Very disappointing news today as the new federal cabinet has eliminated the Women and Gender equality minister, along with other important ministerial positions. A stark reminder that the fight for #reprojustice is ongoing.

The frequent use of graphic imagery by anti-choice extremists has sparked controversy at the University of Toronto. One student called the graphic images “an aggressive and invasive tactic” that “doesn’t promote healthy dialogue," and that generates discomfort and division instead.

Please read + share our latest blog post—by @vanishingsigns.bsky.social about Manitoba + Canada's rapid escalation of border militarization.

"This Black Hawk acquisition, already audible above so many towns, must be reversed alongside all it represents."

Canada's immigration policy needs regularization—not further militarization
Buying new toys for police not only does nothing for safety; it actively endangers migrants, as targeted reforms to immigration law push greater numbers of people to attempt desperate passages.
