Canada has finally said it will acknowledge a Palestinian state, in September, if certain conditions are met.
But what does this actually mean?
I reached out to several folks who follow this issue closely.

I'm so glad my former professional association, the Canadian Association of Journalists, went out of their way to defend the press freedom of these "journalists."
Now this harassment is a "related story" to their writeup of the CAJ's support.
It honestly just makes me so sad.

Canada’s foreign affairs minister has hit back at a bombshell report on Canadian arms shipments to Israel, calling it “flawed.”
But is it?
I reached out to the authors, and it seems like Minister Anand might be the one with some flawed information…

I reached out to Canada’s foreign affairs minister’s office yesterday to get a comment on the U.S. slapping sanctions on the UN’s special rapporteur on Palestine, Francesca Albanese.
What they ended up saying about this latest attack on international law was…timid, to say the least:

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

This is what we mean when we say that RGK Jr and his gaggle of flunkies are pushing soft eugenics. Look at that phrasing: “only very sick kids should die from measles. “
Why the fuck should ANY CHILD die from measles? Why is a sick child worth less than a well one?

It’s day 23 of the federal election campaign, which means election day is just two weeks away!
As usual, the leaders vying for your vote have been busy little bees — we've got drama involving buttons, Canadian DOGE, and Tout Le Monde en Parle.
Oh, and the girls, as they say, are fighting:

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

DOGE cut off payments for the electricity, cell phone, and internet service of U.S. government employees who work in a high-risk area in Central America.
Meanwhile, DOGE apparently plans to spend $25,000 to install a washer and dryer for their own personal use in a federal office building in DC.

1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour
