Hi @JohnTory and @joe_cressy I am really struggling to understand why the city is not providing water to Torontonians in encampments. Water is a basic necessity so this seems like a profound human rights violation or at the very least shockingly immoral. Pls respond urgently.

@JoelHardenONDP @amnesty Thank you @JoelHardenONDP for your courageous, principled stance. As a Jew, I condemn Israel's racist and illegal detention of Palestinians.Canada must demand the release of Khalida Jarrar and all detained Palestinians. From Turtle Island to Palestine end illegal detention!

Hi @MayorOliviaChow I remember when you used to march with us in the streets for human rights. Israel has murdered over 30,000 Palestinians. Will you speak out against genocide. Asking as a Jew.

$12M for @TPSOperations to employ anti-Palestinian racism and target racialized people who are peacefully trying to end a genocide. Can anyone think of better uses for our taxdollars? Housing, food, education, community care, parks -ok basically anything else #DefundthePolice

Re Tulsi Gabbard and her anti-war brand: 1. She is a Zionist [don't argue; use google and see for yourself] 2. Zionism is a form of warfare 3. Ergo, Gabbard is by definition pro-war 4. Stop minimizing Palestinian suffering in order to sanitize US political campaigns

The refusal of the 5 Rays players to wear the rainbow flag on their uniform reveals the problem with pride nights at the ballpark. Were their actions & statement homophobic? Yes. But the problem, to me, is MLB trying to force an inclusive image on their league that isnโ€™t true. 1/
