Happy to hear the conviction will be in abeyance until this moves through Supreme Court. Glad Justice Murray recognized that these two had noble intentions of saving lives (something elected leaders are reluctant to do). She was bound by the law as written. But this isn’t over!

Very disappointing to hear- Jeremy and Eris were brave enough to do what our elected leaders weren’t in order to save lives, and now will be punished for it. Sad day, but now at least they can run this up to Supreme Court of Canada.

If the challenge is successful, it would not be the first time a Sask Party gov’t loses at supreme court after trying to trample on people’s rights

Hey Saskatchewan, this you?

“Politicians need to do better, and this case is really, really clear on that.” Harm reductionists explain a key victory, as a Supreme Court of Canada ruling affirms protection from possession arrests for people at an OD scene. @maddidellplain.bsky.social reports:

Saving a life is more important than policing small amounts of drug use, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled last month. @michellegamage.bsky.social reports. #canpoli #ToxicDrugCrisis

Helping the rich, Hurting the poor: Liberals 🤝 Conservatives

Liberals and cons might as well just cut the act and be one party.

Check out this great short film, written and directed by Dylan Scott Hryciuk through the amazing production company Versa Films. Filmed right here in #yxe youtu.be/qgJJXscRZ4E

If your son gets texted an illegal picture that he did not ask for, Scott Moe wants to make sure he goes to jail for a year, no discretion

Conservatives seeing a Supreme Court decision, not reading it, completely overreacting and creating a moral panic? Can’t say they are not consistent!

What a shock. Trust me this has nothing to do with their concern for kids and everything to do with demonstrating their contempt for workers and unions and will take every opportunity available to violate workers’ rights

What the Alberta government just did should worry all Canadians. When they legislated striking teachers back to work, they went a step further: They used the notwithstanding clause. This is part of a worrying trend. @emmettmacfarlane.com helped me break it down:

Prairie Harm Reduction has a few questions for Sask Govt and their “compassionate” intervention act. Valid questions, to which I am certain they do not have answers

Same goes for you, Canada

As I am working on a talk and larger project on the importance of worker unions for the preservation of and deepening of democracy, it is worth putting into context how draconian the Alberta government's actions were yesterday with regard to the teachers' strike.

“Alberta’s use of the notwithstanding clause continues an alarming trend of provincial governments putting political expediency ahead of people’s human rights.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed amnesty.ca/press-releas...

When those in power silence workers, they show us exactly who they serve. This is an unprecedented attack on workers. And it is a direct assault on our democracy.

Concerned manufacturers and businesses? LOL

People literally died for workers to have the few rights they have in order to shift the balance of power away from employers that will take every opportunity to exploit us for profit. Don’t you ever for a second believe the Alberta, Sask or even Canadian govt for that matter cares about workers

We don't have rights as long as this clause exists. A gross misuse of power that should send people into the streets.

Keep an eye on these names, companies, and the way this went down in Alberta with regard to the Sask Party plans for forced rehab centres. #Sask #SkPoli

People of Saskatchewan, read this thread as a warning. The Sask Party govt paid ROSC solutions to provide advisory reviews here. What Euan speaks about will most certainly happen in Sask. if given the chance Govt lining pockets of buddies and donors on the backs of vulnerable people

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... Strikes work.

Watch to the end .. we need more of this please!

Solidarity ✊

We are at the point where Danielle Smith would rather violate charter rights and create a constitutional crisis… Instead of paying teachers fairly and giving kids the classrooms they need. Read that again. Because this is where we are. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

👏👏. We need as many people as possible speaking out against this unconstitutional dangerous policy plan.Forced treatment does not work, and I can guarantee it will disproportionately & unjustly used on a certain demographic. I am not optimistic but I sincerely hope every single NDP votes against

Coming soon to Sask

“Overdoses are a medical event - not a policing opportunity.” Huge decision, congrats to Pivot.

“Not only are we NOT going to do that, we are going to continue the failed war on drugs and incarcerate people into forced treatment against their will to prove we’ve learned nothing” - Saskatchewan Party Government

Hey SK Govt, forcing people into treatment against their will is not “compassionate care”. - it is incarceration for something that is a health issue not a crime issue.It is unconstitutional, & when you have no supports for people when they leave treatment, you will be causing more harm.

I’m all for tailgating, it’s fun & should be legal but it’s wild for the govt to make that pledge to allow it while at the exact same time pledge to force people with addictions into treatment against their will. Its clear it’s only a certain “kind” of addict they are concerned with incarcerating

Okay so after 20 years in power, the SK gov’t prioritizes ... *checks notes* Forcing people into addictions treatment in centres we don’t have, and making it easier to get drunk at football games. Am I…am I the only one who sees the irony here? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Honestly, this government's policy response to crisis seems to be to must copy whatever the UCP in Alberta is doing. A real lack of direction. P.S. Globe and Mail, forced treatment is not a 'support.' Its forced incarceration and likely unconstitutional.

Nothing says 'on the right side of history' like sending out a bunch of cease-and-desist letters. It was a fair critique @guyfelicella.bsky.social. drugdatadecoded.ca/i-didnt-know...

its called Campaigning on Fear and EVERY federal and provincial party, EVERY municipal candidate does it otherwise, the public might demand policies that address reality through legislated systemic change to improve people's material conditions we need political bravery, not a politics of fear

Great job by Terri for speaking against this bylaw, kudos to the councillors who didn’t fall for the fear mongering and disinformation put out there. Shame on the 4 who voted for this discriminatory bylaw www.moosejawtoday.com/local-news/z...

We started DULF because we knew nobody was coming to save us, so we had to save ourselves. It worked. But right wing politicians made themselves famous off scapegoating us. The government de-funded us. The cops raided us. But our day in court is here. thetyee.ca/News/2025/10...

This is what concerns people like me in Sask - govt pushing coerced treatment policies in order to line the pockets of their friends - guaranteed you’ll see some MLA’s with board positions now or when done politics. This $$ could be spent on root causes of addiction such as poverty/homelessness

Canada Post loses money offering necessary services that no private company will the federal government gave Canada Post a roughly $1 billion repayable loan .. compared with the over $50 billion in loans and subsidies given to auto companies and battery manufacturers www.marxist.ca/article/carn...

O Saskatchewan! Israel is an apartheid state committing genocide & ethnic cleansing in Gaza. Ambassador Moed denies this & denies his government deliberately starves Palestinians. Instead of rolling out the red carpet for Israel, Saskatchewan should treat it like South Africa was in the 1980s.

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service. Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

The Canadian Justice system loses $20 billion year. The Canadian military loses $34 billion a year. Canadian Health Care loses $372 billion a year. Imagine if Carneys liberals talked about services like it does the Post Office.
