Just a re-up of Jesse Brown’s attacks against me when he accused me of “stoking racial animus”. Bc Palestine 🇵🇸 Jesse has attacked women and WOC/POC mainly. These are the same demographics that Jesse used to build his brand and business. Use, discard and blame. Rinse and repeat
So Jesse Brown emailed The Hill Times like the Karen he is to try and get me fired by saying my tweets were “stoking racial animosity”. First off, have you met me? Second, my thread was an observation on the racial constructs of power and…🧵

Doug Ford is so confident that the on-going corruption by his @OntarioPCParty government will be completely overlooked by the @OPP_News that he is openly mocking us, and them.
The OPP is investigating a company that received millions from the Skills Dev Fund. It was Doug’s govt that awarded funds to that company. On the weekend, Ford shows up at a Xmas photo op in an OPP hoodie.😳 I wonder how this investigation will turn out?👮‍♂️

If only Canada would stop supplying weapons contributing to the genocide of the Palestinian people.
Today, Canada recognises the State of Palestine.

It’s weird tbh, like how can something be newsworthy in French (Le Devoir, RadCan) and in the United States (WIRED) but not to Canadian English-language journalists? They seem to have a huge blind spot in reporting about far-right extremism and gamergatey harassment.
Nice to see an article about @atRachelGilmore in today's Devoir. Predictably, there is no similar coverage in English. When I was targeted by the same people, the same thing happened -- full page story in Le Soleil and silence in English.

Israel’s genocide, ethnic cleansing, deliberate starvation of Gazans, killing of over 20,000 children, destruction of hospitals, schools and universities. Inexplicably these atrocities don’t meet the Government of Canada’s threshold for summoning Israel’s ambassador to Canada.

Minister Anand says it would be “imprudent” to comment on Israel’s genocide, but apparently finds it prudent enough to keep selling them arms
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.

What is cowardly is @MarkJCarney’s refusal to sanction Israel at least as harshly as Canada has sanctioned Russia. Carney is complicit in Israel’s genocide and has zero moral authority to lecture others about human rights.
Russia brutally attacked Ukraine last night, killing innocent civilians in residential areas and damaging the Cabinet of Ministers building. My thoughts are with the injured and everyone who is mourning their loved ones. A just and lasting peace for Ukraine will require robust and credible security guarantees. Last night's cowardly attack underscores the urgency of that mission. I was honoured to stand with President Zelenskyy in Kyiv late last month as Ukraine marked its Independence Day. As I affirmed alongside Prime Minister Svyrydenko in the same building that was damaged last night, Canada stands with Ukraine and Putin’s unrelenting aggression will never weaken our resolve. Canada is steadfast in its commitment to the Coalition of the Willing and its willingness to deploy direct and scalable military assistance in support of upholding a ceasefire and lasting peace.

Yesterday Israel killed 86 Palestinians.
Canada condemns the terrorist attack in East Jerusalem today that has taken civilian lives and injured so many. Canadians extend our deepest condolences to the victims’ families and loved ones, and we are keeping the people of Israel in our thoughts. Together with our partners and allies, we will keep working with urgency and determination in support of lasting peace and security for the region.

Now do one about this terrorist attack. xitter.cf/assalrad/status/196474…
Israel is destroying Gaza City to force Palestinians off their land. These are homes being flattened, blatant war crimes for everyone to see and world “leaders” do nothing to stop it.

This is what Carney was always working towards. Canada will become Canada Inc. where public money will find a lot of these projects and yet the economic gains from it will be remitted to its shareholders (sovereign wealth funds, asset management, hedge funds, etc)
this article talks a lot about the G7 and how well-positioned Canada is to lead global critical minerals talks because of how many mining companies we have, but completely neglects talking about all the countries and workers we exploit for those minerals, esp in the Global South

Canada was one of the architects of the international justice system and now the Liberal government is silent. This is an unacceptable betrayal by Anand & Carney. xitter.cf/geoffreyyork/status/19…
Relatively small countries, such as Finland, are vocally defending the ICC from Trump's latest sanctions. But Canada, a G7 member and one of the first countries to push for the ICC's creation in the 1990s, has said nothing -- even after a Canadian judge was sanctioned this week.

Absolute fucking cowards. We have known that Israel's been starving Gaza for a long time now. And the Globe caves to an Israeli lobby group to sanitize it?
The @globeandmail published an editor's note stating that calling the famine in Gaza "forced starvation" was "inaccurate." This followed a pressure campaign by pro-Israel group HonestReporting Canada. Amnesty, UN, WHO, and others all say it is man-made famine imposed by Israel.

The propaganda is wild. None of this would be happening if Air Canada actually compensated their workers for their full hours of work. Flight attendants are only paid for their hours in the air. That means they aren't paid for any prep or when there are layovers or delays.
As of 8 pm EDT on August 15, 2025, this is the operational wind down impact due to the impending CUPE strike: Total flights cancelled: 623 People impacted: 100,100 For information on options if you are scheduled to travel soon: aircanada.com/action

Hold itself accountable? Economist, you drunk? Atrocity perpetrators don’t investigate themselves. There are no criminal investigations into any senior perpetrators of atrocities in Gaza. None. This is why the ICC and universal jurisdiction cases are needed.
Israel’s war no longer has a strategy and fighting on is no longer just. If it is to remain a liberal democracy, it must hold itself to account for the crimes committed in Gaza econ.st/41qOYJx
