Opinion: In Iran, Trump is doing what his predecessors should have done long ago theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

Last week, we held a critical conversation on Canada’s complicity in the ongoing genocide in Palestine. Despite the supposed ‘ceasefire,’ Gaza is still being starved, bombed, and invaded by Israel in real time with the support of Canadian-made weaponry. But our hearts are not only breaking for those in Palestine.  In Iran, parents of 165 school children have just buried their young, after what's been the most deadly event of the US-Israeli-led attack on the country so far. Shamefully, Canada has backed Trump and Netanyahu's war. From Gaza, to Minab, to Minneapolis, the kidnapping and killing of children in classrooms around the world marks the failure of humanity. Weapons and war are not the answer. Canada must be a force for peace, diplomacy and de-escalation.

@thedailybeast Stop getting my hopes up.

@christibelcourt They want to take the resources with them.

Trump is fuelling a humanitarian crisis in Cuba, with an oil blockade that is leading to devastating power outages and rationing. This administration is determined to dominate the hemisphere with brute force and naked impunity.  Canada has a long history of good relations with Cuba. We have consistently voted at the UN to end the blockade of Cuba, and millions of Canadian tourists have visited the island.  We should immediately follow Mexico’s lead and condemn this act of economic warfare. And we should step up with humanitarian assistance to the Cuban people, as NDP MP @alexboulerice calls for in this excellent parliamentary petition: ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/P… Prime Minister Carney, silence is not an option when Trump attacks sovereign nations in the Americas. Canadians expect you to stand up for human rights, international law, and against the bullying of smaller nations by a rampaging superpower.

In light of today's news story by CBC on the University of Alberta's steps to end EDI in hiring policy, Professor Amir Attaran of the University of Ottawa has sent an email to the president warning of legal action. This email has been posted publicly.

Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” deserves all the hype it’s getting. Run, don’t walk, to this thrilling, hilarious, moving, and all too prescient portrait of American radicals on the run from right-wing authoritarians. jacobin.com/2025/09/one-ba…

Israel/Palestine becomes a litmus test for American democracy itself, writes @HeerJeet. How long can an elite continue with a policy that outrages the majority? thenation.com/article/politi…

Netanyahu started this war by attacking Iran. He assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator, deliberately sabotaging US-Iran nuclear negotiations. The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.
