  1. Sounds like the Leftist Cancel Culture is still being used by the Left. The only difference is the Left is being cancelled by the Leftists?

    2. To paraphrase Robespierre the problem with being holy is that there is always someone holier than thou to burn you at the stake

  2. I googled her name, to see what the kerfuffle was about. CBC claims she was punted for a published “controversial statement voicing support for the people of Gaza.”
    Gosh, sounds like she was just being kind, and is being censored for support of “the people.”
    Of course, in typical CBC fashion, they do not repeat her entire statement – only a few bits. The main gist of their article soft pedals what she actually said.
    Because we proles cannot handle the original documents and make up our minds for ourselves.
    I mean, she is a handicapped POC, which means that everything she says is like, totally righteous, Dude!
    But really…..if even the Ontario NDP kick you out….this was not some “let’s be nice” statement she released.

  3. I wonder if anyone’s asked Jagmeet what he thinks about the Ontario NDP kicking her out of caucus?

    2. i believe all provincial dippers are automatically federal dippers so Gagmeet will actually matter . in the smallest of ways .

  4. Not really a surprise. She violated her commitment to the Party to apologize and take down her statements. Doug Ford nailed it when he noted that she had a history of antisemitism. Even wikipedia noted that she labelled Israel an apartheid state. She was arrested for protesting homeless camp evictions in Hamilton.

    In short, during the last election, the NDP vote margin in Hamilton Centre slipped noticeably to the Liberals. So I presume they want to ditch Jama and her antisemitism before she loses the riding entirely to the Liberals.

    1. We’ll see how it works out for Ford in court.
      It is wrong that PC MP’s removed the ability of an opposition member to speak in parliament. Don’t support her but I do support the right of a duly elected member of parliament to speak in parliament. Why doesn’t Ford just shut up all the NDP and Libs? Ford did this to Hillier too when he spoke mean about a Trudeau cabinet minister; I guess Ford meant it when he said he stood “shoulder to shoulder with the Prime Minister”.

      1. Court has nothing to do with it. Under parliamentary rules of procedure, a Canadian parliament can censure any member by simple majority who has offended the rules of the House. This is found under Section 18 of the Constitution Act. Censure does not constitute a vote of non-confidence.

        It’s been done before. Louis Riel was censured by the House for his role in the Red River Rebellion and was expelled from the House regardless of what the voters of his riding thought about it.

        Censure has been done several times in Japan and Australia under their parliamentary rules of procedure.

        1. She served papers on Ford relating to insults that he made outside of parliament.

          Just because the law allows something that is obscene does not make it correct. Often the law is an ass. Regardless, I am not taking legal advice from you or what you copy from wikipedia.

    1. She was kicked out of the NDP caucus and her membership was revoked. This was done about an hour after the House voted to censure. The PCs voted for censure, the Liberals abstained and the NDP and Greens opposed. Marit Stiles had no choice; Jama defied her instruction to retract her statements and apologize. Instead she defied Stiles by keeping up the offensive notices and followed with a lawsuit against the Premier (for which she did not consult her leader.)

      Mutiny in politics is always followed by immediate punishment.

      1. Thanks cgh

        Now will Juma be kicked out of the federal NDP?

        I suppose she’ll join the Green Party. Didn’t Liz May say she took her marching orders from the Palestinians (i.e. Hamas)?

        1. Your guess is as good as mine, Joe. Jughead and his federal coalition have no ethics to speak of. Not that it much matters; the entire NDP caucus of elected members will all be road-kill after the next election.

          As for Lizzie, the less said and written about that drunken hag the better. I’ve actually met that ‘person’ professionally and, trust me on this, she’s even more disagreeable and loathesome in person than as appears in print.

  6. I apologize to all my fellow SDA cult members; but what exactly does an Ontario MPP need to be commenting on a matter of international relations? But then these folks see their position as an opportunity to opine on all matters of perceived or real injustice. What about the violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo? Or Mozambique? Where does it stop? Guess we found one such stopping point

    1. It depends on who is perpetrating the violence. They have a lot more courage to attack those of a religious persuasion that embraces turning the other cheek than they do attacking those that would decapitate them while filming it with a cell phone.

      1. Amen. It’s the same reason Children’s Aid Societies and SPCAs go after Mennonites and Amish.

    4. Yes, too many politicians don’t know to stay in their ‘own lane’. They think their opinions matter in things they have no say in and quite often have no clue about.
      This is even more problematic at the municipal level.

      1. ” Yes, too many politicians don’t know to stay in their ‘own lane’. They think their opinions matter in things they have no say in and quite often have no clue about.

        And worse still when singers or actors do it.

  7. What she said as horrible as it is, is nothing compared to the things Krysten Wong-Tam has said over the years as a Toronto City Councillor, and she is now an Ontario NDP MPP.

    Wong-Tam was huge in getting city funding for the Pride parade committee in spite of questionable financial practises and for arts funding to the founders of Queers Against Israeli Apartheid of which she was closely associated. See that it was Wong Tam who owned their domain and website while a Toronto city councillor:

    1. Oddly, we haven’t heard much from wrong-tam on this very topic…

      Usually she’s the first to leap forward and say something stupid.

    1. Heh. Closest the InDeepers have come in a long time to openly acknowledging what they actually are.

  11. That should get the goat shaggers and their useful idiots down in Toronto all uppity.

    Anyone know the over/under on burning cars?

      1. When the last one happened the police were ordered to shut down the gardiner expressway at park lawn to insure that protesters who got onto the gardiner didn’t get run over, giving them “space” to protest…

        you know, rather than blocking them from getting onto the gardiner, the city decided to inconvenience drivers (Millers’ war on the car never ended)

  12. This crap has been ongoing for 2 weeks. The ndp leader Stiles refused to punt her even tho she defied Stiles orders. If Stiles had a set she would have kicked her out of caucus 2 weeks ago..
