"A journalist ought to ask some clarifying questions about these comments, but Mulroney doesn’t. Given that he is an ambassador for a pro-Israel lobby organization, and the West Block no longer seems to have segments focused on Palestine or Israel since Mulroney joined, it appears to CJPME that Mulroney either cannot ask these questions or is unwilling to given these extreme conflicts."

In fact, since October 2025, mainstream media language has increasingly relied on euphemisms that manufacture the appearance of a meaningful ceasefire in Gaza where none exists. Continue reading

Conflating a pro-Palestinian protest chant with antisemitism is neither fair nor accurate; it rests on an exaggerated interpretation presented as fact. This is not fair or balanced journalism. Continue reading

While the article is a factual report of Trump’s tit-for-tat, schoolyard-bully-style leadership and how he is responding to Carney’s latest words and actions, it provides very little context around the “Board of Peace” itself. The article reads more like a colonial gossip column or an American reality-TV show script than a serious political piece. Continue reading

A ceasefire, as defined by Doctors Without Borders, is “an agreement that regulates the cessation of all military activity for a given length of time in a given area.” By definition, a ceasefire implies an end to violence. That is not the reality in Gaza. Continue reading

As your article highlights, Meera (like many other Palestinians) was accepted into a Canadian university, only to have her semester deferred three times because of Israel’s closure of the Rafah crossing that made it impossible for her to complete biometrics and, in turn, meet Canadian immigration requirements.

The article’s description of how activism and protest against Israel’s genocidal violence against the Palestinian people of Gaza and the West Bank - as well as events that relate to Palestine - are being limited and policed on campuses across Canada - is timely and important.  Continue reading

However, the article should have also noted that Iran’s economic crisis did not emerge suddenly. The current economic turmoil has been building since 1979 due to decades of UN, EU and US-led sanctions against Iran. The sanctions have affected nearly every aspect of the Iranian economy with the greatest impact on the middle class. Sanctions on Iran have also frozen Iranian assets and targeted trade, arms sales, and sectors such as energy, finance, aviation, shipping, construction, mining, textiles, automotive and manufacturing.

It is also important to point out that for Palestinians there is no “ceasefire”. This is part of the complacency that Mr. Khan speaks of and which the article feeds into somewhat by focussing on a mental health program while de-emphasizing the widespread carnage and the destruction of so much of Gaza's infrastructure.
