The United Church of Canada joins partners in Latin America and the Caribbean and the World Council of Churches in strongly condemning the US military attack on Venezuela. We echo partners voices such as the Ecumenical Department for Research who reject these actions as the reproduction of colonial historic logic in which Latin America is rendered a “territory of dispute” for plundering, control, and discipline. We call on Canada to clearly and unequivocally condemn this violation of international law through armed aggression.

In November 2025, a civil society letter to Canadian officials warned against the US’ unlawful strikes against maritime vessels and urged Canada to halt the sharing of intelligence with the US through Operation CARIBBE and the export of military goods used in US bombing of civilian vessels off the coast of Venezuela that violated international law. No response to these letters has been received to date.

We call on Canada to work with Latin America and the Caribbean countries to uphold Venezuela´s sovereignty. As a member of the World Communion of Reformed Churches, we recall “the binding principles of the United Nations Charter, particularly Article 2(4), which states that nations must refrain from threats or the use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state. Respect for these principles is essential for peace with justice.”

🎄 Alastair Sim as Ebenezer Scrooge in the 1951 British adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is widely regarded as one of the greatest portrayals of the character ever filmed. Sim brings extraordinary depth to Scrooge, capturing not only his miserly cruelty but also the buried sorrow and humanity that make his redemption so powerful.

With his expressive face, vocal precision, and emotional range, Sim transforms Scrooge into a fully realized human being rather than a simple caricature. The film’s sombre tone, rich atmosphere, and faithful storytelling elevate it above many adaptations, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to define how audiences imagine Dickens’ immortal miser. ✨
