Thanks to an outpouring of support, The Westdale theatre has reversed their misguided decision to cancel a screening of the crucial film @IsraelismFilm. Hamilton folks, show them they made the right choice by attending the screening on December 6! cbc.ca/news/canada/ha…

Inmates do not have freedom of movement and cannot seek out shelter from the cold. Heat at the Hamilton Wentworth Detention Centre must be restored immediately. I have contacted the Ministry of the Solicitor General and look forward to hearing back. #HamOnt

Hamilton friends, please spread the word about this rally organized by residents of Hamilton for a ceasefire. The rally will happen in front of MP Lisa Hepfner’s constituency office this Sunday and is endorsed by @IndJewishVoices and @hamilton4pali

Venezuelans approved a referendum called by the government of President Maduro to claim sovereignty over an oil and mineral rich piece of neighboring Guyana. The occupation of Palestine is the most visible, most violent current colonial project but is not & never has been alone. twitter.com/ajesusjoseph/s…

I mean, when you have only Venezuelans vote on stealing 60% of Guyana to get rich and no one in Guyana gets a vote, how do you think it'll go? apnews.com/article/venezu…

Exciting news! A new, Independent Riding Association has formed in Hamilton Centre. Meeting Dec 12, 7-9 PM at @ATU107 Hall. For those unable to attend in person please register for the Zoom link by emailing [email protected]

@ajesusjoseph @jennygirlb73 @TheSpec This plan signals that the City has not heeded any advice from interdisciplinary evidence based research that is in their hands. If not ignorance, what is fueling this disconnect? A lack of will and moral fiber? Where's the will to amend zoning & create more shelters?

@ajesusjoseph @jennygirlb73 @TheSpec The city's plan is no different than someone finding refuge in a Tim Hortons before it closes. "Warming centers" until 11:30pm and then out on the street to somehow erect a tent in the dark. That's the plan. This is abysmal.

Targeting intellectuals, academics, activists, leaders of any sort has always been a common thread in genocide. Killings of the most notable of your community are done to make you remember nobody is safe, to make you lose hope, to ensure the community doesn’t resist or reorganise

The indigenous peoples of the #Essequibo said THEY historically and presently occupy the lands, and they will side with the Guyanese! Reaffirming Essequibo is, and will always belong to #Guyana.

World Court orders Venezuela to refrain from action in border dispute with Guyana reuters.com/world/americas…

#ICJ provisional measures rule in favour of #Guyana and orders #Venezuela not to take any actions that would change the status quo or prejudice the #ICJ's eventual ruling on the dispute.

So…everyone is aware about Venezuela planning to stroll in and claim 2/3 of land mass of the neighbouring country of Guyana?

Anyone wanting to know what kind of depraved & psychopathic dictatorial regime Nicolás Maduro & his cronies are running in #Venezuela as they threaten tiny, democratic #Guyana needs to read the report submitted to the International Criminal Court this past April. twitter.com/michaelcdeiber…

Invading Guyana is not defense. twitter.com/visegrad24/sta…

Venezuela wants to “annex” 70% of Guyana’s land via a 200 year old land dispute. Venezuela’s population is 28.5 million and Guyana’s is 743 thousand. Venezuela’s military is over 15 times larger than Guyana’s and heavily funded. A deeply concerning time.

We have updated our travel advice for #Guyana due to the upcoming referendum in #Venezuela on December 3, 2023. More info here: travel.gc.ca/destinations/g…

City told to ‘do better’ for Hamilton’s homeless this winter thespec.com/news/hamilton-… via @TheSpec

The City of Hamilton has announced an update to their winter response strategy as protesters gathered outside city hall voicing concerns about “potentially life-threatening gaps” in the plan. @EmilyNTayler reports. Click on the photo below to watch more. chch.com/city-of-hamilt…

"Winter happens every year" Why are the plans for people outside still so dangerously inadequate?

You should really look at this. A "warming bus"? Going to 15 locations? Over an 8 hour period? Picking up people and taking them away from their belongings? How long can they stay on the bus and near their stuff? What about their health? Who advised this? hamilton.ca/city-council/p…

It's a terrible trap when in the most stressful times of the term, when people need the most support and compassion, the designed burnout leaves everyone with so little space for it. Don't comply with the design.

How the hell is it that Venezuela gets to vote on annexing a resource rich part of Guyana? What in the colonial hell? twitter.com/AP/status/1729…

Do the curriculum changes come with anti-capitalism, anti-colonialism, anti-racism, anti-sanism, anti-ableism, anti-discrimination/harassment of trans people, etc.? Or is it Lecce et al's preference of focus?
