UofT was one of the last to divest from the SA apartheid. Students were relentless and forced them to. They hope students are ahistorical and that a fence will stop them. But it will happen. UofT will be forced to divest from Isr*el and I can't wait #FreePalestine
The federal budget hasn’t passed yet and we have a rare opportunity to get a major climate win. Help us build pressure on MPs to get a tax on Big Oil's excess profits into Budget 2024:

Anthony is telling us the cops he's summoning don't directly fall under his jurisdiction, because politicians in Canada aren't supposed to direct the police. I guess he thinks this doesn't count?

Solidarity with @SarahJama_ The vilification of the keffiyeh and the open display of anti-Palestinian racism in the Ontario Legislature is unacceptable. What is happening in the Ontario legislature is an embarrassment to Canada.

A reminder that the ONDP could join Sarah Jama in wearing a kuffiya and being visible in their protest but are chosing not to and letting her do this alone. Take from that what you will.

Sorry, but Chief Demkiw saying he hoped the verdict would go another way right after the *judge* suggested his officers colluded and perjured themselves isn't just "controversial," it implies this conduct is a TPS norm and possibly even encouraged thestar.com/news/gta/toron…

@HarshaWalia Amazing! There's one starting at the University of Ottawa today, too ✊️🇵🇸
Breaking: Good morning from People's University of Gaza. Students at UBC and across campuses in the Lower Mainland have launches an encampment in solidarity with people of Palestine.
As pro-Israel public officials and university administrators smear the ongoing encampments as antisemitic, IJV chapters & our members are participating at every level, from organizer to participant. It’s clear that aligning with Palestine is the crime — not antisemitism.
Just now in Parliament, @LMathys asked Defence Minister @BillBlair about @readthemaple's report that an Israeli company will be testing its weapons in Alberta: “Why is this government showcasing weapons in Canada that are killing kids?” #ArmsEmbargoNow
crazy how all our public board appointees are Forbes 30 under 30 big 4 consulting freaks or old liberals
like WHY are there two McKinsey alum on the Toronto Public Library board... a consulting firm that told Galen Weston to fix bread prices and they deserve to be on a public board?
UofT was one of the last to divest from the SA apartheid. Students were relentless and forced them to. They hope students are ahistorical and that a fence will stop them. But it will happen. UofT will be forced to divest from Isr*el and I can't wait #FreePalestine
The intimidation:
In its latest statement @mcgillu advises the encampment has tripled & that many, if not the majority are not from McGill. It also condemns the unequivocally antisemitic language & intimidation occurring. McGill leadership is meeting now on next steps. I hope for swift action.
This is climate action! Solidarity with Gig Workers doing sustainable work without labour protections ✊
Kitchener go line at 10:30am today. Gig workers are travelling far and making good use of the bike coaches. They are working hard to make ends meet during a cost of living crisis. More bike coaches and less punitive measures is the right approach to people just trying to survive
The president of the local labour council is concerned for workers in Chemical Valley and Aamjiwnaang residents. “We feel that Aamjiwnaang is entirely warranted in calling for the shutdown of the facility to address the issue that has caused this sharp spike in emissions."

As some of the first Palestinians from Gaza arrive in Canada (not through any help of the Canadian government) here is a vision of what can and should have happened months ago, as many have been killed while hoping and praying for such a moment. Canada must do more, so much
@McClellanOsc I think this is what is referred to as “bigotry”
Anthony Housefather, one of Parliament’s most diminutive MPs, both physically and morally, is also the MP that CIJA has lobbied most, at a stunning 67+ times in eight years. It’s worth keeping that in mind when seeing statements like this. Read more: readthemaple.com/here-are-the-1…
I call on the @mcgillu administration to act. Final exams are coming up and all students need to feel safe on campus.
Anthony is telling us the cops he's summoning don't directly fall under his jurisdiction, because politicians in Canada aren't supposed to direct the police. I guess he thinks this doesn't count?
Encampments are a violation of university policy. City police are municipal & universities fall under provincial jurisdiction. I call upon university administrators, police (and if needed provincial governments) to act. We can’t allow what is happening in the US to happen here.
My Jewish son and I went down to the encampment at McGill U today, and we just rolled up to say, shut up @AHousefather. You're a schmuck. The students will win and apartheid will fall!
I call on the @mcgillu administration to act. Final exams are coming up and all students need to feel safe on campus.
Outstanding. Moving. Powerful. Just saw #Yintah at @HotDocsCinema. Brilliant film on the ongoing fight by the #Wetsuweten people trying to stop the pipeline that threatens to destroy their home.
I am truly struggling with what happened this week in the Ontario legislature. As a staffer in this place, as a Palestinian-Canadian in this place, and as someone who has compassion, I am disgusted and appalled. Thank you @SarahJama_ for being so strong.
