James Pew and his colleagues at Wokewatch have their fingers on the pulse of Canadian society.
He is a proud cultural Christian, friend of the Jewish people and Israel and above all, that rare thing-
a Canadian patriot
Israel Apartheid Week was created at the University of Toronto in 2005. The Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel was and is a big part of IAW activism, which is now embraced at over 250 campuses worldwide. It’s a heartbreaking and shameful fact that this hateful anti-Semiticmovement began, and continues to operate, in Canada.I think it is a disgrace that so many Canadian elites in government, education and media, are completely out-to-lunch on this issue. The ignorance and the apathy can be shocking. Although it is mixed with misplaced compassion, the clamour and belligerence coming from the leftist activist class has been drowning out sensible voices, while unapologetically amplifying anti-Semitic hatred. Things could not be more un-Canadian regarding pro-Palestinian activism and the threatening posture it takes toward Canadian Jews. However, this whole mess in many ways is a thoroughly Canadian problem. It was our Canadian elites who decided Anglo Canada needed to be Multicultural Canada, and later those same elites who provided safe harbour for Jew hating Islamic extremists, and their anti-Israel terror-supporting NGOs. The University of Toronto created Israel Apartheid Week and continues to call for boycott, divestment, and sanctions against a vital Canadian ally. Canada must clean up its own mess, and the longer it doesn’t, the more disgraceful it will appear on the world stage.

This nonsense comes from people ignoring their fellow citizens and ‘thinking globally’. Why in the world should Palestinian concerns be a Canadian issue between citizens?
