The NDP condemn Trump’s bombing in Iran & call for immediate de-escalation & a return to diplomatic talks. There is no military solution to this crisis.

Millions - including Canadians in the region - will pay the price for the actions of these warmongers.

Donald Trump has made it clear.

This isn’t about the border.

It’s not about a trade deficit.

It’s about making Canada the 51st state.

This is a threat to our sovereignty.

Canadians will stand strong.

We will not surrender our water, our health care, our values to Donald Trump.

Funny how 5 years ago we had all these debates about wealth taxation, and a big argument was that billionaires don't have that much power really—and right after that Musk bought Twitter for $44B, used it to get Trump win, and now to prop up the global neo-nazi movement ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This column is embarrassing even by Washington Post editorial board standards. It argues that the ICC's job is to go after the enemies of the United States, not allies like Israel www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
Opinion | The International Criminal Court is not the venue to hold Israel to account
The ICC arrest warrants for Israel’s prime minister and defense chief undermine the court’s credibility and give rise to accusations of selective prosecution.
