Malala Yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai@Malala·
They were girls who went to school to learn, with hopes and dreams for their future. Today, their lives were brutally cut short. I am heartbroken and appalled by the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, including reports that a girls’ school in southern Iran was hit, resulting in the injury and death of many girls. The killing of civilians, especially children, is unconscionable, and I condemn it unequivocally. My heart is with the children, families and communities affected by escalation across the region. I stand firmly against violence and the targeting of schools and civilians. I call for the escalation of violence across the region to end. Justice and accountability must follow. All states and parties must uphold their obligations under international law to protect civilians and safeguard schools. Every child deserves to live and learn in peace.

Strange that Canadians think calling Trump a “pedo” is this huge dunk on Americans. Our own Prime Minister castrated his child, at a butchers clinic, when she was underaged. Meanwhile, there is no actual evidence that Trump ever slept with an under age girl.

There are some days where the brutal reality of helping sick dogs just slams you in the face. Today was one such day. I woke up to the news that Donut had died. That was just the start… (1/10) 🧵

We have so much to be proud of in our new deal with Quebec to maximize the clean energy from our mighty Churchill River. It's good for our province, theirs, and Indigenous communities. This is not the old one-sided 1969 contract - not at all.

Today, at 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., we will be conducting pole testing on LIL. There is a risk of equipment trips & short power outages (less than 30 minutes). We have plenty of electricity supply, so any customers impacted would be restored quickly. nlhydro.com/public-advisor…

Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
This is absolutely not a freedom of expression issue. Peterson said his words, and wasn't arrested, charged, fined, nor jailed for them. However, the College that he belongs to has a Code Of Conduct he agreed to follow. They believe he didn't follow, and hence the action taken.
Pierre Poilievre@PierrePoilievre

Another government bureaucracy threatens to ban a Canadian from practicing his profession because he expressed political opinions the state doesn’t like. Now they force him to undergo a political “reeducation.” Bring home free speech for Jordan Peterson and everyone else.

People don’t bring their own toilet paper to work, so they shouldn’t have to bring their own pads and tampons. We changed that. We put free menstrual products in federally-regulated workplaces. This bracelet is for Menstrual Hygiene Day.

Weston said his profit is minimal but this shows it is certainly not. Stop blaming the government for all the issues and start turning some of your anger on these corporations.
Frank Domenic@TheFrankDomenic

A leaked invoice from Loblaws to a No Frills show what appears to be a 54% profit margin on products such as butter when Galen Weston last year testified to parliament that their profit margins were very small. #canada #cdnpoli #loblaws #galenweston #loblawsCanada
