Elon, Quebeckers don’t take kindly to subsidized billionaires who cash in on public money, gut public services, and lecture us on how to run our society — especially when they’re Nazis sympathizers. T’es peut-être un vendu, mais le Québec n’est pas à vendre. #qcpol #cdnpoli

The war against the Palestinian people didn’t start on Oct 7th 2023. It started before 1948 with the gradual colonization of Palestinian land. For the past 3 years Israel has committed before our very eyes a genocide with the complicity of the Canadian government. #cdnpoli

Une femme est morte dans un campement. Elle n’aurait pas dû mourir. Elle avait le droit à logement décent. C’est un droit humain de base pas une charité ! Le fait que tant de personnes vivent dans la rue, qu’elle soit morte d’une mort terrible et surtout évitable est un crime! #qcpol

Ce matin nous avons appris la nouvelle déconcertante qu’une femme serait morte suite à un incendie dans un campement. La crise du logement fait des ravages. Elle tue littéralement. Si on avait un gouvernement qui avait quelque chose à faire du monde: il décrèterait une crise nationale! #qcpol

Il y a, environ, 100 mil logements vacants au QC. Quand il y a des gens qui dorment à la rue chacun de ces logements vides constitue un crime. Ce qui ne devrait pas être un crime c’est de réclamer qu’ils servent à ce pour quoi ils ont été construits: loger du monde! Solidarité! #qcpoli

There are approximately 100,000 vacant housing units in Quebec. When people are sleeping on the streets, every one of these empty housing units is a crime. What shouldn’t be a crime is demanding that they be used for the purpose for which they were built: to house people! Solidarity! #qcpoli

In a moment when so many so-called “leaders” have shamelessly cowered in fear preferring short-term material comfort over human-rights, peace and liberation; Macklemore has appeared as an inspiration, fearlessly cutting through the noise and to defend Palestine and human decency! Thank you! 🇵🇸✌🏼

Tomorrow, Montreal has a date with history. After years of mobilization and the support of thousands of Montrealers, the motion to make our metropolis a beacon of justice and peace will be put to a vote. The time has come for Montreal to write a new proud page in its history. 🇵🇸✌🏼

Amazing victory for Angie Nixon for senate. The days of silencing and the repression of the voices of common decency, of humanity who from day 1 stood against the genocide in Gaza are over! So is AIPAC’s —here in Canada CIJA’s—impunity. There will be justice and Palestine will be free 🇵🇸✌🏼#cdnpoli

L’abolition de la « taxe Netflix » n’est pas une décision technique. Pour le Québec, l’Acadie et les francophones du pays, c’est un recul majeur de notre souveraineté culturelle. Les géants du numérique profitent de notre marché. Ils doivent contribuer à notre culture. (1/4) #polqc #cdnpoli

The “peace plan” for Gaza isn’t about “peace” it’s about submission. Canada in their support for a plan that completely tramples human rights and bypasses the UN is actively coming to Trump’s aid in the destruction of the “Liberal International order” apparently Carney ardently supports… #cdnpoli

Abdul El-Sayed's victory, alongside other progressive wins, proves working people can beat big money. Better wages, Medicare for All, climate justice, workers' rights, and justice for Palestine are winning issues. The future belongs to organized people—not organized money. #cdnpoli

Michigan and @abdulelsayed.bsky.social are proving that courage is good politics. Refusing to bow to big money, speaking out against the genocide in Gaza, and reminding the world that Israel doesn’t have a monopoly on Jewish identity isn't a liability—it's leadership. People over profit! #cdnpoli

The images from Ceuta are being exploited by the far right as supposed proof of a racist and xenophobic fantasy of an "invasion" of the West. In reality, they reveal something entirely different: the desperation of an entire generation. People the world over dream of a better future (1/3) #qcpol

Canadians want justice for Gaza. Mark Carney's government is giving Benjamin Netanyahu access to Canadian airspace despite an ICC arrest warrant. So much for Canada's commitment to international law. The rule of law isn't a slogan—it's either universal or it's hypocrisy. #cdnpoli

Netanyahu is a war criminal. The architect of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. His arrest would not repair the excruciating suffering that the Palestinian people have endured; but it would be a first step on the long path towards justice. Canada must support Mayor Mamdani’s call! #cdnpoli

L’effondrement climatique n’est pas inévitable. C’est un choix politique. Un choix fait par des criminels climatiques qui préfèrent donner des millards de plus au multinationales du pétrole plutôt que de sauver la vie sur Terre. Les libéraux de Carney sont des criminels climatiques ! #qcpol

Steven Guilbeault est passé d’activiste qui se faisait arrêter pour défendre le climat à ministre chargé d’expliquer pourquoi les nouveaux projets pétroliers sont finalement une bonne idée. C’est l’une des transformations politiques les plus spectaculaires de la dernière décennie. #qcpol (1/3)

Steven Guilbeault entered politics with real credibility on climate. Many of us genuinely hoped he could push the Liberals toward meaningful action from within government. Instead, he became the environmental shield for policies he once would have protested against. #cdnpoli (1/3)

Today, my friends & comrades Safa, Ehab and Olivier were illegally abducted by Israeli forces in international waters. Their only “crime”? Trying to break Israel’s 19-year genocidal blockade on Gaza. Canada must demand their immediate release, sever all ties and sanction Israel now! #cdnpoli

No one should die trying to enter Canada. No one! Oliveira Alves died alone in the cold, her body found 2 years later. She should be alive and have claimed asylum. Instead, the Liberals keeps the Safe Third Country Agreement with the United States—Trump-style cruelty. Shameful! #cdnpoli

C’est extrêmement grave ce que véhicule le chef du Parti Québécois comme discours. Parler d’un gouvernement « contaminé » par une idéologie « frérériste » et insinuer être solidaire avec Gaza serait manipulée par des « islamistes », ce n’est pas une analyse — c’est propager la haine. (1/3) #qcpol

The real problem in this country is the narrative—pushed by certain parts of the media and some pro-Israel organizations—that equates being Jewish with unconditional support for Israel. I reject that entirely. I’m Jewish and proud. I’m a socialist, and I stand for Palestinian liberation. #cdnpoli

This is shameful. The government of Mark Carney allows those linked to atrocities in Gaza to enter, yet blocks Rima Hassan — a European elected official and strong voice for human rights. Double standards. When the truth is inconvenient, they try to silence it. We won’t stay silent. #cdnpoli

Deux personnes en situation d’itinérance mortes en 24h à Montréal. Leurs morts sont les conséquences d’un choix politique. Celui de Legault et Carney de privilégier les ultra-riches et les multinationales au détriment de notre filet social. Ces morts repose entièrement sur leurs épaules. #qcpol

Yesterday Mark Carney commented on the U.S.–Israeli war on Iran. Not one word about mass murder. Not a word about Israel’s illegal strikes on Lebanon. Not one word about the strike against a school killing hundreds. Silence for the victims. Deference to power. Carney is Trump’s governor. #cdnpoli

Canada’s Iran policy is a mess: first Ottawa backs bombings, now not so sure… a joke! Stop acting like American imperialism’s snotty sidekick. Canada needs to grow a backbone and say it clearly: bombs aren’t the solution and never will be! The only way forward is diplomacy and a deal. #cdnpoli
