Cuba is out of fuel, strangled by the US fuel chokehold.
People are dying, systems are breaking down.
This is collective punishment against a people who have done absolutely nothing except live their lives under hard conditions imposed by the US blockade for decades.
It’s a blatant violation of international law, a crime in progress.
Canadians are connected to Cuba: we’ve been welcomed, had great holidays, heard incredible music, done business and made friends.
We need to help Cuba right now, even if it bothers Trump: Canada should send immediate humanitarian fuel aid, in as much quantity as we can quickly assemble.
And we should be speaking out loudly on the international stage: US military action against Cuba is absolutely unacceptable!
It’s time for the countries of the world to rally and stop this impunity before it takes another sovereign country into chaos.
We have to come to Cuba's aid. What's happening is too cruel, too horrible.

Francesca Albanese just exposed the ugly truth: The New York Times ignored Palestinian rape testimonies for over a year.
She gave them a lengthy interview in February 2024. Nothing followed.
UNRWA detailed torture and sexual abuse. Nothing.
B'Tselem. Physicians for Human Rights. The UN Committee Against Torture-which concluded torture is Israeli state policy. The UN Commission -which called it systematic, widespread, and an act of genocide.
All ignored.
But now the NYT finally publishes? Suddenly it's a scandal
The rape didn't start when the NYT noticed. The silence just became harder to maintain

Palestine stands as the moral compass of our time.
Exposing Apartheid and its crimes, their root causes and implications, is necessary to ensure the world "wake up" and work together to overcome it.
Together we can and we will.
Kucherov has played 7 game 7’s and has 0 points. But the media will tell you McDavid isn’t a big game player when he leads all current players with points in elimination games

A lot of jokes from King Charles tonight.
“You recently commented, Mr. President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French”
Unfortunately for Ridly Greig this will carry over for next season even with the season ending. Thats the ultimate disrespect in hockey what he did today and he’ll have to answer whether he likes it or not. Disrespect the game and you pay the piper kid.

After sleeping on it… here’s what I’m seeing.
Oilers McDavid, Draisaitl and Hyman all look banged up. Coming back into their own zone, all three look slow.
McDavid has looked frustrated ever since the first period of Game 1. I have never seen him play like this.
Bouchard has too many turnovers. Same goes for Nurse and Walman.
Ingram was solid in Game 1 and the first period of Game 3, but 13 goals against in 3 games isn’t good enough.
The Ducks have a clear game plan and they’re executing it. They’re flying.
That said, Oilers tied Game 2 late in the third and had the lead in Game 3. Make the right changes and control the pace in Game 4.
But that sounds like a pretty big IF!
Israel killed Rico Pramudia in South Lebanon.
He died of his injuries today.
He wasn’t a fighter — he was a UN PEACEKEEPER from Indonesia.
Israel killed him anyway.
And not a single whisper from Western media.
No international outrage. No justice. No accountability.
In my 25 years of investigating the arms trade & conflict, there is no doubt that the Israeli army is the most depraved, amoral military on the planet.
Cale Makar gets Norris votes every season because of his “reputation” despite not even being top 5 by the data
On the other hand, Connor McDavid isn’t allowed to win the Hart because the voters are getting “tired” of it
Does this double standard make sense to anybody else?
Professor Norman Finkelstein:
“Israel is now a madman.”
“It didn’t get its way with Iran, and so it is totally destroying Lebanon now.”
“It is in a state of catatonic lunacy.”
“I’ve said this for years. Now it’s the consensus.”
“Israel is a lunatic state. A lunatic society.”
