This is a lie. A blatant, bald-faced, howling falsehood.
As I demonstrated beyond any doubt months ago.
I'm just trying to be helpful.
BONUS TRACK: In order to appreciate the spectacular dishonesty and ineptitude of the "journalism" coming out of Rebel News, well, here you go. The idiocy is simply mind-numbing, is it not?

You sound surprised. But Ezra is the only "journalist" in Canada I'm aware who's ever been formally chastised in a legal judgement for being a serial liar. That's an achievement of sorts, I suppose.
I like the Frank magazine piece, https://frankmag.ca/2015/05/ezra-levants-soccer-balls/, where Ezra was a liar and a racist all at the same time.
I had missed that one! Thanks for the link!
My all time fave remains the Rebel headline that screamed: "Toronto Star Proposes Order of Canada for Omar Khadr." No link to the story was provided, of course. But when you actually sought it out, you discovered that:
- The "Toronto Star" proposed nothing. It was a reference to a quote from columnist Rick Salutin.
- The actual story began with Rick Saluting saying: "I'm NOT calling for Omar Khadr to get the Order of Canada", and going on to explain that he was nevertheless entitled to compensation for the Harper government's appalling mishandling of his file (an opinion which was of course vindicated by the Supreme Court).
