NOVANEWS Last week, the Aga Khan, (left) received a $30 million grant from the Canadian government for a "global center to promote diversity." None of the Opposition parties bothered to ask why the Canadian government gave this tidy sum to one of the richest men on the planet.  by David Livingstone The prominence of the Aga Khan family may be attributed to their long-term involvement in the  Occult and Illuminati-sponsored Muslim terrorism. The Aga Khan is the hereditary leader of 15 million Ismaili Muslims who trace their descent directly to the notorious Assassins of Islam.  Many believe that the Knights Templars learned their occult doctrines form the Assassins during the Crusades.  In fact, according to Scottish Rite Freemasonry, the Templars "rescued" a number of "Eastern mystics...

NOVANEWS The University of Ottawa, a publicly funded institution, is financing a private lawsuit against an outspoken university critic and blogger.  The university tried to hide its sponsorship of this repressive action, but it was exposed through a Freedom of Information request and court action.  On July 24, the judge assigned to the lawsuit withdrew himself after he was accused of conflict of interest due to links he had with the university and the lawfirm representing it.  This statement is based on the personal observations and experience of two former student members of the U of O Senate.  Its purpose is to draw attention to this injustice taking place in the Ontario Superior Court and to call for donations to the Defendant’s Legal Defense Fund.  Denis Rancourt is defending himself...

NOVANEWS By Dana Gabriel   Global Research Over the past several months, the U.S.-Canada Beyond the Border action plan has taken significant steps forward. This includes efforts to modernize and expand infrastructure at key land ports. In a move that went largely unnoticed, both countries also recently agreed on a statement of privacy principles that will guide information sharing across the border. Meanwhile, a separate joint initiative has been announced which addresses energy and environmental issues. President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Stephen Harper launched the U.S.-Canada Clean Energy Dialogue (CED) in 2009 to promote new ways to reduce greenhouse gases and combat climate change. The CED Action Plan II released last month, outlines the next phase of activitie...

NOVANEWS By Seriously Free Speech Israel’s siege of Gaza has made it a “closed zone” – no access, no exit, cut off from the world. By attempting to shut down criticism of Israel’s practices, Canadian supporters of the government of Israel are creating another “closed zone” in Canada – in which criticism, open debate, and freedom of expression will not be allowed. Who is doing this? Quietly, without authority from Parliament, an all-party group which calls itself the Canadian Parliamentary Coalition to Combat Antisemitism (CPCCA) has been formed to investigate antisemitism in Canada. Not antisemitism as it is traditionally understood: discrimination against or denial of the right of Jews to live as equal members of society. (Members of this Coalition are well aware that traditional antisem...

NOVANEWS   Father launches hunger strike, says discrimination against non-Jews led him to file refugee claim ed note–if this were a Muslim family, fearing deportation back to one of those HORRIBLE MOOZLIM countries, it would be headline news all over the JMSM. HOWEVER, when it is a Gentile family fearing deportation back to Israel after personally experiencing violence and racism against them for their being of the ‘goysiche’ variety, it gets as little play as possible.   Times of Israel For Ilan and Irit Brovman, fear of being deported to Israel, where they claim they suffered from discrimination because they are not Jewish, has led them to seek sanctuary in a Canadian church. The couple, along with their two children — Tom, 8, and Katrin, 5 –  have been living for more than a...

NOVANEWS On the Need for a Royal Commission on Electoral Practices in Canada by Anthony J. Hall   The declining credibility of elections in many countries is creating a crisis of legitimacy severing bonds of trust that once linked citizens to the institutions that govern us. Without credible proof that those governing on our behalf really have earned our supportive consent in free and fair elections, one of humanity’s greatest innovations is rendered null and void. The implications of this breakdown put in doubt one of the West’s premier claims, namely that its core polities are beacons of democracy worthy of emulation. The democratic deficit arising from episodes of electoral malfeasance makes a mockery of the West’s frequent assertions that its expansionary enterprises are beni...

NOVANEWS Haaretz Canada imposed fresh sanctions on Syria on Tuesday, banning all dealings with the central bank and seven cabinet ministers as part of a campaign to stop President Bashar Assad’s crackdown against rebels. The measures also prohibit the provision or acquisition of financial or other related services to or from anyone in Syria or those acting on Syria’s behalf. Canada also announced on Monday that it was closing its embassy in Syria. Britain, the United States and France also have already closed their embassies in the country. Canada has been advising its citizens to leave for some time. “The continuing, appalling violence perpetrated by the Assad regime on the people of Syria compels us to again tighten the vice on those responsible … Our message remains clear: Assad must...

NOVANEWS  By Kevin Barrett, Joshua Blakeney, and Jim Fetzer The "collapse" was not a collapse   After considering mixed feedback from prominent members of the 9/11 Truth community, we have decided to revise our proposal for The Vancouver Hearings, to be held at Vancouver’s Denman Theater on 15-17 June 2012. Upon reflection, we believe that our preliminary proposal, which called The Toronto Hearings “acutely disappointing,” was a mistake. Our aim in holding the Vancouver Hearings is not to belittle The Toronto Hearings. On the contrary, we appreciate the efforts of those who organized The Toronto Hearings and agree that the overall evidence presented there does amount to a convincing case against the US government’s version of what happened on 9/11. The purpose of The Vancouver Hearings i...

 NOVANEWS by Stephen Lendman   On June 3, 2008, former Canadian politician/UN ambassador/pro-Israeli flack Allan Rock became U of O president. His administration’s marked by secrecy, political censorship, abuse of students and faculty, and repudiation of fundamental university values. The Canadian Civil Liberties Association reprimanded him for banning an Israeli Apartheid Week poster. He then pressured a student union president into distancing the organization from the student-run Ontario Public Interest Research Group (OPIRG). It opposes repressive Israeli practices as do growing millions. In September 2008, Rock got the Executive Committee of the Board of Governors (EBOG) to suspend tenured Professor Denis Rancourt. In December, he recommended dismissing him and barring him from c...
