This week, the Pinizzoto children, Domenic and Dani, along with their mom, Marisa, will bury their dad, Marc Pinizzoto.
Toronto Police Constable Marc Pinizzotto was shot and murdered last week while doing his duty as a member of the Toronto Police Force.
An 18-year veteran of the force, he was only 43 years old.
Pinizzoto was the 413th police officer killed on the job in Canada since 1960 … but his death was different … very different.
Most police fatalities have occurred attending domestic disputes, as a result of traffic mishaps, dealing with mentally ill miscreants or confronting desperate robbers, drug dealers, gangsters.
However, evidence is mounting that Constable Pinizotto was shot by an alleged gun-for-hire, who police were trying to arrest for a terrorist shooting attack on the US Consulate in Toronto last March.
A terrorist? Working for a foreign power? Operating in Canada?
In fact, the accused is also a suspect, along with another man still being sought, in “several shootings” at Toronto-area synagogues as well.
The alleged shooter is now recovering in hospital from several wounds suffered after Constable Pinizzoto was fatally wounded and his partner fired back.
The investigation is ongoing, but what is being revealed … even in the early stages … should shock Canadians!
“In May, the U.S. Justice Department unsealed documents alleging that an an Iraqi national was behind the consulate shooting and had inspired similar attacks around the world,” the Globe and Mail reported Friday.
“The Iraqi national, Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, set up an online terrorist organization with ties to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, U.S. prosecutors allege in court documents.” (You can read the full article here: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-us-consulate-shooting-march-toronto-police-charge-man/)
“As part of the probe, the FBI says it obtained a March 20 audio recording in which Mr. Al-Saadi boasted that his “people” were responsible for attacks in Canada against “the consulate and the Knesset,” the Globe reported.
“In an affidavit filed in court, FBI special agent Kathryn McDonald said she believes Mr. Al-Saadi was referring to the March 10 consulate attack in Toronto, and that his use of the word “Knesset” refers to an attack on a synagogue, rather than the Israeli parliament.”
Nor is Iran’s IRGC the only foreign terrorist group now reportedly at work or having active supporters in Canada.
“Hamas memos show Canadian-funded charities worked with terror group, NGO says”, read the headline in The National Post in May.
“According to a report by an Israeli NGO, Hamas’s own internal memos show it has been working in tandem with Canadian government‑funded charities and non‑governmental organizations. The documents, which the Israeli army says it seized during its Gaza counteroffensive, detail how the terror organization allegedly infiltrated and exploited international NGOs operating in the Strip.”
One of the organizations was awarded $6.5 million in 2014, almost $10 million in 2019 and $210,000 in 2020 by Global Affairs Canada. (Read the details here: https://nationalpost.com/news/hamas-memos-show-canadian-funded-charities-worked-with-terror-group-ngo-says)
In March, Global News reported that that RCMP and CSIS were investigating a Vancouver company accused of ties to Hezbollah. The US has already sanctioned the firm: Canada has not. (Details: https://globalnews.ca/news/11745676/rcmp-csis-reviewing-vancouver-company-hezbollah/)
Canada had better wake up!!!
The evidence is growing that shows Iran, the IRGC, Hamas, Hezbollah are now operating here, or have active Jihadist supporters in Canada, sowing discord in society, stirring up anti-Semitism on campuses and increasingly carrying out violence in our communities.
And although their current focus is on destroying Israel, true Jihadists have much more lofty goals; strict Islamic regimentation; Sharia law; restricting women’s participation in society; abolition of homosexuality; and, subjugation, conversion or death of infidels .. especially Western world Christians and Jews.
Seems to me the Jihadists are already here:
“The year 2026 is already on track to be the most violent year for the Jewish community in recent memory, ” B’nai Brith Canada reported in May.
The Jewish fraternal group reported more than 6,800 anti-Semitic incidents in Canada in 2025.
