Canvassing table for COPE candidate Sean Orr and a hand giving a thumbs up

Volunteering with @copevancouver.bsky.social through this campaign was a special experience. @seanorr.bsky.social represents the best of our community - and people from all walks of life are coming together to support this movement that is just getting started

This is not a typical election win. An openly anti-zionist, pro-Palestine, socialist candidate getting a vote from over half of those who cast a ballot is a HUGE deal at any level of government in any western country. Feeling extremely proud of this community!

A Police Union Leader’s Controversial Run for Vancouver Council | The Tyee Ralph Kaisers ripped critics of the force and allegedly advised an officer to ignore VPD procedure after a death.

β€œHow are you going to be on city council and have this kind of attitude towards the most marginalized population in Vancouver?” - @seanorr.bsky.social

Police out of politics.

The discourse around this 4nations tournament has become insufferable. That said, I’m absolutely becoming a nationalist for just one night

Vancouver is not just for the 1%.

Sean Orr is running for city council to stand up to the billionaires who buy politicians and elections, to fight to protect tenants, to fight for permanently affordable public housing, and to make Ken Sim’s life hard every single day.

Mixed emotions at the #Canucks game tonight - I’ll jump on the opportunity to boo the US anthem any time. But equally grossed out by the vigour of the canadian anthem. Can we just boo both settler colonial projects? Also, the game was awesome ✌🏻

Yes it was one of the lamest #Canucks games I’ve attended, but! it was worth it to hear (and contribute to) ken sim getting booed

This is one of the most moving things I’ve ever seen and one of the most symbolic depictions of America I’ve ever seen

Traumatic injury mortality in the Gaza Strip from Oct 7, 2023, to June 30, 2024: a capture–recapture analysis Our findings show an exceptionally high mortality rate in the Gaza Strip during the period studied. These results underscore the urgent need for interventions to prevent further loss of life and illuminate important patterns in the conduct of the war.

The study suggests more than 64,000 traumatic injury deaths occurred in the Gaza Strip between October 7 2023 and June 30 2024, 41% higher than the number of deaths reported by the Palestinian MoH. 2/3

The IOF abducted 240 patients and staff from Kamal Adwan Hospital, including the Director of the hospital, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh.

They stripped naked people in the freezing cold, beat and sexually assaulted them, and have taken them to an unknown location.

Will David Eby or Justin Trudeau retract their propagandic/genocide manufacturing statements about this? I think we already know the answer

β€œAn Imagination Party”: How My Toddler Fuels My Vision for Liberation In cataclysmic moments, what can we learn from the free imaginings of children?

In rough political moments, my kid pushes me to imagine bigger.
As I wrote: "If a 3-year-old can dream of cats building skyscrapers, dancing snowpeople, and melodies in the silence of aching grief, then surely, together, we can imagineβ€”and buildβ€”a world without cages."

Trillionaires and tent cities.

This is the only future under capitalism, regardless of which ruling party is in charge.
