Canadian products being used to commit war crimes in Gaza, Sudan, and the Caribbean, but stopping this apparently wrong because it would hurt… the arms industry among other things . We are governed by ghouls.
NEW: A leaked briefing note shows the Mark Carney government fears that regulating arms exports to the USA might upset the Americans. A recent report confirmed that the US loophole is a major channel through which Canadian arms are being sent to Israel.

Co-wrote this piece with the brilliant @minlayla77 and Ismail Adam of the Darfur Diaspora Association, on Canada's complicity in the war in Sudan and the genocide in Darfur

The massacres of civilians in Sudan are being fuelled by Canadian weapons, mining interests, and refugee restrictions. It’s time for Canada to end its complicity

Public options are key for solving the affordability crisis, an essential ingredient of antifascist economic policy. @avilewis is bringing @ZohranKMamdani’s winning playbook to Canada. It’s a global movement. The NDP could play an important part.

We need an NDP that's willing to take on the corporate oligarchs in this country and use public ownership to actually deliver for working people— lowering costs for groceries, telecoms, housing, banking, and pharma. @avilewis has a plan for that 👇 https://t.co/BZFQS4JzEX

Adding up all the war funding - Budget 2025 pours ~$89 billion into military, weapons, NATO deployments & border militarization - almost the size of Manitoba's entire GDP. MOST OF THIS MONEY - OUR MONEY - WILL GO TO ARMS MANUFACTURERS.

Air Canada flight attendants on Saturday overwhelmingly voted against the airline's latest wage offer, their union said — a vote that's expected to have no impact on flight operations.

Stop what you’re doing and watch this immediately. Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived. They are demanding action from Mark Carney. Their testimony is our failure.

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds out to shut down CANSEC. We’ve fully blocked the road access and are also disrupting attendees at pedestrian entrances as they try to enter Canada's biggest arms fair early this morning. The companies arming genocide are here but they can’t get in!

The scale of the horror is beyond apocalyptic. There is nowhere for sick, broken, maimed, starving, battered, burned, traumatized, exhausted people young and old and orphaned, to go. No homes. No hospitals. No schools. No sanctuary. No safe zones. It is unfathomable. #Gaza

David Yager, director of the supposedly arm’s-length Alberta Energy Regulator, has received at least four sole-source contracts totalling nearly $500,000, two from the executive or cabinet, which the premier heads. Very independent. #ableg

David Yager calls himself the premier’s ‘special adviser.’ He also serves as board director for the supposedly arm’s-length AER.

The annihilation of the NDP is absolutely not the death of the Left in Canada, as some are suggesting. It could clear a path for a rebirth of the Left in Canada.
