This is a dangerous and irresponsible response. Cheering the illegal abduction of a foreign head of state and celebrating U.S. control over another country is wrong. Canada cannot pick & choose when international law applies. If the rules only matter when it’s convenient, they don’t protect anyone

Every morning I wake up and thank the Good Lord that this numptie doesn't represent my nation on the world stage.

The invasion of Venezuela is bandit politics. It is also a direct attack on international law. Trump, Putin, Netanyahu are working to dismantle the international rules based order. Canada must get ready for what comes next. @meidascanada.ca @meidastouch.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYqU...

I’m thinking this morning about all the people I spoke to last year who were absolutely convinced, and tried to convince me, that Trump would be antiwar compared to Biden and Harris. In the past week alone he has attacked Nigeria and then Venezuela and also threatened to attack Iran (again).

Trump’s administration has decided the rules no longer apply - U.S. or international law. Justice does not come from force. It comes from accountability under international law. Maduro’s repression does not justify these actions and Canada must not tolerate any violations of international law.

🤣...😭

Waiting for statement from @mark-carney.bsky.social So frustrated that some Canadians still vacation in the USA 😞 After Canada's sovereignty treated, people kidnapped off the streets, children taken from schools and daycares, and the embracing of overt racism. 🤯

Huge wake up call, especially for Greenland and Canada... So sad that US citizens are accepting the irony of what their government does with the Honduran President vs the Venezuelan President, and their lack of response to their govt breaking its own laws and international laws.

Amid everything with Venezuela & Maduro and the Trump Regime's various justifications for its extrajudicial & anti-constitutional actions, a quick reminder that - just one month ago - Trump PARDONED former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernández for his... wait for it... cocaine trafficking.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Guterres says pending ban targets groups 'indispensable to life-saving' work, undermines ceasefire progress.

Gaza : MSF dénonce une « ingérence scandaleuse » après avoir été interdite, avec 36 ONG, d’accès par Israël

Let's be clear, the new Israeli registration requirements violate international humanitarian law and could put employees at risk. Govts have various ways to monitor and control NGO staff: entry visas, border controls, labour laws, etc. There's no need to expel them. 💔

uh holy SHIT?

I see we're debating the agency of children in terrorism again. It's interesting: in this case, the use of "females". Could have said "woman" (if he really believed she was an adult at 15) or could have said "girl, but of course that would undermine his position.

“Let’s not call it deregistration, let’s call it a death sentence  —  that is exactly what it would be for the Palestinian people,” says @sana.msf.ca, MSF Executive Director, as Israel moves to bar nearly 40 aid groups under new registration rules. montrealgazette.com/news/local-n...

" #MarkCarney 's policies haven't a prayer of offsetting the emissions locked in by new pipelines, gas plants, decades long #BigOil infrastructure bets & #CarbonCapture boondoggles. In effect, Canada is borrowing a page from America under Trump by subsidizing its own delay. It's the wrong direction"

Dozens of humanitarian organisations, including Doctors Without Borders, are banned by Israel.

You would think someone in this position would be more articulate. It reminds me of Cipolla’s laws of stupidity. See thetyee.ca/Culture/2025... “Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals.”

At least 13 people in Gaza, including two-week-old and one-month-old babies, have died from winter weather.

On Tuesday morning, just a week after a young boy was found dead on the shores of Samos, another shipwreck put 35 lives at risk. Hours later, a man was found dead, while 2 people remain missing, including a pregnant woman carrying twins.

Canada's governments need to take action to ensure Canadians have access to respiratory therapy services in acute care, primary care, critical care, and home care. Supporting the Canadian and international respiratory therapist workforce is essential. Read our recommendations:
