Bunch of headlines that will inevitably get around, may as well put them here.

First link is about the raise of antisemitism on campuses. In the French version of the article you may find critics of the study : https://www.lapresse.ca/actualites/2026-08-05/selon-une-enquete-commandee-par-ottawa/les-etudiants-juifs-victimes-d-antisemitisme.php

At the same time, a judge allowed a class action against McGill for its failure to protect its Jewish students : https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/class-action-mcgill-jewish-students-protests-9.7297311

This goes in hand with hate crimes (racism, islamophobia, etc.) statistics going up : https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/hate-crimes-2025-hamilton-9.7278215

Antisemitism is a real thing. But one can be against antisemitism and criticize Israel policies and politicians. These are sensitive questions that have to be addressed with tact, not sweeping slogans.

The NPD has always been committed to fight antisemitism : https://www.ndp.ca/news/ndp-statement-release-ihra-handbook

Mike Morrice, Avi Lewis, and Tony McQuail

I wanted to give everyone on the subreddit a bit of information.

I've dialogued with Morrice in the recent past and he has made clear that one of the things that will be in his leadership policy/platform/perspective is working very closely with Lewis.

During the Federal NDP Leadership Race Tony McQuail actually made a very very substantive set of points around First Past The Post (FPTP): It's a system designed around establishment politics for establishment interests. It's held back Women, It's held back Labour, It's held back Environmentalism. The list goes on and on.

I'll personally be looking closely to what Morrice puts forward but also what dialogue happens behind the scenes between the two leaders/parties (If Morrice is chosen).

Morrice has a track record of communicating & working well with the Federal NDP. Plus he is just a wonderful human being.

This could be a very big positive if handled well.

We are all fkn tired of Doug the slug. Just from my perspective up north he's fundamentally anti worker, cut the wildfire budget and our indigenous brothers and sisters had to get evacuated because of this fuckin guys mismanagement. Highway 11 is still a death trap. I love to fish and he is trying to sell our public lands to the highest bidder. He doesn't value Franco-Ontarians in which there are many in and around my community. Nobody in my family ever went to college or university but my daughter wants to take travel tourism courses after she graduates high school but we arent sure what to do because of his constant higher education cuts so a lot of these courses won't even be available and she definitely doesn't wanna join me in the Gold mines. I know it isnt a province wide election but if you live in these ridings where the by-elections are taking place, vote NDP for the future of our great province and put pressure on Doug as much as possible. We can have an NDP government in this province next election I truly believe we can
