Canada’s establishment media hasn’t covered the genocide in Gaza—they’ve covered it up.
A new book published by The Breach, When Genocide Wasn’t News, lays bare the media’s complicity.
At the Toronto launch, Desmond Cole spoke to two of the book’s editors, lawyer Dania Majid and Breach managing editor Martin Lukacs.

‘The first video I ever made with The Breach was on why we need to support the movement for Land Back. Today, it’s being used in educational settings everywhere—in universities and colleges and children’s classrooms too. When I give talks, people will say, ‘I saw your video and it helped me understand the issue.’
That’s what we do at The Breach—reach people where they are at, with bold ideas, principled analysis, and critical investigations.” – Pam Palmater, scholar and author

What about Canadian media coverup of the horrific abuse, by service providers in health cared and other fields, of persons with psych sequelae of environmental sensitivities?
Okay, I’m not sure if this is all that brave and bold. You published a book about how the Canadian media narriative didn’t follow what you wanted, but it’s something dozens of other outlets are freely reporting on from around the world and is easily accessible for Canadians.
This will sell good I’m sure, this issue really is huge on social media.
Would you be willing to write on the genocide going on inside Canada? I liked the work you did on the blood plasma. Shedding light on things that people don’t generally even think about is really cool I think.
Thank you so much for covering this topic. It’s insane how the west and its media have supported the genocide of Palestinians. I am deeply ashamed of Canada and worse still are the UK and US who are actively arming Israel while the US is on the ground and participating in the slaughter at the US aid station.
I live in Edmonton. Are hard copies of the book available? Maybe at Audrey’s Books.
I wish to own this book!!
