The CBC et al have courteously minimized Mark Carney’s father Robert’s long career as an Indian day school principal and superintendent of native schooling programs – presumably to help the Liberal Leader more easily sluff off this “problematic” family history. At PJ Media, David Solway notes the elder Carney’s role was far greater than generally reported – as was his unwavering belief in the rightness of what he was doing – and that this should actually be celebrated.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
