‘If you are not at the table then you’re probably on the menu.’ No adage better captures Africa’s encounter with multilateralism in the last 150 yrs. H.E @WilliamsRuto made this point sharply at #UNGA in Sept 2022. As we debate Security Council reform, let’s explore that history

A truck is not a speech. A horn is not a voice. An occupation is not a protest. A blockade is not freedom, it blocks the liberty of all. A demand to overthrow a government is not a dialogue. The expression of hatred is not a difference of opinion. A lie is not the truth.

This is an atrocity, and it is ours. We are the generation that must accept responsibility, pursue accountability, understand the reality and make change happen. There is no avoiding the solemnity and importance of this moment. It is why irreversible change is required.

We join our partners in calling on Beijing to immediately release the two arbitrarily detained Canadians, Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig. Human beings are not bargaining chips. canada.ca/en/global-affairs/…

The U.S.-Canada relationship is one of the most important we have. I’m so grateful to the 1,200 personnel in our embassy and consulates across Canada for their dedicated work on everything from national security, to climate change, to managing the Arctic region.

As my Special Adviser @UN_GP_RtoP's Adama Dieng says, the Holocaust didn't start with gas chambers, it started long before with hate speech. Hatred is a danger to everyone – and so fighting it must be a job for everyone.

Good statement by @cafreeland on Canadian position re: Khashoggi murder “Canada does not think this case is closed.” It certainly isn’t until the person who ordered the hit is sanctioned under the Global Magnitsky Act.
Replying to @Katie___Simpson
Freeland repeats Canada does not think this case is closed.
