The lab test work was publicly run, then privatized. Wab said that he's asking that it be made public again, which isn't cheap. Anything privatized is a ticking time bomb and this one blew up in Wab's face.

I agree, the only way to extract rights is by hurting the capitalist class. I just feel bad for the patients because lab results are a life or death situation, and that's being used to force people back to work. If the company was held responsible for the delayed work (like penalty fees) or legal liable for someone's death, then I'm sure we would have seen a much quicker turnaround (maybe something the Manitoba NDP should put into law).

If only it were the good ol' days of beating your employer until they agreed to pay better wages.

Definitely a rock and a hard place. Healthcare (including it's downstream work) should have never been privatized to begin with.

While it's still a tough choice, Wab should also take steps to make sure that the negotiations remain public and transparent. The Manitoba NDP need to put their weight behind the workers while they go back to work.

What are you talking about? The reference was from 2025.

Apartheid and genocide are two of many litmus tests and, given the context of the post being about apartheid and genocide in Palestine, Mark is failing it badly

Hi! You're right, I misunderstood some of the context that was being discussed in a Q&A from a panel session with Dr Feroze Sidhwa (one of the doctors from the documentary American Doctor).

They described the 2008-2009 assault (not 2014) as US and Israeli led. The context from that part is that the US provided a ton of logistical, material, and political support (blaming Hamas when Israel broke the ceasefire, passing unanimous motions in the House for arms shipments, opposing calls for an immediate ceasefire).

The Keffiyeh is the garment that Chris Minns has effectively made illegal. The overlay of the Keffiyeh on Chris Minns with his regular wearing of the kippah is to show his double standards of one cultural garment over another.

Pay premium for a privacy focused browser? No.

I'd rather build my own browser from scratch. What fucking world do we live in?

Actually, I'd rather never browse the internet again.

Not to downplay the amount of destruction, but this is after the US and Israel both bombed the Gaza strip in 2014 and didn't allow enough material back inside to rebuild.

So this is how Gaza is going to look for decades because of the US backed Israeli blockade that literally counts how many calories go into Gaza.

The genocide has been constant for decades.

As fucked up as that is piece of info is, there's plenty of other reasons that take precedence on why this jackass should not be writing kids books. All around, he's a fucking turd who puts Hitler to shame.

Yeah, he gave an interview basically blaming the Palestinians and saying that they should just agree to live under a Zionist state. The dumbass literally told an oppressed people to live under apartheid and be happy about it.

Probably wrote it for his wife when they first started dating when she was 15 and he was 26.

Some might even say Lebensraum

Good enough for Robert "don't allow hate speech at my venues" Kraft though!

I still can't believe that there hasn't been any lash back by the Canadian government at US conglomerate owned Post Media's National Post or the shithead writer using hateful and fanatical rhetoric to elicit violence against a Canadian politician.

Rachel Gilmore is an award-winning journalist with extensive experience reporting on federal politics, human rights, disinformation and extremism.

Here literal job with CTV was to host a fact checking segment. And she did a really good job of fact checking. I wish more journalists bothered with facts.

"must do better" - what they did was they expelled 2 of the rapists and made the others write essays (yeah, read that again). So they must do better (they still can btw), all while they were very quick to apply a 3 year campus ban on students protesting genocide for perceived "safety reasons". But druggy rapists just need to write essays.

Goes to show you where Cornell's priorities are...

Colonizers always destroy the ecological attachment that indigenous people have to their lands. Not only that, it's a source of healthy food and revenue for Palestinians.

Israel also has laws preventing the harvesting of native plants that are a cultural and vital food source for Palestinians that live in rural areas.

Super mensch move! Boycott Israel like Apartheid South Africa was boycotted

People still regurgitate the same colonial talking points "they brought medicine, roads, schools, writing, etc..."

Ben Gvir had a big part in stoking hatred and inflammatory language that led to the killing of Yitzhak Rabin

Rabin was killed while getting into his car in 1995, by a Jewish extremist at a rally in Tel Aviv - retaliation for signing a peace agreement two years earlier with Yasser Arafat, the chairman of the Palestinian Liberation Organization.

Ben-Gvir, Netanyahu and other rightwing figures who stood against the peace agreement organised a rally in Jerusalem's Zion Square a month before Rabin's killing, during which protesters shouted "Death to Rabin".

A photo of Ben-Gvir carrying an emblem from Rabin's car was republished recently. Ben-Gvir reportedly said, "We got to his car, and we'll get to him too."
