It has been 6 months since the brutal attacks in #Israel by Hamas and other groups, in which 1,200 people were killed, many more injured and hundreds abducted. World Health Organization (WHO) once again condemns this barbaric act of violence and demands the release of remaining hostages.

Just saw MSC Poesia leaving #Halifax Harbour. Is that our first cruise ship of the year Peter Ziobrowski Martin Bauman (HELL OF A RIDE out now) ?

Alex Jones the man who taunted and harassed families of 20 murdered children at Sandy Hook loves Pierrre Poilievre.

Once again, World Health Organization (WHO) demands a ceasefire.

Once again, we call for all hostages to be released, and for lasting peace.
