"Twenty overdose/poisoning calls for help were made that day in the Harbour City, prompting constant responses from BCEHS and Nanaimo Fire Rescue crews, particularly in the downtown area."
Safe consumption sites and safe supply would be more humane and cheaper than constant emergency services.

A couple of photos of the people who showed up to protest this OneBC talk.
This event was billed as a town hall - but in reality it was a very long talk by Billboard Chris, a Metro Vancouver man who regularly protests gender affirming care, SOGI and human rights protections for trans people.

Isn't Marlaina the one who cost AB billions by giving handouts to already rich o/g producers, buying fake tylenol, paying off foreign coal producers, destroying healthcare, tax cuts for the rich, and various other crap no one needs?

We need a truly Canadian independent policy approach, we need to take meaningful steps to break significant ties with US foreign policy and set international relations based on respect for international law, human rights, and an anti-genocide agenda.

I'm so done with all the "Canada is at risk of BECOMING fascist," as if we're not all sitting on stolen Indigenous Lands, as if Africans and other BIPGM weren't enslaved here from 1628 - 1838, as if police aren't still systemically killing BIPGM like they were created to do.

I don't care about a meaningless apology, Sim owes his resignation to all of us.

Mark Carney challenges Trump abroad while caving into him at home
What we have now is a PM who just does whatever the fascist US demands. I'd rather have a PM who is serious like the NDP about properly supporting Canadians, and less eager to please fascists like the cons/libs.

The fact that it doesn't trigger an election is the exact point Heathcliff is making. If we were serious about reconciliation, we would change our systems so that non-confidence from all Indigenous treaty partners would trigger an election.

Doug Ford wants TTC officers to crack down on drug users. Why some say thatβs a bad idea
The provincial government is exploring a move that would grant greater authority to the cityβs specialized transit peace officers
This will increase the mass profiling & caging (6 months in jail) for Black and Indigenous folks suspected of drug use: a 2021 report found Black and Indigenous riders were βgrossly overrepresentedβ in interactions with TTC officers and special constables. www.thestar.com/news/gta/dou...

Yesterday Ken Sim thanked Lenny Zhou for "taking responsibility for sharing information that was not accurate."
Now it appears Ken Sim himself was a source of the disinformation.

This needs to be talked about more - police frequently harass and try to criminalize the families and loved ones of the folks they have killed, especially when they have been vocal.
