Months after they were promised, Ottawa still hasn't imposed sanctions on violent Israeli settlers cbc.ca/news/politics/…
Look at those three young women watching. This picture is so symbolic.
"Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza in which Palestinian victims were reportedly stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes," said UN OHCHR. news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
Police have a monopoly on information when it comes to criminal investigations. The question now is what kind of accountability do they face for labeling this an "intentional and deliberate" act? And what of politicians who rushed to condemn a man who hadn’t even been tried?

Canadian aid agency @IDRFcanada says its key water aid truck has been bombed in Gaza and is calling on the federal government to mount a full investigation into what it believes was a "targeted" incident. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
Have been eagerly awaiting this incredible piece of reporting from @powellbetsy and she delivered a must-read on a prosecution that makes very little sense: What the jury didn’t hear at the murder trial of Umar Zameer thestar.com/news/gta/what-… via @TorontoStar
Reuters' Mohammed Salem has won the 2024 World Press Photo of the Year award for this image of a Palestinian woman, Inas Abu Maamar, cradling the body of her five-year-old niece in Gaza.
Shanifa Nasser's relentless reporting into the death of Soleiman Faqiri in an Ontario jail (after guards beat & restrained him) has been unmatched by any reporter in Canada. This story earned her a nomination in the @caj's Daily Excellence category. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
It's an honour to be named a CAJ finalist along with this very talented group of journalists, and for Soleiman Faqiri's story to receive this recognition. Thank you, @caj!

Speaking to the jury for the first time Tuesday, Umar Zameer described an evening of sightseeing with his young family before Const. Northrup's death. Court saw security footage of Zameer from that night playing what he said was hide-and-seek with his son. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
UPDATE: Should cops who kill be named if not criminally charged? Lawyers for both sides made their case in court on whether to name the officers in the death of Ejaz Choudry amid a $22M lawsuit by his family. Read more: cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Should cops who kill be named if not criminally charged? That's the question facing Ontario's Superior Court of Justice in a lawsuit against the officers in the death of Ejaz Choudry, a father of four with schizophrenia, 4 years ago. Read more: cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
Foreign Press Association presses again for immediate access to Gaza raising “questions about what Israel does not want international journalists to see”. The US administration has also pressed Netanyahu directly on the issue, still no change.

A wonderful profile of our partner @Nader_Hasan_law in the Toronto Star, coming on the heels of an important victory in the Zameer case.
Meet @Nader_Hasan_law @TorontoStar - “I felt like I was recruiting Lebron James” thestar.com/news/gta/meet-…
This term, I had the chance to design and teach a new course on #AI and #migration at @OsgoodeNews @YorkUniversity. With an amazing group of law students we explored surveillance, data colonialism, and resistance, bringing it back to the people affected. For those interested🧵
I had a case a few years ago in which undercover officers with their firearms drawn ran at my client in his car. The independent evidence established they did not identify themselves as police officers. They said they did…
If a guy dressed like this suddenly started yelling at you and banging on your car for no apparent reason while your family was with you one night, would you stop to talk to him or try to get away? Honestly.
Flashback to September 2021, when Umar Zameer was granted bail, and Premier Doug Ford weighed in on Twitter.
The premier's previous tweet on this (since deleted) called the accused "the person responsible for this heinous crime" when that person hasn't actually gone to trial, nor been convicted.
Justice Molloy’s apology to Mr. Zameer on behalf of the criminal justice system tells you all you need to know. I have certainly never seen that before - other than when wrongful convictions are overturned years after the fact.
Judge tells Mr Zameer “you’re free to go. My deepest apologies for what you’ve been through.” A court observer makes an utterance behind me upon hearing Molloy’s remarks Margaret Northrup is hugging Lisa Forbes. Sobbing continues from Zameer and his family.
Important thread. Most people complete their bail conditions without issue. In regard to the Zameer case, I would hope politicians learn to be quiet before speaking about specific cases before knowing the facts. Especially if they don't have the decency to admit they were wrong.
Taking a brief break from weekend duties to tell you a story. A boring story. Boring for a reason. A client on bail on drug charges was looking at a strong crown case and some serious jail time. He lived out of jurisdiction too. 1/13

A year ago today I was making plans to go back to Sudan for the first time since 2009. A year ago today, a brutal war made my cousins, aunts, uncles flee for safety. I haven’t been able to write about it or process it publicly — it’s still not a news story to me. It’s my family.
