Holocaust · CanadaWhile most Canadians recognize that Holocaust denialism is wrong, commemorations such as Black Ribbon Day are designed deliberately to relativize the Holocaust and even the entirety of the Second World War.

Pierre Poilievre · CanadaWhen Pierre Poilievre talks about homelessness as a public safety issue he brings forward implicit and explicit solutions that simply will not work. Criminalization, forced recovery, and institutionalization will not end homelessness.

Doug Ford · OntarioThroughout Doug Ford’s provincial political career, there has been one constant: an unmatched love for policies concerning alcohol. The Ontario premier’s only conception of his voter base is that of people whose main priority is alcohol.
