We read the op-ed piece by Chrystia Freeland in the NY Times and what her approach would be to Trump's tarrifs. She believes if you stand up to a bully, they back down. Mark Carney, who is running the country believes the exact opposite. He believes the tactic of ignoring Trump will work much better, ergo we are like mushrooms, being kept entirely in the dark when it comes to the negotiations. And now these two opposite modes of dealing with Trump are being battled out pu

A few months ago, we wrote about Pierre Poilievre and how we felt he was never going to be able to beat Carney in an election. We received major pushback from those who very rightly said that from October 7 until the present day, Poilievre has supported the Jews in Canada, often the lone voice to do so. Unlike Carney who has basically thrown us under the bus. Given that, we are going to reveal the elephant in the room: Yes, he supports the Jews in Canada but what good has it

The bureaucrats who run the province of Quebec are either very short on brains or they are very short on brains. The new train called the REM which loosely translated means Metropolitan Express Network is anything but express. In fact, it is turning out to be so unreliable and now dangerous, that we are guessing people are going to stop using it. This past Friday a train lost power in the middle of two stations, a very common occurance. According to their media spokesperson,

Last week Harley Finkelstein, president of Shopify and proud, loud Jew, was at the startupfest in Montreal when a known antisemite, who has been jailed and fined for his filth, managed to infiltrate the event. He had a cameraman with him as he tried to berate Finkelstein with disgusting antisemitic slurs. Nobody bit. In fact, he was roundly booed out the door. What emerged from that altercation was a personal revelation. A wakeup call. Following that event, Finkelstein gave

There was a yearly event in Montreal yesterday which was was abruptly stopped by one of the most antisemitic losers around. We won't mention his name as we will not give him a second of notoriety on social media. He is one of those who thrives on an unproductive, useless life. Shopify hosts a two-day event called startupfest. It functions like a music festival for entrepreneurs, featuring immersive experiences like the "Startupfest Shop," where emerging brands can showcase a

When is it time to leave? This question has been brought up in many articles, podcasts and around many Shabbos tables. For Jews in Canada, the answer is not simple. Antisemitism has become the darling of protesters. Before that, it was climate change. Before that it was the death of George Floyd and police brutality. Then it was calls to defund the police. There were protests over COVID restrictions and vaccine mandates. There were demonstrations over indigenous issues, pipel

Tomorrow evening from 7:00 - 8:00 pm there will be a memorial for Michel Mizrahi of blessed memory. It will take place exactly where he was shot, in the Westbury complex. If everything goes well, the Mizrahi family who are sitting shiva in Israel will be on a large screen so the entire community can offer their condolences. It is absolutely amazing how this shooting has completely dropped off the news radar. It's like it never happened. Unfortunately, there are many questions

Yesterday, Montreal officially entered world of active-shooter violence. Reports indicate that a rapid fire rifle was involved, capable of firing rounds at a devastating rate. For the family whose husband, father, and grandfather was caught in the crossfire and lost his life, this is an unspeakable tragedy. To his family and those who knew Michel ben Shlomo Mizrachi, obm, we extend our deepest, heartfelt condolences. The death of the police officer, a father with a young chi

One of our esteemed readers who recently made aliyah to Israel sent us a heads-up that our prime minister made it to the Jerusalem post. His recent press conference making a mockery of antisemitism in Canada clearly did not go unnoticed Israeli officials nor frankly to the rest of the world. The author of the article, former Montrealer Gil Troy, first described the open antisemitism rampant throughout McGill, on the streets of Montreal, at the convocation of McGill, and all

A Blanche reader sent us an email that was breathtaking in its bias. After opening it, she simply sat there, mouth agape. What she received was a chilling example of institutionalized antisemitism masquerading as legitimacy. Carleton University in Ottawa has what many other universities have - A Golden Key International Honor Society. It is an academic honour society that invites students who rank in the top 15% of their faculty based on cumulative GPA. Membership is by invit

