Sad but unsurprising from institution that for the first time invoked national security secrecy to silence a survivor and protect an abuser in May 2025. Please sign/share to ban use of state security secrecy in cases of male violence against women: c.org/bfVCLQvZtF

Unless we stop it, Ottawa will host drone warfare testing the final week of November. We need to stop – not normalize – the terror that afflicting civilians in Gaza, Ukraine, Somalia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and countless other spots on the globe. Please sign/share: www.change.org/p/reject-dro...

When the full details of a devastating assault on a woman’s personal security can be disappeared from the public record in the name of Canada’s “national security,” it poses yet another obstacle to women coming forward. www.change.org/p/stop-silen...

For the first time in Canadian history, in May 2025 national security secrecy was invoked to silence a survivor in a catastrophic case of male violence against women. Let's make sure that never happens again. Please sign & share: www.change.org/p/stop-silen...

Case of Canadian soldier charged with catastrophic assault of his spouse shockingly shut down in May 2025 for undisclosed "national security" reasons, silencing a survivor & setting a dangerous precedent.@SeanFraserMP must ban state secrecy in such cases www.change.org/p/stop-silen...

White supremacy is so insidious. This from the home page of the Weather Network.

Mark Carney Anita Anand Gary Anandasangaree That's how long Canadian Jack Letts has been arbitrarily detained without charge under horrible conditions in NE Syria. Also held for years are 19 other Canadian women, children & men. Sign & share to bring them home: chng.it/C5tc5vHN

Why is lethal, sickening tech being tested in downtown Ottawa? "The systems, which can cost less than $500, are currently being widely used in the Russia-Ukraine war as well as in fighting in Gaza, Haiti, Lebanon and Syria." ottawacitizen.com/public-servi...

Instead of taxing the rich to feed his Military Industrial Complex, Carney has decided to literally take food out of the mouths of babes.

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

These kids simply want to go to school but they can't because they are among over 2,500 Palestinians trapped in Egypt waiting up to 20 months for Canadian visas. Ukrainians waiting only two weeks for visa approval. What's the holdup for these kids and so many others?

When the Liberals invite the guy behind Project 2025 to speak with them, you know there is no point worrying about Poilievre. King Carney is the real threat. www.thestar.com/news/world/p...

Today is Day Two of the Chain Fast for Palestinian Family Reunification to end Canada's None is Too Many Palestinian visa policy (fewer than 2% of 5,000 applicants have been directly evacuated by Canada in 20 months). Bring them all here now! Thanks Sharen Craig for fasting today!

España, te amo. On left, Spanish crowds cheer the International Brigades resisting 1930s fascism. On the right, people of Spain cheering on an international group of freedom riders/sailors heading out on the huge Samud flotilla to break the siege of Gaza and end Israeli fascism.

Today begins a Chain Fast for Palestinian Family Reunification for immediate evacuation corridor for 3500+ applicants in Gaza and those stranded in Egypt. Kicking off the fast today: Kim Leblanc of Toronto and Eric Unger of Winnipeg. Join the fast at rrrncanada.blogspot.com/2025/08/chai...

www.facebook.com/share/r/14JD... this is so beautiful and reminds me of the International Brigades who went to Spain to fight fascism

Condolences to all suffering this weekend from the Toronto War Show. Here's is a look back to when we were able to shut down the Hamilton War Show. They are not as all-powerful as they think. We CAN stop militarism. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rzF...

We cannot, we must not, look away. Canada must evacuate Mamdouh. His story is one we bring to our weekly Wednesday vigil (11 am-1 pm) at Immigration HQ in Ottawa, 300 Slater (at Kent) August. We demand immediate evacuation corridor for all Gaza-Canada visa applicants, waiting & dying for 19 months

Over 630 days after being placed on the Canadian evacuation list, Mamdouh remains stranded in the kill zone, even though Canada has clearly shown it has the capacity to evacuate people through the Karem Shalom crossing. Please sign and share www.change.org/p/canada-mus...

More war crimes from Israel

They will spend untold billions on war and ruin your health at the same time. www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

Mark Carney Anita Anand: will you call for the release of these hostages taken by the Israeli apartheid regime? They were kidnapped in international waters by a state committing genocide.

The Israeli generals leaking this is ... you know ... it doesn't look good. It doesn't look good at the top.

Ka’ila Farrell-Smith grew up deeply involved in the fight for Indigenous rights. “I’ve been warned my entire life, ‘The FBI’s watching us.’” Now the agency is focused on her and a new generation of activists challenging a lithium mine in Nevada.

As always, @julieslalonde.bsky.social Lalonde puts it out there with such truthful clarity. I believe EM as well. www.instagram.com/yellowmantea...

"Wildfires" makes them sound like freaks of nature & disappears the oil companies & political arsonists responsible for them. How about "capitalist flames"?

“Today, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, he’s the only reporter in the United States sleeping in a prison cell for doing his job” The ‘free speech’ ‘anti cancel culture!’ party did this. Hypocrites. All of them.

ICE attempted to enter the home of a woman with her children in Huntington Beach. However, the entire community, police department, and city council intervened and forced them to leave. Keep fighting back ✊🏽

TACO meets CACO

A NHS nurse was told that this background image on a Teams call was “potentially antisemitic” and cause for disciplinary action. Palestinian existence has been criminalized in the UK. www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

Our hearts are heavy for the grieving family of Jaime Alanis, who died from injuries sustained during a chaotic raid on Thursday. We will do everything we can to support them. We continue to work with the hundreds of farm worker families navigating the aftermath of this violent raid.

Always grateful for the remarkable analysis and inspirational advocacy of @julieslalonde.bsky.social as this must read thread illustrates.

Reports that a Canadian citizen who has resided in the US since age 10 was abducted at a green card interview. Her husband is begging ICE to let him fly her back to Canada and they refuse to release her.

The most shocking thing about this isn't that a Mountie is a repeat sex offender. It's that he was suspended *without pay*

ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the geographical location of ICE officers, is the top social networking app in the App Store right now after Karoline Leavitt condemned it from the podium yesterday.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

King Carney is such a disaster for people in this country. We need social investments, not massive handouts to corporate war profiteers. We really need to raise our voices and say not a penny more for war. The whole point of defeating Poilievre was not to adopt his agenda!

I don't know EM but I hope she sues everyone who failed to protect her and that she spends the rest of her life in peace, fulfilling all her wildest dreams. She was done dirty by every system and she deserved better. We all do.

Please take a few moments Thursday to make these calls. It’s been another week of genocide, starvation & massacres. These moms & kids are weak, exhausted, & desperate to reunite with their loved ones in Canada, which has failed to prioritize their lives. www.facebook.com/events/58225...

Zohran Mamdani, who recently cross-endorsed with Lander, called for the comptroller’s immediate release. “This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice,” said Mamdani.

Remarkable how @CBCNews takes at face value the words of long discredited state security retirees who continue making a liking making baseless accusations rooted in racism. Are Anne of Green Gables and Marissa Cuthbert cowering from the monks? Unlikely. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

There is always hope when folks like Elizabeth Yao speak out. The despair comes from principals like that at Bell High School, who act no differently than those who would ban and burn books. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"The victim and her lawyer accuse the federal government of using the law to avoid the embarrassment of the public knowing that an elite soldier had violently attacked his spouse, while the military says Mr. Spence has not been actively employed since 2023." He remains a member of the CAF.
