Any foreign minister that allows a country to abuse its citizens and illegally detain them is not worth their position and I have to question them as a human being. Who else would she sell out Canadians for?
Canada continues to oppose the expansion of settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Today, together with Australia, France, Norway and the U.K., we announced coordinated sanctions targeting those supporting extremist settler violence against Palestinian civilians. As we impose this fifth round of sanctions, we remain committed to a comprehensive, just and lasting peace where Israelis and Palestinians can live in peace and security. canada.ca/en/global-affairs/…

RT @DavideMastracci: A much better question would be: Why is the entirety of Canada’s corporate media supporting a genocide?

🇵🇸:  20-year-old Malak Maher Naeem died after waiting for months for Israel to approve her medical evacuation from Gaza for cancer treatment. By the time she was allowed to travel, it was too late. Her lymphoma had become critical and she died shortly after arriving in Egypt.

A 17-year-old valedictorian, Leen Hijaz, used her graduation speech to speak for the voiceless: "Millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan. Families torn apart by ICE." The school administrator cut her mic. Told her: "If you don't stop, you're not graduating." They withheld her diploma for four days.

“The first thing anyone noticed in Theodosia was her smile. We’d always see her laughing.” This Lebanese student was killed by Israel just after finishing her final exams. Theodosia Karam is one of over 3,500 people killed by Israel’s attacks on Lebanon since March.

The Tiananmen Mothers group said the Beijing Municipal Security Bureau notified them they would not be allowed into Wanan Cemetery, where many victims are buried. Authorities also blocked the group from holding its annual memorial rites. 📷: Catherine Henriette / AFP

CJPME is deeply concerned about the widespread racism that has ensued following Prime Minister Carney's announcement of a new Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion. We condemn the attacks on former Minister Omar Alghabra, who is facing smears from extremist pro-Israel voices, including Israeli news outlets, who are attacking his Muslim faith and Arab background, and demonizing his support for Palestinian rights. These attacks demonstrate the intertwined use of Islamophobia, anti-Arab racism, and anti-Palestinian racism, and are attempts to exclude Arab and Muslim voices from national conversations on racism and hate. These attacks must be firmly rejected by Prime Minister Carney and Minister Miller.

37 years since #June4, Causeway Bay saw a heightened police presence today. Armoured vehicles were stationed outside Times Square, with barricades set up near SOGO on Kai Chiu Road. In Mong Kok, officers in tactical gear conducted visible street patrols. In #VictoriaPark, a 70-year-old woman dressed in black briefly made the “6” and “4” hand gestures before being stopped and questioned by police. She said she comes every year “to remind myself not to forget.” “As a Hong Konger, I hope I do not forget. Everyone has their own way of thinking. If you believe you should not forget, you will remember it. Memory continues to exist in #HongKong today. #TiananmenMassacre

China has documented history of weaponizing shared intelligence. Yet,Liberal govt signed a police co-operation agreement behind closed doors—reports suggest we need Beijing's permission to disclose it. We need real answers on transnational repression, not rehearsed talking points

So I should be *more* cool that my peers are forcibly institutionalized, raped, tortured, unjustly imprisoned, and killed? Fuck off.
PM Carney tells immigrants to leave behind the feuds of their homelands: "We don't welcome the world's hatreds" "When you come to Canada you bring your faith, your tradition, your language, your story - you leave behind your animosities"

Those Canadian feminists who denounced sexual violence of Hamas are sure quiet when it comes to Israeli sexual violence of Canadians and Palestinians. You know who you are and so do we
The genocide in Palestine and the mass murder in Lebanon must be stopped

*shocked pikachu face* WDYM yelling, shutting down discussions, belittling experienced MPs are not leadership qualities in Parliament 😳 Could someone remind the PM that throwing hissy fits does not inspire the caucus to serve Canadians?

On June 4, 1989, the Chinese government murdered peaceful students, workers, activists and citizens. Resistance is the refusal to forget when the Chinese government is actively erasing history.