If nothing else, we know with certainty that people read Blanche. We made an error in our last post. Doug Ellin is not running for mayor of LA. It is Spencer Pratt. Thank you to all the readers who pointed out our mistake. We greatly appreciate your feedback. *** Mark Carney not only threw Canadian Jews under the bus, he then proceeded to roll over all of us. He best beware as the photo above alludes to. Eventually, this will come back to bite him. What was most galling about

We watched Mark Carney's entire speech on antisemitism. Before he spoke however, we were subjected to the cantor of the synagogue apologizing to the indigenous people for being on their land. Seriously? Unless people are planning to uproot an entire city, it's time to stop the apology tour. It was interesting to note who was not at this very anticipated speech. Our MP Anthony Housefather was nowhere to be seen. Instead, Carney paraded out Evan Solomon and acknowledged Rachel

One has to ask two things about the bureaucrats who run Quebec. Firstly, are they so provincial, so small minded that they don't know what is happening in the rest of the world. Secondly, one has to wonder aloud when or if people in Quebec's government aka those same bureaucrats actually speak to each other. From the news today, it has become abundantly clear that quebec's politicians are not team players. A few months ago the case was made to bring the headquarters of the De

Last week a group of losers started an antisemitic, Jew-hating protest in downtown Montreal. Here, the police do zero to stop these people. In this case however, the protesters either got bored or tired and decided to stop in front of a Greek restaurant to continue their antisemitic rants and blocked the entrance. Never mind there were no Jews in sight. They were paid to protest and they did their job. What did the police do? What they always do. Nothing but stand around watc

In the early morning hours of December 4, 2024, the CEO of United Healthcare, Brian Thompson, was gunned down in cold blood, shot in the back as he left his hotel. He didn't have a chance. The person who did it has become a folk hero to what can only be termed people who have completely lost their way in society. The willingness to excuse murder because the victim represented an unpopular industry is a grotesque sign of how far some people have lost their moral bearings. The

In the past few days, the NY Times, one of the most widely read and supposedly most respected newspapers in the world (the word respected has to be taken with a grain of salt) has published what can only be termed a sick fantasy. In the past few days they have accused Israel of training dogs to sexually abuse palestinians. What has the world come to and how much do people actually hate Jews for such sewage to be considered journalism? This has nothing to do with researching

There's an adage that goes like this: Don't mess with the Jews. You won't have a happy ending. Of late, Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Great Britain is the beneficiary of this reality. Once upon a time he was a friend of Israel or at least he pretended to be. Either someone got to him or he felt that there are more votes for him in the muslim community than the Jewish community, but his stance has drastically changed. As such, he is now fighting for his political life. Right

Although we try to keep up with all the news, there are things that get past us. Mercifully we have readers who make sure we know the lay of the land. As such, we learned that our new governor general Madam Louis Arbour is in the same anti-zionist, aka antisemitic, aka Israel is the aggressor club as Mark Carney. Our tipoff should have been her being in bed with the UN. The raison d'etre of that useless organization is to always paint Israel as the big bad ogre. And Madam Ar

Blanche has some highly intelligent, thoughtful and insightful readers. As such we were sent an article written by Peter Shurman. His name may ring a bell as he was once a the general manager at CJAD. He moved to Ontario decades ago and was a member of the Ontario conservative party where he won the riding of Thornhill in 2007. Mr. Shurman wrote an article about Mark Carney and summed up the essence of we have been trying to say for the past year. He first posits that when Ca

There was a rather jarring article in today's National Post written by Beryl Wajsman. In essence, a consortium of Jew hater groups have banded together to try to strip Jewish day schools, mainly in Toronto of their charitable status. Why? They are accusing these schools of being supportive of the Israeli military. And therefore? Now ask who this 'esteemed' group of haters is approaching to strip the schools of their charitable status. None other than the CRA - the Canada Rev
