Big day for @YourMapleRidge today with $1.05 Billion investment partnership announcement with Federal Government and E-One Moli to build Canada’s biggest commercial lithium-ion battery plant. 450 well-paying jobs, clean energy technology and in our back yard!

@stuartlosaltos @katiederosayyj @KarinLitzcke There is no horrible social movement trying to indoctrinate others —only caring people who can’t stand seeing good people suffer when they don’t fit into someone else’s definitions of gender.

It’s devastating to live in a world that deems you to be horrible. You feel alone.

@stuartlosaltos @katiederosayyj @KarinLitzcke Don Quixote was a self-declared champion of chivalry, but his was deluded. His villains were just everyday people to whom his imagination ascribed treachery. He tilted with windmills, imagining them to be monsters, only to be mercilessly battered by their turning blades.

Definitely would not happen at my school, I’m proud to say. My amazingly inclusive colleagues.

Hey, all schools in BC, did you know that it violates the right of the disabled student if you plan a field trip that excludes them from participating?

All go or none go. Full stop. And no, the parent cannot attend.

Every damn year. Just stop. #bced @BCPVPA @BCSTA_President

Used the "book your time at security" feature at YVR airport for the first time. At 6:45 am on a Monday - presumably a busy time- it was 12 minutes from start (entering security area) to finish. Don't know how that compares to regular line, though I could see it was quite a bit longer.

@keithbaldrey He has certainly put his forces on notice.

@IrisDorbian @nytimes It’s discussed in the article. The lab leak theory is still in play. Occam’s razor. There’s a lab in Wuhan studying coronavirus. There’s a coronavirus outbreak originating in Wuhan.

@toddstonebc @BCLegislature @Dave_Eby Interesting narrative you’re spinning. Corporate radio sure pounced on it. @VaughnPalmer

@danmanganmusic I was recently at an event whose dress code was “fabulous”. Weirdly, that made it easier. Be your fabulous self, I say!

The B.C. Government should reboot passenger rail on Vancouver Island via the old and unused E&N railway.

Here's some reasons why:

[🧵 1/5]

[Restore Island Rail @WarrenSkaalrud]

The "E&N" or Esquimalt to Nanaimo railway is the Vancouver Island Rail Corridor built in 1886. It's time to restore the line as the clock runs out in only 40 days.

@HLOVEMAN @Garossino Proportionally, far more unvaccinated people ended up dead or in icu’s than vaccinated people. I guess the panel of experts was operating on that kind of information. I don’t think those numbers were fabricated. Why would they be?
