I for one enjoyed this episode. I have been aware of the incoherent, dedicated spitefest that is the Canadaland subreddit and it seemed obvious that it wasn’t strictly authentic but it is still surprising (and funny) how parochial, pathetic and petty the reality turned out to be.
What a hateful idiot.
Jewish life in Canada may have “forever changed,” Jesse Brown argues. “I can no longer take for granted that people like me are represented in Canada’s hospitals, schools, newsrooms, and legislatures.”
This is not remotely what I argue.
Working now?
Whoa. They got him.
For @CANADALAND, I interviewed Bob Rae. Hugely informed about the collapsing world order and recently retired, he talks with perfect and terrifying frankness about where we're at. www.canadaland.com/podcast/1298...
Sure!
I just listened to @jessebrown.bsky.social podcast on the Heated Rivalry phenom. No, the straights are not ok.
I learned a LOT from this episode from #CanadaLand
#1294 Oil For Dummies www.canadaland.com/podcast/1294...
"What do you really know about oil? Given that it seems to be driving so much of our geopolitics and fuelling a large part of our economy, what do you need to know about it?"
lol I’m not! @mattlieb.bsky.social told his listeners I probably wouldn’t DARE appear on his show. I emailed him that I’d actually be very glad to. Then Daniel Maté told me he and Matt refuse to have me on unless I first declare that Israel has no right to exist!
Also worth flashing back to Episode 3 of What is Happening Here? where Dave Meslin asserts all the vandalism, school shootings, bomb threats and arrests of terrorists, all demonstrative of a clear spike, only prove how SAFE Canadian Jews are.
I'm not so sure.

Canada has been repeatedly targeted for Bondi-like massacres. @readthemaple.bsky.social publishes lists of Jewish targets they encourage readers to “blame” including children’s schools and summer camps. They call it journalism in the public interest.
This is such a good series.
Jew-hate in Canada is worse than in most other countries. Today, I try to figure out - why here?
Is it our government? Police? Immigration?
Three theories, one conclusion:

On the new episode of What is Happening Here, I sit down with antizionist activist Moez Zaman, who speaks on behalf of a protest that's come to a Jewish neighbourhood over 40 times. www.canadaland.com/podcast/4-in...
Progressive media critic Scott Martin grills me about my new series on antisemitism in Canada on his podcast, The North State. Check it out! podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/a...
As I said at the other place, this is a fascinating listen.
With such a in-depth interview, Meslin is able to explain himself at length, making sense for a bit but ultimately exposing all the underlying contradictions and hypocrisies he's constructed.
My question is not if Jews who protest Israel are disloyal to Israel.
I want to know how their actions impact other Jews here in Canada.
Today I sit down with antizionist Jew, Dave Meslin. www.canadaland.com/podcast/3-as...
In an interview with Jonathan Kay, Canadaland publisher Jesse Brown discusses how an anti-Israel faction within his own subscriber base tried to cancel him after he began speaking out about antisemitism.
