I'm here in Hamilton, for @TheCanadaFiles, covering the 2nd stop of Dimitri Lascaris' Canada-wide tour: "Making Peace with Russia, One Handshake at a Time".

Ukraine supporters have already made their presence known and are trying to get in without tickets. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
First interruption of the event, stopped quickly.
Look for more clips in the morning.
An Iranian-Canadian attendee spoke about the myth of freedom and democracy in Canada, rejecting a previous question asker who said people in favour of Lascaris' tour should be grateful to be in Canada.
2/2 of the rebuttal and Lascaris' response.
An audience member was very concerned about the rise of neo-Nazism, centered on Ukraine, and stated her concern about lack of Jewish resistance to Canadian government policy which has supported them. Lascaris responded.

2/2, end of Lascaris' response.
Before the Hamilton event began, Dimitri Lascaris shared his thoughts on the London stop of his cross-Canada tour.
Before the event started, Lascaris shared his thoughts on how the Hamilton stop of his tour was set to go.
After the event was over, @CcarKen of @HamiltonHcsw talked about successfully holding the Lascaris talk despite attempts to shut it down. He said that the broader Lascaris cross-Canada tour is a critical moment to build a constituency for peace in Canada.

Beyond parody. Trudeau is pretending that having a Truth & Reconciliation Commission in Canada, while a genocide is still ongoing against Indigenous Nations, gives Canada moral ground to ignore China's call for a UN investigation into Canadian genocide.

Additionally, the CBC article even cites the thoroughly debunked Raoul Wallenberg Centre & Newlines Institute report showcased to regurgitate debunked claims of alleged genocide in Xinjiang. Kudos to @ajitxsingh & @TheGrayzoneNews for exposing the report.

I wrote this article for @TheCanadaFiles on why it is farcical to equate debunked claims of "genocide" in Xinjiang to an undoubtedly proven and ongoing genocide against Indigenous Nations within so-called Canada, it's worth a read.

Hahaha I actually think they might do that. I could see it. Matthew Green wilding on Twitter dot com, calling anyone asking for a $15 minimum wage a "tankie".
This is what I'm referencing for context.

While I have your attention, I'd raise this report, and ask if you'll oppose Canada building a new "democracy promotion" institute.

It's an explosive one folks. Canadian parliament wants to build a formal "democracy promotion" institute, to build upon the current regime change efforts led by CIDA and Global Affairs Canada.
Rights & Democracy was legislated into existence in 1988 and was in operation by 1990, with all party support. The first head of this organization was @broadbent institute founder & former NDP leader Ed Broadbent. He led the organization for seven years.

Even organizations you'd think aren't involved in democracy promotion, are in fact involved. A prime example of this is Elections Canada.
