Why bother electing...

...Members of Parliament... when you've got CUPE and Sid Ryan?
The Ontario arm of the Canadian Union of Public Employees announced yesterday it would propose, in a meeting next month, “a ban on Israeli academics doing speaking, teaching or research work at Ontario universities,” if they do not explicitly condemn Israeli action in Gaza.

“Attacking an institution of learning is just beyond the pale,” CUPE Ontario president Sid Ryan said last night. “They deliberately targeted an institution of learning."

"That's what the Nazis did.”
So how exactly does this work, Sid? You're trying to tell us that HAMAS... the guys with the masks & machineguns... and the rocket launchers... those are the good guys?
As usual when Israel fights back at terrorists, Canadian leftists are lining up behind the men in the masks and suicide vests. On this file, Mr. Ryan and his fellow CUPE leaders care about demonizing only one country: the Jewish state.

There’s a name for that kind of bigotry, isn’t there? Remember to speak its name plainly next time you meet a CUPE Ontario employee.

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"Outing Jews in academia, banning them from teaching: that is what the Nazi's did, and they did it early."
And...
"Meanwhile, York University students face losing their entire year as a strike by CUPE moves into its third month."
