anada suspended funding to UNRWA in January after Israel alleged 12 employees of the aid agency were involved in some capacity in the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
CBC News first reported on Tuesday that the government intended to resume funding after receiving an interim report from the United Nations investigation of Israel‘s allegations.
The executive authority in Nicaragua published an official statement in which it revealed that it warned the governments of said Western powers that they might be jointly complicit in the „flagrant and systemic violations“ of the Convention on Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide and international humanitarian law in the Gaza Strip.
Nicaragua could move to take Germany, Canada, the U.K. and the Netherlands to the International Court of Justice over their role in aiding Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Nicaragua called on the four nations to immediately stop providing arms, munitions and technology to the Israeli army.
But Israel refuses to share either its evidence or the intelligence dossier – a summary of which was seen by FRANCE 24 – with UNRWA, posing a challenge for the UN agency to complete its inquiry.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency, the main aid agency in Gaza, is set to lose $65 million by the end of February as donors’ funding cuts begin to kick in, according to internal accounting documents reviewed by The New York Times.
France and Japan said Sunday that they were suspending funding to the UN Palestinian refugee agency, becoming the latest country to make such a move after accusations of staff involvement in the Hamas-led October 7 massacre, while Jordan warned that cutting financial support to UNRWA amounted to “collective punishment.”

Driving the news: A senior Israeli official said the Shin Bet and Israeli military intelligence provided information that pointed to the active participation of UNRWA staffers and the use of the agency‘s vehicles and facilities during the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.
„This was strong and corroborated intelligence,“ the official said. „A lot of the intelligence is a result of interrogations of militants who were arrested during the Oct. 7 attack.“

Yaroslav Hunka, 98, got a standing ovation after Mr Rota called him a „hero“ during a Friday visit by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky.
„Wir haben hier im Plenarsaal einen ukrainisch-kanadischen Veteranen aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, der für die ukrainische Unabhängigkeit gegen die Russen gekämpft hat und auch heute noch, im Alter von 98 Jahren, die Truppen unterstützt. Er ist ein ukrainischer Held, ein kanadischer Held, und wir danken ihm für seinen Dienst. Danke.“
So lautete die Eloge auf den als Ehrengast geladenen SS-Veteran Jaroslaw Hunka durch den Sprecher des kanadischen Unterhauses, Anthony Rota. Im Anschluss gab es minutenlangen stehenden Beifall für den 98-jährigen, rüstigen SS-Mann durch die Abgeordneten sowie den kanadischen Präsidenten Justin Pierre James Trudeau und seinen ukrainischen Amtskollegen Selenskyj.

Canada’s federal and provincial governments’ COVID-19 policies were unprecedented. These interventions into Canadians’ lives, our families, businesses, and communities were, and to great extent remain, significant. In particular, these interventions impacted the physical and mental health, civil liberties and fundamental freedoms, jobs and livelihoods, and overall social and economic wellbeing of nearly all Canadians.
These circumstances demand a comprehensive, transparent, and objective national inquiry into the appropriateness and efficacy of these interventions, and to determine what lessons can be learned for the future. Such an inquiry cannot be commissioned or conducted impartially by our governments as it is their responses and actions to the COVID-19 which would be under investigation.

The regular CBC „experts“ bribed hundreds of thousands of dollars. Watch until the end. Rodney Palmer‘s testimony at the National Citizens Inquiry shows CBC planted a fake sign at the convoy and knowingly lied throughout the past 3.5 years at the cost of all good Canadians. The exposure of the CBC has finally come. Find out how CTV and other mainstream news channels also signed on to be part of a new fake news group with an actual name, so they would all tout the same lies at the same time in unison. Support the nationalcitizensinquiry.ca and consider donating to their extensive costs and/or share the inquiry dates WIDELY on all of your platforms.

