John Rustad on CBC right now saying climate change is not a crisis, not an existential crisis, and we simply need to adapt to it. Do not want to see what his vision of "adapting" is. Yikes. #bcpoli

There's nothing centrist about any party that explicitly denies that climate change is a serious problem. That's a far-right, fringe position to take. The centrist position is to acknowledge the seriousness of the climate crisis then utterly fail to act accordingly. #bcpoli

Whether it's B.C. or the United States, and whether it's Haitian migrants, drug users, unhoused people, or any other marginalized group — fascism grows wherever and whenever lies, bullying, & vicious scapegoating go unchallenged. #bcpoli #uspoli #StopTheFarRight

What's even more fucked up is that I had to resuscitate someone on my way home from work on Friday. Narcan didn't work because benzos. Had to do CPR.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: Involuntary drug treatment can cause great harm – even death – and does not save lives. Forced treatment of people who use drugs cannot be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society. 1/ cbc.ca/news/canada/br…
