📢29 Canadian organizations, coalitions, and unions sent a letter to @CanadianPM Mark Carney @MSidhuLiberal @AnitaAnandMP calling for a reset on the Canada-Ecuador 🇨🇦🇪🇨trade deal to fulfil his promise to protect human rights and the environment.

RT @avilewis: I mean, come on. Everyone knows the out-of-context screengrab game by now. The more context Vancouverites get about what Sea…

This is the weakest, laziest, & frankly most hilarious smear attempt against a politician I've seen from an institution that considers itself serious. Do you have anyone on your team who understands the internet? This is obvious sarcasm from @seanorr. You even quoted his "FML" 😂

if approved, this motion will kill people every word he says is a lie #vanpoli ctvnews.ca/vancouver/article…

Should have posted this ages ago, but I moved to a happier place over at bsky.app/profile/anjaliappad… May you find your peace on or off this cursed app!

At the end of the day, this is not about climate. This is about an economic and geopolitical hierarchy that is not supposed to be disturbed. #COP29Azerbaijan @COP29_AZ @Cop29News @AGNChairUNFCCC @LDCChairUNFCCC @AOSISChair @Uganda_G77 @UNFCCC @CANIntl @can_africa @AsianPeoplesMvt

As the COP29 climate meeting is reaching its end, it should not come as a surprise that yet another COP is failing. The current draft is a complete disaster. But even if our expectations are close to non-existent, we must never ever find ourselves reacting to these continuous betrayals with anything but rage. The people in power are yet again about to agree to a death sentence to the countless people whose lives have been or will be ruined by the climate crisis. The current text is full of false solutions and empty promises. The money from the Global North countries needed to pay back their climate debt is still nowhere to be seen. The host country - Azerbaijan - is a repressive and authoritarian petro-state that has committed ethnic cleansing and genocidal acts towards Armenians. Civil society present at COP29 are being silenced, yet continue fighting and pushing negotiators towards the bare minimum. All this while oppression, inequalities, wars and genocides all over the world continue to intensify. Those in power are worsening the destabilisation and destruction of our life supporting ecosystems. We are on track to experience the hottest year ever recorded, with the global greenhouse gases reaching an all time high just last year. It is clear that our current systems are not working in our favour. The COP processes aren’t just failing us, they are part of a larger system built on injustice and designed to sacrifice current and future generations for the opportunity of a few to keep making unimaginable profits and continue to exploit planet and people. With every negotiation, with every speech made by a world leader and with every agreement they sign, it becomes clear that it is up to us as a global collective to take the action we so desperately need and show where the leadership truly lies. They are not going to do it for us, as this COP29 yet again proves. #COP29 #PayUp #ClimateJusticeNow
