This is horrific and heartbreaking, on a day meant to honour culture and community. We are with the Filipino community on this day, and every day.

Thank you to our first responders who are on the scene.

Of note:

β€œPrime Minister Mark Carney”. Not β€œGovernor Carney of our 51st State”. In fact, no hint of annexation threats here at all.

Also says conversation was productive and agreeable.

I think we’ve got the right man in the PMO, right now. I think we should keep it that way.

Negativity isn't going to win a trade war.

Negativity won't pay the rent or the mortgage.

Negativity won't bring down the price of groceries.

Negativity won't make Canada Strong.

Please use your health benefits! If you are lucky enough to have extended health care benefits, please use them! Resource yourself AND flow funds into your local community through support of healthcare workers, like counselors, RMTs, physios, dentists and optometrists.

Jury Finds Greenpeace Liable for Hundreds of Millions in Damages (Gift Article) A lawsuit by pipeline giant Energy Transfer claimed Greenpeace had played a major, costly role in protests nearly a decade ago. Greenpeace has said a loss could put it out of business.

"Natali Segovia is the executive director of Water Protector Legal Collective, an Indigenous- led legal and advocacy nonprofit that grew out of the Standing Rock protests. […] β€œAt its core, it’s a proxy war against Indigenous sovereignty using an international environmental organization,” she said."

This is unacceptable, and as an identifiably Jewish academic, I have to say: Not in my name. I refuse to be the government’s excuse for xenophobia, Islamophobia, and anti-Palestinian racism. This is not for my safety, and it never will be.
