This is true leadership! @LizanneFoster understands we unionists need to fight white supremacy even if it’s repackaged and upsold in the guise of antisemitism❤️🔥 @IndJewishVoices
With hope and with fear, with outrage and with love, we converged on the Congressional Baseball Game. And we took it over. We stopped play. You may condemn us and that is ok. We come not to give comfort. We come not to give relief. We come to shake humanity awake.
Why is Global running stories about the CRAB Park Tent City where there only quote is from ABC Councillor Peter Meiszner?
Also missing from the story - the mass of pain & trauma this "cleanup" inflicted on unhoused people.
And also their perserverance.
Also, $400k!?!?!? Shame.
More climate disaster. We done giving $22,000 a year each to a corporation that heavily invests in weapons and fossil fuels? @bctf@BCTeachersPlan

@AnastasiaGPeter@SFUJessica@Dave_Eby Protesters were blocking the railway. You can clearly see he is lying on the sidewalk in handcuffs, though. Police are only allowed to use as much forc as is necessary to arrest. Since he was already in handcuffs lying on the ground, it is excessive force.
Abusing youth like this is wrong. Is this the re-branded RCMP CIRG, now known as CRU, inflicting violence on a handcuffed kid on the sidewalk? @Dave_Eby you literally wrote the book on civil rights in BC. Will. you stand up for this boy's civil rights?
It's pay day! Another $2,000 going to the @BCTeachersPlan who will in turn give it to buy bombs to kill children. When will our @BCTF table officers say stand up for the children of the world?
Howler monkeys falling out of tree dead at 50 degrees. Our pensions are funding this. How are our students supposed to survive the future? https://t.co/jIHgQHMJL7 @bctf@BCTeachersPlan
What is going on at Emory University is unbelievable. Students and professors being tased, shot with rubber bullents, and physically assaulted.

57 universities in the US have encampments to demand the US stop funding Israel's war on Gaza. Student protests are rarely on the wrong side of history. Where is our teachers' union on divestment from weapons & fossil fuels? @bctf@BCTeachersPlan@bcndp
Why did anyone have children if they are going to sit back and let this happen? I honestly don’t get it. What do people think their kids will say in ten years time? ‘It’s OK you knew and did nothing? You didn’t even protest? I love you anyway.’

Ontario teachers recently found out our pensions are invested in weapons manufacturers arming & profiting from Israel’s attacks on Gaza. Hundreds wrote to OTPP leadership, but they refused to engage. So last night we showed up at their AGM and became impossible to ignore.
TIMELY:
@zainMZH1 is a peaceful climate activist who is married to a Canadian.
@MarcMillerVM
PLEASE stop his deportation Apr 22. Please stand up for the right to protest in Canada. Our children are counting on us!
