Absolutely horrific.
Canadaโs massive border bill, C12, has been adopted after third reading at Senate.
C-12 will become the country's largest machinery of deportation: deporting refugees without hearings, retroactive bars, and mass status cancellation.
A mirror of anti-migrant ICE violence.
Weaving our Worlds has compiled resources and diverse left perspectives from and on Iran. Rather than reduce Iran to various intra-left ideological debates, these provide analysis based in the context, specificity and history.

Parliament rejected a bill to close the loophole in Canadaโs arms exports to the U.S. The result? Canadian weapons components can still move through U.S. supply chains into Israelโs wars.

Incredible victory! After years of organizing across Canada, Scotia Bank has divested from Elbit Systems!

Happy to see my article published in JGR. I propose df of fascism as the ripple effect of global&local colonial practices, imprinted in civilizational &securitization discourses, which manifest as cascading racialization spilling from the centre to the periphery www.tandfonline.com/eprint/WPGZM...
I get that everyone who is in the know knows this already but I am quite happy for a publication to be surfacing it again, especially for readers who may not be aware
โThe largest displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank in one operation since the 1967 war.โ
Members of the American Indian Movement and the Many Shields Warrior Society are patrolling the streets of Minneapolis.

โUruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewablesโat half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhereโif governments have the courage to change the rules.โ
New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant
