Canada's economy grew 0.2 per cent in May, Statistics Canada said on Wednesday, a tick higher than what economists were expecting. The manufacturing sector drove growth in May for the second consecutive month, Statistics Canada said, while the mining, quarrying and oil and gas extracting sector contracted by 0.6 per cent. However, the retail sector was the largest drag on economic growth in May. It has also forecast that annualized GDP growth in the second quarter will come out to 2.2 per cent, well beyond the 1.5 per cent growth estimated by the Bank of Canada during its July interest rate meeting. DiCapua had written in an early morning note that high interest rates were pinching the economy, particularly impacting the retail sector.

On July 26, CBC News broadcast a reporter by journalist Margaret Evans chronicling the preservation of the “cultural heritage” of Palestinians, highlighted by a new exhibit on display at the Palestinian History Museum in Ramallah. That’s certainly what the Palestinian History Museum itself attempts to do. It would be hard to find a more appropriate metaphor for the Palestinian propensity to erase the Jewish history and connection to the land and claim it for their own.

CBC News would perhaps do well to take a page from the Israel Museum and look to a message of inclusivity, coexistence and hope, rather than continuing to fan the flames of anti-Israel hatred and Palestinian victimhood.
