It doesn't feel quite right but I wished to thank my @OsgoodeNews community for securing me with tenure and a promotion to Associate Professor. osgoode.yorku.ca/news/dean-farr… I have been helped by many. And I have been inspired by the work, courage and spirit of so many. I thank them.

For 60 years, the U.S. and Canada have managed the shared waterways of the Columbia River through the Columbia River Treaty. Yesterday, @SecBlinken and @melaniejoly celebrated our countries reaching agreement in principle to care for this vital resource for the next generation.

Hard to believe that this counts as front-page, above-the-fold news: "New national security council has only met four times" Membership announced: late Sept 2023 Today: early Feb 2024 So 4 meetings in 4 months. That's infrequent? theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

Ukrainians are on the frontline fighting not just for their freedom, but ours as well. Poilievre’s Conservatives have abandoned their support for Ukraine but we never will.

BREAKING: Pierre Poilievre and Conservative MPs just voted to cut funding for Operation UNIFIER - 🇨🇦's mission to train 🇺🇦 Armed Forces. The Ukrainian people are fighting for us & we need to be fighting for them.  Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre don't support Ukraine.

Canadian Muslims, Arabs, and Palestinians are worried about their loved ones, their rights, and their safety. When I met with @AmiraElghawaby yesterday, we spoke about these fears and the work we must continue to do together to combat Islamophobia and all forms of hatred.

Canada is increasing its humanitarian assistance for the region to $60M. Unimpeded access to a humanitarian corridor for life-saving assistance to get to Palestinian civilians is more critical than ever.

I am elated to announce that the first group of Canadians have now safely crossed from the West Bank into Jordan. Thank-you to our teams in Ramallah, Amman, Tel Aviv and Ottawa, who worked around the clock to make this happen.
