@AshleyBurkeCBC Is this really quality "news"? CBC led with this story this morning. Not defending Trudeau, don't think he responded well, but how is this Canada's top story? Is this entertainment tonight, or US magazine?
5/ We are very grateful to the editors of this special issue - @DrEvilAcademic, @DrMunaSaleh, @brettonvarga - whose encouraging support and thoughtful feedback brought this work to fruition.
4/ Our research shows the importance of tackling (systemic) Islamophobia enabled through 'soft' national security measures. This is relevant after last week's summit where govt officials presented Islamophobia as (individual) 'hate': https://t.co/Su0rwnMBtL
3/ We find that #CVE relies upon stereotyping, surveillance, and disciplining (of Muslim students). But CVE also plays a sleight of hand by claiming it can combat #Islamophobia while fomenting Islamophobia through securitizing Muslim students.
2/ In our piece, we express grave concerns about the expansion of countering violent extremism (#CVE) techniques in the #education sector in #Québec, specially as it becomes another avenue to target Muslim youth. https://t.co/N6dOD2CLdq
1/ Kris Millett and I had the privilege of contributing to a special issue of Canadian Social Studies reflecting on 20 years since 9/11 and the 'war on terror'; the article was published earlier this month.

Moderators need to realize that if you give Donald Trump a chance to undermine the election results in advance, he will. This isn't giving voters information. It's courting crisis.
I don't think I've had one conversation about Trump in the last four years in which someone did not repudiate him with more clarity and conviction than Biden is mustering tonight. #Debates2020

It's summer, and that can only mean one thing - the launch of the federal pre-budget consultations 🎉 This process is an important way for organizations to have their voices heard, and we want to give the sector all the tools they need to participate! (thread)
