    Colleagues at ALL universities everywhere: pls respect the CAUT Censure UofT and withdraw ALL your labour and participation from U of T - although this may be inconvenient for some of our colleagues and students at U of T, it is necessary now! #CensureUofT

    So disappointing to still be talking about racist classist hiring practices in the academy. But we are… and indeed we must! @tungohan @nnath @DrSailajaK

    The Federal Court has confirmed that Canadian authorities are complicit in US practice of detaining asylum seekers. The STCA is unconstitutional. A rare legal victory.

    Incredible victory today for refugees! Federal Court: the Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA) with the United States violates section 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Congratulations to @AmnestyToronto @ccrweb @CCC_CCE and the Applicants!

    @AlexNeve24 & @MichaelLynk5 Among other critical needs (immediate ceasefire, release of hostages & humanitarian corridor…a Cnd foreign policy reset…an end to the occupation, Palestinian statehood) now is the time to acknowledge our shared history of intergenerational trauma.
