Today at Pearson’s Terminal 3, I welcomed 11 children from Gaza.
They’ve survived what no child should ever endure.
It’s time Canadians to see that families in Gaza are just like ours—full of hope, pain, and humanity.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about basic human dignity.

CJPME’s @Alex4Solidarity explains how Canada’s visa program for Gaza was designed to be impossibly restrictive and reflects anti-Palestinian racism. This government is an ally to genocide, not a human rights defender. Canada must change course! #ReuniteGazansNow
Biden refers to "our military operation in Rafah." He corrects himself to say "the major military operation in Rafah", but this is yet another occasion where his flubs reveal the truth. Every Israeli massacre in Gaza is a joint Genocide Joe production.
HAPPENING NOW: Thousands mobilise at short notice outside Downing Street to demonstrate against British complicity in the massacre in Rafah and to call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
A dozen Israeli soldiers just stormed a hospital, disguised as doctors, nurses, patients, & veiled women & executed 3 Palestinians in Jenin - the West Bank.
The IDF has entire units whose specialty is to fight in urban spaces dressed as civilians, like the “Duvdevan unit 217”.
While at the @UN_HRC#UPR4R, I unequivocally condemned hate crime and hate speech in all its forms. We've seen a disturbing surge in Antisemitic and Islamophobic hate across our nation. This cannot be allowed to fester and go unchecked — we must speak out and stand together.
I was honoured to join @nccm last night to remember the victims of the January 29, 2017 Quebec City mosque attack.
As Islamophobia unfortunately increases across our country, now it’s more important than ever to act against hate.
Yesterday was National Day Action Against Islamophobia, @nccm brought 100+ community leaders from accross Canada to meet MPs. Doctors and lawyers, Imans and business owners. They came to tell us of growing Islamophobia and disappointment with Canada's actions on Palestine.
Today is the seventh anniversary of the Quebec City mosque shooting where six worshippers were gunned down and 19 injured.
A night thay changed this country. A night that changed this community. A night that forever altered how we see our place in #Canada.
It is because we honour their memory and their legacy that we have decided to cancel our meeting with PM Justin Trudeau as part of NCCM's national Advocacy Day today, focused on combating systemic #Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian racism.
Enough is enough. We have waited long enough for empty promises to fulfill themselves, from an effective online harms bill, to intervention on Quebec's Bill 21, to the affirmation of Palestinian human rights.
We either believe in human rights, or we don’t.
This is why, in consultation with leadership from coast to coast, we made this decision.
Yall are hypocrites for claiming solidarity with Palestine, only to go back to supporting known zionist owned brands not even a week later. Consistency matters. Your daily Starbucks does not.
yall don’t know that starbucks is being boycotted not only bc they support israel but bc they SUED THEIR WORKERS UNION for supporting palestine. Their treatment towards their workers and unions is a good ass reason to boycott idk.
We are shocked and outraged after revelations were read into the record at the guilty plea of a man who attacked peaceful worshippers at a Mississauga mosque. (1/5)
This is how Islam is saved, by the raised hand of imam Ali (a), by the blood of imam Hussain (a) and by the sermons of bibi Zainab (s) and imam Zain ul Abideen (a) ❤️
