Municipal Politics update for Ladysmith, British Columbia: The mayor doesn't understand the intent and purpose of a land acknowledgement and has omitted saying that this land is unceded in such acknowledgments, and is fighting against correcting the correct to show that she didn't say such things.

"What the bureaucrat was suggesting... is that there would soon be so many people ...killed by AIDS that there would be a smaller number at risk of catching the virus. ...translate to a smaller number of deaths. “Bud lost his shit... he starts screaming. ‘Are you fucking serious?!’”

there used to be a place like this in the downtown eastside. the funding was cut and it closed. dignity isn’t a line item on a budget; it’s beyond any price

if Health Canada renamed their Canadian Substance Use Survey (CSUS) reporting HOLD MY BEER, it would probably get more attention. www.canada.ca/en/health-ca...

The BC Greens reject any amendments to weaken the Declaration Act. The work of reconciliation is complex, but that is precisely why we cannot weaken the framework designed to make it real. #bcpoli #UNDRIP READ MORE: bcgreens.ca/bc-greens-re...

Look at this.

shame that bolivia just tried to do this for all of us and the WHO shut them down

I don’t think Canadian leaders should be engaging with a US government led by this person and the sycophants who have created an artificial world around him.

I doubt it was someONE because holding the report back all week would require several committee meetings of robust debate to decide that burying the report was the best way to prevent robust public discussion and hilarious zingers with memes about the Non-Democratic Party all week long

arent we all glad that jagmeet singh apologized to the colonizer for attending kendrick lamar's show

Looking forward to my copy arriving! Wrote the chapter on Vancouver with @bushfield.ca.

Canada's "brutal environment" for most people—precarity, inequality, and corporate rule—created by consecutive decades of shitty conservatives and neoliberalism, is the best possible incubator for a genuine 'left' party; so this is a goodbye flounce of an un-serious NDP #cdnpoli

Did we fail to offer a plan for a better future to the public by condescending to them with meaningless catchphrases? no way because we are perfect IT’S THE VOTERS WHO WERE WRONG the new leader has to clean house. Fire everyone. all the directors. everyone delusional. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

quick reminder that Canada was happy to assist with the false justification for this murder spree and is complicit in all the U.S. government’s actions that followed and silent. saying nothing says it all www.canada.ca/en/public-sa...

there’s no need for an oil & gas industry when you are the premier who appoints yourself the chair of a panel that takes a poll for the report that you release on the Friday before xmas with this much big loser energy

for more than one hundred years, Canadian governments have blamed Indigenous people, immigrants, and people who use drugs for their failure to invest in social infrastructure

Necropolitics and fascism are logical ends of racism

you could say he's a long time “pro-death activist”

Travellers bemoan masked secret police violently enforcing the president’s policy of white supremacy by demanding identification papers, threatening children, separating families and kidnapping people

Washington State set up a special unit to investigate cold cases of missing and murdered Indigenous people. They just got their first conviction www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

the impunity of this as cop lobbyists demand that governments expand police surveillance powers and link health records to body camera & CCTV data & financial data & Bill C-2 C-12 and your travel history who owns it police don’t have tools; only weapons

Hiring managers keep telling me I’m not getting the job because of my huge juicy tits and fat ass

I wonder if Canada has the authority to enforce the Canada Health Act too

my book echolalia echolalia is about being a person in these times and it's also very autistic queer and silly.

Beyond unethical. A for-profit plasma donation corporation is using "gamefied" financial incentives to lure poor people into risking their health by donating plasma up to 100 times a year. This is the end-game of dystopian privatization and it should be stopped. www.torontotoday.ca/local/health...

this is media suppression.

FOI filing spreadsheet is up to date and I'm discussing FOI tips and tricks with some student reporters so let's take a little look back at the year in FOI filings, shall we? It is truly a great and functional system that is definitely not turning my hair greyer by the day 🥲 #bcpoli

This week on the Mongabay Newscast @philjaco.bsky.social explains how he, @bykarlamendes.bsky.social and @pulitzercenter.org's Kuang Keng Kuek Ser uncovered the fact that state governments in Brazil have been serving shark meat to thousands of public institutions. Listen to full story here:

YEAHHHHHHH

The parliamentary calendar for 2026 is out Throne speech drops on Feb 12 Budget day is Feb 17 Usually, the house doesn't sit the week following holiday Mondays but this year it looks like it will be in session following the Family Day and Victoria Day holidays #bcpoli

the provincial government has given these municipalities one more chance, seems to me, by issuing mandates and if they are ignored, I think the government is going to fuck them up and be very very not nice but that’s just my analysis and what do I know. nothing that’s right these are random words

Did a little Xmas baking and let me tell you my loaf turned out just perfect

I would prefer to freeze to death rather than shelter in the former provincial psychiatric institution where hundreds of people were locked up, restrained, medicated, experimented on, assaulted, dehumanized and forgotten — “let’s do that again,” and here’s Brad West opening the door

“But to be a viable business, rental projects should also turn a profit for landlords and shareholders, which typically ranges between five and 10 per cent…” extortion is not a “business“ • • This by @1alexhemingway.bsky.social can be read together, and acted on bcpolicy.ca/2025/12/16/h...

asking this question of elected officials at every opportunity is how we hold them accountable #cdnpoli

Deloitte’s “blunder” was getting caught this is the exact opposite of responsible government

This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that? The 25 richest families are collectively $358.7 billion richer than a year ago, with a combined fortune totaling $2.9 trillion.

A NEW BC Supreme Court judgment just dropped granting the petition of Health Authority to prevent a husband who is a strong pro MAiD advocate from killing his wife - a plan he called 'dignicide.' www.bccourts.ca/jdb-txt/sc/2...

York University continues its anti-Palestine bigotry. an artist was censored, and a curator fired. the reason is unconfirmed, but hard not to see the parallels between Jenifer Papararo being fired and what happened with Wanda Nanibush at the AGO.
