An honest title from CTV for the devastating reality in Northern Gaza. “Israel's nearly 15-month-old campaign of bombardment and offensives has devastated the territory's health sector. A year ago, it carried out raids on hospitals in northern Gaza, including Kamal Adwan,

Trudeau, like Biden, waited too long to resign and has left us in turmoil while we face real threats. "Trump is a grabber, he wants to grab Panama, he wants to grab Greenland, he grabs women" #cdnpoli

Sonia Furstenau has been a supporter of public health care and an ally to nurses in the BC Legislature since her election as MLA in 2017. BCNU thanks her for her years of service to British Columbians.

New PM Carney cancelled (zero-rated) the federal carbon price yesterday, but also cancelled the rebates (one last payment coming in April). Remember, most Canadians got a bigger rebate than they paid in tax. So this leaves them with less money in their pockets, not more. #cdnecon

Mexico's left-wing President Claudia Sheinbaum (who has 80% approval) has officially recognized Palestine as a state and welcomed the Palestinian ambassador. This is very symbolic, because Sheinbaum is Jewish. She supports Palestinian human rights and criticized Israel's attacks
