An utter human rights fail @uOttawa. Yes, there may be conflicting factors to balance, but a categorical statement that "encampments and occupations will not be tolerated" blatantly gets free expression/assembly wrong, and almost certainly sets the ground for confrontation.

“encampments and occupations will not be tolerated” Well, you’ve certainly made your job much harder with that foolishly categorical statement, @uOttawa admin. Good luck.

Last September, at this exact spot, hundreds of Indigenous folks--I'd venture a guess that it was more than a thousand--got together for multiple prayers during McGill's annual Pow Wow.

Nothing helps students study and feel safe like pepper spray, arrests, and an ass whooping. All because a single-minded extreme Israeli nationalist mp disagrees with their views on human rights in Gaza.

Just a reminder that your role as an elected official is to respect free expression & uphold the Charter of Rights, not to suppress free expression & champion police brutality.

Time for basic courses in int’l human rights law & int’l criminal law @netanyahu. This isn’t about self-defence. What the @IntlCrimCourt seeks to ‘undermine’ (and hold you accountable for) is your (and Hamas’) commission of genocide, war crimes & crimes against humanity.

Protesters set up tents at McGill University's campus Saturday and demanded McGill and Concordia universities divest from Israel-connected funds. The Montreal encampment follows similar protests on U.S. campuses amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. cbc.ca/news/canada/mo….
Housefather quotes section 7 of McGill’s code of conduct to say demonstrations must be busted. He curiously doesn’t mention section 6 which authorizes certain demonstrations. Poor lawyering.

What does it mean when people like Housefather say we can't let what happened in the US happen here? US students already face summary suspension and eviction, riot police, violent arrests, tear gas, LRAD, snipers on roofs. You want a Tiananmen-style massacre to protect Zionism?
Pierre Poilievre helped create a moral panic against people who are homeless who use substances. Now he applauds their criminalization. @PierrePoilievre is a denier of the facts: 1) Unregulated illicit drugs are killing Canadians 2) Deaths unabated under the “recovery-oriented”…

UPDATE: Local tourism association @Ottawa_Tourism just sent me this statement indicating they are no longer promoting the Ottawa Book Expo as a result of @pressprogress’ reporting. They felt the festival “misrepresented itself” and does not meet their “promotional standards”:

As a UOttawa alum, and as someone who has created the Arar-Mazigh Scholarship at the university, along with other fellow Muslims, I'm closely watching their reaction to the student protesters. I expect them not to call the police to violently arrest & disperse the students.
None of us know what riboflavin is but we sure know how to spell it.
What everyone younger than Gen X doesn't know is how deeply bored we were a lot of the time, even at things like this. Every Gen Xer has read at least 1000 cereal boxes and shampoo bottle labels beginning to end out of boredom. And that is literally not an exaggeration.
The sheer arrogance to assume that all Jewish McGill community members agree with your pro-war genocide apologia… Our student chapters are fiercely Jewish and fiercely pro-Palestine. They are doing better, more Jewish work than you ever have.
As a McGill alum, I expect the administration to do everything in its power to protect the safety of its Jewish students & faculty and ensure they’re not subjected to the antisemitic rhetoric & intimidation that’s been a hallmark of these encampments on campuses across the US.…
It seems @uOttawa is discouraging protest by using "freedom of expression" as cover. Their tweet states encampments violate #uOttawa policies. Thus, activists' must make a protest camp that is not a camp. I expect old tactics like rotating pickets as a workaround.
Message to the uOttawa community on freedom of expression. For more information - uottawa.ca/en/news-all/me…
As a UOttawa alum, I find it extremely troubling a respected educational institution where I completed my PhD is putting all kinds of road blocks to proactively silence the student movement, one that is trying to put an end to the industrial scale massacre taking place in Gaza.

@AlexNeve24 @uOttawa "You're welcome to express yourself freely as long as we tell you where, when and how you can express yourself. Oh, and we'll probably tell you what you can say too"
An utter human rights fail @uOttawa. Yes, there may be conflicting factors to balance, but a categorical statement that "encampments and occupations will not be tolerated" blatantly gets free expression/assembly wrong, and almost certainly sets the ground for confrontation.

Is this a parody? @FareedZakaria + @WSJ? Because: community, vibrancy, resilience, and yes -- collegiality (that word that gets thrown around on campus to keep people in 'their place') Protesting students and faculty have demonstrated ALL these things.
College campuses are no longer collegial—much like the rest of society. My take:
What “threats”? Goodness, there isn’t even a protest yet! #scaremongering
Glad to see that the University of Ottawa is taking the threats seriously. Protest and freedom of expression are fundamental tenets of academic freedom, but they cannot be used to incite violence, hate and harassment. #antisemitism #cdnpoli
I’m just gonna please ask @uOttawa students: - Do push us to divest from Israel and the arms trade - Protest but ALWAYS respect your Jewish and Muslim peers - If the choice is not being peaceful or walking away, WALK - Don’t let a cop so much as eat a donut without video 🙏
“encampments and occupations will not be tolerated” Well, you’ve certainly made your job much harder with that foolishly categorical statement, @uOttawa admin. Good luck.

You all know that McGill is a PUBLIC university, right?
@VeldonCoburn It’s hard to believe how underworked the human brain can be.
Nothing helps students study and feel safe like pepper spray, arrests, and an ass whooping. All because a single-minded extreme Israeli nationalist mp disagrees with their views on human rights in Gaza.
I call on the @mcgillu administration to act. Final exams are coming up and all students need to feel safe on campus.
@BlairKing_ca Have you seen people "terrorizing and threatening" students and staff in this encampment? Only instance I am aware of is the threat of police violence against them.
I am disappointed with MP Housefather on this, as his constituent and a McGill professor. You surely know that calling on the police will only escalate the conflict and lead to violence against peaceful protesters.
I call on the @mcgillu administration to act. Final exams are coming up and all students need to feel safe on campus.
Just a reminder that your role as an elected official is to respect free expression & uphold the Charter of Rights, not to suppress free expression & champion police brutality.
This is the proper way to deal with the misguided Hamas supporters. Use any means necessary and throw them out. Enough is enough. Good on you Georgia.
Time for basic courses in int’l human rights law & int’l criminal law @netanyahu. This isn’t about self-defence. What the @IntlCrimCourt seeks to ‘undermine’ (and hold you accountable for) is your (and Hamas’) commission of genocide, war crimes & crimes against humanity.
Under my leadership, Israel will never accept any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense. The threat to seize the soldiers and officials of the Middle East’s only democracy and the world’s only Jewish state is outrageous. We will not bow to it. Israel…
Encampments do not endanger any students, but the investment of universities like McGill in a genocidal project certainly causes rather a lot of danger and insecurity.
I call on the @mcgillu administration to act. Final exams are coming up and all students need to feel safe on campus.
