“I think what we saw last night was New Yorkers not just electing a new mayor, but clearly rejecting a politics where outside corporate power and money too often.”

Sooo disappointed in Bob Rae and Canada.
Dear Bob Rae,
You don't get paid to sit and listen. You get paid to stand up for Canadian values.
During the brutal Russian invasion of Ukraine you used the word genocide numerous times.
The UN has found Israel guilty of genocide.
You're our ambassador.
Why the silence?

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right.
Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

The real sticking point on brokering a ceasefire isn't, it seems, Ukraine having to make painful territorial concessions to Russia.
No, it's Europe still insisting – after three years of bloodshed – that Kyiv be allowed to become a Nato forward military post on Russia's borders.
