TTCriders 'wanted assurances and it explicitly stated that use of force wouldn’t be used in cases of fare evasion.'

“We’re asking for clarity and a commitment that use of force never be used to protect $3.30,” the group said to the #TTC board.

This is was what went down at Awz’ office in January. And below is our statement on the Toronto police’s hella sketchy attempts to criminalize us for it today, *coincidentally* on the day global actions for Palestine kick off. x.com/wbwcanada/stat…

A reminder that people who are being criminalized for Palestinian solidarity work need our support

At the ⁦Halifax_Police⁩ headquarters demanding the release of over 15 people who were arrested this morning at a protest against the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. #NoBusinessAsUsual #A15 #nogenocide World BEYOND War Canada

I was arrested and criminally charged this morning for taking part in a pro-Palestine demonstration in January

The millions struggling in Palestine are not alone, millions more are with them, pushing from abroad in love and solidarity

How can the #TTC move ahead with a Use of Force policy without a plan to prevent & monitor systemic racial discrimination?

TTC adopted a 10-Point Action Plan on Diversity & Inclusion in 2020. We're *still* waiting on 'Action Item #2,' a scorecard on TTC’s Anti-Racism Strategy.

'A snapped switch rail. Buried reports about the Scarborough RT derailment. Shelagh Pizey-Allen with advocacy group @TTCriders asks: What’s going on at the TTC?'

We condemn the abhorrent police violence we saw this weekend, but this is not an anomaly. This is part and parcel of the racist carceral system and policing. Community keeps us safe. Cops never have. #DefundTPS #FreeThemAll

Anna🍉🗝️ They’re letting it ring and then hang up. Not even answering calls from community concerned about a public safety threat (I just saw TPS officers assaulting community for the second time this week). We pay how many millions and they won’t even pick up the phone ?

Two people died in a fire at an encampment in New Brunswick this week. Premier Blaine Higgs responded by promising a new law...to force unhoused people into drug treatment against their will

Today Toronto police choked people, kicked people, rode horses into the crowd, arrested a passerby for looking Arab, and arrested our driver. Mayor Olivia Chow do you condemn this? Or will you only condemn imaginary instances of violence? #AbolishTPS #DefundAndAbolish

York University’s divide and conquer tactics won’t work here!

This joint letter of solidarity defends CUPE 3903 from the Employer’s “use of the agreed-upon multi-party arbitration to publicly shame and isolate”.

Thank you YUFA @cupe_1356 and YUSA for the support!

Canada is a *very* racist country.

media should not report this claim of mistaken identity as fact just because police say so, especially involving Black people who always seem to 'fit the description'

how does mistaken identity explain an assault? who were the cops planning to attack instead of Hasani?

Toronto police are framing their 2021 assault of Hasani O'Gilvie as 'mistaken identity.' But now an cop has pleaded guilty to using unnecessary force

if police had identified the 'right' person, whatever that means, would the assault have been necessary? thestar.com/news/gta/toron…

BREAKING: Picket lines at TTM Technologies, Inc. in Toronto as we join World BEYOND War Canada and Labour for Palestine to demand #CanadaStopArmingIsrael .

It’s the 1-month anniversary of ICJ ruling. If Justin Trudeau won’t impose an arms embargo on 🇮🇱, workers will shut down companies complicit in genocide.

We’re out here at TTM Technologies demanding an end to arms sales to Israel! #StopArmingIsrael

NOW: Eighty people have blocked the entrances to TTM Technologies in Scarborough. This plant makes circuit boards for Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems, slated for use in F-15 and F-16 fighter jets and other equipment used to attack Gaza.