“These brazen attacks on Jewish Canadians are a sign of a crisis of antisemitism that has spiralled out of control,” said Simon Wolle, B’nai Brith Canada’s Chief Executive Officer. “Violence such as this, which has escalated from targeting synagogues to targeting Jewish people directly, does not occur in a vacuum. It is what happens when governments fail to act despite mounting evidence that antisemitism is becoming more normalized and dangerous.”
The investigation, charges, trial(s) of those involved in the shooting murder of Constable Pinizzoto may expose WHO overseas is organizing and financing many of organized Jihad-supporting “protests” and increasing violence in Canada … and HOW they’re stage-managing the growing discord.
That may not be enough to console the Pinizzoto family; but exposing the Jihadists operating in Canada will help protect our Canadian family.

As this unfolds, free lunch, subsidy cheques, almost no media attention, why?
The lazy actions (if any) by the LPC on this issue which partially is their fault, will be far short of what is required!
Cannot wait for some federal cabinet member to classify us all as racist….
Meanwhile the PRC & a few other meddling foreign governments lick their chops anticipating their own future expansionist goals in Canada….
Not looking forward to saying, “I told you so”.
(Response: The federal government has been very slow to really go after the Jihadists that I’m sure local police, the RCMP and CSIS have already identified and are active and breaking the law in carrying out physical intimidations and violence. Perhaps now that a police officer …and not just Jewish people … has been attacked, there will be action against the agitators …and those funding/instructing them. Ho)
These are very scary situations you have outlined here Harvey. I sometimes wish I was like an ostrich and just stick my head in the sand so as to not hear of this stuff. Ignorance is bliss? God our media is pathetic.
What also concerns me is all the crazies or maybe lone wolves out there waiting to act on their impulses thinking it’s up to them as well to fix the world, or maybe martyrs themselves who could take the lives of innocent people with them as well for their cause.
I notice Trudeau has been mentioned a couple of times. I still stand by the comments I made a while back on this blog. He is still an attention whore and history will prove he was one of Canada’s worst prime ministers ever. Funny how providing LNG to Germany a few years ago did not make business sense then and now countries are knocking on our doors for us to provide it for them.
(Response: I didn’t want to scare you, but the blog is entitled Keeping it Real. 🙂 And I feel vindicated today about this particular posting: I published it Sunday, warning Canadians to WAKE UP to the jihadists in our midst, after noticing that the US FBI had linked the suspect who murdered Const Pinizzutto an Iranian banked agent. And I’ve been suspicious for some time about who’s paying for all the professionally designed/printed signs ad Palestinian flags at anti-Israel protests across the country. Iran? Hamas? Hezbollah? Russia? I figured if there’s one or two terrorist or Jihadist-linked shootings/arson etc. in Toronto, there must be more elsewhere as well! Sure enough, yesterday Toronto Police announced they believe paid guns for hire are responsible for 27 shootings/violence in the GTA alone! And now, their investigation is trying to discover who’s behind it and who’s paying for it. Excactly!! And I hope the RCMP and CSIS are looking at who’s really behind/funding those “spontaneous” demonstrations, on-campus pro-Palestinian, pro-Hamas, pro-Hezbollah agitations on campuses and anti-Semitic attacks on schools and synagogues in other cities across Canada as well. Wake up, Canada! Ho)
At least I wouldn’t want to be in America because that demented irrational loser Trump and gang have probably made jihadists and vengeance seeking others want to to come to America by the droves to commit acts of violence because of what this maniac did in Iran and the Middle East, but Trumps not the only loser, past presidents and are losers in Iraq, Afghanistan, and further back for the misery and mayhem and displacement of hundreds of thousands, even millions then they always stab them in the back by cutting and running. Everyone and even was in their corners and the shipping traffic was running fine until Trump and his war monger Hegseth set everything ablaze. They’ll probably pay dearly for this insanity now. To many vengeful people now for lost families and loved ones. We just dont think on that scale. I totally think a fuse has been lit even with this so called peace deal that is so secretive its probably a total losers deal for Trump and just another loss for another Administration. They’ve even stabbed Isreal and the other Gulf States in the back. They are going to lose on that side also. Thevloserschave lost all reliability around the world. I can only comprehend the stupidity of America by its being administered by a complete blithering maniac.
