My statement regarding South Africa's referral to the International Court of Justice regarding the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

[POLITICO @politico]

The Biden administration acknowledged it conducted no formal assessment of whether Israel is violating international humanitarian law in its war against Hamas, fueling intense criticism as President Biden shows no signs of wanting to change approach.

The three Israeli hostages mistakenly shot by Israeli troops in Gaza on Friday were waving a makeshift white flag when they were killed, an Israeli military official said.

[Rajean Hoilett @RajeanHoilett]

📢 #DAVENPORT Despite hundreds of calls and 71% of people in Canada supporting a ceasefire, MP @JulieDzerowicz is still defending the gov'ts complicity in this genocide -- all while claiming to represent us.

Join us Thurs, 5PM at her office to demand #CeasefireNow

I am deeply concerned about clear violations of international humanitarian law that we are witnessing in the Middle East.

The protection of civilians must be paramount.

They are #NotATarget.

Nobody is above international humanitarian law.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is horrific.

I renew my appeals for a humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate release of all hostages.

All those with influence must exert it to ensure respect for the rules of war, end the suffering and avoid a spillover of the conflict.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I am horrified by the reported attack in Gaza on an ambulance convoy outside Al Shifa hospital.

Now, for nearly one month, civilians in Gaza, including children & women, have been besieged, denied aid, killed & bombed out of their homes.

This must stop.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let the arms cease. Stop, brothers and sisters: war is always a defeat — always, always!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I repeat my call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Middle East, the unconditional release of all hostages, and the delivery of life-saving supplies at the scale needed.

Everyone must assume their responsibilities.

This is a moment of truth.

History will judge us all.

The Danforth "bike lane".

35 cm of snow fell in Toronto.

The City placed 140cm of snow in bike lanes across the city

The temperature is dropping to -14°C and will be well below freezing for at least the next 2 weeks.

This was a choice.

1. This is the most important thread I've written in years. Please RT. Two years ago, London City Council became the first government in Canada to ditch First-Past-the-Post. The results were astounding. Take a moment to watch this short video:

My (25F) boyfriend (25M) keeps asking me to invest in his "soup tube" business idea, and I am not sure how to deal with it. https://t.co/8oVt8M7r1f

Behind every bag of MCCAIN french fries is a farmer who planted each potato with care, watched them grow, & harvested them just for us. With a huge surplus of potatoes, it’s time to take action. Support Canadian farmers, simply by eating more french fries. #FrenchFriesFeedFarmers

OK, buckle up. I wanna talk to you about Triscuit.

Conservatives just voted to cancel the GO TTC fare discount, which will cost GO riders who use the TTC $720 more a year. Ford is not a friend to commuters.
