The Canadian Energy Regulator approved a proposed reroute requested by TMX. 🤬 This goes directly against the will of the Stk’emlúpsemc te Secwépemc Nation.
The Trudeau government buying, funding and supporting this pipeline is unjustifiable and such an outrage. Key facts: ⬇️
if you own a $2m home, a “punishing” 9% property tax increase would be $485/year.
if you rent an average 1-bedroom for $2,800, the 2% allowable rent for 2023 increase is $672/year.
I've got a question, how did Toronto/Ottawa/Canada organize this transitional period for Ukrainian refugees? Why are our Black/African refugees predominantly on our sidewalks? The question of anti blackness for this crisis shouldn't happen after white refugees received better.

When Black women and trans women are sounding the alarms, LISTEN!
We are the front line, the scouts, the canaries in the coal mine.
We see the danger coming and we're warning y'all about who the enemy is and how to fight them.
