Integrated national security efforts that include more stringent security screening should weed out violent white supremacists in Canadian military

It is shameful to have these false patriots stain the honourable, exemplary, and selfless work the men and women of the Canadian military perform in the service of the public and Canada.

Minister of National Defence Harjit Sajjan, pictured April 30, 2020, at the National Press Theatre in Ottawa. Individuals found to support neo-Nazi, and violent white supremacist organizations should have their security clearance, reliability, secret or top-secret clearance revoked. Reservists and contractors should also be cleared for reliability and stripped of their clearance and contracts should it be found they are involved with these violent groups. It is that simple, writes Huda Mukbil. The Hill Times photograph by Andrew Meade

WAGE isn’t in a funding crisis—it has a design flaw

OpinionBY REBECCA BAILEY, SARAH HASHEM
  • Women and Gender Equality Canada's latest funding forecast has sparked panic, but for all the wrong reasons. The gender equity sector must zoom out, stop reacting to fear, and push for a complete overhaul of how funding is structured.
