Pointless death by a brainwashed youth. Mental health crisis among teens is already at a breaking point and now they're getting 24/7 emotionally charged war footage and calls to action. You can protest without giving your life and it will be just as effective. Stunts like this sway no one.

And realistically, what the fuck is the Canadian government going to do? Go to war with Israel and by extension the US?

Stop selling weapons to Israel, that would be a good start

Send more humanitarian aid to Palestine

Make it easier for Palestinian refugees to come to Canada
