The International Court of Justice is clear: the occupation of Palestinian territories is illegal under international law. No country should help maintain it.
Canada must act on this opinion.
Canada must sanction leaders in the Government of Israel who continue to call for and implement the occupation.
Canada must sanction those in the Netanyahu government who continue to extend the mass violence in Gaza.
We are running out of time for justice in Palestine.
We must act now.

This is huge: The Canada Revenue Agency has notified the Jewish National Fund "that it plans to revoke the group’s charitable status in Canada over support for military infrastructure in Israel." This is long past due! https://t.co/BqWcmbzjVE
I will never back down in speaking truth to power.
The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians. Palestinians will not be erased. Solidarity with all those outside of these walls in the streets protesting and exercising their right to dissent.
Never again is NOW.
Here with 400 other American Jews marking Netanyahu’s arrival in DC by demanding Biden and Congress stop arming Israel.
ARMS EMBARGO NOW.
Have you noticed that Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza & brutal repression in the West Bank aren’t newstories any more? The killings, famine, suffering of 2 million displaced Palestinians & land seizures, deadly raids, & 1000’s detained w/out charges continue - but no reporting

Just three of the demands Chicago Teachers Union @CTULocal1 is making for its next contract, because kids can't learn on a boiling planet.
This is visionary bargaining for the common good. https://t.co/ig89Jefwpk
UofT encampment students: “Disclose all investments. Divest from Israeli apartheid, occupation, and genocide. Terminate partnerships with Israeli academic institutions.”
UofT: “What if we want to have breakfast on the front campus”
The joke of the day!
On the same day the International Court of Justice (@CIJ_ICJ) orders Israel to immediately halt its military assault in Rafah, the University of Toronto issues notices of trespass to its students who are demanding that @UofT divest from the very same Israeli military violence.
TGSA Statement in Support of Students Demands for Investment Transparency and Divestment at UofT: "We lend our support to students’ demands for financial transparency and the refusal to fund genocide, genocidal violence,..."

.@ToddSmithPC and @EnbridgeGas are colluding to lock you into years of gas dependency. #Bill165 is yet another example of the Ontario government siding with big business over Ontarians' best interests. Don't let #Enbridge mislead you! #NaturalGas is no longer the most affordable way to heat your home. #ONPoli #DontHookUpWithEnbridge

LIVE from @PlugN_Drive’s Electric Vehicle Discovery Centre:
Canada’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources @NRCan, The Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, has announced an investment of $5M to the @cityoftoronto to install 486 Level 2 and 40 Level 3 EV chargers across the city.
So, Canadian parents, just remember this...
@pierrepoilievre doesn’t want to regulate social media companies to stop the spread of child pornography or self-harm algorithms or pedophile networks , but instead prefers to let these social media companies do what they want in interest of...free speech?
He's more concerned if your kid wants to be called Samantha vs Sam than actually protecting them from predators on the Internet.
These social media companies are raking in the profits, while repeatedly getting caught exploiting our kids. These social media companies can afford to put guardrails in place. Our police departments do not have the bandwidth to tackle this out-of-control digital crisis. These social media companies do.
A reminder...
79% of sextortion incidents occurred on Instagram or Snapchat - https://t.co/cgBR9ApInr
Instagram’s recommendation algorithms are promoting pedophile networks - The Verge
Among teens who reported suicidal thoughts, 13% of British users and 6% of American users traced the desire to kill themselves to Instagram - WSJ
The Online Harms Act is a step in the right direction and I'm disgusted - as the parent of a young teen, an online safety author, and Canadian - that @CPC_HQ is choosing to make our kids LESS SAFE online.
