This post has been on my mind for a few days now, so I’m going to say something about it. 🧵
Screenshot of a tweet from Evan Solomon. It has two photos of him meeting with the Israeli Ambassador to Canada with the caption: This morning, I met with Israel’s Ambassador to Canada as part of ongoing engagement on technology, AI, and economic development. Dialogue matters, particularly in complex times. / Ce matin, j'ai rencontré l'ambassadeur d'Israël au Canada dans le cadre d'un engagement continu en matière de technologie, d'intelligence artificielle et de développement économique. Le dialogue est important, en particulier dans les périodes complexes.

“When our government rewrites truth-in-advertising rules, it not only impairs consumer choice and dupes investors, but it also rigs the market to favour big polluters over genuinely green industries” -- @samanthagreen.bsky.social & Leah Temper in their new op-ed in The Hill Times 🔗 loom.ly/3kKaA9E

Buried in the MOU: a licence to lie
When our government rewrites truth-in-advertising rules, it not only impairs consumer choice and dupes investors, but it also rigs the market to favour big polluters over genuinely green industries.

#COP30 - CAPE Closing Statement at #COP30 1/ COP30 ended on a massively disappointing note: no explicit reference to fossil fuels in the almost final text, and no clarity on how to move away from them. Canada is backsliding while health impacts worsen. #ClimateHealth #FossilFree

This morning, I had the immense joy of voting early alongside my family and running into incredible supporters like Zakir from the Regent Park Islamic Resource Centre at the voting station. It was a special moment—bringing my kids with me and showing them what democracy looks like in action.

On this International Public Health Day, I’m proud to stand with the only party truly fighting for your health — the NDP. As a family physician, environmentalist, and your MP candidate for Toronto Centre, I know that health is political. #TorCen

This morning I had the honour of joining NDP leader Jagmeet Singh as he announced his plan to build homes that people can actually afford. It follows yesterday's ambitious plan to fight soaring rents and protect renters.

"In the face of these horrors, we cannot be silent. We must act, all of us, and the Canadian medical establishment must do much more..." by Dr. Kavita Algu www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

The Canadian medical establishment should not remain silent as Israel attacks Palestinian health care facilities
We are witnessing a livestreamed extermination of Palestinian life and Canadian medical organizations who proclaimed commitments to equity and human rights remain silent on Palestine.
