Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Justin Trudeau Faces Deepening Political Turmoil After Finance Minister Quits 

HeadlineDec 17, 2024

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing growing calls to step down after his finance minister quit amid a public spat over how to respond to Trump’s vow to impose a 25% tariff on Canadian goods. Chrystia Freeland, who was also Canada’s deputy prime minister, has been replaced by longtime Trudeau ally, public safety minister Dominic LeBlanc, who recently joined Trudeau to dine with Trump at Mar-a-Lago — a meeting that notably did not include Freeland.
