One of the most notable examples of JNF’s greenwashing and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people from their historical homeland is the infamous Canada Park, stretching over seven square kilometers. The area on which the park is now situated was captured and illegally occupied […] in the aftermath of the 1967 war. Under the orders of general Yitzhak Rabin, over ten thousand Palestinians were expelled from their land and their villages were demolished. In 1972, Bernard Bloomfield of Montréal and president of JNF Canada spearheaded a campaign, with the help of Canadian politicians, notably prime minister Diefenbaker, to establish what would become Canada Park. The campaign raised over fifteen million dollars.

This example is merely one of the egregious […] land grabs, actively supported by JNF Canada with their [Middle Eastern] counterparts in the JNF-KKL and financed by tax-exempt charitable donations. Palestinians, members of IJV and our allies have conducted several campaigns to denounce JNF Canada’s complicity in […] apartheid, colonization and violence against the Palestinian people. Thanks to those efforts the CRA audited the JNF, forcing them to promise to stop funding projects that were directly linked to the [IOF]. JNF Canada funded several projects for the [Zionist] military, air and naval bases and even issued a check directly to [Zionism’s] Ministry of Defense.

Despite all their promises to the CRA, CBC investigative reporter Evan Dyer reported that the JNF Canada continued to fund projects directly benefiting the [IOF] in violation of the CRA guidelines for a charitable organization. This reporting relied on the research provided by IJV’s Stop the JNF campaign! None of this would have been possible without the amazing work of the members and the staff of IJV Canada. We continue to apply the pressure to make sure that the CRA follows through on revoking JNF Canada’s charitable status. Make a donation today to help IJV continue this important campaign.

Recently, in its ruling on July 19th, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled in favor of what Palestinians have been saying for decades: the […] occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza — including Canada Park and other JNF Canada projects — are illegal under international law. The ICJ also ruled that to honour their obligations under international law, all states must take concrete steps to ensure that they sever all ties that would make them complicit in […] occupation, colonization and apartheid.

Dear supporter, revoking the JNF Canada’s charitable status is the first step, but certainly not the last. Over 200 [Zionist] charities transfer about a quarter of a billion dollars to [Zionism’s régime] each year. One of those charities is Mizrachi Canada, which has been using the same loophole as JNF Canada to ensure the funneling of tax exempt donations towards illegal […] endeavors and violence against Palestinians. IJV will continue to work hard to ensure that no more Canadian charitable donations are used to fund [war] crimes.

In the span of three hours, Toronto was hit by three thunderstorms, bringing a record amount of rain that caused massive flooding across the city, according to a senior meteorologist with Environment Canada.

"July is typically the second rainiest, second wettest month. Well we had 25 per cent more rain in three hours than we'd have normally in the whole month of July with all the thunderstorms and systems that moved through," Meteorologist Dave Phillips said in an interview with CP24 Tuesday afternoon.

Living with your parents. Living with your ex. Giving up basic needs like food and clothing.

These are just some of the sacrifices Canadians say they've been making to pay rent amid the surging prices and decreased availability marking Canada's rental housing crisis. Demand for rentals is outpacing supply across the country. A recent CBC News analysis of more than 1,000 neighbourhoods across Canada's largest cities found that less than one per cent of rentals are both vacant and affordable for the majority of Canadian renters.

Meanwhile, over half of Canadian renters are spending more than the recommended 30 per cent of their income on rent, according to a recent survey.

"I think it's sickening," Karen Charmbury, a single mom living in Kingston, Ont., told CBC News.

Charmbury, 47, has to make sacrifices because 100 per cent of her income goes to her rent.

An emergency situation has arisen. Both Kalicum and Nyx have officially been charged by Vancouver police with having possessed drugs for the purpose of trafficking under Section 5(2) of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. This will result in a minimum of two years in prison if the prosecution proves that they intended to traffic drugs. The decision to charge Nyx and Kalicum came as a surprise to one of their lawyers, Stephanie Dickson, because the two were providing a humane service to the community in preventing overdose deaths.

DULF’s compassion club

The Drug User Liberation Front managed to gather up a vast supply of pure heroin, cocaine and methamphetamines from the “Dark Web” — internet sites hidden from the normal web — and had it tested for purity. The drugs that were tainted were destroyed, and the drugs that were pure (or close to it) were distributed for free. The fact that these drugs were free prompts the question: What kind of drug trafficker gives away their entire supply for free and with no questions asked?

The model the Front was using is called the “compassion club” model. What is a compassion club? It is a facility or organization that makes pure legal or illegal drugs for recreational use available. In this case, the Vancouver compassion club supplied heroin, coke and meth.

The history of compassion clubs goes back to the 1980s and early 1990s, when so-called “buyers’ clubs” were founded in New York, California, Florida, Texas and other states in order to distribute legal or experimental medications to treat the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). The big difference between a buyers’ club and a compassion club is that the drugs from a compassion club are, notably, free.

DULF’s original plan was to acquire medical-grade diacetylmorphine — using this drug in this instance and not heroin to make clear the division between an illicitly acquired street drug and a medication being used to prevent overdose or death. Yet Health Canada, Canada’s department of health and health policy, refused to grant them access to 100% pure medical graded diacetylmorphine. Even with that as a barrier, DULF still went ahead and distributed drugs to save the lives of chaotic drug users, whose lives were at risk because of contaminants in their usual drug supply.
