At 87 years old, Richmond senior Lance Evans says he spends his days at the library and his nights trying to sleep in Tim Hortons because he has nowhere else to go.
His story shines a light on a growing crisis facing elderly Canadians, as rising housing costs, long waitlists, and a shortage of care options leave some seniors struggling to find even the most basic security and shelter.
We’re deeply saddened to hear that Mark Friesen (@MarkFriesen08) has passed away.
For those who had been following his journey, Mark was recently diagnosed with ALS. Throughout it all, he showed remarkable strength and courage.
We will always be grateful for the way he stood strong and fought with determination.
It was an honour to know him, to stand alongside him, and to call him both a member of our community and a friend. His presence and spirit will not be forgotten.
RIP Mark

Make it make sense.
How much will you be paid to fill out the census?
I could never negotiate a fair wage, so they never did get their census.
In Canada we abolished slavery and you can't compel people to provide labour without paying wages.
Stays Canada then sells the data tey get for free.

I’ve run 4 assisted living homes in Phoenix, Arizona for 10 years.
To date, I've helped 8 residents get well enough to move back home independently or with family.
In this thread, I'll share the 8 health protocols we used to achieve this:🧵

SHOCKER OUT OF CANADA:
I think the clerk working for the government of Canada’s new jab “impact” program may have accidentally let slip more than she intended with respect to the previous company that was governing jab injury claims.
After saying “I can’t say what I found” in her review of the prior program, she proceeds tell Dan Hartman to RE-FILE his claim.
That this time, she says, it’s going to be a “real doctor” who reviews his claim.
A “real doctor”? Who exactly was reviewing claims previously?
Recall, Dan’s son, Sean, passed away 33 days after taking his first Pfizer jab.
He was 17.
Dan filed his claim years ago. It was initially rejected. He filed an appeal three years ago, and has heard nothing since.
Now the program has been taken over by the federal government because of things that this clerk “cannot say” were going on under the prior program administration.
And he is being told to start his application from scratch.
This is absurd and horrendous.
Share and put in blast.

Hey all, quick reality check.
One of the sharpest economic voices in this country got wiped off X overnight a few months back.
Hacked. Gone. And the platform? About as responsive as a brick. She's been fighting like hell to get it back.
Her name is Catherine Swift.
If you care about accountability, fiscal sanity, and someone who actually understands how policy hits real people, you already know exactly who she is.
Economist. Relentless advocate for Canadian industry. Longtime defender of taxpayers who are tired of being treated like an ATM by the Liberal Party of Canada.
She doesn’t parrot talking points. She dissects them.
She doesn’t chase headlines. She exposes what’s buried underneath them.
And right now, her voice just got silenced.
So here’s the play.
We don’t wait around for Silicon Valley to maybe care someday.
We rebuild.
We put her right back where she belongs, in front of Canadians who want facts, not fairy tales.
It makes the Liberals VERY uncomfortable when she calls them out. Who isnt down for some of that!?!😂
She reactivated an older account (@WorkingCdns) and needs our help. We need her help too, in this sea of toxic liberal gaslighting.
So...

Let’s make this one of those moments where the wrong people regret pressing the wrong button.
Because when they try to erase voices like hers, the response shouldn’t be silence.
It should be louder.

It’s time for Prime Minister @MarkJCarney to join me and millions of our fellow Canadians in supporting the appointment of Don Cherry to the Order of Canada, one of our nation’s highest honours.
This shouldn’t even be up for debate. Don Cherry is a Canadian icon, a hockey legend and is loved by Albertans. He’s not just one of the greats, his word and opinion about our national sport is still treated as hockey gospel by millions of Canadians.
His contributions to Canadian sport and culture are undeniable, and the work he did to honour our nation’s veterans was an invaluable contribution to our country. He will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Canadians.
So, put the puck in the net and give Grapes the recognition he deserves.

Over years ago I went to bed healthy.
By morning I was quadriplegic.
Canada promised support for vaccine injuries like me after Covid shots.
I’ve received nothing.
Instead I was offered MAID.
Repost if that concerns you.

@nualanichols Im so sick of people giving the Conservatives a pass while putting the PPC under a microscope. Yesterday everyone attacked the PPC for a poorly worded post but then backpeddled on the Conservatives effectively endorsing trans ideology
Over the past year I have observed that most people have some sort of unresolved trauma, myself included. When they attack others out of misunderstanding and fear, they are projecting the darkest version of their self at you.
Inside of them is a child wanting to be seen, heard and loved. Once you become aware of it, angry words no longer hurt because you can sympathize with their pain.
I say this because I have observed it within myself through the trauma my family has suffered. It has surfaced all kinds of unconscious behaviour patterns that the worst part of myself wishes to project on others.
A big part of our healing journey has been to allow those feelings to pass through like a river.
