Peaceful protest is a human right. Universities should safeguard people’s rights to assembly and free expression. Listen to @astroehlein's Daily Brief:
What in the fresh hell is this. “A CSIS officer's allegation that she was raped repeatedly by a superior in agency vehicles…also triggered an investigation into her that concluded the alleged attacks were a "misuse" of agency vehicles by the woman.” cbc.ca/news/politics/…
Rapper Toomaj Salehi has been sentenced to death by a Revolutionary Court in Iran. His music & social media posts criticized the government and called for freedom & human rights. Authorities must quash Toomaj Salehi’s conviction & death sentence and release him immediately!
This photo will be the one that defines these times in Canadian history. Like the face to face confrontation between a Canadian soldier and Mohawk warrior at Kahnesatake.

I was happy for the Two Michaels and their families that the Cdn govt was fighting relentlessly for their release. But it was a stark contrast with so many other Cdns arbitrarily detained abroad. Don’t these other citizens deserve the same protection as the White Michaels?

The human rights travesty facing #Uyghur-Canadian Huseyin Celil, unlawfully detained in China for 18 yrs, receives so little attention. Now this riveting podcast from @yusufzine & team for @tvo has dropped: tvo.org/podcasts/extra… Put it on your listening list, and then... 1/2
ca.yahoo.com/news/feds-dont… If these Cdn kids detained for yrs were from Yorkville, Westmount, or Rockcliffe (as opposed to just 'those people' as Ottawa MP so charmingly put it), they'd be FRONT PAGE news every day As it is, we're supposed to feel grateful they're mentioned at all
I want to thank Canadians across the country for their words of support for the Zameer family these past few weeks.

A day of unimaginable relief for an innocent man, and no doubt elation for his superb defence counsel @Nader_Hasan_law. But for those braying for more stringent bail, the details of the Zameer case, and the now public bail jmt, should give them cause for reflection and shame.

Maddening. If CSIS was serious about changing its culture it would investigate the alleged rapes and the circumstances that enabled the behaviour. To investigate the complainants shows the spy agency values the protection of its reputation over its staff. bc.ctvnews.ca/violation-csis…
when the director pledged to launch a workplace assessment of the Vancouver office (where this took place), the investigation into the complainant’s activities was already concluded. Not sure you need a workplace assessment to see something seriously wrong there. 🧐
This is some draconian bureaucratic retaliation for daring to complain. I sure hope the Director is called to answer for this in public.

Canada's border services agency is exploring mobile facial identification apps to further automate border controls. While maybe more convenient, expanding facial recognition without updates to Canadian privacy law or independent oversight of CBSA places travellers rights at risk.
