Gaza:

More kids killed than the annual number of kids killed across all conflict zones since 2019 (Save the Children)

More UN workers killed than in any comparable period in the UN’s history (UN)

More journalists killed than in any conflict period since 1992 (CPJ)

'Gaza is becoming a graveyard for children.'

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres is reiterating his call for a ceasefire in Gaza as the number of deaths surpasses 10 thousand ⤵️

I’m shocked they actually aired this on CNN

Palestinian doctors in Gaza in a message to Israeli doctors:

“We as doctors are ambassadors of peace. We save lives. Israeli doctors who signed a letter promoting bombing of hospitals with patients inside have committed a betrayal to their noble profession & bear responsibility”

For as long as I live I will never forget that we have created a world where children have to hold a press conference saying they want to live.

⚠️ HAPPENING NOW AT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY: Hundreds of Jews and allies are holding an emergency sit-in, taking over the island to demand a ceasefire in Gaza. We refuse to allow a genocide to be carried out in our names. Ceasefire now to save lives! Never again for anyone! ⚠️

Palestinian children in Gaza hold a press conference outside Al Shifa hospital, speaking English so the world cannot pretend not to understand them: “We come now to shout and invite you to protect us; we want to live, we want peace… we want to live as the other children live.”

Sainte-Marie has received numerous Junos, the $50,000 Polaris Music Prize in 2015 and a Polaris heritage award for her 1964 debut album 'It's My Way!,' among a slew of other honours. ctvnews.ca/entertainment/…

Damien Lee was adopted into the Fort William First Nation as a baby.

He is non-native but is a member of the community. Lee said customary adoption is a legitimate basis of Indigenous citizenship, but people must always be forthcoming in how they fit in.

Cree opera singer Rhonda Head joins a group of artists, academics, lawyers, and activists, who want Buffy Sainte-Marie's JUNO award to be rescinded.

On tonight’s Nation to Nation, Head says it's taking away from Indigenous artists.

In the end, this is between Buffy Sainte-Marie and the Creator, or in her case..God. Can I win back my Juno or no? I was so proud we lost to her!

Go buy some mousetraps. To quote my Sicilian friend Maria, “mice don’t come in ones!”

My cousin and I, when we were 10 and 12, were left in charge of a record store for about 5 mins while the clerk went to grab his lunch.
We cranked this tune at the crescendo and blew one of the speakers.

Morris was the 2nd Lt Gov of the NWT and Mb. He was situated at Fort Garry. He was not the Lt Gov of Ft Garry.

I’m Dead Now😂😂😂😂

Kelowna is on fire.
