Canadians divided by age and political leanings in support for Hamas​

By Stewart Lewis | Published Oct 07, 2024


A year after the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, a new Leger poll suggests younger and left-wing Canadians are markedly more likely to support Hamas, while older and right-of-centre Canadians favour Israel. The poll was commissioned by the Association for Canadian Studies for the National Post.

The CEO and president of ACS attributes the gulf in opposing views to disparate sources of information about Israel’s war with Hamas. According to Jack Jedwab, “the stark differences in opinion” among respondents who sympathize with Hamas and those who favour Israel can be explained by “the persons and sources of information that younger and older respondents trust when formulating their views.”

Canadian views of Hamas​

According to the poll, only one in 10 Canadians had a positive view of Hamas. Significantly, though, one in five Canadians between the ages of 18 and 24 viewed the terrorist group positively.

Respondents were also asked about which side they supported in the war. Again, younger respondents threw their support behind Hamas — by a two-to-one margin, 21 per cent for Hamas versus 11 per cent for Israel. For people over 55, the equation flipped in favour of Israel to prevail in the conflict: 46 per cent for Israel versus 6 per cent for Hamas.

Like the rest of the country, a majority of Quebecers and Ontarians said they favoured Israel over Hamas. Among Quebecers, 26 per cent of respondents favoured Israel and 10 per cent Hamas. In Ontario, 31 per cent sided with Israel and 7 per cent with Hamas.

Completely unsurprisingly, given the recent protests on university campuses, the poll showed students were more likely to support Hamas (21 per cent) than Israel (16 per cent). Fewer younger Canadians (only 34 per cent) were aware that Hamas has been designated a terrorist organization by the federal government. It was the reverse among senior Canadians (73 per cent). Canada listed Hamas as a terrorist entity in the Canadian Criminal Code almost 20 years ago, in November 2002.

For people working full-time, the numbers are divided 26.9 per cent for Israel and 8.9 per cent for Hamas. Among retirees that split is 44.6 per cent for Israel and 4.6 per cent for Hamas.

When it came to respondents’ political leanings, people on the left end of the spectrum were more inclined to support Hamas (24.6 per cent for Hamas and 19.7 per cent for Israel). Respondents who identified as “right” were more inclined to support Israel (62.9 per cent) versus Hamas (1.9 per cent).

“There is a tendency from left to right on the ideological spectrum to frame the issues differently, in particular, what they believe to be the origins of the conflict and who they ultimately blame for the war,” explains Jedwab.

Maybe the Western world does need to be replaced with an islamic-ccentric world view.

Muslims in general are typically much more devote in the application of their religion than Sunday Christians.

Islamic nations tend to be much more nation first.

Islamic nations tend to fuck up unruly guests in their nations.

Islamic nations don't get wrapped up in all the "Poor migrants, come to us and we will support you" bullshit the West is obsessed with.

Let Western enlightenment die. Let their nations and unique cultural identities die as some multicultural stew, indistinguishable from their neighbors.

Having allowed progressive globalist and corporate interests to take over Western governance, we deserve what happens to us.

*rant off now* Guess I need more coffee, little too cranky this morning.

Vancouver Police probe Oct. 7 rally where ‘death to Canada’ cry went up​

By Chuck Chiang, The Canadian Press | Oct. 8, 2024.

VANCOUVER — Vancouver Police say they are conducting an investigation into a pro-Palestinian protest marking the Oct. 7 anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel where they say speakers expressed "solidarity with terrorist groups."

Police said in a statement Tuesday that they were looking into whether actions at the previous day's protest represented criminal offences.

The rally at the Vancouver Art Gallery, organized by the group Samidoun, included a masked speaker who told the crowd "we are Hezbollah and we are Hamas," and she also led cries of "death to Canada, death to the United States and death to Israel."

Both Hamas and Hezbollah are listed by Public Safety Canada as terrorist entities.

"We have heard from community members, and others, who are deeply offended," Vancouver police said on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.

The police statement came after political leaders in British Columbia and Ottawa condemned actions at the rally, where Canadian flags were also burned.

