Gathering at Victory Square in Vancouver to remember those that have sacrificed for our freedom

In Vancouver, we remember

In the wake of the Panama Papers scandal, Kevin O'Leary said he'd take his marbles and leave if Canada tried to reduce the tax shelters that protect the rich from paying their fair share.
My response: How can we miss you if you won't leave?

There's no point in any media posting to Twitter anymore.

Clocks in USA go back one hour. Clocks in Russia already went back to 1937.

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

We are extremely concerned Ukraine will be able to use on us the same type of weapons we've been using on them for 3 years and 8 months.

It isn't an escalation when we do it.

someone please tell him his nobel peace prize is waiting at the hague

artwork of some guy hunched over looking at like a bird thing, orange high-relief terrain with starry sky and gigantic skull in background. caption over skull reads actual deadly diseases, caption near guy reads RFK Jr looking for penis autism

it's kind of wild that a guy died a little while ago and the government swore we would reap the whirlwind and that his widow would lead a howling army of valkyries across the galaxy and then the most you heard about it since was the secretary of domestic war saying they arrested the wife of antifa

To state the obvious:
• As a BC Con staffer Lindsay Shepherd was fully aware Dallas Brodie was ejected from BCCons for airing the same toxic opinion & she knew what would follow
• This feels like collusion with Brodie and/or an application to OneBC
• Her mat leave sob story = crybully

imagine telling taylor goddamn swift, with a straight face, that she should perform for free because the exposure is valuable

One reason I do not think Trump is going to create a 1,000 year reich is because he failed to cancel a middling funnyman and immediately pivoted to trying to outlaw not having a headache.

Happy to return to the Lower Mainland and still find #kalyna #viburnumopulus highbush cranberry to be picked and made into jelly. Fall foraging never tasted better!

The most amazing part of this is that the far right didn't target her because she celebrated Kirk's death or even threw his own words back at them.

She merely expressed a well-founded worry that his murder might inspire the far right to greater violence and they apparently took that as a challenge.

hoping to see more charts like these enter the discourse tbh

Real estate, especially in Canada’s most expensive cities, has for decades been considered a sure bet. But the market nosedived—now, some investors are treading water. https://macleans.ca/longforms/canada-condo-market-crash/

On Fox News, the anchor Will Cain choked up on-air as he read aloud President Trump's announcement of the death of Charlie Kirk. "I don't know where we go from here as a news program," Mr. Cain told viewers, "and I don't know where we go from here in America." Megyn Kelly, streaming live on YouTube, was tearful even before the news was confirmed, sobbing with her guest, Glenn Beck of The Blaze. She described Mr. Kirk as a friend who supported her even when her relations with the MAGA world were strained. "I am so sorry to be bringing you this news," Ms. Kelly told her audience. Later

They have never, ever expressed anything close to this level of pain and sympathy for school shooting victims.

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

Global News laid off 26 journalists in B.C. and Alberta today.

In B.C. the layoffs include virtually all of the online team, along with many others.

The business is increasingly cruel, and the hollowing out of newsrooms providing fair and reliable information continues to suck.

It seemed like an innocent #Costco run at 9:30am pacific this morning #somebodyknewsomethingwasup Miss Vickie's chips were $2 off too

Russian drones in Poland had additional fuel tanks to enhance their range. This is highly unusual and another indicator towards a planned nature of this incident.

what a bittersweet discovery that while looking to reply with a company that did excellent repairs to my phone and Apple Watch has since disappeared. Geek Workshop on Joyce, you will be missed!

“Canadians need to cancel the National Post, and Postmedia should be defunded. The tens of millions of dollars that the American-owned corporation receives from the Government of Canada has become a ‘key pillar’ of their business strategy.”

Getting good use out of extra Covid #N95 masks laying around #BCWildfire 🌅 #Vancouver 😷

it is genuinely maddening to see pundits and reporters say things like “well trump has an advantage on crime” while the public consistently says “we think this guy sucks on crime”

Lutnick says Intel has to give government equity in return for CHIPS Act funds The potential deal would convert the CHIPS ACT grants into equity, but wouldn't come with governance rights in Intel, Lutnick said.

This wild abuse of power is flying under the radar.

The CHIPS Act does not demand an equity stake in companies in exchange for funding, Trump has zero authority to make this demand, and withholding congressionally appropriated funds is illegal. But nobody cares.

it has been said over and over but it’s worth reiterating in the face of this horrifying decision: RFK is quite literally joining the war on cancer on the side of cancer
