Rest in peace, Jane Goodall. You taught us that kindness is a form of strength and that respect for life in all its forms is the truest measure of humanity. You will be dearly missed. 💔

Seriously, if Pierre Poilievre does not know that in Canada, food is not taxed (unless you purchase prepared food), this tells me he is unqualified to even be leader of the opposition. 😂

What I love most about Canada is that people can still celebrate their identity in their Canadianness. You can go to a Saint Patrick's Day parade in Canada to celebrate that you are Irish. You can celebrate Greek Independence Day if you are Greek. 1/

.. You can celebrate Black History Month, Indigenous Peoples Day, Lunar New Year & be proud of who you are. I am so grateful that this country doesn't exclude anyone. October is Muslim Heritage Month. May we all continue to give, grow and build spaces of belonging across 🇨🇦 2/

More than five million Canadians are now covered by the Canadian Dental Care Plan.   That’s huge relief for the millions of Canadians who can now get the dental care they need, without worrying about the cost.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza. Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military. They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

Canadian physician Yipeng Ge 葛义朋 has been on the ground in Gaza during the genocide. A year and a half later, he joined me and reflected on what he saw — and what the people are doing in the face of government complicity. Here’s a sneak peek of our conversation:

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been awarded the CIHR doctoral research award to support my PhD on Black maternal health. A heartfelt thank you to my incredibly supportive supervisor, Erna Snelgrove who champions me fully on my journey to disrupt the status quo. You inspire me 🫶🏿

Remember: What our participants are experiencing in detention is just a fraction of what Palestinians experience every single day in Israel’s inhumane and unjust prison system. The world must demand accountability for these horrors, and Israel’s impunity must end. Free them all.

Elon Musk The 2025 New York mayoral race reveals a new wave of unfiltered Islamophobia. Zohran Mamdani isn’t attacked for his policies, but for who he is. Politicians, commentators and journalists accuse him of “Islamizing America,” hiding a religious project, even turning the country

Breaking News: Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old state lawmaker from Queens, will be the 111th mayor of New York. He will be the first Muslim to ever lead the city, as well as its first South Asian mayor and the youngest mayor in more than a century. nyti.ms/4qK137J

Why are we defending mass murder in Gaza? Because our Greatest Ally demands it. It’s time to rethink that relationship.

Israel is not America’s “Greatest Ally.” For years, Washington’s political elite has insisted that Israel is our country’s greatest ally. But is it true? To qualify as America’s “greatest ally,” a foreign nation must offer the United States tangible benefits to the
