I am 70-year-old proud Canadian. I enjoy reading, music, history, and movies. I survived breast cancer and find myself grateful for each day.

In his last year, Stephen Lewis - a paragon of decency and humanity - protested the genocide in Gaza. All of us and especially our political leaders should take a page out of his book and learn from his unrelenting insistence for compassion and love of humanity.

Israel killed two Indonesian UN Peacekeepers by blowing up their vehicle. The Media won't even say who is responsible, never mind call it what it is another blatant Israeli War Crime.

Perfectly said. I could not agree more.

Anyone else notice this? Mainstream journalists have forgotten their duty to speak truth to power. It is why it is one of the rights written into the Constitution. Political cartoonists are the real and true heroes of the moment.

For logistics reasons, I’m marching backwards for #NoKings to meet my family in the midst of it. Get to see the mass wave of people and a great sign game. Young, old, dressed creatively, (naked - one so far). All out here to want a better future for the country and the planet

I know I wasn't paid, unless you count the sense of gratification and validation I felt when surrounded by over 2,000 like-minded citizens as I attempt to wrest control of MY country's government from a tyrannical force who may not have been legitimately elected. #NoKings #NotNow #NotEver #NotHere

Today, NDP delegates voted overwhelmingly in favour of a resolution calling on the federal govt to close the loophole that's allowed Canadian-made weapons to be used in human rights abuses abroad — as @jennykwan.bsky.social's Bill C-233 called for. I was proud to speak in favour of the resolution.
