Yesterday, Israel murdered at least 13 people, including 5 children, in the Gaza Strip.
Canadian Foreign Minister @AnitaAnandMP found time to condemn Iran and Russia, but she couldn’t utter a peep about Israel’s ongoing genocide.

Canada has failed to take meaningful action against US-backed genocide and occupation in Palestine, and now stands idly by while the US illegally bombs and commits a coup in Venezuela for oil interests. Total impunity for these war crimes erodes the foundations of international law.
We stand in solidarity with all peoples, from Venezuela to Palestine, resisting imperialist invasion and occupation.

Just got this from the Canadian government:
“While Global Affairs Canada regrets the decision, the group was travelling independently and was not representing the Government of Canada.”
Israeli officials ASSAULTED a Canadian member of Parliament!!
Where is the backbone????

After the Ukraine war began, nearly 300,000 Ukrainians came to Canada under an emergency visa program for Ukrainians.
Since Israel's genocide began, less than 1,000 Palestinians have made it to Canada under the government's program for emergency visas to residents of Gaza.

Over 130 Palestinian students’ve been accepted by Canadian universities with full scholarships, yet their visa applications’ve been stalled for months.
Two were killed by Israel while waiting, others remain trapped and at risk.
Canadian students expect respond from Anita Anand.

Why do we still have a trade agreement with a state committing genocide?
Why are we politely expressing "objections" to this state assaulting our members of Parliament?
What does Canada stand for? Not human rights and not even the dignity of our elected representatives?

Today a private delegation of Canadians—which included Members of Parliament—was denied entry to the West Bank at an Israeli border crossing. Global Affairs is in contact with the delegation and we have expressed Canada’s objections regarding the mistreatment of these Canadians while attempting to cross.

Some drama at York University's Goldfarb Gallery.
An artist says the administration censored her recent exhibit, which featured pro-Palestine content. Later, the gallery's curator was abruptly fired.
Now, dozens of faculty are pushing back.

A physician colleague from Canada tried to enter Palestine today to go into Gaza and volunteer as a medic. He was denied entry by an Israeli soldier, and was told by them that he could not be carrying in with him medications. The exact quote is “no life saving medications”.

30 Canadians including 6 PMs were barred from entering Palestine by Israeli officials, and a Canadian MP was assaulted.
Spokesperson for the Israeli embassy in Ottawa falsely claims that Islamic Relief Canada is linked to terrorism.
Meanwhile Israel is committing acts of terrorism daily against Palestinians.
Shut down that embassy @AnitaAnandMP @MarkJCarney.
It’s long overdue.

The Israeli embassy in Ottawa says a group that included six Canadian MPs was denied entry into the occupied West Bank on Tuesday because of an alleged financial link to a charity Israel considers a “terror entity.” thestar.com/politics/federal… via @torontostar

Canada’s recent recognition of Palestine as a sovereign and independent state is meaningless if it continues to refuse to take material action against Israel’s obstruction of that very sovereignty (not to even mention the insult to Canada’s sovereignty).

Moments ago: Premier Doug Ford defends decision to pay school supervisors $350k annually, says trustees “need to be held accountable” for their spending. At the same time, a group of parents of children with disabilities are at QP today calling on him to bring trustees back.

Boycott all the companies that profit off of stolen Palestinian land!!! These companies help fuel the Israeli settler colonial project amounting to genocide, illegal occupation, and apartheid.
As @Airbnb & @bookingcom get sued everywhere for listing properties on stolen Palestinian land (see 👇), it’s time that WE THE PEOPLE stop using their services until they continue profiting from Apartheid.
Choose not to support to "Apartheid with one click" and let them know.

After more than 17 years as a client, I've ended my relationship with Scotiabank's Wealth Management division due to the bank's large stake in Israel's murderous drone manufacturer, Elbit Systems.
Prior to taking this decision, I met with Scotiabank's Head of Canadian Wealth Management, Alex Besharat, and urged the bank to divest from Elbit Systems.
Mr Besharat advised me that the bank would not do so.

Memo to the genocidal racists who run the @TorontoStar:
Israel is not 'testing' the ceasefire.
Rather, Israel is *violating* the ceasefire - just as it has done on every day since the ceasefire went into effect.
