Explicit legal restrictions on bodily autonomy? In over 90 countries?! In 2026 that should be ZERO. Everyone, no matter their identity or orientation, deserves to have full control of their body without fear, control or discrimination.

Prime Minister Carney, this is what impunity looks like. Look it in the eye. In one day, Israel killed nearly 300 people and injured another 1,165 in Lebanon through more than 100 strikes in 10 minutes, including on densely populated residential areas.

1/2. This is what a "ceasefire" looks like in Gaza. Airstrikes before dawn. One meal a day. Waking up in a tent. Severe lack of clean drinking water. Aid trucks turned away. Children living in fear.
