@sabra_the The tragic murder of Leon Klinghoffer as described is true. However, the photo is fake. That is not Leon Klinghoffer and there is no photo of him actually being shot. It does a disservice to his memory and needlessly undermines the credibility of his killing to post a fake photo.

Thrilled by the release of the YA graphic novel, Soul Machine, by Jordana Globerman (Annick Press). @OpenBookON calls the metaphysical/sci-fi tale a “stunning debut", "beautiful" and "profound”.
@PublishersWkly hails it as "bold", "layered" and "lyrical". https://t.co/i2appIzFRh

@govt_corrupt People seeing this need to be aware @govt_corrupt has shamelessly & disgracefully manipulated & misrepresented a clip of @JustinTrudeau crying over the death of @thehipofficial's Gord Downie. Whether you like or hate Trudeau, this is contemptible and disrespects Downie's memory.

World Food Programme closing its Canadian office in Ottawa @WFP_Canada at the end of the month less than five years after it officially opened. @WFP says it is "part of a re-structure" and Canadian donations will now be managed by WFP HQ in Rome.

@BMO @TorontoFC Is @BMO not going tweet congratulations to its commercial spokesman, @LamorneMorris, for just winning his first #Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for @FargoFX? @TelevisionAcad

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

@LauraLoomer Stop spreading lies. That's one of the people who was attending the rally, apparently the one who was fatally shot.

@rezawrecktion @Apple Simply brilliant in its brilliant simplicity. And the best part of it is, somehow, I doubt an artificial intelligence program could have come up with this.

In 2004, I had the great honour of interviewing Canadian film director, #NormanJewison, who died Saturday at 97. He was personable & without a trace of pretention. Asked about his legacy, he said he hoped he made #movies that left a lasting impression. He most certainly did.

@LizCrokin There is NO substantial proof that this is true. None. It is based on a video without audio of Michelle Obama that was supposedly interpreted by a lip-reading instructor who, as it turned out, wasn't real. Please stick to provable facts.

Pro-#Palestinian protest outside #antisemitism conference at #Ottawa's Shaw Centre tonight. Not a conference on #Israel. A conference on antisemitism! Ever see a pro-Israel protest outside a conference on #Islamophia? Delegates were barred from exiting the front doors for safety.

@itsginellamassa Hi Ginella. Not looking for debate, only clarification. When you refer to 75 yrs of military occupation, that may confuse people who think of the Occupied Territories as Gaza & the West Bank. So are you referring to all of Israel as occupied territory? Just trying to clarify.

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

@AJEnglish Regardless of your position on the conflict, Al Jazeera's assertion is misleading. It did not at all "confirm" that Israel bombed the route. It confirmed only the where and when. People can believe Israel is responsible. But Al Jazeera should not say it has confirmed that.

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

Not all criticism of #Israel is antisemitic. But, without doubt, in many cases that criticism is rooted in #antisemitism & not, as some might have you believe, "anti-#Zionism". But don't take my word for it. These and other protesters can tell you themselves. Sydney last Sunday:

[Catch Up @CatchUpFeed]

A large crowd chanting "g*s the jews" and "f*ck the jews."

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

@itranslate123 Like so many others who will stop at nothing to destroy Israel, you are a liar and propagandist. You are fully aware he is not laughing. His comments are a complete condemnation of the horrible behaviour he is describing. Lies only reveal the weakness of arguments.

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

@hulu @OnlyMurdersHulu It would be great if Jiminy Glick could interview hatchet hack Dan Kois. First question, while distractedly stuffing yet another hilarious donut into his mouth? "And just who are you?"

[Danny Globerman @globerman]

@DevineSean Regardless the issue, invoking NIMBYism is never debate. It's unnecessary and disrespectful name calling. City Councillors engaging in public discourse should address resident concerns, not simply dismiss them. Arguments should be responded to with counter arguments not derision.

Billings Bridge closed entirely. Several police cars at north end. #ottawa #OPS

@Lucas_Gage_ Here’s an idea: rather than posting a preposterously fake selection of supposed quotes from the Talmud first and then asking the Twitter “brain trust” if they’re real and in the process spreading hateful lies, why not do actual, original source research first?

#Nordstrom #Ottawa in happier times: the gala heralding the March 6, 2015 opening. Now the luxury retailer will be shuttering its #RideauCentre store and all of its other Canadian outlets. 2,500 jobs gone. #retail #shoes

Peter Herrndorf's career in Cdn #arts & #media is unparalleled. From the @CBC to his crowning achievement: his spectacular resurrection of
@CanadasNAC from a historic low point. A visionary leader, he exuded charm & was the consummate gentlemen. He will be deeply missed. @tvo
