Canada's foreign affairs minister got back to me about top scholars' finding that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
It...wasn't great.
Meanwhile, Poilievre is out here calling Palestine the "Hamas state."
But where leaders fail, the people step up: the Global Sumud Flotilla is setting sail.

The Spanish government announces sanctions, including a #MilitaryEmbargo, against genocidal Israel.
The tide is turning. BDS is a legal obligation, not just a moral one. Sanction Israel now.
Together, let’s end this!

The Air Canada strike is a huge deal in so many ways — and lots of them should matter to every single working Canadian.
The flight attendants are ignoring a back to work order. Canadians unions are behind them. The CUPE National President is prepared to go to jail.

All Canadians need to be invested in this labour fight and show solidarity with CUPE workers. Workers are the ones who keep Air Canada running, and they shouldn't be expected to work for free.
Hell yeah
“Air Canada flight attendants will defy the back-to-work order and remain on strike after the federal government ordered binding arbitration to end the work stoppage”

A new bombshell report just dropped that exposes hundreds of Canadian arms shipments to Israel.
I reached out to the government about this...and their response suggested either further obfuscation or that they're uninformed about weapons exports during a genocide.
