this is the level of Government that approved a $50,000 grant to a sportwashing event featuring the Genocidal Israel. This is totally the right venue to ask two of the votes in favour to justify their support for genocide.

no problem. it would have been so easy for them to do the right thing, it's not like the $50k was going to make a difference to the organizers. I have no problem with it being thrown in their face at every opportunity.

I remember reading that staff recommended funding it and didn't recommend a big youth event that's happening, and Laura White pushed for the youth event. I didn't realize the tennis match was a Canada/Israel event. I try to keep up, but it's not always easy.

It can be a full time job (or “hobby”) to keep up with all the city shenanigans
