Heartbroken by the passing of dear friend and colleague Alan Young. Alan saw paths to justice before the rest of us and pursued them with vigour and wit. Remembering many laughs. A huge legacy. He gave so much to all of us who had the privilege of working with him. www.thestar.com/news/ontario...

Looks like Fridays are Make Immigration Great Again day at IRCC. [sic] 🙄 Last Friday they abolished Student Direct Stream + Nigeria Student Exchange. Today, they announced that "New regulations for international students have taken effect" + this moral panic ad on fake marriages. bit.ly/4freOSJ

People should be looking to the legal framework governing security around the 2024 G20 Summit in Rio (Nov 18-19)... As usual, a special legal regime is already in place and this one is valid only from Nov 14 to 21, but its consequences may be longer. Full post @: www.linkedin.com/posts/joao-v...

I created this Bluesky profile back in September to secure the same id name as the other social media that must not be named, but this is my first post. Months of propaganda there during BR+US elections were enough to make me leave. Now is time to resettle, like millions, under a better Blue Sky 😎
