Our campaign house is a mess on E-2.
...we called, texted, mailed, DM'd hundreds and hundreds of people...fed volunteers, took care of kids and kept down jobs.

Xtra special thanks to The Volunteer Who Did The Dishes last night.

So grateful to have the support of Robert Ford, whose inspiring local leadership advocating on school policy is getting things done.

I will prioritize upholding our climate responsibilities and living up to commitments I make to constituents.

#sophiegregoiretrudeau at #WD2019 “I was asked by a journalist when I became a woman, I said shhhhhh, I can’t tell you” then she paused for laughter. #transphobia is never funny. Shameful words from her.

And that's a wrap! Thank you #uniforpride activists for an amazing weekend. Let's take what we have learned from the Pride Conference back to our locals and build a stronger, inclusive and equitable union. #canqueer #canlab

Happy #MayDay to all who fight for real increases to worker rights and power. The fight started over the 8 hour day yet we still fight today for reduced hours and fair compensation. Let’s all recommit to the struggle this year like never before. #canlab #bcpoli #canpoli #bclab

I am proud to have worked with @boborrunifor for 30 years and Unifor members will miss him. Congratulations on your retirement brother!

@JerryPDias Unfortunately this has become far too common in Victoria and it’s time that @BCTransit steps up and does the right thing to protect their workers.

[Unifor Together @UniforTogether]

Assaults on workers who serve the public are far too common and perpetrators should face the full force of the law. Wishing this driver a speedy recovery. #canlab https://t.co/ZtjB1TM4YA

I've had a chance to digest the election results elsewhere in the region, and realized that there will be *16* new mayors in Metro Vancouver's 21 municipalities — 13 didn't run again, and three incumbents were defeated. Huge implications for @TransLink and @MetroVancouver.

WATCH the moment when activists learn that 9 days of 24 hour picketing and incredible solidarity paid off in Gander:

https://t.co/Zug4oKGlwa. Thank you for being intersectional feminists @MarchOnVan !

[March On Vancouver @MarchOnVan]

To those people spreading transphobia off the Jan2018 march.

The was a march for all. This group is called March On for reasons we have explained over and over due to US takeover of WMC.

This is 100% volunteer. Want something better? Do it yourself or politely f-k off.
