So today the 🇨🇦 gov extended the border closure for the 16th time in a row to keep Canadians “safe”, while this is going on live in Montreal. Sure does feel like my fully vaccinated US partner, whom I’ve been separated from for 15 months, is the real threat to Canadians safety 😒
That sums it up . The Onion is a satirical news website for those who don’t know . However , this is the harsh reality . Please check pinned tweet to follow the best way to know what’s happening in Gaza . #CeaseFireInGaza
If there is one account to follow on Instagram it’s this guy : Motaz Azaiza. If you want to see the daily hell that’s unleashing in Gaza and the preposterous crimes that Israel is committing every single minute go see his videos. Two days ago a child was killed every 15 minutes . I don’t know the rate now. Human exchange rate is very fluctuating . 75% of the victims are women and children. And yet @JoeBiden vetoed to seize fire . Mr. president: what kind of hold does Israel have over you? Israel should answer to its sponsor not the other way round . How can you veto stopping a Genocide? This is not war . This is annihilation . Even war has rules. If you call this a war. This is the link for his Instagram account. Follow, share , call your representatives to stop this.

The population of Gaza is about 2 million. Nearly half are children.
Millions of innocent people cannot be made to pay for Hamas’ horror.
Collective punishment is a war crime. So are blockades to food and water.
We cannot allow dehumanization to descend into further atrocity.
This is a monstrous crime. It's happening in plain view, with US support. Are those 1.1 million people responsible for Hamas' barbarism? May God forgive us.

Government silence on Donna’s Rule demonstrates the contempt the politicos have for binational families. My children were blocked at the border when their mother died after months of pleading for an exemption. @SeanFraserMP@CanadianPM My children are Canadian by birth
I believe this shows how out of touch the federal government is with the Canadian public. They’re now asking Canadians, two weeks before Christmas, to NOT reunite with their families after being separated for 2 years?
@jyduclos@SeanFraserMP@marcomendicino@cafreeland
Thankfully, this is just an advisory and not actual restrictions. I know how scary the past 24 hours have been for binational families, and this is exactly why our advocacy continues on. Now more than ever, it’s important to implement Donna’s Rule.
My wife became ill in February 2020. diagnosed in need of a transplant. On dialysis for months at home. Our children over 21 blocked at the border, no compassionate exemptions never able to see their mother even one last time. She died Aug 20. NHL got exemptions but not my family
The current Omicron related travel restrictions enacted by @GovCanHealth have no family or compassionate exemptions. We proved in our campaign for family reunification that family members can enter Canada safely, alleviating many other health harms, while protecting the public.
Tonight, at 12:01am (local time) the US land border reopens to all vaccinated Canadians. Please share your experience crossing the border & your reunification story using the hashtag #WeAreReunited. If you/your family encounter any trouble crossing the border please let us know.
We've spent the last weeks getting ready to address moving forward & now we're back. Thanks again to those supporting us, we invite you to join in on the action. Thanks @CityNewsTO for covering our group. This video does a great job of highlighting issues & our plans for change.
Currently our identified goals with Faces of Advocacy @FacesofAdvocacy are as follows:
1) To establish Donna's Rule
2) To establish an Office of Government Accountability
3) To highlight other projects aiming to do good and create change
