Initial thoughts on South Africa's brilliant presentation of its case for provisional measures in the Genocide case at the ICJ:

Why is it hard to understand that reclaiming one's rights and standing up against injustices that have persisted for over 75+ years should not be equated with terrorism?? Sighing at the agenda that the west continues to push.

Nine years ago, this photo was taken of Israelis cheering the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza in real time. Gaza was under blockade then, and has remained under blockade since.

“Some described it as a best reality show in town. Others said it is better than the world cup.”

We thank @SenatorCordy for leading the cause six years ago to make #Canada the first country in the world to officially recognize #June19 as #WorldSickleCellAwarenessDay
Thank you for being a trailblazer. Happy #WSCD

Today, World Sickle Cell Day, we amplify the United Nation’s declaration that sickle cell disease is a public health problem in LMICs. Let’s elevate SCD to the level it deserves on the global health agenda. @GlobalSCDN #WorldSickleCellDay

SickleCell is a cruel/non curable blood disorder to exist & is rarely talked about. Since they do not receive sufficient support, organizations like @SCAGOSCD make every effort to gain it. I owe it to my family, the daily fighters & to those who have passed away, to speak up

From a Canadian firefighter who knows what’s going on:
#canada #wildfire #smoke
(Worth the read)

“I know you may know, but people need to know and understand that most Canadian wildfire management agencies have fire “zonation” policies similar to Alaska.

This means in large areas of their jurisdictions, especially in the northern part of the country, wildfires are left to run there natural course w little or no direct action or suppression. We’ll protect values at risk, ie. infrastructure, communities, critical habitat or culturally significant features on the landscape, we’ll map them and maybe try to burn them to natural barrier, fight one flank and let the rest roll (limited action) but we are not putting them out.

On many of the fires we don’t even try. A number of these fires are huge boreal gobblers (I am currently assigned to a 250,000 ha fire, well over 600,000 acres and you could fit the org. chart on one side of a beer can).

The only thing that is going to put out this fire out and many across the country is winter, 5 months from now. It’s going to be a long, smoky summer for everyone. You have a wide reach, it would be great if you can help people understand these dynamics in the Canadian wildfire scene when they’re bitching about the smoke.

Cheers 🍻 and thanks.”

Pretty decent picture of what’s going on. Thanks for the insight.

In the industry we call this letting a fire “Do its thing”. It’s especially common in these vast boreal forests. Siberia does the same thing. Identify hazards and values at risk, mitigate, let it go.

Cheers.

Environment Canada is warning of poor air quality in the GTA as wildfire smoke from Eastern Ontario and Quebec blankets the region. https://t.co/msu3VUPdNh

Approved to make a delegation this morning to the #HamOnt Airport Committee about the events of May 26th. Watch live on YT soon! If nothing else, perhaps this committee can decide if they will take any ownership of these issues. @JoeyColeman @LauraBabcock @TheSpec @CBCHamilton
