It's dubbed the "None is to many" law. Canada sends asylum seekers back to the United States under a treaty that's supposed to protect their rights. We know it's not happening. Canada has legal obligations here. My latest substack. Free to read. Free to subscribe. open.substack.com/pub/caroloff...

Canada stands with the EU & a host of nations that respects the ICC & abides by its rulings. All war criminals and those who commit crimes against humanity - BE THEY HAMAS OR ISREALI LEADERS - must be called out and face justice. Nationality doesn't confer immunity. Religion doesn't infer morality.

Wow! A MASSIVE crowd at Gore Park Line for people suffering in hunger and homelessness! We gave out hot meals/produce, pantry, SPCA pet food and vet care. I met working families who can’t make ends meet, seniors who said it’s a lifesaver, and guests who are homeless. #Onpoli #CanadaSky #Hamont 🥹

Canada is sending refugees back to the US -- a regime that violates their rights and deports women and children. We have obligations to those people. It's time we honoured them. Mr. Carney, tear down that wall. My latest substack. open.substack.com/pub/caroloff...

Canada Post wants to create a new class of flexible, part-time worker that will better compete with Amazon and implement “dynamic routing” so delivery routes can be changed on the fly. It’s a good example of how Amazon degrades workers’ rights even beyond its walls. Workers are right to push back.

Another brilliant piece by @caroloff.bsky.social It explains why the "Strong Borders Act" or Bill C-2 is a regressive bill being put forward by the Liberal government. Instead of this bill, let's strengthen our asylum claims processing system and scrap the STCA. substack.com/home/post/p-...

I will never not see Covid vaccines in 2021 as a miracle. As a moonshot. "A new analysis published late last week in Vaccine concludes that COVID-19 vaccination averted 12,806 COVID-19 deaths among Belgians aged 65 years and older from 2021 through 2023."

Yesterday, at 87, my dad & former Ontario NDP leader Stephen Lewis, stood for an hour by the road in his old riding. As a Jewish elder, he stood against genocide embodying the values he has always championed. I am so proud to see him on the right side of history – as always. ❤️

I actually want to say this really loudly because I am not seeing other non-Jews say it enough. The Israeli diplomat shooting was an antisemitic hate crime. Yes, most allegations of antisemitism within the anti-genocide movement are bullshit. THIS was antisemitism parading as anti-genocide.