Police said the Canadian Charter guarantees everyone "fundamental freedom of expression."

But they said the protesters' actions were found by many in the community to be "intolerable, offensive, and unsafe."

"These acts include people burning a Canadian flag, making inflammatory comments about various nations, including our own, and expressing solidarity with terrorist groups," the statement said.

"Burning materials in any crowded place could damage property or endanger others, and anyone who breaks the law is subject to arrest and charges."

Samidoun did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment.

Hundreds applauded the masked speaker at the rally on the anniversary of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel that killed about 1,200 people and triggered a war that has left about 41,000 dead in Gaza, according to the health ministry there.

The comments at the protest drew universal condemnation among federal and provincial politicians, with the federal Conservative Party vowing to add Samidoun to the terrorist entities list if it forms the next Canadian government.

"While Jewish Canadians live in fear, terror groups like Samidoun are free to fund raise and support organizations like Hamas and the (Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine) who seek to kill innocent Jews," federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said in a statement.

"We’ve seen what happens when these groups aren’t taken seriously."

During question period in Parliament Tuesday, Conservative members repeatedly demanded that Samidoun be added to the terrorist list.

"If they took action, they would have listed them already," said Thornhill Conservative MP Melissa Lantsman.

"So, if burning a Canadian flag, if calling for the death of Canadians, if fomenting hate in this country, and most of all being a front for an already-listed terrorist organization is not enough to put them on the list, then what the hell is it going to take for them to ban them?"

Jennifer O'Connell, Parliamentary secretary to the public safety minister, said the government would not follow the Conservatives and "play politics" with the issue.

"When it comes to listing of terrorist entities, the members opposite know full well it is not a political decision," O'Connell said. "It is based on the national security services of this country.

"But it's precisely why the minister had already sent it for an urgent review, understanding that this hate is unacceptable in Canada."

British Columbia NDP Leader David Eby responded in a post on X about the masked woman's speech, saying "this kind of hateful rhetoric is wrong and has no place in our province."

B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad said in a statement that the behaviour is "completely unacceptable."

Rustad, whose provincial Conservatives are in a contest with Eby's NDP in the upcoming B.C. election on Oct. 19, said in his video statement that his party would "crack down on this type of hate" if elected.

Eby said in his post that the province's people "stand together against violence — and the glorification of it. And we strive for peace."

Samidoun director Charlotte Kates was arrested by Vancouver Police last year in a hate-crime investigation, then released on an undertaking to appear in court on Tuesday, but no appearance had been scheduled.

Kates was arrested after praising the Oct. 7 attack as "heroic and brave" in a speech at a rally.

The Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver said in a statement that the conditions of her release had expired because the Crown had yet to file charges against her after her arrest on May 1.

Ezra Shanken, the CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver, said this was unacceptable.

“In the year since the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks, the Jewish community has experienced an escalation in antisemitic hate incidents, including at protests such as those organized by Kates," he said.

"The expiration of her conditions of release will allow her to continue to incite hate and division against the local Jewish community. If we value respect, inclusion, and diversity, the Crown must approve and lay the charges recommended by (Vancouver Police.)”

The B.C. Prosecution Service said the charge assessment process was ongoing and no timeline for its completion was available.

Lol. Supporting Hamas and Hezbollah is illegal but burning a canadian flag is illegal on the grounds of burning material in a public place. Poor Canada. Invariably ends up being pathetic.
 
The liberal left is a disease that corrupts common sense. When a group chants "death to America" or "death to Canada", one day they will act on it. When they claim they "are" with terrorists, why not take them seriously? When the towers dropped on 9/11, Muslim nations that supported the terrorists WERE chanting "Death to America". Plenty of videos of Palestinians in the streets celebrating the death of over 3k innocent people after the event. It looked like after a soccer championship. One day those people are going to get what they are asking for.

You can't make this up. Fucktards on campuses that are gay with blue hair wearing a "I stand with Hamas" shirt. Can you get any more stupid? Some asshole lit his arm on fire wearing a head scarf. What does that do? The left have become what they hated.
