I just wrote my MLA to demand bolder drug policy changes. Immediate action is needed to stop toxic drug overdoses & save lives. Will you do the same in time for International Overdose Awareness Day? #endoverdose #bcpoli @firstuniteddtes

MAGA: WE WANT FREEDOM!
Me: OK. I’m gonna walk downtown naked, carrying a Pride flag, an abortion rights sign, and smoking a joint.
MAGA: No, not like that…
Please @GavinNewsom meet with farm workers on THEIR day, Cesar Chavez Day 3/31. You and we all literally cannot live without them. Please hear about their significant concerns. @UFWupdates
🚨OK JORTSDOM: I need ALL of you to step up for farm workers. On Cesar Chavez Day (3/31) United Farm Workers asked CA Governor Newsom to meet with them… and HE SAID NO.
They have a really important message, so we have to help them be heard. They feed us!

Love this! I also saw a Vancouver counter protester holding a sign that said “honk for vaccines“ LOL #FluTruxKlanGoHome
My best moment slowing cars and SUVs in the convoy going down Grandview this morning was when I got someone to stop honking when I held up my "honk for black history month" sign and gave them a thumbs up. But really, it is sad to see the "convoy" and great to see the resistance.

Yesterday, 301,368 Canadians got a vaxx dose, and 400 “trucks” drove in the #FluTruxKlan.
The vaccinated are the majority in this country by an enormous margin.
Never forget that. – at Calgary, Alberta
Totally agree! (But mmmm also, I do like the copy-cat apps where I can play as much as I want….. but totally agree) #wordle
And a woman VP elect in the White House too
Congrats @jjhorgan+@bcndp for historic victory. NDP elected 49 % women. Watch Harwinder Sandhu @harwinderndp20 and Pam Alexis @Pam_Alexis_ in final count. Both sooooo close.Their wins could make a second time ever majority female caucus (@JennyKwanBC and I were the first 🤣👭👯♂️)
Meanwhile, here in B.C. we yawned our way thru 2 weeks waiting for the final election count..... funny, I don’t hear any horns honking, no sloth memes, nada #bcpoli #canpoli
Final count update: three additional electoral districts have now completed final count. See elections.bc.ca/docs/report-… This report will be updated throughout the day as final count progresses. #bcpoli

P.S. That last guy was a REAL asshole eh?... – at Toronto, Ontario
Congratulations, @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. Our two countries are close friends, partners, and allies. We share a relationship that’s unique on the world stage. I’m really looking forward to working together and building on that with you both.
Bravo @MPJulian for starting things off. Indeed, the nightmare is finally over.
I was happy this morning to be the 1st in the HOC to congratulate @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris as clearly they’ll become President-elect and Vice President-elect of the US. This marks the end of the nightmare of the Trump’s Presidency. Let’s work together to bring peace & justice!
AaaaaaaMAZing!!! #canpoli

Indeed! And why a 75 sq/m classroom w/ 30 seventeen-year-olds + 2 adults (teacher & EA) NOT considered an indoor public space? #bced #MaskUp #bcpoli @jjhorgan @Rob_Fleming @adriandix
I’m wondering why other provincial Public Health Officers in Canada have mandated mask wearing in schools!
.@cafreeland implement a #WealthTax! The rich are getting richer. They should contribute to a green #JustRecovery act.gp/33XEK6f @greenpeaceCA

I mean, settler governments using the police and military to suppress Indigenous resistance to colonization and facilitate capitalist accumulation is really just the history of Canada - as I made clear earlier this year: canadiandimension.com/articl…
