The Trudeau government will cease future arms exports to Israel even though a motion passed Monday by the House of Commons that called for such action is non-binding, says Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly.

“It is a real thing,” said Joly, speaking to the Star briefly on the morning after a majority of Liberal MPs and cabinet voted in support of a modified NDP resolution that some Jewish groups say undermines Israel’s right to defend itself against Hamas.

The controversial multi-pronged resolution sought to toughen Canada’s stance on the Middle East conflict.

    The fucking polar bears man… you ever seen a polar bear with a minigun strapped to its back? Fucking terrifying.

    Heavily armed polar bears kept us from discovering the northwest passage for centuries - it was always there but those fucking bears kept sinking our ships… and it didn’t help that sailors on a three month trek would run into a polarbear in a vinyl catsuit and be absolutely helpless to resist those dummy thicc polar bear thighs.
