Thanks @RealTalkRJ for covering the deepening crisis in #Lebanon and the urgent humanitarian needs. Canadians have until November 3rd to have their donations matched by the Government of Canada. If you have the means to do so, please give generously at together.ca

"If you're in a place where fleeing into Syria is your best bet for safety, it's telling you something." @OxfamCanada's @LaurenRavon w/ a reality check on the crisis in Lebanon. 📺 FULL: rtrj.info/102124Lebanon 🎧 FULL: rtrj.info/102124 DONATE: together.ca



Thanks @RobFai for covering our #Lebanon Emergency Appeal - we need more media outlets to cover the human cost of the war. And thanks for encouraging Canadians to give - all donations will be matched by the government of Canada until Nov 3rd secured.oxfam.ca/page/157737/do…

Thanks Claire, I'm really looking forward to ramping up our joint advocacy on inequality and tax justice!

I was really energized to speak to these incredible women who lead Oxfam Canada (@LaurenRavon), Québec (@BeaVaugrante), and America (@abbymaxman). So grateful for their work fighting inequality and for greater justice and dignity, from Gaza to Sudan and all over the world.

What better way to spend a sunny day in Ottawa than on Parliament Hill with @BeaVaugrante and @AmitabhBehar? Thank you @mclaudebibeau @AliEhsassi @Chris_MacLennan @sbergeron for all the great discussions on how Canada can tackle #inequality and stand up for #IHL in #Gaza

Thank you Minister! It is always such a pleasure to work with you - from the early days of putting a #feminist approach at the heart of Canada's aid agenda, to discussing how best to use progressive #tax policies to tackle growing inequality.

Amitabh Behar, Executive Director of @Oxfam International, shared recommendations from civil society organizations to help fuel Canada's commitment to fighting inequality at the local and international level. @OxfamCanada @OxfamQuebec

This is an important step - thank you @melaniejoly We in Canada must put more pressure to stop settler violence & impunity and protect Palestinian land. canada.ca/en/global-affa…


More than 200 aid workers have been killed while delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza, and this latest news from @WCKitchen is devastating. Humanitarian aid cannot be safely delivered without an immediate #ceasfire. The killings must stop now #NotATarget cbc.ca/news/world/gaz…


Must read op-ed!

My oped is in the Star today! “I am not OK with living in a country where working people struggle to feed their families and find decent housing, while in parallel people like me get richer and richer.” #TaxTheRich thestar.com/opinion/contri… via @torontostar



While well-intentioned, air drops are not an adequate response to the humanitarian crisis in #Gaza, where people are on the brink of famine. What is needed is to open all broder crossings into Gaza so aid truck can get in, and keep up the pressure for #CeasefireNOW.

WATCH: Oxfam Canada's Executive Director, Lauren Ravon, speaks to @CTVNews about aid being air dropped to #Gaza amid looming famine and starvation: "The reality is, this is less than a drop in the bucket". #CeasefireNOW



Thankful to have been invited back to the Courage My Friends podcast, this time to discuss @Oxfam's latest report: Inequality Inc. Check out my conversation with Reshma Budhu and @Michele_Biss rabble.ca/podcast/inequa…