So with regards to Canada I think we are only doing what needs to be done for economic viability and sustainability in trade with China. Of course we need to be aware, vigilante and have our gaurd up and build our military defenses more and marrying up with other nations and alliances of common cause, but we can have good trade relations with China and only that. America is not reliable as a stable nation now because of Trump, along with half its nation being kool aid drinking sheep. Even most of its big MSM machine are a lame superficial cowardly bunch normalizing everything. They are always asking qeustions on subjects as if they were new and repeating the Whitehouse narrative verbatim without any attempt to posit an opposing view or critical analyst. CNN is even a disgrace now. Ted Turners great network is nothing but an entertainment stage with hosts that look and sound like controlled robots or late night variety hosts. With all Canada’s issues and worry about China, my biggest fear is of the nut next door rather than the dragon thousands of miles away. And what kind of wackos with a wacko president and millions of its people that drank the kool aid would want to isolate all alliance partners, cheerlead and cause unessesary warfare and world sufferings and economic distresses to only be a complete loser in the end, and make millions hate them and want to seek vengeance revenge and reprisal against them. Ask that qeustion. Is their a hell bent motivation and ulterior motive for Trump to do this to his own people and nation. I don’t know but insure is sick.
(Response: You mention jihadists coming to here to carry out their violence. Actually, they are already here… members of our society who want to destroy it … or at least subjugate it. And now we have evidence that evil forces overseas , whether from Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas or even Russia are recruiting, funding and directing them. Just today on the news, I saw that two young men in Britain had been allegedly hired by Russia to attack British Prime Minister Starmer‘s home and try to set it ablaze. Yesterday, in Poland an outspoken Russian exile who had been highly critical of Putin, was shot and killed. We really have to wake up and realize that anti-democratic forces are taking advantage of our open society to not only infiltrate or organize and fund dissent here, but now also carry out violence. Ho)
Wake up Canada ? It probably never will. It’s different times we live in. Complacency and too many sensitivity and politically correct prone politicians and people has diluted the ranks of the population. Politicians are afraid of their own shadows it seems. Universities and College campuses and even schools are infected with the PC sensitivity language in their teachings. No one’s waking up. It’s a lost cause. Politicians yap on about needing change and what they will do and then lo and behold, when they win governing the country or a province, they go quiet. We do have hope though.
(Response: Not even weak politicians, afraid of offending ethnic voters, can ignore reality when a foreign agent kills a Canadian … especially a police officer. And when police catch “protestors” carrying out violence against ANY group, the Courts have to start doing their part and hand those guilty of “terrorist” acts prison sentences measured in years, not months or days. And then afterwards, if they’re immigrants/refugees, throw them out of Canada … denying them ANY compassion, just as they denied any compassion to their victims. Ho)
Your absolutely correct.
This is real scary …. if they have infiltrated charities … what about parliament?
(Response: Foreign interference in Canadian politics is not new. Through diplomats, local ethnic groups and organizations many nations try to influence Canadian positions and policies. But when it turns violent, Canada should act forcefully by arresting, trying and imprisoning those found guilty for a long time (not our usual weak, minimal sentences for even violent crime). The problem occurs when politicians pander to ethnic votes … and turn a blind eye to a lot of it. So it’s getting worse! Ho)
The problem we have in Canada is a laissez-faire attitude to world events and the fear that somehow Canada would be labeled a racist nation or anti religious nation if the government cracked down on international terrorism.
I think Trudeau was jockeying around for a fat UN job after his run being prime Minister.
