Almost like shutting down safe consumption sites and funneling money away from harm reduction and into abstinence grifting makes things less safe and increases harms. This is consistent with decades of data and was completely predictable.

Documents Show BC Knew Safe-Supply Diversion Was Negligible - Filter Even as British Columbia’s Ministry of Health was caving to right-wing panic over β€œdiversion” of safe supply drugs, its public ...

β€œRather than publicize the evidence early in 2025 to correct loud claims of safe supply diversion flooding communities, the BC government opted to sit on the information and retreat from safe supply as a policy.”

'I don't know anything about that so I have nothing to say' is more than fine to say. I know that we are in an era where everyone is expected by someone to comment on something but you can just not.

Solidarity with PSAC-AFPC members fighting back against Carney’s callous cuts.

We're in a moment of economic emergency: austerity is the worst possible response. We shouldn't be attacking good jobs and public services, we should be expanding them to protect Canadians from the shocks still to come.

And Parliament must pass @jennykwan.bsky.social's bill to close the U.S. arms export loophole – so that no Canadian armoured vehicles, weapons, or equipment end up in the hands of ICE to brutalize people.

This is classic scapegoating β€” blaming refugees for a healthcare crisis caused by decades of underfunding and privatization.


These charges are cruel and punitive. We won’t fix a broken system by putting up new barriers for people who are already struggling.

The Minister of AI having an "ongoing engagement" with the government of Israel on technology and AI is deeply concerning. No, it’s just plain wrong. It makes Canada vulnerable to international legal consequences, and it takes Canada far down the wrong path.

First Nations should be worried! Trump regime is all over this Alberta separation movement! We call them out - especially the snide Scott Bessent on tonight’s OShow Canada’s Pro Democracy Podcast with @lukaszukab.bsky.social

2/ According to the Financial Times, US State Department officials have secretly met with leaders of the far-right Alberta Prosperity Project three times since April 2025, with another meeting scheduled for February 2026. The APP is regarded in Canada as a fringe movement.

Wow. Per @priscialva, DHS has suspended Gregory Bovino’s access to his social media accounts effective immediately. He spent yesterday responding to people who were criticizing him and raising questions about his unverified claims about Pretti.

So did American forces capture him in mexico? This use of AI to hide the truth in high profile arrests and kidnapping of world leaders is dangerous

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

Will @cityofvancouver.bsky.social activate the Fairview Warming Centre at @OddVancouver Hall, 1443 W 8th, Friday, Jan. 23?

Enviroment Canada forecasts #Vancouver low Friday of -3Β°C ("Wind chill -9").

CoV website says warming centres activate "when temp drops below -4Β°C or it feels like -4Β°C."

I have looked more into this. Call centres are way too far from Comox valley. Not sure I see a lot of EMR jobs here but perhaps looking in the wrong place. LPN program here is like a 3 year wait list
