Talk:Ezra Levant

message: I've just edited the article in several places. I probably made some mistakes, so please feel free to improve my work. Here's a few points for discussion:
* I improved some of the refs to use  etc. There are a lot more left to fix. CWC 15:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: * Now that we cite Kady O'Malley's blog post, we probably should drop the Associated Press news item. CWC 15:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

text: *I said the speech "was canceled at the last minute, apparently by its organizers, ...". AFAICT, it was Levant and other organizers who canceled it, based on what the police and Coulter's bodyguards told them; I think Kady O'Malley makes that fairly clear. So maybe we should drop the word "apparently". Comments? CWC 15:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  March 2010 

message: Until recently, the "Recent activities" section of the article said that:
:Levant is currently one of the main figures of the Canadian culture war, and writes frequently on the subject, while also appearing on CBC to discuss the topic.
User  deleted it with no explanation (which is perfectly OK, since it was that account's first edit). I mention it here in case anyone thinks we should say something about Mr Levant and the Canadian culture war. Any comments? Cheers, CWC 17:11, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: lol = culture warrior. There is a reason this guys is getting screwed, and that's because he lies, and doesn't do proper research, pretends to be a journalist, and is a joke. The culture war likely fits into the hate crime section. perhaps "culture war" is how levant justifies his racism.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnieHall (talk • contribs) 01:47, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The Brian Topp mockery of Levant's position is clearly documented by the Globe and Mail as originating with a Sun media source.  Topp is a major NDP figure and may be the Leader of the Opposition in Canada soon, so his position is notable.
:what does this have to do with ethical landmines? also, your link was fruitless. and who doesn't mock levant. by spouting of racist banter, misinformation, and telling any company to f. his mother is like begging for mockery.AnieHall (talk) 01:57, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Ethical landmines" 

message: The fact that the "ethical oil" terminology/propaganda has been ignored or refuted outside Canada is also extremely significant and notable.  Removing the link to The Globe article referencing the Guardian is unwarranted. 
I've read this article. It states that several British media sources do not agree with the term "ethical oil." Using this to reach the conclusion that ""the "ethical oil" terminology/propaganda has been ignored or refuted outside Canada" (in particular, your use of the term propaganda) is ridiculous.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 03:50, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Ethical oil" abroad 

message: Very simple : Wikipedia is not a soapbox to push an agenda. It's fairly clear that  is not here to build an encyclopedia but to push their specific viewpoint, possibly with an undeclared conflict of interest, therefore they are urged to stay away from this article which they obviously feel strongly about. While additions may certainly be factual, they may also be undue. For example, "Kathryn Marshall has ties to the PMO" has nothing to do on the encyclopedic biography of Ezra Levant, nor does her husband's alleged activities. If you want to prove a point and/or "shame" a living person, please do so elsewhere than on Wikipedia. CharlieEchoTango (contact) 05:12, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a platform for investigative journalism, commentary or the promotion of conspiracy theories.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 00:22, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Recent POV editing

message: While Levant definitely has a history as a Reform and Canadian Alliance activist I don't see any sourcing for his being active on behalf of the Conservative Party of Canada. I don't doubt he's a member and a supporter but I think at this point he's more of a small "c" conservative ideologue than a big C Conservative Party activist ie he doesn't work for the Conservative Party or any MPs, he isn't a Conservative Party volunteer (at least not visibly) and doesn't represent the Conservative Party formally or informally in the media and occasionally he takes issue with the Conservatives for allegedly not being conservative enough. I think the lede might be more accurate to refer to him as a "conservative" activist. Vale of Glamorgan (talk) 22:31, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Conservative or conservative activist? 

