4 weeks. 4 weeks of waking up every day, not knowing if our team members are still alive. I haven't had the words. So I'll let Salwa speak instead. I hope we get to hear more from her.
"All aspects of life have been lost – whether safe place or shortage of clean water, food, clothes, blankets, diapers. My message to the world is to stop the #war, as we love life." - CARE's Salwa Tibi from #Gaza.
ALL civilians on both sides of the conflict MUST be protected.
Crushing news today from @cwyjcm, an organization that helped shape me into the human I am today. 50 years of history vanishing before our eyes. Incredible loss for youth everywhere. Any CWY alumni mourning with me? I was Québec - Burkina, 2005-2006.
The problematic changes proposed undo the progress sought in S-216. Shameful really. Charities are doing good work, being responsible about it, and following the rules. Why legislate the government's distrust in us, and bad colonial practices? #FixTheBIA@cooperation_ca
Ce projet de loi ne peut pas être présenté tel-quel. Cela va à l'encontre de tous les progrès réalisés dans nos approches anti-coloniales en coopération internationale. @MonaFortier comment faire pour le changer? #FixTheBIA

Having lived in #BurkinaFaso, I am thankful that our teams are tackling this worrying crisis. The scale is immense & the region is often forgotten. Funds💲 from @CanadaDev for our @carecanada work will go a long way...
Millions of people in the #Sahel and #LakeChad regions are facing acute hunger.

What can I say, talking about our sector makes me gesticulate 👐 Happy to spend time with my MP to talk about Canada's important role in the world, and to celebrate #IDW2022 together #GoForTheGoals
Very good point made by someone in my Twitter feed. On Wednesday, Chief Sloly referred to tagging and towing as not being an "elegant solution." I heard it and made a mental note of it but didn't think about it. 1/
Wonderful to have had another conversation with @HarjitSajjan around our mutual priorities for the international cooperation sector - always a pleasure to speak and to move these issues forward together!
During my meeting with Maxime Michel & Shannon Kindornay from @cooperation_ca, I committed to partnership & improving the way we deliver assistance. I look forward to working together on:
🔸Promoting diversity
🔸Preventing sexual exploitation
🔸Improving humanitarian response
