Ontario, I hear you.
I know that you’re struggling, while Doug Ford’s friends keep getting richer.
You deserve better — better healthcare, better education for your kids, and a better economy to make life more affordable.
It’s time for your government to do more for you. If you’re with me, chip in to support our vision: https://t.co/RtWew2Uerr
City Councillors are introducing anti-democratic legislation in response to peaceful and lawful protests. These actions limit our Charter Rights and Freedoms and have devastating impacts on protests and pickets.
Make your voice heard and sign the petition to tell Toronto city councilors and the mayor to protect your Charter Rights and Freedoms to protest, strike, and picket! ✊🏾 📢

@AmiraElghawaby That's two cops in the background, one of whom is facing the incident. The perpetrator then walks away, right by the two cops, and they don't do anything - takes them a day, plus having official organizations following up with them, to start looking into it. :( #ottcity#hate
🧕Reports of gendered Islamophobia - the specific targeting of Muslim women - have been frequent over the past several months.
Canadian Muslim women have been attacked, spat on, and their hijabs have been pulled off their heads -- as happened yesterday in front of Ottawa City Hall.
These acts are forms of assault and the Ottawa Police Service is investigating this most recent incident as a hate crime. #reporthate #ottcity

Les cas d'islamophobie sexiste - qui vise spécifiquement les femmes musulmanes - ont été fréquents au cours des derniers mois.
Des Canadiennes musulmanes ont été attaquées, on leur a craché dessus et on leur a arraché leur hijab, comme cela s'est produit hier à Ottawa, devant l'hôtel de ville.
Ces actes sont des formes d'agression et le Service de police d'Ottawa enquête sur ce dernier incident en tant que crime haineux.
URGENT CALL FOR SOLIDARITY TONIGHT ✊🏾📢👇🏾
Protestors who include members from CUPE Local 3902, 3261 and 1230 and students have set up an encampment at King’s College Circle at the University of Toronto, calling on the university to sever financial ties with the Israeli government and for a ceasefire in the ongoing war in Gaza.
This morning they received a letter from the University of Toronto administration stating that they are not allowed to protest after 10PM, creating a pretext for potentially shutting down the encampment. We fully reject the administration’s attempt to deny them their constitutional right to peaceful assembly.
U of T would rather threaten involving law enforcement than address the calls for divestment from companies funding an active genocide — a stance that reveals the colonial core of its character. Administration says they are protesting on private property, a claim we reject entirely. They are protesting on stolen land.
We expect a potential escalation this evening, so we are calling upon all community members to show up at 7PM and help us defend their encampment. They will not be leaving until they achieve divestment, disclosure, and an academic boycott of complicit Israeli universities.
The people united will never be defeated.
In recognition of the UN’s Interfaith Harmony Week,
please attend the Interfaith prayer & dinner in dedication to @alex_is_carter & Gurmant Singh, with prayers from different faith leaders

We are calling upon our elected leaders to clearly and publicly take action on the tide of Islamophobia rising in Canada.
This hate crime happened this week in Winnipeg, Manitoba - where an individual used Islamophobic slurs and tried to attack a Muslim woman.
More than ever, the people of Gaza need our help. Send an email to your local representative and demand the Government of Canada secure an immediate humanitarian corridor to deliver vital aid into Gaza!
Take action now
