On behalf of the Government of Canada I am announcing that on the advice of our officials, we have deemed the group Kneecap ineligible to enter our country. Our government will not tolerate the advocating of political violence, terrorism or Anti-Semitism and hate more broadly.

Reportedly, @globalnews wants @BenMulroney to host The West Block. A genocide denier, Mulroney has been a key voice in vilifying Palestinians and their allies. He’s unfit for journalism beyond the right-wing newsertainment slop he peddles now.
Ukraine is on the frontline in the struggle for freedom and sovereignty. After three years at war, Ukrainians urgently need more military equipment. Canada is answering that call, providing $2 billion for drones, armoured vehicles, and other critical resources.
I wrote about Israel’s assassination of Anas Al-Sharif, a brave journalist in Gaza.
Famine has now been confirmed in Gaza. Over half a million people are facing the most devastating form of hunger, warns @theIPCinfo. An immediate ceasefire and unhindered humanitarian access is imperative to save lives. wfp.org/news/famine-co… — via @WFP
Canada is a member of the Media Freedom Coalition yet didn’t sign the statement urging Israel to allow international journalists into Gaza and calling for protection of local journalists. Silence is complicity.

The @globeandmail published an editor's note stating that calling the famine in Gaza "forced starvation" was "inaccurate." This followed a pressure campaign by pro-Israel group HonestReporting Canada. Amnesty, UN, WHO, and others all say it is man-made famine imposed by Israel.
