The stats don’t lie. The Liberal government is aligned with oil and gas companies, with expansion plans that would make it the world’s second highest oil and gas producer.
The mainstream media’s one-sided depiction of what’s happening in Gaza might make you think Canadians unequivocally support Israeli aggression. But nearly half of young people in the country believe Israel is imposing an apartheid regime on Palestinians.
A strong and growing majority of Canadians want the government to build public housing again—after decades of Liberal and Conservative cuts. Watch our video on the legacy of public and non-market housing: youtu.be/Vdu4Nzkkyfg
