Flying symbols of hate. Harassing workers. Making it unsafe for kids to go to school. This is wrong. I understand — people are frustrated with the pandemic. But, the way through this is to get vaccinated and follow public health advice. It’s time for the convoy to go home.

To the participants of the #ConvoyForFreedom2022 this is what it actually looks like when Canada takes away your freedom. #cdnpoli #bcpoli #vanpoli #CanadaTruckers #CanadianTruckers #TruckerConvoy2022 #Canada #GetVaccinatedNow

How many more variants will it take until wealthy countries learn to share and pharma put people before profits? Everyone, everywhere must have the chance to get fully vaccinated in 2022. #100DayCountdown ⏰

The procession in #Whitehorse #Yukon has thousands of people. All are silent except for the drummers.

It was genocide and it is ongoing For the #215children we lost, survivors of residential schools and the future of Indigenous children PM Trudeau must go beyond words He must immediately end all legal actions against Indigenous children and survivors fighting for their rights

It should not be lost on anyone that the protests and violence taking place in Nova Scotia (Yarmouth County) and BC (Wet'suwet'en) are BOTH directly tied to Supreme Court cases won by First Nations in 1990s (Marshall and Delgamuukw), but which Canada has done nothing about. /1

If Canada had negotiated a fair resolution of the Indigenous rights raised in those cases, we would not see these disturbances today. We need to understand that Canada's indifference and bad faith towards Indigenous rights is a matter of policy, from 1867 to the present. /2

Sipekne’katik First Nation has seven licenses. Each license has 50 traps, totaling 350 traps. Currently only 250 traps are being used. The commercial fishery in the same zone allows for up to 390,000 traps. View our ongoing coverage: aptnnews.ca/topic/fishing-ri…

Compare the approach that the RCMP have taken toward peaceful #Secwepemc protestors here in BC against the lack of response to racist violence against #MikMaq people by white men in Nova Scotia... This racism is not even systemic. It is systematic. cbc.ca/news/canada/british-c…

What's happening to the Mi'kmaq people is no accident. It is an indictment of successive Liberal & Conservative govts. Canadian's across the country are fed up. They are rising up in solidarity & I stand with them for #MikmaqRights.

"In that moment I got angry. But I'm sad now. Because why can't we act? Why can't we do something to save people's lives? We can do something, and why would someone say no to that?" @theJagmeetSingh says of calling a Bloc MP racist, choking back tears. bit.ly/3fCKwxh

Our staff has started working remotely to do our part to slow the spread of #covid19. We recognize another thing we can do is continue offering content that nourishes and accompanies, so we collected podcasts and poetry that speak to this moment. onbeing.org/blog/a-listening…

Let's not let hoarding be the defining act of humanity during this crisis. Can those of us lucky enough to be healthy post something every day we will do to make the world better and help those at greatest risk? #COVIDKINDNESS
