There are a few Canadian citizens stuck in Gaza and very much in danger. I’m hoping that some solution can be found to help these people out.

Bro wtf. The millions of people in Gaza are in danger, how does their individual citizenships matter when there is non-descriminative bombing over the urban areas as well as exit routes? Israelis even bombed and killed prisoners from Israel in Gaza

As a Canadian, dude's probably interested to see how the Canadian government will respond.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Trudeau isn't going to step out of line from American policy to save a few measly Canadians, and Biden won't allow Americans to leave unless Egypt opens their borders to Palestinians (which definitely isn't going to lead to ethnic cleansing, of course).
