2025 has been a devastating year for trans people in Canada. Here's a year in review of all anti-trans legal developments out here since the beginning of the year. celeste.lgbt/en/2025/12/2...

Montreal!

Surrey Police killed a woman this morning. The second woman they've killed with a cop car this month. Surrey Police Service Strike and Kill Woman with Police Vehicle (December 25, 2025) killercopscanada.wordpress.com/2025/12/26/s...

This is dedication to a niche. www.youtube.com/@CanadianCom...

There is no reforming this.

Reboot has been saved from backup tapes to pixel accurate reproductions of the original renders. Still work to do, but the bulk is good. Kudos to Marc from Vancouver based Disappearing Inc and the rest of the team! www.youtube.com/watch?v=L00j...

A christmas miracle. /s

“Since they are Canadian, I would not rule out treachery” should be our new badge of honour :) 🇨🇦

We see dehumanization like this before Americans invade. "Global TV may have been merely careless in letting the segment out, but since they are Canadian, I would not rule out treachery" -Graeme "It is possible to kill children legally" Wood

Torn between wanting to fight attacks against the press, and laughing at the slow demise of an establishment paper that's enabled the genocide of trans people, covered for Epstein, etc.

The original cache of DataSet 8 (with the incorrectly redacted files) has been added to @ddosecrets.com

"The new measures also appear as attempted capitulation toward the Trump administration to 'secure' the border, in order to appease the president… "But all it really did was erode Canada’s image… and shirk international agreements to help asylum seekers…" www.theguardian.com/world/2025/d...

Probably verging on conspiracy theory territory, but there has been a lot of attention spent on leaks and press conferences in the last day.

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.

Yet another example of Flock cameras in the wild having no security, this time affecting their latest cameras which automatically zoom in to look at people's cell phones, etc. Flock cameras are incompatible with democracy and freedom. Removal is necessary. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU1-...

lol holy shit

All of these links went to promotion of this story earlier today. All these links are dead now — that's how thoroughly they've scrubbed this.

“There’s never been a moment when someone’s like ‘oh, I didn’t want to let you know I really want universal child care.’ … When you say ‘I’m a moderate,’ or ‘I’m a centrist’ I immediately know you’re right-wing, and I also think you’re a coward.”

It's not "conversion" it's "reversal". Entirely different apparently.

There's also an Anna Ramsbottom of Sheffield children's hospital who appears to be openly advocating for conversion therapy in the teams chat.

Happening today

It was blatantly obvious from the outside but this is great confirmation of it. The entire shift in coverage started in 2022. Previously, trans coverage was covered by relevant reporters in their field. Now it's centralized in Azeen Ghorayshi and Amy Harmon to ensure ideological consistency.

This thread by a former NYT editor documents how the NYT came to push the Cass Review so hard over other reviews. It was dictated from the top by editors. They sidelined their own London reporter to put Azeen Ghorayshi on it.

our last show of 2025 / an opportunity to beat our bassist at chess / princess avenue's first show in a while / the lunchtime band's last show ever / grade school also playing. sunday dec. 21st. red gate arts society (1965 main st.). doors at 8pm. $15 / PWYC.

The video is almost as good as watching Jake Paul getting beaten. Funnier certainly.

The BC SPCA could use some help because some POS sealed 32 cats into plastic bins using tape and dropped them off in front of the SPCA. spca.bc.ca/donations-em...

The Extreme Weather Alert has been extended on December 19 through December 22, 2025 due to: feels like temperatures at or below 0°C. vancouver.ca/images/web/s... The Nest is a shelter in Vancouver for trans people 19+ vancouver.ca/files/cov/sh...

At the HHS announcement yesterday announcing proposed rules to ban GAC, they said trans people are "at the root of the evils we face" and are "a hatred for nature as God designed it and for life as it was meant to be lived.” Just in case you thought it was about concerns for proper healthcare.

"Rowling will undoubtedly receive substantial royalties from the Fortnite skins… That money will likely be funneled into her hate campaign against trans people. "… over a third of… funding for the [U.K.] case came directly from Rowling…" www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/12/fort...

"Over 400 Canadians have been detained, and the majority have no real criminal record whatsoever. Going over the border as a snowbird and having a record for pot possession in your twenties could net you a concrete floor in an American gulag…" charlieangus.substack.com/p/torture-st...

Went back further. An officer looked up their tenant. Another looked up a contractor. One officer "had a habit of running names of friends and relatives." Another looked up their ex 20 times. All told that's about 50 officers with substantiated complaints of misusing police databases. But why audit?

Here are excerpts from OPCC reports of BC officers caught misusing police databases. They looked up family members and exes, a woman an officer "was interested in," a nurse, and a convocation speaker. Some officers used databases for a "business venture." But VicPD doesn't audit database use. (2/2)

Stories about officers misusing police databases to look people up who they shouldn't are incredibly common. And yet, when I asked VicPD for copies of any audits they'd done to look for unauthorized database use, they said "no audits have been conducted" over the six-year period I asked about. (1/2)

The Harry Potter "experience" in Vancouver might not be doing so well. As kids go on holiday break we see a new 15% off weekday tickets. Only a few days have any sold out timeslots (at the same time every day, 7:15pm?) In Jan, it's not running Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays

It's OK to not want to be around your family, no matter how much they and the WSJ guilt trip you. www.damemagazine.com/2025/12/18/i...

Anyways, forever reminder that this fabrication of moral panic around trans people is not exclusive to Trump and the U.S. and it is very much happening in Canada too xtramagazine.com/power/politi...

It's just so fashionable right now

Vancouver - some scammer is putting QR codes on city parking meters that redirect you to a fake payment website. Vancouver does not use QR codes for parking payments (some private lots do) www.facebook.com/CityofVancou...

Today is the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. Solidarity with sex workers! In Vancouver.

Latest phone scam seems to be "I've received your resume, please contact me via wechat" But the bot can't say wechat correctly. smh. We really need to be blacklisting shady VOIP providers or at least have some kind of KYC system in place. Really tired of this.

This isn’t even all of the AIDS quilt. It was so long they didn’t have room to display it all. Reagan flat out fucking murdered queer people
