Education is the cornerstone of a just and thriving society. We will make post-secondary tuition free for all domestic students, establish universal free childcare, and strengthen our K-12 system by reinvesting in public schools. See website for full details! #bcpoli

I am absolutely overjoyed to receive your endorsement, Gabor. Your compassionate, liberatory leadership is a North Star to my work, providing such clarity in dark times. Your work and writing have changed innumerable lives, including my own. It is a true honour to have your support. #bcpoli

The wildest thing about this era is watching so many institutions say out loud yeah, we’re done committing ourselves to excellence, we’re going to specialize in the coddling of mediocre white men

What’s the Venn diagram for folks who complain about Vancouver being a “No Fun City” and folks who want to increase police budgets? 🤔

this is about normalized police corruption

there is no meaningful or effective oversight of the VPD

they're running a protection racket

The British media outlet ITV also went on a Jordanian airdrop and simply ignored the Israeli government’s illiberal demands:

Mark Carney is planning to cut the women and gender equality ministry's budget by 81 percent. What right does he think he has to our parade when he won't even fund our survival?

Incredible footage showing how massive the Sydney #MarchForHumanity was - and this despite the heavy rain! By far the biggest protest I can remember being at in a long time.

Literally had someone ask me this today in response to a point about Israel deliberately starving Palestinian babies death.

Despicable callousness. Beyond inhumane. There’s nothing to say to such cruel people. Let’s instead continue to raise our voices & actions relentlessly to end this genocide.

Lemme tell you the problem with this take. Some services you can’t pay separately.
For example lower taxes that aren’t sufficient to upkeep an electricity grid is something you can’t pay your way out of.
See: Texas. That’s why their infrastructure is shoddy

Public Progress Solutions and Zenith Research polling breakdown between Zohran Mamdani, Curtis Sliwa, Eric Adams, Jim Walden, and Andrew Cuomo

79% of young women support Zohran Mamdani.
67% of Jewish people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani.

There is a quiet tension running through Canada’s housing market. RBC’s latest report declares housing affordability to be at its “best” in three years, yet for most Canadians the reality feels unchanged. The dream of owning a home remains elusive, and the market is eerily still.

I can’t so much as buy a tin of beans without thinking about how our ruling classes are currently enabling a colonial war of genocide and mass starvation in Palestine. If our world had any shred of justice these monsters would rot in The Hague.

that's 2% of the unapproved estimated budget for Task Force Barrage

or 8.7% of one day's budget for the VPD

or 0.003% of projected costs for hosting the world cup

the people in charge at the City of Vancouver should be ashamed but they're not because they're shameless

Voting for the "lesser evil" year after year accumulated into the amount of evil we find ourselves confronted by today. I'm sure there is a 1st grade word problem that can demonstrate this to anybody who still doesn't get it

I actually recognized her immediately - she’s a professor and anti-racism activist. I’m thinking they wanted to both dehumanize her and make her a target. Heinous.

Once you understand this you'll never believe in German guilt again. People who feel guilty about committing genocide don't arm and commit another genocide. But people who wanted Hitler to win do

Imagine the NDP didn't cave to the Liberals 14 months ago and forced the party to actually take a side, rather than scoring a hollow moral victory?

We really need to see how this party will change its tactics, unless it likes the death knell that follows it around.

Hey, remember when the Panama Papers were released and they showed how basically every wealthy person on the planet was avoiding taxes by offshoring their money and nothing was done about it except the reporter who broke the story was murdered with a car bomb?
