Watching genocide unfold live: we know what is happening & can act. We're on the verge of a holocaust: more than half of people in Gaza are currently being starved.
Waterloo Region hosts weapons companies/manufacturers aiding genocide - we must act now to stop this genocide.

According to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, the genocidal Israeli regime has now killed more than 10,000 infants and children since the start of its attack on the Gaza Strip on 7 October.

More of this. Fuck decorum. They kill babies in tents.
Canadian politician Chrystia Freeland, Canada's former deputy prime minister and finance minister, was confronted during an event in Toronto
"Thousands murdered because of you. How many children have you orphaned? You monster. You Zionist Nazi dog"
"What do you have to say for yourself, you animal? Get out. You disgusting animal. Get out. You're a fucking Nazi, You're the butcher of Gaza"
"You animal. And you go around with a book deal? You're making money off of genocide?"

Meanwhile Canada's Liberal gov stands firmly behind the US as it literally starves Cuban children. Unbearable complicity.

The OPP has been working with Palantir for more than 10 years, at least since 2015.
The president of Palantir Canada is building a big ol' something at Ontario Place. (Not a spa, think data centre.)
Ford just gave the OPP special jurisdiction there, and a new detachment.

You rarely see an interview like this in Canada, and so Canadians rarely see how tied our politicians really are to Israel.

Canadian PM Mark Carney’s vision of nation-building is that of a banker.
His new Sovereign Wealth Fund looks less like Norway’s model of collective public wealth than a state-backed investment deal built around privatization. jacobin.com/2026/05/carney-c…

Galen Weston, despite owning a private primary care system (Maple), is on the board of directors at Sunnybrook Hospital.
His cousin is downtown, on the board of SickKids Foundation.
The Westons own a lot of healthcare. Probably more than you realize.
Ontario's Health Minister says low acuity ER visits are improving in part because pharmacists (many employed by billionaires close to government like the Westons) - can now treat conditions like dandruff. I've never seen somone seek ER care for dandruff in 25 years.

Carney's capitalist carnage: corporate plunder of working-class incomes and tax dollars; privatizing vital public assets; 10s of 1000s of job losses; inflation & price fixing; environmental wreckage; medicare cuts; killing phrarmacare; slaves to Big Oil & US-led NATO arms cartel.
