The Carney-PP coalition at work. During the election campaign, Liberal partisans said we had to "Stop PP". Hmmm....stopping PP to implement PP-friendly policies.

What the absolute fuck is this? Carney: 1. If Iran has a nuclear weapon that would be destabilizing to the ME. Because it’s a bedrock of stability now? 2. We support Israel’s right to defend itself. From Iran? Hasn’t Israel been striking them first for over a year? 1/2

Israel’s war on Iran has buried the Gaza genocide in the headlines, but what Israel is doing in Gaza is a stain upon humanity. Don’t stop talking about it.

Liberal white supremacy is the same as any other white supremacy. For context, her sympathetic conversation is with a man butchering #Palestinians daily in an extermination campaign who did exactly what she claims #Russia did: An unprovoked attack on a neighbour. #Genocide7 #G7 #EU #Nato

Althia Raj has some of the best reporting on Carney in the mainstream press. She calls Carney's Bill C-5 "unlike any piece of legislation we have seen in Canada federally." Bill C-5 will strip all checks and balances on development and extraction in Canada. Carney must be stopped.

The March to Gaza has been called off after a tumultuous weekend that saw Canadians detained and deported, passports taken, and more. I spent my weekend speaking with a marcher, Canadian physician @yipengge.bsky.social, who was there for it all. These people tried -- and that matters:

i can’t take the hypocrisy in so much western media coverage of israel’s bombing of iran and iran’s retaliation. israel can do whatever it wants and they’ll find a way to legitimize it, but iran is positioned as fundamentally evil and thus deserving of attack and bloodthirsty in its response.

New Democrats believe Canada must assert an independent foreign and defence policy, one that reflects Canadian values and priorities. That means explicitly rejecting Canadian participation in Trump's Golden Dome. Today we're calling on PM Carney to do exactly that.

Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen. This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple European citizens on board. Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

In 2010, Israeli forces attacked a Gaza aid flotilla, killing 10 people. In the aftermath, the Obama administration blocked UN efforts for an investigation, Biden defended the attack, and Chuck Schumer condemned the United Nations and defended Israel.
