Only 22% of civil society organizations have “defined a strategy and timeline for achieving digital readiness.” Contributors Katie Gibson and Marc-André Delorme explain why that needs to change. thephilanthropist.ca/2024/04/the-ca…
The Jewish Federation of Edmonton cynically attacks service organizations that dare to speak out against Israeli violence. Having destroyed the #UAlberta Sexual Assault Centre they are now going after the Pride Centre of Edmonton as well as Palestinian organizers. Shame on them.
"This morning I learned the English word gauze comes from the Arabic word غزة or Ghazza because Gazans have been skilled weavers for centuries. I wondered then how many of our wounds have been dressed because of them and how many of theirs have been left open because of us"

THREAD: Hillel & Campus Repression -- What does the on-campus Israel lobby look like?
I am horrified by the images from Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza and more IDF attacks on humanitarians. Canadian Parliamentarians have demanded an arms embargo, a ceasefire and immediate action to end this horror. Where are you now @melaniejoly @JustinTrudeau? theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…
More and more Edmontonians (including Jews) are seeing through vindictive @JewishEdmonton attacks on critics of Israel. Ignore these sad old zionists pushing bankrupt excuses for apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. We appreciate @JanisIrwin's principled stand on Palestine.

Canada must protect the lives of innocent civilians in Gaza and resume funding for UNRWA. 80% of all people in the world experiencing famine or catastrophic hunger are in the Gaza Strip & 2.2 million lives are hanging in the balance. Canada's funding pause is not just a…
Visiting #Jenin - a refugee camp in the West Bank - was deeply painful. In my lifetime I have travelled to many places where human suffering is omnipresent and where violence and poverty permeate every moment but what I saw in Jenin was amongst the worst places I’ve ever been.
I wrote to @melaniejoly asking Canada not to oppose South Africa’s application to the ICJ on Gaza & to accept the Court’s decision. Canada must stand for justice for all people and let the Court do its work. Read my letter below. #CeasefireNOW

Breaking: Children from displacement camps in Gaza are raising the names of American universities whose students have protested against the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
I’ll have more to say later (once the workday finishes) regarding why this was an attempt to misuse private law and injunctive relief, and it was right for the Court to shut down the application.

When I was 11, I was a victim of police brutality just for being Black in America. Now I see that brutality being inflicted on peaceful students at Columbia and across the country. We must stand with our students to demand liberation for Palestinians and everyone in this world.
An elected official openly espousing racist views… wonder if National Post, Globe and Mail, and CBC will focus on Levi like they did the politicians who called for a ceasefire (which was not racist)
Given the recent behavior of the pro-Palestinian group, Canada should reconsider its immigration plan for Gazans. Their values seem incompatible with ours, and I have no desire to welcome more hatred into our country.

Clare Daly, a Member of the European Parliament from Ireland, gave this speech in Parliament. It’s powerful & short. Please watch. As the Irish PM told Joe Biden in March: When it comes to the suffering in Gaza, we Irish know about Starvation and being told we don’t exist.
“200 days of Israel systematically wiping Gaza from the earth, 505 bombs a day, with the active complicity of the EU who increased the flow of weapons to Israel tenfold! European values: same as it always was, murder & colonialism.” —Irish MEP Clare Daly
I'll be there in support. Every single one of us must work together to challenge this racist Keffiyeh ban. @fordnation move a motion, collect your people and reverse this ban. You can force community out of the building, but you can't silence us all. Ball is in your court.
