If you’re free tomorrow night, consider coming out for this event!

With everything else going on, the Tylenol “announcement” may seem minor. But it’s not. The Trump admin’s lies about acetaminophen are part of the same agenda: controlling women’s bodies, demonizing them, and making them suffer needlessly. A policy of intentional cruelty and othering.

Nations’ plans to ramp up coal, gas and oil extraction ‘will put climate goals beyond reach’

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

Under the UNFCC Canada is not responsible for the downstream combustion emissions of the fossil fuels we export. So we conveniently ignore them (as in Ksi Lisims Assessment and BC and fed announcements today), though those GHGs are more than Canada's territorial emissions to the global atmosphere.

Don’t give money to companies that obey fascists in advance.

'“We recognize that LNG facilities, along with natural gas pipelines...has deeply affected Indigenous communities & ways of life, & that Ksi Lisims LNG will contribute to cumulative effects on ecosystems & communities,” [Tamara Davidson & Adrian Dix] wrote.' But we're gonna approve it anyway!

Carney is privileging those supporting fossil fuels, while violating the standard of FPIC for those who do not. Nations who oppose LNG will be subjected to costly legal battles and militarized police violence, while Canada invests in a dwindling LNG market and risks being stranded in a global glut.

They’re doubling down and claiming ignorance. Send them an email and call them out! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Just a few hours until tonight’s event on the health + Indigenous rights impacts of LNG & fracking in BC. Hear from Grand Chief Stewart Phillip, Dr. Ulrike Meyer, Gitxsan Firekeepers Drew Harris & Grace Vickers, Dene Ze’ Na’Moks & more. 7pm @ UBC MSAC in Mount Pleasant. RSVP if you haven’t yet!

One way to help keep that number from going up would be to stop expanding the LNG industry. LNG is a fossil fuel with warming potential equal to or greater than coal. And the BC NDP are all-in on its expansion.

It's disappointing to see the Vancouver Park Board host a Harry Potter "experience" in Stanley Park. This will funnel money to possibly the world’s most vocal transphobe. Vancouver is supposed to be an inclusive, LGBTQ+ supporting city, and we absolutely shouldn’t be platforming her.

ANOTHER pedestrian is dead on this exact same stretch of Lougheed. When is enough enough? Do these cities and the province care at all? It sure doesn't look like it. vancouver.citynews.ca/2025/08/31/m...

Hey @cityofvancouver.bsky.social would it be possible me to move the fences over a little bit so these bike racks outside Science World are accessible? This location gets a lot of cargo bikes, and the other rack fills up quickly. @lucymaloney.bsky.social @petermeiszner.bsky.social

ROUND 1 VOTING IS ON NOW! 🗳️ We asked you to nominate the worst intersection in Metro Vancouver, and we picked the worst 32 for a community vote. Together, we'll crown Metro Vancouver's worst intersection while learning more about the countless ways that we put safety last when designing our roads.

Hidaya Al-Motawaq's son is a year and a half old and weighs less than 10 pounds. Doctors warn of permanent damage to children's health due to chronic malnutrition from Israel's earlier blockade.

Action alert: The City of Toronto is considering restricting fossil fuel ads. These ads undermine climate action & put everyone at risk. We have a short window of time for the City Council to act. Take action here: cape.ca/action/ban-f...

Crash today at Broadway & Lakewood, right in front of the school my kids attend. Hundreds of kids cross here daily. 15 crashes annually. No school zone. No traffic calming. No enforcement. 40% of drivers speed here. Each hour, 10+ go 20km/h over. One per day hits 100km/h! & the City does nothing.

Next speaker Rhi @rhifaux.bsky.social . Resident of East Van, parent of 2 school-aged kids. Safe streets are the difference between a trip to school being joyful or scary. Difference between independence for her & her kids, or the fear that they won't make it home safe.

CAPE BC has submitted a letter to Vancouver City Council in support of Councillor Maloney’s motion to develop a Vision Zero Road Safety Policy and Action Plan. Why? Because safe streets are a public health issue. (1/5)

Ross Lake, Skagit Valley Provincial Park, BC. 💙

I want a city where I don’t fear for my kids’ safety when they walk, bike, or bus to school. We all deserve to get home safely. If you’re in Vancouver, please take a minute and act on these upcoming traffic safety motions—send an email or sign up to speak at council today!

LNG is not a climate solution, & @cape-acme.bsky.social doctors are speaking out. The first tanker has left LNG Canada, but health experts are warning of the real costs: worsening climate impacts, air pollution, & risks to frontline communities. www.theenergymix.com/canadas-lng-...

