Yesterday I wrote that disabled people are canaries in the coal mine for pandemics & climate change.

Today legendary director David Lynch has died after spending the last year in isolation trying to avoid Covid AND being evacuated from his home due to LA wildfires. /1

We should all support Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation (SLCN) in their effort to stop DANIELLE SMITH Alberta Premier, from giving KEVIN O’LEARY land, or other support for an AI Data Centre on SLCN Treaty #8 lands & waters without seeking their free, prior, informed, consent!

We are responding to the humanitarian crisis by helping this child get the health care they need.
Throughout Manitoba's history, we have welcomed those fleeing violence to the beautiful province we are lucky to call home.
There will always be people around the world willing to help people who need it, and those are Manitobans.

Humbled to share this video of our Land-based healing camp and the work of so many to bring it to where it is today. This includes the work of Rassi Nashalik + Be'sha Blondin as well as hardworking staff. Thanks to @StoriesofH_S for inviting me to be a part of this project.

#IndigenousVeteransDay honours the thousands of Indigenous soldiers who served in various conflicts, despite facing systemic discrimination both during and after their service. It is a time to recognize their bravery and contributions to Canada’s military.

This is what Land Back actually looks like. With everything going on in the world right now it's amazing to see a victory like this!!!

If this is any indication of what’s to come from the federal conservatives, Canada will lose ground on so many environmental and societal concerns.

[Andrea Norris @NorrisAndrea]

This kind of disgusting rhetoric from a medical doctor (!) is exactly what Indigenous scientists face, regularly. Indigenous scholars are constantly trying to educate people while also advancing Indigenous solutions to solve problems created by colonialism/white supremacy.

[APTN News @APTNNews]

A BC Conservative candidate who made derogatory comments about Indigenous Peoples on election night more than a week ago is now facing calls to be removed from the party.

Here's what was said, along with the reaction that followed.

[CIHR @CIHR_IRSC]

Big news for applicants and reviewers! CIHR, @NSERC_CRSNG, and @SSHRC_CRSH will be transitioning away from the CCV to a new narrative-style CV for funding opportunities.

The response to this poem across all platforms has blown me away.

Thank you to everyone for sharing and for your kind words. The fact it has resonated with so many people is incredibly moving.

So much love ❤️❤️❤️

@bcndp candidate Francyne Joe needs our support! She is the 1st Nlaka'pamux woman to ever run in the Fraser-Nicola riding, 2nd largest in the province. @Dave_Eby

In a new BirdNote podcast, some of the 124 authors of Soares et al. (2023) reflect on systems of oppression operating in ornithology, peoples' relationships to birds, and our visions for the future. @leticiasaurus @ruie680506 @OAcevedoCharry @OrnithoAle https://t.co/utRcakXDV4

“The work of reconciliation — the work that belongs to everyone — is building a future that respects Indigenous people and the lands we all share”: reflections from @michellecyca on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation #NDTR https://t.co/7DevgpPGZf

[IndigiNews @IndigiNewsMedia]

The survivor whose story sparked Orange Shirt Day — and the “Every Child Matters” movement — says she's worried the cause is being forgotten.

“It needs to be respected — I need to be respected — and I don’t feel I have that.”
