Organizers say they won’t leave until Yale divests from all military weapons manufacturing.

Ever since told Sean Fraser 'Sure, we'll allow fourplexes everywhere--just hang on till we finish the Zoning Bylaw Review,' I've been paranoid that it's not actually gonna happen.

Here's the latest in the staff report.

Is it just me, or are they hedging?

When officers engage in criminal behaviour or misconduct, they're often placed on paid suspension instead of being fired. But when it comes to whistleblowing on sexual violence, suddenly termination becomes instant. Disturbing. thestar.com/news/gta/ex-to…

How is it okay that Canadian tax-deductible charities fund extremist Israeli settler groups who then block aid trucks on their way to starving Palestinians in Gaza?

It's gross.

Sign the petition and demand Canada stand up for peace and justice.

Can we please quit it with this “Team Whatever” stuff? It wasn’t cute in the first place, and it’s definitely not getting cuter.

I want to review, so there is no misunderstanding about my position.

As I have said from the beginning, it is my view that the goal of Israel’s military operation in Gaza is to ethnically cleanse Gaza. /1
