I wish Hannah Bell was running for the @canadiangreens.bsky.social Co-Leadership.
She had me at
Proportional RepresentationβJust Do It.
2016 national public hearings on it showed 88% for P.R.
Try it, then let people vote on keeping it AFTER theyβve tried it once.

Liverpool has the most cooperative housing outside of London. So why does no one know about them?
Ella Benson Easton journeys through the cityβs co-ops to find out why this radical way of living is one of Liverpoolβs best kept secrets
In my twenties, me and my friends set up Equinox Housing Co-op in Longsight, Manchester. Itβs still going strong.
We used the same principles of democratic, collective ownership as these brilliant 50 year old housing co-ops in Liverpool.

Itβs been an absolute pleasure working with @hannahbethbell.bsky.social in the PEI-BWA, on provincial and federal campaigns and of course on housing.
The PEI Rental Registry, which has helped so many, was Hannahβs idea and her unanimous motion but the PCβs ignored the vote. We got it done anyway β

βItβs an existential momentβ: Greens take on Reform in fight for fed-up voters
Party hopes βgreen patriotismβ will help it win seats in true-blue areas such as Wiltshire in this weekβs local elections
Love this article where @theguardian.com followed me doorknocking!
"People are going to vote for change & it remains to be seen whether they vote for the positive message @greenparty.org.uk is giving or if they will vote for Reform & its negative message."

Graphic listing Hannah's many accomplishments including the moratorium on renovictions, rent caps and the rental registry.

βWorse than the technical impediments are the political ones. Our health systems, in Alberta and elsewhere [ahem, Saskatchewan], are administrative disasters, because they are devoid of accountability and micromanaged by politicians.β
We need vision and action & THAT is sorely lacking.

Just to recap following Bessent's briefing to reporters here at the White House:
- Tariffs on China increased to 125%
- 90 day pause on reciprocal tariffs amid negotiations
- Tariff level brought down to a universal 10%
- Canada and Mexico are part of the 10%
- Pause won't impact sectoral tariffs, which are coming soon (pharma, lumber, etc)
Incredibly, in his abrupt reversal on trade policy, Trump seemingly just *increased* tariffs on Mexico and Canada to 10%.
Until today, the U.S. has only had 25% tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminium, and autos, plus 10% on energy and potash. (With the caveat that it's 0% for USMCA-compliant trade.)

TL;DR: The new U.S. tariff rate against our two largest trading partners is either 10%, 25% or 35%, and so far no one I've reached out to at the White House is able to tell me which.

I'd rather a poor person "abuse the system" and end up with more than the bare minimum it takes to survive than a rich person abuse the system to make more money than anyone could ever need.

Did you know that if you're 14+ and a PEI resident, you can vote in the Green Party of PEI leadership contest? There are so few opportunities for young people to have a voice that matters. If you care about our future, then this is your chance to make yourself heard. hannahbell.ca #peipoli

The motion from Premier Rob Lantz to nominate MLA Brad Trivers as PEI Legislative Assembly Deputy Speaker is astoundingly tone deaf and utterly inappropriate given Triversβ demonstrated lack of respect for the role, his colleagues, and the rules of the House. #peipoli
