Nous étions nombreux à Frelighsburg le long de la frontière USA-CAN à braver le vent et la neige.
Nombreux à dénoncer des politiques injustes et des discours dangereux de la maison Blanche.
Ce n'est qu'un DÉBUT!!! #8mars #journéeInternationaleDuDroitDesFemmes #TrumpPasGentil

Solidarité le long de la frontière USA-CAN à Frelighsburg route 237.

Des discours en soutien aux femmes et contre les politiques dangereuses de Trump et son administration.

20 minutes de marche le long de la 237 à Frelighsburg pour se rendre à la frontière USA-CAN

The generals and admirals at Quantico today should be forgiven if they walked out of the auditorium and wondered: What on earth is wrong with the commander in chief?

Trump put on a disturbing show for America’s generals and admirals.

Les coupes idéologiques en science par les États-Unis vont nous plonger dans un chaos indescriptible. Exemple pour les Grands-Lacs.

La coopération Canada–États-Unis sur les Grands Lacs vacille

Le démantèlement du secteur fédéral de la science, aux États-Unis, fragilise cette coopération. Les chercheurs à qui Découverte a parlé sont inquiets.

Y'a vraiment des perles de citations dans cet article notamment: « Je suis déçu d’être venu au Canada, un Canada où il est extrêmement difficile de trouver des Canadiens passionnés par les relations canado-américaines." 🙄🙄🙄 on se demande vraiment pourquoi ?

Des commentaires de l'animateur sur l'homme accusé d'avoir tué Charlie Kirk sont à l'origine de la décision.

Major Secret Service security failure, as Trump left terrified and panicked by protestors that got within a few feet of him. Lucky for him these were peaceful protestors.

Millions of US people have had their lives ruined or endangered by the Trump regime and oppose its fascist rule.

Trump promised to be a dictator on day one. We’re now past day 200

Donald Trump’s second term has seen a sustained assault on democratic institutions – political, judicial, media, cultural, academic – that appears to be only accelerating

Please watch this in its entirety

Trump has installed dozens of men who follow this ideology into the highest levels of his administration, including Pete Hegseth, who leads the Department of Defense.

This is the doctrine Republicans want all Americans to live by.

alt text continued:

Ahlam, located in the south of the enclave, is holding on “to testify” as long as she can. “Every time I leave the tent to cover an event, do an interview or document a story, I don’t know if I’ll come back alive.” Her biggest issue, she confirms, is the lack of food and water.

We are watching their situation get worse. They’re young but their strength is leaving them. Most are no longer physically able to get around the enclave to do their work. Their heartbreaking cries for help are now daily.

For the past few days, we have only received very brief messages from them, when they have the strength to send any. Their courage, considered heroic by the rest of the world, is now their only hope of survival.

We may hear about their deaths at any moment, and this is unbearable.

This Sunday, Bashar wrote: “For the first time, I feel defeated.” Later that day, he said he would thank us “for explaining that we live day to day between death and hunger.” “I wish President Macron would help me get out of this hell.”

Ahlam is still holding on. “I try to keep exercising my profession, to speak for the voiceless, to document the truth despite all the attempts to silence it. Here, resistance isn’t a choice: it’s a necessity.”

Since AFP was founded in 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, some have been injured, others taken prisoner. But none of us remember witnessing colleagues die of hunger".
