André Pratte National Post, May 21, 2022 “… there are good reasons to challenge the need for Bill 96’s bureaucratic assault on the speaking of English in Québec. One of those reasons is that this attack is based on a false premise.” Combined with several provisions of Bill 96, recent events raise a legitimate concern […]
Tom Mulcair Montreal Gazette, May 24, 2022 “… the holy chaos he’s about to unleash will be completely beyond his control.” The first big chapter of the Bill 96 saga has come to an end with the bill’s adoption by the National Assembly. By a linguistic quirk, on the Anglo side, it will always be called Bill […]
Tristin Hopper National Post, May 11, 2022 “Bill 96 requires employers to take “reasonable measures” to ensure that non-French languages are spoken in the workplace as little as humanly possible.” The Quebec National Assembly is entering the final stretch of passing Bill 96, a controversial law set to dramatically expand the province’s ability to mandate the use of […]
Alena Matushina Macleans, May 25, 2022 “My biggest fear right now is that I will be going through this whole application for permanent residency, which takes about a year, and I’ll pay over a thousand dollars for it, only to then apply for jobs and get a refusal letter because I can’t speak fluent French. […]

‘ Menachem Begin and Neil Rogachevsky Mosaic, May 14, 2020 “And the day came that we redeemed Jerusalem, and we have dug into its dirt, and we have walked the path and so we have seen the Gates of Ḥuldah [that lead into the Temple].” Before World War II, Brisk (a/k/a Brest or Brest-Litovsk), […]
Richard L. Cravatts Fathom Journal, April 2020 “Al-Buraq Wall, of course, is the Arabic name for the Western Wall and Al-Buraq plaza refers to the entire 35-acre Temple Mount. Statements like these reveal that Muslim authorities do not consider any part of the Temple Mount to be Jewish, nor should Jews even be allowed near or on […]
Meir Y. Soloveichik Commentary Magazine, June 2020 All this reveals that the questions of Jewish presence on, and the right to pray at, the Temple Mount are bound up with the very issue of Israel’s right to exist itself. On May 6, 2022, Israel’s Independence Day, the Temple Mount was opened to Jews for the […]
Matti Friedman Jewish Review of Books, Spring 2022 “It’s impossible to understand the city without grasping that Jerusalem has existed at the center of Jewish consciousness since Rome was a village on the Tiber and that it has that role in no other religion.” In 1867, the Scottish adventurer John MacGregor descended a rope ladder […]

Christina Buttons Quillette, May 17, 2022 “The narrative we sold to the masses in late 2020 was that “white supremacy” was the greatest threat that America was facing, and that Republicans were the “party of white supremacy.” At the time, I believed this wholeheartedly. When a beloved cousin died from COVID, I became even more […]
Barton Swaim WSJ, May 13, 2022 “They regard differing outlooks as deviations from reality that can only cause trouble for no good reason. They believe their critics, who look at the same facts but draw different conclusions, aren’t simply mistaken but irrational, corrupt or both.” The preoccupation with “misinformation” and “disinformation” on the part of […]
Victor Davis Hanson Toronto Sun, May 12, 2022 “… all these catastrophes are self-induced. They are choices, not fate.” Americans are now entering uncharted, revolutionary territory. They may witness things over the next five months that once would have seemed unimaginable. Until the Ukrainian conflict, we had never witnessed a major land war inside Europe […]
John O. McGinnis City Journal, Spring 2022 “… those who train the next generation of lawyers, the law professors, are overwhelmingly left-wing, favoring all sorts of foolish innovations—from abolition of prisons to putting the Federal Reserve in charge of setting prices for core goods.” The transformation of the legal profession marks a fundamental change in […]
