1/ A desalination plant supplying drinking water to 30 villages.
A flour and starch factory.
Oil depots blanketing Tehran in thick black smoke and contaminated rain.
65 schools. 13 hospitals.
Centuries-old heritage sites.
These are the latest targets in the illegal US-Israeli assault on Iran.
1/ I was in Toronto last night to surprise my incredible mother, Michele Landsberg, as she received the Ursula Franklin award from Canadian Voice of Women for Peace.

1/ The images coming out of Iran are already unbearable. Reports of an elementary school struck by missiles, killing dozens of people, with scores more killed around the country. Fear and chaos in the streets as families run through smoke and search for safety.

P.S. As far as literary criticism goes, this sure is basic.
My Google Scholar alerts are full of notices that Diane Lillo-Martin has teamed up with none other than Pennycook, C.J. Hall and others to produce a sheaf of literary criticism. Something tells me this is an AI hallucination. 😱

Behind the Books: Kristin Snoddon discusses her book "Being Understood: Deaf Interpreters, Embodied Language and Relationality"

We need to be investing in Ontario's future and that includes investing in our post-secondary sector before it's too late. Algonquin's 37 program closures and the loss of the Perth campus are a small preview of what's coming if cuts to the sector continue.
