Today in 1869, Louis Riel speaks at a meeting of Metis residents about rights, setting in motion the events now referred to as the Red River Rebellion. Unfortunately, the Metis of Ontario, Quebec and other provinces did not get the memo to attend.

I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today. This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security.   There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world.   I call on Member States to de-escalate and to uphold their obligations under the @UN Charter and other rules of international law.   At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos.   There is no military solution.  The only path forward is diplomacy.  The only hope is peace.

It's amazing this needs to be said in 2025 but here we are. The real estate industry has spent shedloads of money on PR to convince you that market supply will fix your housing problem. But it won't "The supply & demand myth of housing" canadiandimension.com/articles/view/… #bcpoli #vanpoli

Enough. We demand rapid, safe, and unimpeded access to starving civilians in Gaza. We have a plan. We have thousands of trucks of food at the border. Let us in. Let us work. bit.ly/3S7M0oo

The situation for Palestinians in Gaza is beyond description, beyond atrocious & beyond inhumane. A policy of siege & starvation makes a mockery of international law. The blockade against humanitarian aid must end immediately. This is a moment for moral clarity & action.

“For those of us working at the intersections of environmental and social governance and Indigenous sciences, the questions we are charged with are some of the most urgent ones we face," says @ZoeSTodd of @cca_reports expert panel: sfu.ca/indg/news-even…

@ZoeSTodd Wow, this is wonderful! I love trying to bring these ideas into the scope of the K-12 system where “braiding” is popular. I shall send folks to this great article. Thank you !

We strongly condemn @youralberta's plan to use taxpayer money to cover billions in cleanup costs owed by the oil and gas industry. These are the same companies that owe rural municipalities across Alberta over $250 million in unpaid property taxes. albertawilderness.ca/awa-statement-…
