This week, the BC Conservative MLA for Vancouver Quilchena reposted a National Post article about the former residential school site in Kamloops, adding a comment that the number of confirmed child burials at the site is zero. The article is about James Heller who pushed the Law Society of B.C. to change its training material to say there were "potentially" burial sites at the former residential school in Kamloops — instead of more definitive language. Brodie is only one of a number of BC Conservative candidates who has questioned the history of residential school abuse. To discuss these comments and their impact on truth and reconciliation, we speak with Sean Carleton, professor of history and Indigenous studies at the University of Manitoba.

Also, I review (the very few) justice issues being mentioned by the main parties in the Nova Scotia election campaign. Nationally, there were two stories - one is the release of the report by Special Interlocutor for Residential School Unmarked Graves, Kimberly Murray, who says Canada is 'obligated' to criminalize residential school denialism. The last story I cover this week relates to medical assistance in dying. Quebec is going to allow advance requests, while in British Columbia, an injunction was granted against a woman with mental health struggles, who was approved for MAiD.

Alarming Ties Between Project 2025 and Election Denialism Raise Concerns for Democratic Integrity

Project 2025: The Ominous Specter

Project 2025 has been a focal point of concern as it draws increasing scrutiny from various media outlets and watchdog organizations. According to a report by KALWA Media Matters, Project 2025 is linked to individuals and groups that have been involved in election denialism. This connection sets off alarm bells regarding the motivations and actions of those steering the project.The report suggests that the architects of Project 2025 may have plans to influence electoral outcomes in a manner that could undermine democratic processes. At the heart of these concerns is the project's association with figures and entities that previously supported claims denying the legitimacy of election results. The implications of these associations are significant, especially considering the potential impact on future elections and political landscapes.Project 2025 is reportedly a collective effort among several organizations and individuals aiming to advance specific political agendas. While exact details of their strategies remain somewhat opaque, the unease stems from their previous involvement in election-related controversies. The report by KALWA Media Matters indicates that Project 2025's plans might involve leveraging their network to exert influence over electoral mechanisms.One of the central themes within the narrative surrounding Project 2025 is the possible re-emergence of Donald Trump in the political sphere. With Trump potentially vying for another term in office, the project could serve as a vehicle to fortify his candidacy and bolster efforts to subvert electoral integrity should he face challenges similar to those in the past.The examination by KALWA Media Matters also highlights how the tactics and alliances formed under Project 2025 appear to be designed for comprehensive electoral engagement. This engagement might not only focus on federal elections but also extend to state and local levels, aiming for widely coordinated outcomes that reflect their political objectives.Critics argue that the modus operandi of those affiliated with Project 2025 lacks transparency and seems reminiscent of past strategies that undermine confidence in the electoral process. The constant thread of election denialism, seen previously in attempts to reject certified outcomes, appears to continue, albeit in potentially more structured and strategic forms.To counter these concerns, watchdog groups and advocates for electoral integrity urge increased vigilance and proactive measures to safeguard against potential disruptions. Strengthening election security, ensuring transparency, and fostering public trust are pivotal in counteracting any adverse impacts Project 2025 might have on democratic institutions.As discussions and investigations into Project 2025 progress, the broader discourse on election security and integrity is likely to intensify. The unfolding of these events will undoubtedly shape the political narrative in the coming years, raising questions about the role of organized entities in democratic societies and their influence on the rights and liberties of voters.

The roots of the moon landing conspiracy theories trace back to a fundamental distrust in government. This sentiment was particularly inflamed during the 1960s and 70s, amidst the chilling winds of the Cold War and the fiery protests against the Vietnam War. The United States was a nation divided, its citizens wrestling with political disillusionment. In such an environment, the narrative that the moon landing could be a grand deception orchestrated by the U.S. government to assert dominance in the space race against the Soviet Union found fertile ground.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring one key issue currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World. This week, host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaks with legal expert Dr. Cochav Elkayam-Levy. October 7 was not the first time that rape was weaponized in warfare. If history teaches anything, it also won't be the last. Almost immediately following Hamas's murderous onslaught on southern Israel, humanitarian law expert Elkayam-Levy established and now heads The Civil Commission on Oct. 7th Crimes by Hamas against Women and Children. Elkayam-Levy is a Sophie Davis Post-Doctoral Fellow at Hebrew University's Leonard Davis Institute's program on Gender, Conflict Resolution and addition to lecturing at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and at Reichman University, she, along with her staff, has poured over thousands of pieces of documentation that chronicle Hamas's systemic use of rape and sexual violence against women. The silence and lack of condemnation of this violence from international bodies, including the 30-year-old United Nations office of the Special Rapporteur on violence against women, has been deafening to Israeli women. But domestically, Elkayam-Levy was recently awarded the Israel Prize, the highest honor the state of Israel bestows, as well as other honors. Borschel-Dan visited the headquarters of the Civil Commission on Oct. 7th Crimes by Hamas against Women and Children for a wide-ranging conversation. Listener discretion is advised. So this week, we ask Dr. Cochav Elkayam-Levy, what matters now? What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
