A friend just said to me "Are we supposed to be working during the coup?" and honestly it was the most American thing I've ever heard.

For a country that specializes in coups, Americans seem incredibly ignorant about what a coup entails.

Worst coup ever, which is surprising given how much practice Americans have had in Latin America.

HAPPENING NOW: The Canadian Civil Liberties Association is hosting a teleconference as it files its formal lawsuit against the Government of New Brunswick and Regulation 84-20 - which limits abortion access in the province.

We're devastated to hear that our good friend and comrade Aziz Choudry has died Aziz was a true activist-scholar, dedicating his life to social justice. His two Pluto books are transnational collections that reflect his spirit of solidarity, generosity & collaboration. RIP Aziz.

Very sad to hear this news. We have so much to learn from Aziz Choudry’s work on social movements, activism and social justice. Rest in power 💖

Join us on June 8!!!

I just got back. I saw people beaten, pepper-sprayed, and violently arrested. Lots of police, including with horses, lots of private security. A class war on the unhoused and poor. Is Toronto now a police state? #DefundThePolice

This whole thread!! 👏👏👏

A brilliant, in-depth look at the issue of abortion access in New Brunswick 👇👇👇

What’s happening to abortion access in Texas right now should be a warning to all Canadians not to throw away your vote this election If you don’t think a woman’s right to choose could be eroded here too, I urge you to look at what’s already happening in New Brunswick

Yes, great thread: #Axe8420

It’s been 32 years since that evening. But it’s only been one and a half since the Portapique massacre here in NS, also viciously rooted in gender violence. Trying not to despair. Honouring the women who died Dec 6, 1989, and recommitting to this work, every year.

Staff are enjoying some time off. We'll be back on January 3, 2022. Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner response to emergency rooms continues uninterrupted.