When the Online Streaming Act becomes law in a few months, section 9.1(1)(e) will give Trudeau the power to order Internet companies like Google, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram to promote or hide whatever news sources he likes.
He can order them to promote the CBC and the Toronto Star, and to make it impossible to find Rebel News. Here’s the wording of the law. Trudeau can, „make orders… respecting the presentation of programs and programming services for selection by the public, including the showcasing and the discoverability of Canadian programs and programming services.”
Let me translate: Trudeau doesn’t have to ban Rebel News anymore. He can just order the big Internet companies to make us disappear. I’ve heard several journalists call this the “Kill Rebel Law” because it so clearly targets us.
But I’ve got news for Trudeau: we will not lay down and die.
As you know, we fight like hell when Trudeau tries to censor us. And we often win — we’ve beat him twice before in Federal Court.
Prominent Canadian psychologist and author Dr. Jordan Peterson said he expects to be taken off of Twitter as soon as Bill C-11 becomes law.
“But Canadians insist on sleeping in the daze produced by @JustinTrudeau‘s narcissistic compassion and undeniable celebrity charisma,” said Peterson in a Sunday tweet.
Die „Situation ist kein Notfall mehr“, sagte Trudeau auf einer Pressekonferenz. Der „Emergencies Act“ wurde am vergangenen Montag, am 14. Februar, erstmals in Kanadas Geschichte angewandt, um gegen die anhaltenden und teils gewaltsamen Aktionen von Maßnahmen-Gegnern der Corona-Pandemie vorzugehen.
„We were slow and methodical, yet you were assaultive and aggressive with officers and the horses. Based on your behaviour, we are responding by including helmets and batons for our safety,“ police said.

The Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) announced today that it will pursue litigation to challenge the federal government’s use of the Emergencies Act.
“We have retained Ewa Krajewska of Henein Hutchison LLP to take the federal government to court. We have said all along that the federal government did not meet the high burden necessary to invoke the Emergencies Act,” said Noa Mendelsohn Aviv, Executive Director of the CCLA.
The letter was sent Wednesday morning.
„We are writing to request that you immediately reinstate the vaccine and quarantine exemptions available to cross-border truck drivers. We understand the vital importance of vaccines in the fight against COVID-19 and continue to encourage eligible individuals to get vaccinated,“ it said.
The letter was signed by 16 U.S. Republican governors, some from border states like Montana, North Dakota and Alaska, some from southern states like Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama.
Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe, joined by 16 American governors, have written to President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau demanding the end of vaccination mandates for cross-border truckers.
The trade group for Canada’s biggest banks on Wednesday said lenders will work to carry out an emergency order from the government to freeze bank accounts for truckers and their parent companies involved in illegal blockades to protest COVID-19 requirements.
The Canadian Bankers Association said its members will “diligently implement” measures laid out by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to impose 30-day suspensions of bank accounts associated with the protest.
Is Schwab trying to destabilize Canadian banks? I can‘t think of anything that could destroy confidence in Canada faster.
Chris Barber‘s arrest was announced during debate in the Parliament of Canada on Thursday, CBC reported.
Barber, who is a senior convoy leader, is expected to face criminal charges, according to the CBC. He has previously said in a press release that politicians have declined to engage in „serious dialogue.“
The Emergencies Act, which replaced the War Measures Act in the 1980s, defines a national emergency as a temporary „urgent and critical situation“ that „seriously endangers the lives, health or safety of Canadians and is of such proportions or nature as to exceed the capacity or authority of a province to deal with it.“
The act gives special powers to respond to emergency scenarios affecting public welfare (natural disasters, disease outbreaks), public order (civil unrest), international emergencies or war emergencies.

„I think it‘s time we stopped dividing the population,“ said Joël Lightbound, seen by some as a rising star in the federal Liberal party.
Trudeau has “not been visible” so far , he said, and people felt the federal government “has been missing”.
Trudeau’s itinerary for Monday showed he was having private meetings somewhere in the national capital region.