message: Macleans published Ezra Levant: Love him or hate him, he keeps winning, a "profile of the right-wing gadfly who loves to offend"
by Jonathon Gatehouse on 12 January 2013. It probably would be a good source for the article, as long as we note the author's obvious and predictable hostility to the subject. CWC 06:54, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  2013 Macleans profile 

message: In the interest of open dialogue, here are the rationale behind my recently reverted changes: 1) The huffington post source does not contain the direct quotation it is being used to support, unlike the journalism project source 2) The title of the section is POV, and not at all neutral 3) The section is already over-long, and needs to be reduced in length per WP:UNDUE. The fact that there was a protest against him which said insulting things about him isn't all that relevant to the main facts of the case which are already detailed at length. If you insist on including it, we should then cut the length of the rest. Peregrine981 (talk) 08:31, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The "Idle no More' Protest seems to be quite unconnected to the comments about the Roma, so I'm going to go ahead and split it off. However, there are major sourcing problems now. ie. it says "Levant stated he supports abolishing the Indian act as outdated and apartheid." but htis does not appear in the article. It says "Levant was suppressed with chanting and rapid accusations invoking the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, holocaust," but this is not mentioned. We are also using the "Sun" newspapers as a source about a protest against the Sun. That seems like a somewhat dubious choice. Also, you have changed the source for the earlier quote for no apparent reason, without bothering to format it properly. Why? And lastly, why do you want to call it "Alleged Controversial remarks"? That is a super-ambiguous and banal title, which simultaneously manages to bias the reader against Levant right off the bat, while not actually imparting any useful information. See WP:CRITS. Peregrine981 (talk) 19:31, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Roma Section 

message: Some strong allegations in this article on CBC and Greenpeace press release.
...Greenpeace Canada is asking Elections Canada to investigate whether the Ethical Oil Institute is colluding with the Conservative Party in order to get around rules that limit donations to political parties.  Keith Stewart, the climate and energy campaigner for Greenpeace, has written a letter to the commissioner of Canada Elections complaining that Ethical Oil is using money raised from individuals and companies to attack government critics.  As well, the letter alleges, "mirrored messaging" is going on between Ethical Oil spokespeople and Conservative cabinet ministers.  The complaint also alleges "multiple crossovers" between Ethical Oil spokespeople and Ottawa ministerial staff.  Stewart repeated the complaints at a press conference in Ottawa...

thread_title:  Connections to the Conservative Party 

message: Since this has hit the fan, I think that it should be included in the main article. However, I can't find a place in the existing sections to slip it in.
Summary: on the eve of Remembrance Day, Levant wrote a column and did a monologue claiming that the Greater Essex County District School Board had notified its schools to grant exemptions to Muslims from Remembrance Day ceremonies. He then launches into a rant that Muslims are traitors, bigots, terrorists, etc. Sources: http://www.torontosun.com/2014/11/10/lest-only-some-of-us-forget & http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/video/featured/prime-time/867432237001/objecting-to-remembrance-day/3884869891001
He further started a petition site: http://www.loveitorleave.ca
Of course, Ezra totally made this up: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/books-and-media/ezra-levant-wrongly-accuses-ontario-school-board-of-allowing-exemptions-for-muslim-students-on-remembrance-day/article21537390/ , http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/ontario-students-exempt-from-remembrance-day-ceremonies-1.2831167 & http://windsor.ctvnews.ca/windsor-essex-school-board-responds-to-toronto-sun-s-remembrance-day-commentary-1.2097307
Given that this hasn't made it to the CRTC or CBSC, it can't be added to those sections (yet)  — Preceding comment added by BordenRhodes whose signature was swallowed by HTML gremlins (talk • contribs) 18:33, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I think we should not include this, per WP:DENY, unless a lot more sources make a big deal about it. We don't need to be a signal booster for Levant's nonsense. Ivanvector (talk) 23:49, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: People keep reverting my changes to this article. Here's what I did.
It said that Ezra believed in the "Eurabia conspiracy theory". I removed that because there are were NO sources to suggest/confirm that he believes in a "conspiracy theory" of an organised group of people trying to Islamise the West. The source that was given only showed that Ezra had used the WORD "Eurabia" - and as the Wikipedia page for "Eurabia" describes, the word is merely a neologism which refers to the area of Europe and Arabia. Using the word does not necessarily imply, or confirm, belief in an organised conspiracy of people trying to Islamise the West.
He clearly used the term to draw attention to the fact of increasing immigration from the Arabic world to Europe. Does this imply/confirm that he believes a CONSPIRACY is at work to achieve this? No it doesn't. If you want to claim that he believes in such a conspiracy then you must provide SOURCES to substantiate your claim.
Please, therefore, do not put anymore unsubstantiated, un-cited claims that he believes in a conspiracy theory.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by ThebeOkonma (talk • contribs) 14:56, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I removed a paragraph about the Law Society of Alberta in section "Libel cases". It depended on a cite to National Post February 7, 2010, which I couldn't find at nationalpost.com, or on mementoweb, or on the internet archive ("This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine.")  and I couldn't find it in a search of ProQuest, a database that includes National Post articles. The nearest two mentions in the National Post, both reports by Joseph Brean, were: on February 6, 2010, where Levant said there was a finding of a "minor violation"; on March 11, 2010, where Levant complained that a blogger had improperly referenced a letter from the law society with "scandalizing" result, and filed another Law Society letter saying the discipline matter was "dismissed". So: it seems something trivial happened, but it's poorly sourced. Peter Gulutzan (talk) 16:33, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: A lawyer in Canada belongs to a law society, not a bar association. As well, the article said he was "accepted into the law society in 2000". In fact, admission into the law society happens when one is a student-at-law. A person must be called to the Bar to be a lawyer in Canada. I have changed the text to reflect that, but I know it is risky, as he may have actually been accepted into the Law Society of Alberta in 2001 as an articling student and called to the Bar in 2001.

