@HGHobbs @VanIslandHealth If Cool Aid would open their doors to the public- we could make this work! Having our main outreach clinic shut it’s doors in December to new clients has impacted us greatly :( we could do so much more!

Bylaw asking campers at Beacon to relocate to Topaz under threat of forced eviction from Beacon even after we have had NO ISSUES here and had 0 incidents to date.....why aren't we in the news ? clearly we can co exsist and live orderly lives in the community. Zero Impact not bad.
#COVID19 is giving society a small glimpse into what marginalized populations face daily. Uncertainty, fear, isolation, depression. Let's use this pandemic to bring us all together & fight to change these social issues! #WeAreInThisTogether#HousingCrisis#EndPoverty#bcpoli
@aimollison@burek75@CityOfVictoria We should talk. I have 3 evictions that I’m dealing with solo - people who you know actually - let me know if you have time for some advocacy miss Molli
A year ago, BC's now-beloved Dr Henry called for drug decriminalization. The government snubbed her plan immediately. Nobody painted a mural. The press conference was not carried live. There were no Fluevogs. It's time for her to remind them again. https://t.co/aItrpLF3Ar
@HGHobbs @LaceyMesley@TraceyDayDNP@BCCSU@AVIVanIsle@BerniePauly @mlgagnon_XVII Even if we don’t decriminalize bc that’s too ‘radical,’ Canada loves to regulate. Let’s regulate it, out out guidelines and removed barriers to make it safer for all. We’ve lost too many family members. We’re losing our street soldiers that teach the young ones respect ✊
@LaceyMesley@TraceyDayDNP@BCCSU@AVIVanIsle@BerniePauly @mlgagnon_XVII @HGHobbs Reach out if you need some advocacy Lacey, there are guidelines you can use to help ppl get and stay on what they need. We are fortunate to live here, where we have a good handful of doctors and more allies than not
When you spend your time passionately advocating for PWUD with little, slow or no changes it can leave you feeling like a failure. But remember, it's not you who is failing ; it's the system keep fighting & protect our most vulnerable people in this world. #advocateappreciation
Vancouver #homeless count 2,223. There are 23,000 hotel rooms in metro Vancouver. It is unacceptable that our most vulnerable are living in Oppenheimer park #dtes. @GovCanHealth needs to implement a National housing strategy & fund Provinces to house people who are homeless!
