#Homeless binner friend made great point that #BCGEU strike could mean big sales boost for any local breweries in #Vancouver & across #BritishColumbia which do their own deliveries to liquor stores - such as 33 Acres, Parallel 49, Red Truck Beer, Strathcona Beer, etc. bsky.app/profile/sqwa...

Alberta, B.C. premiers butt heads over Danielle Smith’s pipeline dreams | Globalnews.ca The premiers of Alberta and British Columbia continue to trade shots over Danielle Smith's call for construction of a pipeline to the northern B.C. coast.

Global News finds a totally deniable way to call both the Alberta and British Columbia premiers butt heads. Well played Global! 🀣

Maybe not explicitly, but U.S. President Eisenhower sent federal troops to Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1957 to enforce desegregation of Central High School, overriding the state's governor's objections, following U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education.

Alberta premier calls David Eby β€˜un-Canadian’ over pipeline proposal to B.C. coast | Globalnews.ca 'It's not the Danielle Smith show, it's Team Canada and we all deserve the same treatment for the same federal money,' David Eby said on Tuesday.

#Alberta Seperatist flirt, Trump groupie & notwithstanding clause fan #DanielleSmith dares to call #BritishColumbia's #DavidEby "un-Canadian" & is not instantly reduced to cinders by heavenly lightning, further proving there is neither God nor Justice.

#BCGEU strike is trickling down. #BritishColumbia govt liquor stores are all closed, reducing consumer options. Private liquor stores in & around #Vancouver's South Granville area are already running out of certain brands & binners think they're already noticing fewer beer cans!

According to fiked patents Tesla's Cybertruck features a multi-layered glass known as "Armor Glass," which includes an outer layer made of borosilicate and an inner layer that is chemically strengthened.

Willing to believe "Armor Glass" is as accurate a label as Tesla's "Full Self Driving". 😝

The outreach worker(s) I refer to were just doing as their jobs and trying to make the best of a somewhat bad system.

We need referenda about:

1.) Going to some kind of ward system.

2.) Ditching the Mayor's office altogether & switching to a council-manager system where a technically skilled city manager is appointed to oversee administrative functions.

#Vancouver mayors are usually useless chatbots.

this

shelters have violence, lice
public housing has bedbugs

telling ppl to live in indignity is not 'helping' them

it's offering a shit option so you can say you did something and forget about them

it is shameful and beneath us as Canadians

Top rule contributing to my quality-of-life as an #unhoused person in #Vancouver has been to stay away from shelters. I remember outreach worker in early 2000s lying that shelters were clean & safe when every #homeless person knew otherwise! Personally, sleeping rough has been cleaner & safer!

Impatient to see the much vaunted "checks & balances" that I've heard all my life are built into the United States political system to prevent exactly what's happening now. Appears tho, that a bunch of fast-moving fascist wannabees figured out the checks & balances only work s-l-o-w-l-y, if at all.

Over on the Hellsiteβ„’ I've asked ICBC if it requires #BritishColumbia Cybertruck owners to have valid armoured vehicle permits. In 2011 B.C. banned vehicle armour & bulletproof glass without permits & Cybertrucks have what Tesla calls "armored glass" & body panels marketed as proof against 9mm ammo.
