Out tomorrow: Why do states bring cases to the ICJ - even when there’s no jurisdiction? @drnajimagi.bsky.social helps run though the current caseload. Plus with the genocide cases against Myanmar and Israel, are states trying to be useful or just delaying when they make additional interventions?

I've asked Canada Revenue Agency about this issue before, they won't comment on the activities of individual charities due to the "confidentiality provisions of the Income Tax Act"

They note the public can report charities suspected of non-compliant activities here:

When you are flirting with separatism, anything can be un-Canadian

This is dangerous rhetoric. Attempts to delegitimize opponents' right to take part in a conversation inevitably undermine respect on both sides.

It polarizes our politics, undermining trust in democracy, which depends on expressing disagreement.
