Tens of thousands in 70+ communities across Canada took to the streets in an unprecedented & historic cross-movement mobilisation to #DrawtheLine and demand Mark Carney & the federal government pick a side: injustice, violence, and climate destruction — or a just and safe future for all of us.✊

Scapegoating immigrants, refugees, and temporary residents is political cowardice. Canada benefits from the disposability of temporary residents and their disempowerment. Temporary residents are human commodities to this country. #BillC-2 #DrawTheLine #Montreal

"The best time for Canada to have implemented these measures would have been in the beginning of Israel’s genocide [...] The second best time, as ever, is right now."
Canada is sending hundreds of thousands bullets to Israel as it guns down children waiting in line for food. Not only should Canada cancel arms contracts, it should also cancel trade deals, punish Canadian investors in Israel, and expel Israeli diplomats.

I wrote about it for @policyalternatives.ca
To stop Gaza genocide, Canada must escalate pressure on Israel - CCPA
Canadian companies, with the approval of the Canadian government, are supplying military equipment for Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

Thrilled to be reunited with the full @canrac.bsky.social international diplomacy team in Bonn for week 2 of #SB62! 🇺🇳

As war and climate collapse accelerate, connecting multilateral climate action with justice and peoples on the ground is more urgent than ever.

This was an epic feat - we built a 95-metre wide installation to tell @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social to pick a path, say no to pipelines and YES to bold climate action. We want an E-W grid, green jobs and homes, not divisive pipelines.

Yesterday in Major's Hill Park, beside the Parliament buildings, volunteers & organizers sent a 95-metre message to the Prime Minister. 🔥

It's time for @mark-carney.bsky.social to pick a path—pipelines, or climate action?
