We all know that ICE is violating human rights in the U.S.
But did you know a Canadian company is profiting off ICE? And that this same company has been ramping up its lobbying efforts?
Now, in my latest for @thetyee.ca, the government won't tell me if this is a red line for procurement:

![Headlien: Zakharova says growing evidence shows Ukraine’s support for terrorist groups in the Sahel
Published: 08.10.2025, 05:45
Text:
There is increasing evidence that Ukraine is supporting terrorist groups in the Sahara–Sahel region of Africa, including proof of drone supplies to militants, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said during a briefing.
“There is mounting evidence that the Zelensky regime is supporting terrorist groups in the Sahara–Sahel region of Africa. The security bloc of Libya’s Government of National Unity (GNU), with the mediation of the United Kingdom, has established co-operation with Ukrainian militants, which includes the supply of strike drones by the Kyiv regime and the organisation of training activities by instructors from the Ukrainian Defence Ministry,” the diplomat stated.
Zakharova stressed that, according to the Sudanese Armed Forces, Ukrainian mercenaries are also taking part in fighting in the west of the war-torn country on the side of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) rebels.
“Colonel Fath al-Sayed of Sudanese military intelligence told the media that Ukrainian and Colombian mercenaries fighting on the side of the [RSF] rebels suffered heavy losses in battles in the western part of the country. It is known that they were using, once again, Ukrainian-made drones,” the diplomat said.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tdpns2ajyjp4g5niu4ouczuo/bafkreihjzobzrcdme2vxwcl3y64f6kceum7wfenmxmhpg5xjeilgj2hgr4@jpeg)
