Minister Calandra. On May 12, you & your office received an email from us with a report outlining an epidemic of anti-Palestinian racism in ONTARIO schools. We received no reply. Stop "playing politics" with human rights. All discrimination is bad. #onted @PaulCalandra
I am deeply concerned, angry and frustrated with the findings of a recent report on antisemitism in Ontario schools. Schools must be a safe place for every student to learn in a respectful and supportive environment. I expect school boards across the province to focus on…

Al-Haq welcomes @FranceskAlbs report exposing how Israel’s occupation & #GazaGenocide are fueled by corporate entities & even non-profits. The “engine of racial capitalism has transformed the Israeli displacement-replacement economy of occupation into an economy of genocide.”
This is not business as usual. My new UN report, From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide, is out today. It shows how corporations have fueled and legitimised the destruction of Palestine. Genocide, it would seem, is profitable. This cannot continue, accountability must…
