In 1999 and 2003, students at the University of Calgary set up a tent city to protest tuition increases and a lack of affordable student housing.

Police did not intervene.

And this is how it ends.

The use of violence against peacefully protesting students and faculty is morally reprehensible.

Shame on you @UCalgary

It's clear Canadians want an end to the violence in #Gaza.

A new poll commissioned by NCCM and conducted by Mainstreet Research shows that over 71% of Canadians support the call for a ceasefire.

A majority of Liberal, NDP, and Conservative voters also want #Canada to call for a ceasefire.

"The numbers are undeniable," said Stephen Brown, CEO of the National Council of Canadian Muslims, "Asked in a number of different ways, it is clear that Canadians have spoken. They do not support more war. They want us to push for peace. Will politicians of all political stripes respond to the call of the people?"

We will keep pushing for the wish of the majority of Canadians, which is a #ceasefire now. Follow our action alerts to demand the government follow through on these clear demands.

In light of the recent conflict in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, a letter from Amnesty Canada's two sections was sent today to Prime Minister Trudeau.

Unvaccinated respondents who selected “They made the vaccine too fast”, were more likely to identify as white, believe the #COVID19pandemic wasn't serious & have an #unvaccinated social circle. @allymemes @aidanhollis @proftyler_chs @ReedBeall #surveystudy

@RobertGHarvieKC The vast majority of comments were respectful. However, I for one am not proud of a profession where those kinds of comparisons are made

[Ally Memedovich @allymemes]

I think some lawyers need a reality check. Being required to take a course on Indigenous history and peoples is not the same as requiring Indigenous children to go to residential schools or the years of colonization Indigenous people suffered

[Ally Memedovich @allymemes]

The motion failed. But it’s completely unacceptable that some of these arguments were made. These proceedings made all Alberta lawyers look bad. We have to do better

For all wanting a full recap:

[Dennis Buchanan @LawyerBuchanan]

Current speaker: Not concerned about the content or even the intent of the path, but objects to the fact that he was required to complete it.

Compares mandatory CPD to sending Indigenous children to residential schools.

Bigger corporate profits account for *over half* of the higher prices people are paying.

[The Problem With Jon Stewart @TheProblem]

Jon interviewed Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas Attorney General, about why her state banned gender-affirming care for minors - ignoring the guidelines of major medical organizations and taking the decision out of parents’ hands. Watch the full interview on @AppleTVPlus
