βWe own Gaza nowβ: Inside an Israeli interrogation room at the Rafah border crossing
Palestinians returning to Gaza from Egypt report being beaten, tortured, and humiliated by Israeli border agents and pressured to collaborate with Israel as informants.
Waterloo police ask for publicβs help in finding missing Cambridge man
A verified photo from Gaza August 2025, of a child victim of famine, wearing only a diaper. It's hard to say their age. No expression on their tiny face. Their arms are like matchsticks. Every rib is visible.
Canadian health workers, please speak out against man-made famine: sign this letter to the government, from the newly formed Canadian coalition of health workers groups
All HCWs: PSWs, paramedics, nurses, doctors, OT, PT, etc
And students and retirees
Please share

A must watch.
Here on Israeli TV we have blatant racism and extreme dehumanizing rhetoric against Palestinians.
And exhortations for more war crimes against civilians to 'finish the job'.
But western reporters and politicians still refuse to use the term "genocide". Or take action to #StopIsrael.
Dear @mark-carney.bsky.social
These young people are going to Gaza to try and stop the murder of children.
That they have to put their live on the line reflects the absolute failure of the west, the G7, Canada.
Call the Israeli embassy and warn them not to harm these children.
The world watches.
Absolutely. The world watches. There are reports now that a drone is seen circling above them. The threats against them are real.
I donβt know what to say anymore. As doctors, we canβt stop a genocide and we canβt end a famine.
We provided a diagnosis - genocide.
We provided a prescription to end the genocide - for Canada to end its complicity and direct involvement in Israelβs crimes now.
Must see this song:

"I want to raise my kids in a country that is not tilting towards a fascist dictatorship." Philosopher Jason Stanley is leaving Yale and taking up a position at the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy.
This speaks volumes:
Yale professors, Timothy Snyder, a historian of totalitarianism and the author of "On Tyranny," and Jason Stanley, a philosopher and the author of "How Fascism Works", move to Canada.

Exactly this. Anyone who thinks Bibi commits these atrocities for ideological reasons doesnβt understand Bibi. Heβs been indicted and 10/7 happened just as he was trying to push through VERY unpopular judicial coup/reforms (people protesting in every city in massive numbers for 9 mos leading up +

Why won't Donald Trump shut up about Canada?
Because he wants to dominate the continent. And we're in the way. This is war by other means.

Here's a wake up call for many.
First they came for the humanities, but we scientists didn't stand up because it didn't affect us.
Then they came for the students protesting genocide, but we didn't stand up because it didn't affect us.
Then they came for our funding, and there was no one left to stand up for us.
Trump makes it clear that the tariffs are about annexation.
Have no illusions. This is not about tariffs, it is about our sovereignty. Vimy or Vichy π¨π¦, choose.
3/ If you only received one vaccine (everyone prior to 1970 did) you can take this article and, regardless of your titres, ask for a measles booster.
I did.
Also, many thanks to @deonandan.bsky.social and @kidsdoc1.bsky.social for your excellent and timely info on measles.
Better air quality = fewer illnesses = fewer school staff and student sick days = cost savings and better learning.
Better air quality = better focus = higher test scores.
Itβs a no-brainer.
Clean. The. Air.
So far the @ondp.bsky.social is the only party taking this issue seriously.
Welpβ¦so a couple weeks after this happened to @nkalamb.bsky.social my NEXUS was just revoked by DHS.
Itβs not a coincidence.
Sorry American friends and colleagues, looks like I wonβt be at events in the US any time soon.
I think some people hear βgrantsβ and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
βPausingβ grants means people donβt eat.
Great reporting. The Israeli army said that most people killed in bombing a Beirut apartment block were Hezbollah. The BBC found that nearly all were in fact civilians, and a third were children. www.bbc.com/news/article...
