If you denounce the Iranian massacre of protesters, but not the Gaza genocide, you're wrong

If you denounce the Gaza genocide, but not the Iranian massacre of protesters, you're wrong

The very same applies to the US invasion of Iraq, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine

It's called *consistency*.

What should Canada do as U.S. oil blockade weakens Cuba? | Hanomansing Tonight
YouTube video by CBC News What should Canada do as U.S. oil blockade weakens Cuba? | Hanomansing Tonight

some people need it spelled out in nationalistic terms, but overall, this was a very good watch from CBC.

The United States is attempting to kill Cuba.
This is colonialism.
This is imperialism.
It is fascism.

Canada must stand up for the right of Cuba to its sovereignty and breach the blockade.

Observations from Montreal An ever-changing collection of commentary and observations by Montrealers or about Montreal politics and culture.

MAGA and their Conservative collaborators are the biggest threat to Canada right now.

โ€œThe CPC is supposed to represent Canadian citizens โ€” not the interests of the Trump organization. It begs the question: Does Canada have a Conservative Party, or a foreign interference party?โ€

The Epstein files got this out of control because people donโ€™t believe women. A patriarchy requires deference to men no matter what and it has resulted in a pedophile operation so wide reaching not a country in this world will remain unaffected.

Today is the anniversary of when the Canadian flag flew for the first time at Parliament Hill in 1965.
From September to October 1964, the Special Flag Committee reviewed 3,541 flag entries from Canadians.
Here are just a few of the rejected designs.

I organized a protest against ICE and Quebecโ€™s own complicity in profiting off of said agency today.

That protest got brutalized to hell and back by the Montreal police.

Garrison Settee says feds have to be better at handling crisis Garrison Sette, the grand chief of Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak, says Canada has to come up with a system to better deal with crisis.

Nearly 33,000 people were forced from their homes in Manitoba due to wildfires in the spring and summer of 2025; the majority of them were from northern First Nations.

Somebody asked me if it's Black History Month in Canada right now, and yes, it is.

It's actually the 30th year of BHM being recognized nationally, all thanks to this woman: the Hon. Jean Augustine, the first Black woman elected to the House of Commons.
