A bill that would have banned the Canadian province of Ontario’s public institutions from doing business with companies which support an anti-Israel movement was shot down Thursday, reports The Toronto Sun.

The bill, co-sponsored by Progressive Conservative MPP Tim Hudak and Liberal MPP Mike Colle, would have prohibited the government from entering into contracts with businesses that support the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement. It was defeated by a vote of 18-39, with largely Liberal and NDP MPPs voting against the measure, according to The Sun.

Hudak challenged the majority government to adopt the measure and accused Liberal MPPs of trying to “play footsie” with the BDS movement. “Look: If somebody said they weren’t going to buy from a business because the owners were gay, you guys would go crazy,” he was quoted as having told the Liberals. .If somebody said they weren’t going to buy from a business because they came from Pakistan or they’re Sikh, people would go nuts. But somehow, because they’re Jewish or from Israel, oh, it’s free speech all of a sudden? Come on.” …

They don’t dare offend all the jihadists that they are importing for fear that something bad might happen.

Ontario (specificallY) has become utterly Islamified. Shootings are at an all time high, petty crime, rape, honor killings... And of course when they talk about the crimes the perps are NEVER identified. Neighborhoods that NEVER had crime problems are in WAY over their heads.

Now the new thing is “sexual assault and other crimes of violence against women... What is wrong with the CANADIAN MALE?”

Canada is sinking fast. Very fast.
This is as humiliating (and revolting) as when the USA Democratic Party refused to say the Pledge of Allegience ...

USA, Canada, UK, much of Europe... are all being SOLD OUT by their ruling elites to the IslamoNazi invasions....
and...unfortunately, the citizens are letting it be done to them.

I’m SO glad I won’t be around to see the ultimate enslavement (and blood in the streets). But, its still so very very very sad to see such sickness taking hold in what were good, decent societies.

Hmmm. Bush Derangement Syndrome is really quite popular in some places, eh?

Plus I had no idea he was jewish. Not that it matters, as long as he is not an islamist that is. :)

At the recent meeting of the Harris County GOP in Houston, Texas, a muslim chairman was elected in spite of the fact that he would not say the pledge to the U.S. flag.

It’s not just Canada, it is everywhere!

You’re still right, many Canadians, the majority are a lost cause. Look at who they voted in. Look at what is allowed to happen in the country.

It’s past time for real men to sort it.

The Muslim enemy is specifically permitted to lie to and mislead us damned infidels if it helps them conquer and subjugate us. So, I’m surprised the Texas infiltrator didn’t take the oath. I guess he saw just how pathetic and stupid his group of Americans are - so he knew he could tell them to shove the American oath up their arses — and get away with it. Like he did. We are indeed in deep doo doo