replies: text: [WP:NPOVT] seems to cover this. Both sources are reputable news organizations- two of the most prominent in Canada, actually. It could use attribution, but X accuses Y of being Z isn't an opinion stated as fact. If it were Y is Z it would be.Safrolic (talk) 02:25, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually there's only one source, the other cited article doesn't mention counter-jihad. WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV is relevant if "has been accused" is regardable as weasel wording. WP:PUBLICFIGURE is relevant if Warnica's statements are regardable as allegations against Levant not just The Rebel. But two editors think the material is okay, so my comment was to merely an attempt to be informative. Peter Gulutzan (talk) 13:49, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

message: Just curious when does a person get the label of an anti-Muslim? 
He owns RebelNews and RebelNews has been accused of Islamophobia
https://www.dawn.com/news/1493641
He sent RebelNews staff (Faith Goldy and Gavin McInnes) to Bethlehem, Israel where they called for a new crusade against Muslims.
https://www.therebel.media/it_s_crusade_o_clock_in_bethlehem
Or can we say that RebelNews may be accused of Islamophobia but it does not automatically imply the owner is an Islamophobe?
Levant has a history of hate speech and slander against Muslim individuals.

He clearly crossed the line on anti-Muslim hatred by publishing a series of cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

Calgary alternative newspaper and conservative activist Merle Terlesky said, "Ezra looks for any opportunity to poke a Muslim in the eye." [See: Brean, Joseph (October 17, 2013). "In 2007, Ezra Levant sued a Calgary newspaper and letter writer for libel". National Post. Retrieved October 20, 2013.]
Some Muslims have already labelled his hate speech and fear mongering as Islamophobic
https://muslimdebate.org/2014/06/16/ezra-levants-hypocrisy-revealed/
But this is my opinon that he is an outspoken anti-Muslim and an Islamophobe. Wikipedia should be based on facts not my opinions. What factually is considered anti-Muslim? And has Levant crossed the line here long time ago?

replies: text: The purpose of an article isn't to label a person as something-or-other but to be a comprehensive and well-sourced biography. This article isn't protected so you could edit it yourself by, for example, adding a subsection on Levant's views on Islam to the "Political views" section.  Additions would have to have reliable sourcing and follow policies on biographies of living people and neutrality. Articles on other far-right individuals like Geert Wilders or Gavin McInnes might serve as useful templates for you.Citing (talk) 15:08, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  When will Wikipedia label Ezra Levant as anti-Muslim? 

message: The article is just a list of negative claims against Levant. It barely mentions any of his work. Where's all the detail on 'The China Files' for example. The article is an utter disgrace to Wikipedia. Hontogaichiban (talk) 13:07, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
