A sham dressed as diplomacy! This deal is an absolute joke.

It pardons a regime that has terrorized civilians for two years. Real peace begins with truth: prosecutions for the perpetrators, reparations for survivors, and dismantling the apartheid regime that enabled this violence for 77 years.

The only entity that needs deradicalization and disarmament is the one committing genocide: Israel.

Zionism is the sin, genocide is the crime.

Any deal that shields its officials, officers, and soldiers from justice is complicity. By backing it, Canada signs a blood-pact—a stain on us all.

Nooran Renzayi devrait être en vie aujourd’hui, en route vers l’école retrouver ses ami·e·s.

Mais il a été tué par la police, qui prétendait qu’il était armé. Aucune arme n’a été trouvée.

Une vie volée, une famille brisée. Justice pour Nooran ! #JusticePourNooran #qcpol #cdnpoli

Congratulations on “recognizing” Palestine 77 years and a genocide later.

Now actually do something to make sure that Palestinian lives and land are protected.

Like sanction Israel.
Break diplomatic ties.
Rescind the CIFTA.
Impose a full two way arms embargo.
Send Cdn forces.

They want submission. They want us to answer their hateful and harmful rhetoric with “thoughts and prayers”.

We will answer with combativeness, courage, solidarity and utter resolve that we will uproot their politics of hate.

The far right will be and must be beaten. Another world is possible.

Kirk’s assassination will be weaponized by Trump and the far right. They’ll turn it into fuel for their authoritarian projet—more repression, more hate, more fascism.

We must meet them head-on, fight fire with fire and confront the extreme right whenever they march! #politics #cdnpoli

Charlie Kirk is dead. But the far-right machine he built—racism, misogyny, queer/trans hatred and fascist propaganda—still poisons our society.

He may be gone, but the structures he fed remain. Our task is clear: confront them head-on and rip them out root and branch. #politics #cdnpoli

Minister Anand there is nothing to “evaluate”; Canada should’ve cut diplomatic ties with Israel years ago.

After 23 months of genocide now we hear “strong rhetoric” from our government.

Hundreds of thousands of died because of our cowardice. We will never forget, we will never forgive! #cdnpoli

The biggest “Narcostate” in the world is the United States.

OxyContin is still ravaging communities across the world.

The difference between “Cartels” and companies like Purdue is that the later finances both Reps&Dems.

The “War on Drugs” is just an excuse. Don’t fall for it! #Cdnpoli

American intervention has never worked.

Let’s repeat that for the people in the back: American intervention has never worked.

As Trump makes moves to violate Venezuelan and Mexican sovereignty in the name of the fake “war on drugs”.

We must stand against American intervention! #cdnpoli

Carney’s real colours are shinning through.

Canada voted for an alternative to Trump and what did we get? the Cdn wish version of Ronald Reagan.

A government of bosses will always side with bosses against you!

It’s time we elect a government of workers and that will stand w workers! #cdnpoli

Niall Ricardo @niallricardo.bsky.social · Aug 17

Instead of trampling rights with back-to-work laws and forcing poverty wages on flight attendants, this government should legislate the nationalization of Air Canada and claw back the millions in public money management handed themselves in bonuses over the years.

La violence policière qui s’est produite hier à la marche Rad Pride, alors qu’elle n’avait même pas commencé, est inacceptable !

Mtl se dit être une des villes les plus « queer friendly » au monde, le memo s’est pas rendu à la SPVM qui matraque et gas les personnes queers pendant la « fierté » !

On ignore encore les détails et il faut refuser toute spéculation ou tentative de récupération politique pour attiser la division.

Soyons clairs aucune personne visiblement juive ne devrait être agressée parce qu’elle est juive, et aucun père devant ses enfants.

Solidarité! #PolCan #QcPol

Entre oct. 2023 et janv. 2024, le Canada a exporté 21 M$ en bombes, roquettes et munitions vers Israël. En 2025, 175 000 cartouches de plus. Marjorie Michel a nié tout ça en campagne. Elle a menti. Va-t-elle enfin dénoncer le génocide ou continuer à le couvrir ? #canpol

Niall Ricardo @niallricardo.bsky.social · Jul 29

Mark Carney says he stands for human rights — yet Canada pours $1.8 billion into trade with a genocidal apartheid regime.
You can’t fund genocide and pretend to care.
If Carney and this government are serious about Gaza, they’ll cancel the free trade deal and cut every tie with Israel. Now. #cdnpoli

Le Canada dit vouloir mettre fin à la "crise humanitaire" à Gaza — tout en maintenant 1,8 milliard $ en échanges commerciaux avec un état génocidaire.

Si ce gouvernement veut vraiment arrêter le génocide, qu’il commence par suspendre l’accord de libre-échange et couper tout commerce avec Israël.

Niall Ricardo @niallricardo.bsky.social · Jul 27

The red line shouldn’t be famine.

It was 76 years of occupation, 18 years of blockade.

The West pushes “statehood” as a PR stunt to cleanse their guilt.

Palestinians don’t ask for pity—only liberation.

No matter the rhetorical tricks this is our red line:Palestine free from the river to the sea.

Niall Ricardo @niallricardo.bsky.social · Jul 25

Carney is treating the most egregious crime against humanity since the Shoah as yet another “conflict” that can be resolved by nonsensical statements about a “two state solution” and the “recognition of Palestinian state”…

There will be no Palestinian state if you’re not willing to defend it. 3/3

In the 1990s Canada alongside NATO allies bombed Serbian military positions in Kosovo to prevent ethnic cleansing and genocide.

In a just world, where human-rights of all people, of the Palestinian people, actually mattered, we would be bombing Israeli military positions right now. 2/3

At this point anything less than the breaking of diplomatic ties with Israel—a state that is imposing mass starvation on over 2 million Palestinians—is cowardice!

Our PM once again sends out a tweet. This government has been sending out tweets for 20 months… 20 months of genocide #cdnpoli 1/3

Conservative Platform:
-Criminalize immigration and migrants;
-Ram through pipelines;
-Increase military spending;
-Unwavering support for Israel.

Mark Carney in power:
-Ditto for all first three points;
-Tacit instead of enthusiastic support of Israel.

Thank god we elected the Liberals!

Un prof Canadien décède dans une cellule de ICE et pendant ce temps notre PM se fait le petit laquais de Trump.

Pendant la campagne j’ai demandé la fin de l’accord de tiers pays sûr avec les États-Unis.

Tenir tête à Trump, ce n’est pas juste un exercice esthétique, il faut du courage M. Carney.
