Palestinians are parents, aunts, uncles, siblings, grandparents, and cousins. They love their families. Palestinian families have been erased. Children have been orphaned. Parents lost their kids

Obama chose dehumanization when he said the suffering of "Israeli families and the people of Gaza"

I send you in a faint voice full of fatigue and despair. If you stop donations, we will waste our lives inside our worn-out tent. No food, no clothing, no blankets, no work. Do not break my kids hearts. They need $250 urgently to secure them.

i hated (read as heartbreaking) how enormously true that was every time i've spent time in estonia

the flip-side being how utterly REFRESHING are places like cairo marrakech and mexico city

No... Israel is far more violent, destructive, murderous, it's also got a lot more support and arms. Diplomatic cover has allowed it to continue it's mass murder spree for years.

Israel is objectively way way worse than ISIS.

So you are equating Israel with ISIS? T

Why did you stop supporting us?

Even with the ceasefire, our pain hasn't ended. I lost my home and my job. I'm now homeless and homeless. My children are without clothes and without food.
Please, don't turn your backs on us.
Your support could save us.

Canadian exceptionalists, your precious Liberal government didn't care that Canadian citizens were kidnapped by Israel. Don't fall for the lies and BS of haunting weapons and "recognizing Palestine"

They still send weapons to Israel and don't support Palestinian liberation.

I better not see any losers who failed to talk about the Indigenous woman kidnapped by Israel turn around throw a performative fit about Trump saying he's bringing back Columbus Day

Bon!En plus!🤷🏻Si ça vient de lui cette division «Nous» et «Eux»! Ça confirme donc ce que mon oncle m’expliquait que Parizeau disait être capable de faire l’indépendance par eux-mêmes les «de souche» sans avoir besoin des «Autres» (les immigrants et non de souche), mais pubs de lèche «cœur québécois».

“It’s François Legault who gave the OQLF more power to punish businesses with massive fines and repeat inspections via Bill 96. The department still engages in the systemic harassment of small businesses under the guise of ‘protecting French.’”

Quebec needs to finally put petty language politics aside for the good of the province

New hate crime law is a cover for suppressing Palestine protests ⋆ The Breach

The proposed 'Combatting Hate Act' is built on the idea that protests inspire hateful violence, and gives police the tools to crack down on expression

First Nation leaders in northern Ontario have declared a state of emergency in response to the ongoing flow of illegal drugs and rising deaths in their communities.

The declaration follows what Nishnawbe Aski Nation says was a drug-related shooting in Ginoogaming First Nation.

Shelter-in-place, fatal shooting and illegal drugs trigger emergency

In Canadian residential schools they killed newborn Indigenous children and put them into incinerators. Often times the "father" of these children were priests who raped the girls who were at residential schools.

Sugarcane (2024)

An investigation into abuse and missing children at an Indian residential school in Canada ignites a reckoning on the nearby Sugarcane Reserve.
