Replying to @yipengGe
And let's not forget Canada is sending TNT to the US that is packed in these and other weapons - Canada could very well be an active particpant in the supply chain for this very weapon. #cdnpoli oxfam.ca/story/canada-is-sti…

I’m devastated to hear the Dr. Rizk Abou Sheira has been killed in the bombing of Nasser Medical Complex. Dr. Rizk was in the American Doctor documentary operating and serving his people. He lost his life doing that, he lost his life because he was doing that.

Unbearable. Gaza screams for us to break the siege.
I hope you are all sleeping safely in your homes, surrounded by your families. I hope every child has warm clothes and every parent can provide the care their children need. I hope your children have umbrellas, raincoats, and rain boots for school. I hope your cities are prepared to respond to winter emergencies. Of course, sharing this news will change nothing for our families in Gaza, just as the warnings issued days ago changed nothing. Tonight, at 8:30 p.m., as families slept on the ground inside their tents, a massive landslide of soil and rocks buried at least two families in Deir al-Balah. The victims have been identified as: Habiba Hossam al-Zain, 4 years old Reem Hossam al-Zain Ibrahim Hossam al-Zain Salah Nabhan, 7 years old Mariam Nabhan The mothers of these five children remain in critical condition. The father of the first three children had already been killed by Israel. I hope everyone has heat in their homes.

#Solidarity with #Cuba: Oppose all blockades! The #CanadaBoattoGaza team stands in solidarity with all efforts to break the illegal U.S. siege and blockade on Cuba. Denying fuel, medicines, and critical supplies to an entire population amounts to collective punishment that threatens to create famine-like conditions and an entirely avoidable #humanitarian catastrophe, in #Cuba as in #Gaza. #EndGlobalApartheid #EndCubaBlockade canadaboatgaza.org/2026/11/1…

Remembrance Day was founded to abolish war. We must refuse to let the day be used to glorify war or celebrate its acceleration but instead mark it by remembering ALL victims of war and taking action to end it. See thread below for some actions you can take to oppose war.

I can’t personally vet individual fundraisers, so I encourage anyone looking to donate to check out organizations like LL4Gaza and @sameerproject. At the same time, we need to recognize that fundraising alone cannot address the structural problem of humanitarian aid sitting at the border while Palestinians are deprived of basic necessities. This is a political crisis, not merely a humanitarian one. No amount of fundraising can substitute for ending the system and policies responsible for these conditions.
🚨 🆘 🌧️ The situation in Gaza has reached a critical point. Flooding is destroying what remains of shelters, people are enduring prolonged exposure to cold, wet conditions, and virtually no one is spared - not the sick, the children, or the elderly. In these conditions, direct family support can no longer be deferred. Local organisations on the ground are unable to reach most of Gaza or address the specific needs of individual families. Continuous support through family survival appeals has therefore become essential. These funds allow families to obtain winter clothing, buy rainproof tents, repair shelters, cover medical costs, pay rent to avoid being forced onto flooded streets, and meet other urgent requirements. lifeline4gaza.com currently lists over 2,800 confirmed appeals from Gaza. Some of the least-supported appeals have received no donations for nearly four months. The list is sorted in real time by least supported, so donors do not need to select individual cases. Contributions directed to the appeals currently at the top allow the system to automatically advance the next least-supported appeals. Given the scale and urgency of the crisis, it is necessary that lifeline4gaza.com be more widely known and supported. The longer these appeals remain without attention, the longer families continue without the critical assistance required in the present conditions. Those able to do so are urged to share the site and direct others to it.

Avi is absolutely right. The super-rich threaten but rarely actually leave when you raise their taxes -- as tax expert Neil Brooks & I show in our new book "Cancelling Billionaires Before They Cancel Us: The Urgent Case for a Wealth Tax."
Avi Lewis defends a wealth tax: "This is an idea that addresses the fundamental inequality and the danger of inequality in our society because if we don't do something, people are going to believe in this country that the economy just doesn't work for them."

Do you remember this paramedic? He went out to save lives, but was killed alongside two of his colleagues in an Israeli airstrike while evacuating civilians in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza
A Palestinian paramedic broke down in tears over the Israeli massacres of civilians in Gaza. If even paramedics can no longer hold back their tears, imagine the horror innocent people are enduring.

"Even if Gaza were provided with the finest tents, they would not last through the winter. What people are waiting for is a political solution that makes their lives less catastrophic, not another season of temporary aid."
لو تم تجهيز غزة بأفضل الخيام فلن تصمد حتى آخر الشتاء، ما ينتظره الناس هو حل سياسي يجعل حياتهم أقل كارثية، بدل المساعدات الموسمية.

Palestinian children now enduring their fourth winter of this! Fourth.
As heavy rain & cold hit #Gaza, families and their #children are facing devastating conditions in makeshift tents with little protection. @UNICEF is doing what we can to support but much more needs to be done. Access for all aid & more funding is vital. Children cannot wait.

Omg HAHA the finance minister walks up while NDP Leader Avi Lewis is live on air speaking to David Cochrane. Avi immediately starts pressing him on giving way more in deductions to big business than they’re spending on affordability measures for Canadians 👀👀👀

This whole conversation is incredible, and a reminder that we’ve never seen Pierre Poilievre or Mark Carney communicate policy on this level.
David Cochrane and Avi Lewis discuss affordable housing: "I do not have a scintilla of faith in right-wing governments that have been slashing social services and driving people onto the streets to actually provide adequate wraparound services if the feds pay for the housing."

If you're a billionaire, this budget is Christmas come early. Canadians are struggling with the cost of everything — groceries, rent, medication, and everything in between. But this budget only makes it easier for the same corporations fuelling the crisis to profit even more.

Canada’s federal budget is out on Thursday and will likely be a corporate wishlist of weapons, AI, fossil fuels, and tax cuts. But the @CCPA has crunched the numbers to propose an alternative federal budget for working people. Saima Desai runs through 10 of their proposals.

Il est temps de lancer des projets d'intérêt national pour le peuple. En vue du budget 2026, nous demandons aux libéraux de donner la priorité à trois grands projets qui réduiront les coûts et amélioreront la vie de millions de familles, le tout financé par un impôt sur la fortune pour les 1 % les plus riches. • Faire un investissement initial pour bâtir un réseau de 50 épiceries publiques. • Tripler les investissements du gouvernement fédéral dans le logement communautaire afin de construire un million de logements hors marché pour les gens. • Faire un investissement structurant pour le pays dans notre système de santé, y compris le financement de l'assurance-médicaments d’un océan à l’autre. Lisez ma lettre complète adressée au premier ministre Carney.

Dockworkers went on strike across 113 ports in 22 countries to disrupt the transport of weapons of war, in solidarity with the Palestinian people. New Yorkers stand with them. When working people unite in their power, we build a better world. Dockworkers do not work for war. reuters.com/business/world-a…
