"Pomona College used Wi-Fi connection data to identify students involved in the Oct. 7 protest at Carnegie Hall, according to an update on the college’s website and a letter sent to banned students on Nov. 11.

"'The College’s computer and network resources are the College’s property, and students should not have any expectation of privacy when utilizing these resources.'"

In 2018, the CAQ was elected on the promise of providing a family doctor to every Quebecer...

In 2022, the CAQ was re-elected on the promise of providing a family doctor to every Quebecer...

It's 2024, and 1 in 4 Quebecers, or around 2.1M do NOT have a family doctor.

This F*CKING FAUX LAÏCITÉ BS needs to stop and the CAQ need to get each and every one of us a family doctor... or GTFO.

“I would never have imagined in my life that this would happen in the Netherlands.”

Middle East Eye speaks to Janneke de Lange and Mohamed Elbastawisy, who were beaten by Dutch riot police in Amsterdam following a pro-Palestine protest on Wednesday.

The Amsterdam police said that they were "aware" of footage, which seemed to show police officers beating protesters.

The footage shows police officers in riot gear beating people with batons.
