When the State Library of Victoria fired four pro-Palestinian writers earlier this year, they refused to go quietly. Now they’re at the forefront of a fight against censorship designed to silence criticism of Israeli atrocities in Gaza. jacobin.com/2024/03/state-…

Israeli army destroyed completely Al Shifa hospital which is the largest in Gaza . The Israeli goal is to make Gaza unlivable because Netanyahu never gave up his dream of complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. The destruction of the hospitals is a grave violation of international Law

I have no words.

John Bell was a brilliant writer and socialist. He will be sorely missed.

security for renters is based on their possession of their rental unit, and this appears to do nothing to restrict landlords' ability to dispossess tenants

The budget: not enough to improve hospital staffing & capacity; not enough to respond to population growth & aging; not enough to stop ER closures, reduce surgical waitlists, or seriously address hallway healthcare. Just enough funding to maintain a perpetual crisis of care.

Israel has killed 88 Palestinian children in Gaza per day, every single day, for 6 months straight.

14,976 children killed. In just 170 days.

This is a genocide. Plain and simple.

Beautiful day for a protest! Met my neighbor there. Was impressed by handmade signs show ppl really get it. #FreePalestine #StopArmingIsrael #StopGenicideShifaHospital

ausma malik Social Planning Toronto CUPE Local 79 '50% of Toronto's residents are renters. Affordable housing is a huge issue for racialized ppl, who are fighting many roadblocks. Many residents in York Southwest make ⬇️$20/hr. With 1-bedroom apts averaging $2600, ppl can't afford housing.'

Was feeling a need for a pick-me-up so indulged in a handcrafted beaded pair of earrings, & bracelets...there was a theme, as there was with the free cards/stickers the artists included. #SolidarityWithPalestine

I can't even fathom both the brutality of the Israeli genocide, and the courage both of the Palestinian people & the journalists - who have been killed in record numbers here. #StopTheGenocide #StopArmingIsrael

Went to an artsy fun rally for #OPSEU #AGO workers who are tired of poverty wages while the head honcho rakes in $400,000 a year. #ArtsWorkersDeserveBetter

🚨 Take back your public spaces, your city, your subways, and your ATTENTION! Yesterday, a group of guerrilla artists replaced subway ads with posters for Palestine, forcing commuters to do double takes—and to think twice before looking away. We salute this beautiful action.…

Matt apparently believes there are landlords looking to spend $10-$50k on a unit renovation just to have the tenant come back at the same rent. Renoviction is about displacement, not renovations.

Muhamed Yaghi is another Palestinian journalist killed by Israel in Gaza. He was killed today with his wife and daughter. The Israeli army killed 131 Palestinian journalists in Gaza since the 7th of October .
