I cannot understand the increasingly 'mean streak' shown by Canada's national government. The most recent example was their arbitrary cut off of Kairos - a Catholic service agency. A high level Cabinet Minister accused the organization of being anti-semitic.. only because it criticized certain policies of the Israeli government.
The current government recently went so far as to distribute literature in a number of areas of Canada accusing our main opposition party of being anti-semitic.
This bunch in power don't seem to understand one can criticize government all over the world but not get accused of being anti this or that group of people.
As a semite I can criticize policies of the Israeli government... but in the current federal government's eyes, that makes me an anti-semite.. an accustion that is totally and completely wrong!!
Mr. Kenney.. you don't speak for me.. you and your colleagues should restore KAIROS funding