Trudeau’s lack of interest, plus his utterly daft post national nonsense (and of course the NDP echo chamber) has done great damage to Canada.
One has to remind ourselves that the terrorists are not just from the middle east, but much closer to home, such as the separatists in Alberta, reportedly being funded south of the 49th.
With antisemitism on the rise once again in Canada and the governments bending its collective backs appeasing fringe religions, is setting the scene for more chaos to come.
Of course, a lot of this international terrorism is merely a chess game played by world powers, who fund their favourite groups, which in turn release the “useful idiots” to do as much harm as they can, to make sure they hit the evening news.
And the Canadian media, what Canadian media? All we have now is FOX Entertainment North, they only print the news what their owners tell them to print.
We now live in an age of real deceit, abetted by a feckless media, and capitalized by unscrupulous politcians. This is the swamp, that terrorism grows.
(Response: Seemed to me Trudeau was practically begging for a seat on the Security Council and maybe even fancy UN post for himself… by trying hard to win support from rich influential Arab states. However, I was impressed the way he went after China and India after they overstepped the diplomatic line into anti-Canadian actions. Now there are indications we have a problem of growing violence in our cities initiated, funded and orchestrated by the likes of Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas. Hopefully, the murder of Const. Pinizzuto will lead to lead to some serious action by the government …and, most importantly, long sentences handed down by the Courts for the perpetrators. Ho)
Yup.
Canada asleep at the wheel once again.
Is it me or is even the Media downplaying this event?
And the Canadian cops are acting on tips from US sources…
I remember when I worked for SNC Lavalin and their corporate head office in Montreal was raided by the RCMP about 20 years ago ( google it) with the FBI standing beside them.
Why?
Seems the Americans had had enough of their dalliances with Libya’s murderous dictator Khaddaffi.
Seems a private, charters plane loaded with gold, cash, jewelry, bearer bonds worth hundreds of millions of dollars and Khadaffis’s son and a few private contractors under employment of SNC was stopped and searched and confiscated in Mexico City.
Khadaffis son had multiple Canadian passports and the chartered flight was to end up in….Montreal….
Even the Americans said no to having a family of butchers living on their northern border funding god only knows what.
So here we are…. the pabulum spooning, navel gazing Canadian govt spewing its sanctimonious drivel as terrorists set up shop here.
While our govt spends billions confiscating legally owned fire arms from law abiding citizens.
While criminals are “released on bail” for more and more violent crimes.
Carney and his (former Trudeau) acolytes better wake up.
Food costs, housing costs, fuel costs, inflation, homelessness, crime…..
The honeymoon is ending and the voters are very very very angry.
(Response: The media has given the story a good deal of coverage and I’m sure will continue as the details/trials unfold about those charged and who was behind them. However, you raise an interesting point: no doubt Canada’s “woke” media has downplayed …some say covered up … the Islamic connections to many of the violent attacks (173 reported last year) taking place in Canada against synagogues, Jewish schools, community centres and people. A chilling recent column in the National Post covered the topic: https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world/jesse-kline-it-s-simple-islamic-extremism-is-behind-all-the-jew-hate/ar-AA24Io2i?ocid=socialshare. Real media should not be afraid to expose/canvass the issue, especially if individuals or organized groups are being funded and directed by overseas terrorist groups/regimes!. Ho)
Sadly, Today……the “media” is owned by large conglomerates or families that are more concerned about profits than truth.
Editors/Reporters that are too scared to quit on principle….ultimately….because it would mean financial/ career penury.
“Democracy Dies in Darkness” should be updated to.
Democracy Dies in Debt”
We are all cowards until we cant afford to eat.
(Response: Budget and staff cuts have certainly hurt media coverage in Canada (and elsewhere). But the biggest problem has been our political “leaders” at all levels who have had their heads in the sand, or are afraid of the power of Jihadists themselves, so only give lip service to condemning the acts of violence. Now that police officer has been murdered … maybe we’ll see action! Ho)
