You’ll find me @ethicalbacon wherever love and curiosity moves us.
So many ppl worked tirelessly to make the Comox #SchoolStreet a success, hoping it would become permanent. The decision to not make it permanent came from staff. But Mayor Sim and ABC could have provided leadership. They didn’t. That’s the failure. nitter.cf/lucyincanada/status/17…
Thanks Sam. I'm one of many parents, caregivers and community members that put in well over 1300 volunteer hours to keep the School Street operating for over two years to show how wonderful it was for our community.

Dear #America; Greetings from Canada! Meet the new premier (governor) of the great province of #Manitoba. Sound Up!
In Ojibwe our word for drum is odewegan. Also translates to the sound of our heart. @WabKinew is not only a Premier he’s also a lead singer at the big drum.

Indigenous people make up 2% of Metro Vancouver's population. But according to this year's homeless count, they were 33% of our total homeless population.

Wab Kinew will become the first First Nations premier to lead a Canadian province! A historic win for the Manitoba New Democratic Party!

National treasure, if a nation but knew.
Happy birthday to clarinetist Doreen Ketchens, born on this day in 1966 in New Orleans. Here she is performing "When the Saints Go Marching In" in 2012. @doreenja

As an Indigenous woman raising a boy whose grandparents survived residential school, I & our family will always stand with transgender kids & transgender adults, and support gender fluidity, and education that teaches children (and adults) that everyone belongs in this country.
Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation — or Orange Shirt Day. Today, we remember what happens when the Canadian government thinks it's better at raising children than parents. I will always stand with parents. #bcpoli

The #1 cause of death in BC between the ages of 10 to 59 is the unregulated, poisoned drug supply that contains fentanyl, xylazine, benzos and other adulterants. Number one. Let that sink in. There are some people who made it clear over the past couple days that they DO NOT support safer alternatives to help remove people from that deadly supply. If you're unable to understand the complexities of addiction and why someone can't "just stop using drugs" then your ignorant beliefs are part of the reason why we will continue to lose friends, family members and loved ones.

Orange Shirt Day today: National Day of Truth and Reconciliation. We face the past with open eyes, and celebrate the victories when they come. History is being made today and we can still choose to be on the right side of it.
The Kits Point Residents Association court challenge vs. City of Vancouver to try and stop the Sen̓áḵw Development by Squamish Nation was dismissed.  No relief given.  Case closed.

Elon Musk just fired half of the Election Integrity Team at X. Allowing election misinformation to fester on this platform opens our democracy up to further attack and disinformation. But Elon seems fine with that.

The WGA and AMPTP have reached a tentative agreement. This was made possible by the enduring solidarity of WGA members and extraordinary support of our union siblings who stood with us for over 146 days. More details coming after contract language is finalized. #WGAStrike
