A coalition of civil society groups is calling on @MarcMillerVM to withdraw his criticism of @CMHR_News's 'Palestine Uprooted' exhibit. The groups include the Union of National Employees which represents most of the Winnipeg museum staff. https://t.co/uaKtK3ZCfD
David Lammy refused to condemn Israel's war crimes.
He claimed Israeli babies were raped on 7th October - a vile lie which helped legitimise genocide.
He portrayed a genocidal assault as 'self-defence' - and continued to arm it.
Good riddance.
A rare statement from Canada about the 9000+ Palestinians in Israeli administrative detention, many of whom are held without charge or trial and face deprivation and systemic abuse.
Canada expresses deep concern over the "deterioration of Dr. Abu Safiyah's health," a Gaza hospital director who was kidnapped in 2024, tortured, and whose life is in immediate danger.
This is not enough. Canada must call for the immediate release of Dr. Abu Safiyah and other Palestinian hostages, and back these words with concrete sanctions against the Israeli regime.
Reasons to back Spain 🇪🇸 for the World Cup ⚽️ final:
🇪🇸 wants a Free Palestine 🇵🇸
🇪🇸 will never bend the knee to Trump 🇺🇸
🇪🇸 calls out genocide & refuses to turn away
Viva España 🇪🇸
🇪🇸 💚 🇵🇸
Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis, who’s son serves in the israeli army, is trying to block the Church of England’s report on the genocide in Gaza https://t.co/MHq83QXres
Canada's Foreign Minister @AnitaAnandMP once again says that the "original attacks" on Iran by the US and Israel "looked to be a prima facie violation of international law."
This is baffling because Canada immediately supported those illegal attacks, never retracted their support, and recently said that the war was "worth it."
Now, Anand tells us to ignore these past war crimes and focus on supporting the recently renewed US attacks on Iran, which Carney said yesterday are "appropriate."
Canada should be a force for de-escalation and a permanent ceasefire, not serving as a cheerleader for war criminals.
WATCH — @Byoussef: “This is what Israel does every day.”
🇺🇸 media isn’t even talking about the fact that 🇮🇱 killed the guy that organized a World Cup watch party in Gaza (and 2 kids) 3 minutes after the Egypt-Argentina match started.
The language in this post is incredibly distressing, given Canada’s dark history with Islamophobia. Encouraging others to fight back while openly calling for Islamophobia is dangerous and reprehensible. #notoislamophobia
Many people don’t know this, but the crossed-arms “X” signal is FIFA’s universal gesture for reporting racist abuse.
When a player, coach, or team official makes that signal, they’re informing the referee that racist abuse has occurred. It is meant to trigger FIFA’s three-step anti-racism protocol: first stop the match, then suspend it if the abuse continues, and ultimately abandon the match if it doesn’t stop.
Today, Egypt manager Hossam Hassan made the “X” gesture from the touchline. Instead of initiating the protocol, the referee booked Hassan with a yellow card and allowed play to continue.
“Everywhere in the world, including in Europe or America, if someone hurts an animal, we see animal rights being defended and the whole world reacts...It has become normal to hear that two or three thousand people die in a single day because of a missile.."
🚨 🇦🇺Australian federal police at investigating a citizen who joins an Israeli terrorist organisation the IDF and committed war crimes.
The only reason he got caught is he posted the war crime on his own facebook.
It’s not illegal for Australians to commit genocide in Gaza by joining Israel but it should be. They should not walk among us.
The backlash to this exhibit has been a full-throated demonstration of the depth of anti-Palestinian racism that exists in this country.
Shame on every single person, elected or otherwise, who validated that racism.
The UN couldn't print the names of Palestinian children murdered and maimed by Israel.
Why?
Because they feared Israel would respond by killing and maiming the families of the children.
A question for Minister Anita Anand at the University of Toronto, where she spoke at a private event today:
“Hey Minister, I am just curious what's it going to take for you to stop arming genocide, now we have reached a thousand days of Israel’s crimes!”
Just today @CBCNews reported🇨🇦 made sniper rifles are verified to be in the hands of the RSF committing genocide in Sudan.
You are still arming Israel's atrocities with 🇨🇦made weapons.
There is nothing "principled" or legal about your crimes.
