Photojournalism from the Gaza Strip: pop-up exhibit in Moncton

Over the past three years, Palestinian photojournalist Rizek Abdel Jawad has been documenting life in the shadow of the Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip, which has claimed the lives of more than 74,000 people, almost one third of them children. On paper, a ceasefire has been in effect for one year, but the death toll continues to mount.
For Rizek — who lives in a displacement camp with his wife and three young children — the act of bearing witness to this destruction has come with great personal risk: 241 journalists and media workers killed by Israel since Oct. 7, 2023 — the vast majority of them Palestinians in the Gaza Strip — according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

Gasoline surge lifts Canadian inflation to 3.1 percent as grocery and shelter prices cool
Canada’s annual inflation rate rose to 3.1 percent in September from 3.0 percent in August, Statistics Canada reported, as a 27.8 percent year-over-year jump in gasoline prices tied to conflict in the Middle East outweighed cooling in groceries and shelter. Trevor Tombe, writing for The Hub, argues the headline rate actually understates the pressure on households because of the way Canada measures the cost of owning a home. The squeeze landed at the pump and the furnace rather than the checkout aisle. Energy costs were 19.0 percent higher than in September 2025, up from 15.4 percent in August, after crude oil reached its highest level since May amid the wars in the Middle East. Fuel oil and other fuels soared 57.8 percent, an increase the agency said fell hardest on Atlantic Canada, where more households use it. Compared with August alone, prices were up 0.1 percent, a figure that climbs to 0.4 percent once seasonal swings are stripped out.

What does Bill C-39 mean for First Nations? Senators question Carney government
When Senator Michèle Audette questioned the Canadian government over its latest plan to fast-track industrial projects, she started by speaking in Innu-Aimun. For the senator, an Indigenous women’s rights advocate who was a commissioner in the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, speaking the language was a way to centre her Innu community’s past, as Canada tries to shape its future.
