I don’t know what to say anymore. As doctors, we can’t stop a genocide and we can’t end a famine. We provided a diagnosis - genocide. We provided a prescription to end the genocide - for Canada to end its complicity and direct involvement in Israel’s crimes now.

What I feared has indeed happened. What I dreaded struck my heart like a shock. Rainwater seeped into my tent until it reached my library and soaked the books. I tried to save them, but there were books I couldn’t reach in time, they were completely soaked and drowned in the

Everything I own was drowned by the rain. Even I myself couldn’t sleep last night. I stood the whole night in a pool of rainwater that flooded my tent. But truly, what broke my heart the most is that I lost my book — the only printed copy of my book in Gaza. Witness to the

Unfortunately, the situation is catastrophic in every sense of the word. But I don’t want to share any photos or videos. I don’t want to show our flooded tents, our mothers’ tears, our children trembling, or our fathers’ anguish. There’s no point in sharing them. For months now,

A world that saw us drowning in blood & stayed silent. what’ll it do when we drown in the rain? Honestly, it’s truly absurd.

Your reading of my book is a great honor for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your constant support for our cause, for humanity, and for the truth.
I just finished reading this book by @wasimsaidharbid, it is a testimony of genocide from people living and dying (killed/murdered) in Gaza. It is so heartbreakingly real and powerful, and it is a call to action. It destroyed me, and to put the pieces together is to fight for

Wasim Said’s “Witness to the Hellfire of Genocide: A Testimony from Gaza” documents a genocide that continues to unfold. It is a record of what the world allowed to happen, and what the world will continue to allow unless we stop it.

Grateful to have spent time today on #HumanRightsDay to listen to @AlexNeve24 speak about universal human rights, including our collective responsibility to fight for them. How silence is not an option. And solidarity as our mantra. Human rights is to be seen, heard, and valued.

Today is Human Rights Day. What are you doing to help tear down walls, and build a longer table for all peoples, towards collective liberation for all from the structural oppression of capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism.

They cancelled the meeting for today, and possibly tomorrow as well. What a mess. The liberals are likely doing damage control over how badly they looked and sounded from yesterday’s committee meeting.
I attended the justice and human rights committee meeting today on Bill C-9, an Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime and access to religious or cultural spaces). And it was a shitshow. Here are some of my observations… The controversial Bill C-9, also

As Gaza is flooded with sewage and rain water with no reprieve for Palestinians in tents, just know that there are hundreds of caravans sitting on the Egyptian side of the border that Israel will not allow in.

This week, NCCM spoke to The National on CBC News about the issues with Bill C-9, which threatens to include an amendment that has been argued could potentially criminalize preaching of the Bible, Qur’an, and other religious texts. Please take a look as we argue for the

Thanks to @atRachelGilmore for testifying at the Standing Committee on the Status of Women on the rise of anti-feminist ideology and its impact on women’s rights, safety, and democratic participation.

What kind of argument is this? If the amendment is “useless” and has zero effect, then why implement it at all? @SeanFraserMP Faith leaders and Canadians see exactly what is happening. The cat is out of the bag. Your statement is nothing more than political spin and damage
Freedom of religion is already fully and robustly protected under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Please see my statement:

Minister of Justice Sean Fraser was asked about Bill C-9 today and the possibility of the amendment to strip the Criminal Code of the protection for free religious speech in Canada. For the record, here is his full statement. While we appreciate that Minister Fraser thinks
