Jewish person who informs to oppressive authorities, potentially leading to the imprisonment, torture or death of community members. The second, called a "rodef," refers to a Jew who is actively pursuing another with the intent to harm or kill them. In both scenarios, the law is clear that a jew is duty-bound to step in. Protecting the community and its members is the most important thing. 244

The strongest point Lewis makes here is that Carney is “out on a limb here” No one asked voters if they wanted to privatize airports. No one was talking about this. It’s unclear Liberal MPs are even on board with this It feels like a random pet issue Carney is pushing on his own out of the blue

Mark Carney is privatizing airports and allowing foreign investors (mainly American) to buy up the country. Slashing corporate tax rates and offering up vast amounts of resources for mining and extraction corporations. The country is for sale. Liberal voters were duped.

UST IN: Canada has announced to reduce marginal effective tax rate on new business investment to 6.4% from 13%, the lowest among the G7, and half the rate in the US, per the Globe and Mail

The changes will take effect right away and remain permanent.

Mark Carney on airport privatization: "We will seek private investment through long-term concessions to operate Canada's four largest airports, following best practice in other countries. The Government of Canada will retain ownership of the underlying land and assets."

@KatusaResearch
Canada handed 300 of the world's biggest investors a 66-page pitchbook this week

▪️167 projects worth about US$425 billion

▪️63 of them are MINES

That's more than the clean energy, oil and gas, and data-centre chapters combined.

"The oil and gas industry has played the Fed. Gov. like a fiddle,” says Gretchen Fitzgerald. “Weakening industrial carbon pricing should never have been on the table in this negotiation – the only winners here are oil and gas corporations.” Full Release: www.sierraclub.ca/polling-indu... #CDNpoli

New Polling Shows Industrial Carbon Pricing Should be Stronger, Pipeline Should Not be Federally Financed, and Albertans Agree

Media Release: For Immediate Release, Wednesday May 27th, 2026

New polling from Abacus Data shows Canadians are more than twice as likely to support increasing Alberta’s industrial carbon price to $130 per tonne by 2030 (47%) than delaying this increase until 2040 (22%). In Alberta, where new rules for carbon pollution are set to take hold under a deal between the federal and provincial governments, more people (43%) supported that 2030 target than a delay to 2040 (33%).

This information comes as the Federal Government failed to negotiate a $130 per tonne by 2030 price and instead gave in to a severely weakened and delayed Industrial Carbon Price – that could “decimate” vital green industries and jobs according to Canada’s Clean50 founder. Canada’s national industrial carbon price was set to rise to $170 per tonne by 2030. Instead, Alberta’s will be delayed to 2040 and the minimum carbon price only reaching $110 as experts from the International Institute on Sustainable Development have confirmed.

The polling also shows that – if a pipeline to the west coast of BC were to go ahead – Canadians say it should be financed privately (39%), with only 28% saying the federal government should finance it. Again, even in Alberta 42% percent say it should be financed privately, while only 34% say it should be financed federally. This also holds true across the political spectrum of voters.

Additionally, the polling indicates in a broader sense strong support for government regulations to limit oil and gas corporations’ greenhouse gas emissions. 7 out of 10 Canadians support such regulations. Alberta also sees a strong majority (62%) in favour of such regulations and only 20% opposed.