Absolutely devastated. Trump’s move to rescind the Clinton-era Roadless Rule means 58 million acres of irreplaceable forest, from old-growth in Alaska’s Tongass to vast expanses of Idaho wilderness, will be exposed to logging, roads, and increased fire risk. This breaks my heart.

‘Responding to Friday night's unrest, the acting director of ICE calls the events "appalling". "Our brave officers were vastly outnumbered, as over 1,000 rioters surrounded and attacked a federal building," Todd Lyons says in a statement.’ 😒 Does this guy hear himself?

New polling shows that British Columbians want public funding for healthcare, housing, and education -- not oil and gas infrastructure. And 54 percent of British Columbians support pausing further LNG development until an independent health impact assessment is conducted.

"We’re talking about nearly half the tree of life disappearing in one human lifetime. That is absolutely catastrophic.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

In theatres in Vancouver, Victoria & Nanaimo starting Friday: 'Fairy Creek', a powerful new film capturing the hope, heartbreak & complexity of Canada’s largest act of civil disobedience. A must-see for all who care about forests, justice & the future. www.cinemapolitica.org/film/fairy-c...

This is an incredibly beautiful and moving film. If you're in Vancouver, I highly encourage you to go see it this week. You could even win a pair of free tickets!

Guess which headline is from the @nytimes.com ? The Guardian calls out dangerous rhetoric and lies for what they are. The NYT wraps them in euphemisms and "both sides" spin. This is how the obscene becomes normalized. Journalists - and all of us - need to stop pretending this is politics as usual.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 63 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I guess I’ll have to bring my banjo the next time I speak to city council.

My cousin was evacuated last night because of wildfire. This is the climate crisis. Yet the BC NDP want to build another fracked gas pipeline? Tell Premier Eby and Minister Davidson: Stop the PRGT pipeline. Send a letter now: www.dogwoodbc.ca/petitions/pr... #StopPRGT #FrackFreeBC

Beautiful piece of science writing from an immigrant scientist who moved to the US to escape persecution as a dissident in Russia, only to end up in ICE detention. Gorgeous images too! 🎁🔗 #AbolishICE

Things are getting real bad, folks.

Dr. @timtakaro.bsky.social of @cape-acme.bsky.social says if LNG & pipelines aren’t intended, the law should say so—future governments might not interpret it that way. "It's crucial that we not make it easier to build fossil fuel energy infrastructure, & this bill does make it easier," he says.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans. These are their stories 🧵

I just placed a pre-order for this book (from my fave local bookstore, Iron Dog Books). Can't wait to read it!

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

Imploring City of Vancouver engineers to understand that this is not a recipe for patio enjoyment or success. Loud, polluted, and one driver mistake or medical emergency away from disaster. Stop ruining vibrant commercial streets by simultaneously making them car sewers.

Imagine writing a novel-length LNG puff piece, and still managing to skip over the whole “methane is cooking the planet” thing. No mention of the serious health impacts of fracking and methane gas either. Incredible commitment to missing the point.

Just signed up to speak in support of the Commercial-Broadway rezoning at the May 15 public hearing. 1,000+ rental homes, no displacement, daycare, grocery store, at the busiest transit hub in the city—exactly what we need. The opposition is mobilized. Send in your comments or sign up to speak now!

Pedestrians who are hit by SUVs are 44% more likely to be killed than if they were hit by a conventional car, new study finds. Children are 82% more likely to die when hit by an SUV than by a car. In children under 10, the risk of death was 130% higher. Regulate vehicle size now.

This morning, Ken Sim made a direct call for the expansion of involuntary mental healthcare in response to the horrific incident at the Lapu Lapu Day festival. As a road safety group, we'd also like to point out the importance of considering preventative measures from a road safety perspective. 🧵

Vision Zero Vancouver is devastated by the horrific events that unfolded at the Lapu Lapu Day Block Party.

My friend and former neighbour Christi and her son Nox were injured in the horrific vehicle attack at Lapu-Lapu Day in Vancouver this past Saturday. Please consider donating to support their recovery: gofundme.com/f/help-christi-and-family-recover-from-the-lapu-lapu-tragedy

Don't forget to VOTE today, Canada!

CBC's coverage of LNG here ignores the alarming associated health risks. At CAPE, we're deeply concerned about air pollution, increased asthma rates, & long-term community health deterioration from LNG development. Any analysis that ignores these serious health costs is incomplete & irresponsible.
