Was literally just minding my business listening to The Backbench Pod and was completely caught off guard when they mentioned the Climate Justice UofT’s 18 day occupation of ‘Old Vic’ and Vic College UofT’s decision to divest!

Sifton was also the kind of Interior Minister who offered such thoughts as:

'You can't expect the average Prairie Indian to compete with a white farmer. He has neither the physical, intellectual, or moral get-up to do it.'

Whether it be to clear tent encampments or to roll back LGBTQ2S+ rights, politicians often use 'public safety' as justification. But whose safety are we really talking about? I went on The Backbench Pod for the first time to discuss.

This is a good episode of The Backbench Pod talking about factors contributing to the staffing crisis in nursing (wages, agency use, WPV). It is rare that hospital staff can speak publicly about their working conditions. CANADALAND OntarioHealthCoal'n

“Could Canada Be Complicit in a ‘Plausible Genocide’?”

Great discussion on the The Backbench Pod today about Canada’s response to South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the ICJ.

With important insights from my Human Rights Watch colleague Farida Deif:

Had a cathartic time joining Ri / ᕒᐊᔦᓬᐄ, Emma McIntosh and Catherine Griwkowsky on The Backbench Pod.

We talk about and the potentially game-changing $95B First Nations' lawsuit against the Ontario and Canadian governments for violating treaty rights.

Great podcast episode, Mattea Roach and David Moscrop. Hard to believe you recorded in a coffee shop - sound was great. I’m working on my “cognitive autopilot,” and casts like this help. The Backbench Pod

I’m on The Backbench Pod today with Mattea Roach trying to contextualize Canada’s response to Gaza, accusations of anti-semitism and the Jama situation. Very insightful analysis by Emilie Nicolas & Murtaza Hussain who covered so much is so little time. Thanks Mattea, Noor Azrieh et al!
