I saved the clip before they deleted it. @asherchas was recently testifying in front of US Congress and has hopes of using his report to influence Canadian politics. The historical record should not be erased.

Have any Canadian writers that cheered on the toppling of the Syrian government said anything about what is happening now? Particularly the pro-Palestine ones? Or is it the usual regime change thing where after the government is toppled it goes like this:
