In an affordability and climate crisis, our quality of life, water security, housing rights, and affordable home power must take priority over corporate tech giants. The Liberals must halt this reckless infrastructure push. 3/3

Happy May Day! COPE is always on the side of workers. We're fighting to make Vancouver a Solidarity City, a living wage city, a city where no worker is left behind. Thanks to the Vancouver & District Labour Council for organizing a great rally, march, and celebration today.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet. This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

Today is the first-ever World Public Transport Day. COPE is committed to fighting for free, fast and accessible public transit in Vancouver. Sean Orr's proposal for a free bus pilot was shot down in council. But with a progressive majority, we know we can deliver on the city's public transit needs.

Pretty rich coming from the party who lost 5 elected members and fractured into 3 parties in 3 years. A party that broke election finance rules, code of conduct rules, voted against a ranked ballot for mayor, Vote Bus, and allowing 16 year olds the vote can’t lecture anyone on democratic integrity

Ok folks we are back at it again from 1-5. Yesterday was a lot. Heard from so many passionate Vancouverites. Unfortunately I heard the mayor say it was a waste of time. But I assure you, I’m listening.

If we’re being honest, Poilievre and Carney are equally out-of-touch dweebs on opposite ends of the out-of-touch dweeb spectrum. Landlord Pierre has spent his life in politics with no instinct for policy. Banker Mark has spent his life in policy with no instinct for politics.
