I’m curious. Looking for left leaning folks on X to comment on Iran. Wondering where they stand but only silence.

An incredible story of perseverance by Chantelle Bryson & her clients. Independent police oversight is a cornerstone of democracy and our criminal Justice system. For all these layers of accountability to fail & to lash out as is described is wildly alarming. Kudos to Chantelle.

That we have no one who is willing or able to speak up for the 130 children who died connected to child protection in Ontario is an indignity and tragedy.

The story of 13-year-old Yura from Kharkiv is a perfect example of how a person can find inner strength after experiencing trauma and even become the embodiment of support for others. After a Russian missile killed the boy's older brother a year and a half ago, he lost faith in…

This is huge. After so many investigations and inquests, after we have cried out for change in the City of Thunder Bay and who runs it, after Senator Murray Sinclair’s thorough report and then another one, the Ontario Prov Police act. 👇🏽

The actions of this Justice Code are as embarrassing and outrageous as the inactions he is calling out.

I do not believe he had no choice but to allow an alleged child abuser walk.

To quote a late PM “Sir you had a choice”
