There’s a go fund me page for Erixon, a father of three who was murdered by the Hamilton police.

If you have the means, please donate to support this family.

Some immediate steps I believe that all trans people should take:

- Get your passport. Today. It takes time to come in and this will likely be shut down under Trump.

- Update every ID your state allows you to.

- Make sure you have a supply of medication in case of disruption

1. According to a heartbreaking study just published in Nature, anti-transgender laws, including healthcare bans, have increased suicide attempts by up to 72% in states passing such legislation.

The study is the first of its kind.

Rules shouldn't change in the middle of the game - but they just did for international students. We have until Nov 1st to reverse the changes.

PM @JustinTrudeau Immigration Minister @MarcMillerVM: Don't change rules, ensure fairness for all!

Why is @fordnation funding the expropriation of prime farmlands in Kitchener Waterloo if farmers don't accept a developer's offer for their properties within 10 days? Why did local politicians have to sign non-disclosure agreements? Is #farmbelt another #greenbelt scandal?

I met @SarahJama_ during my undergraduate studies and I’ve seen her consistency in advocating for human rights for all. Grateful to call her a friend. Humbled to speak yesterday evening at her nomination meeting for her campaign as Hamilton Centre’s first elected independent MPP!

The context is horrifying:
Indigenous Peoples in Canada make up 5% of the total population. Six Indigenous People were killed by RCMP & police within 11 days (Aug 29-Sept 8, 2024)

That would be equivalent to 114 non-Indigenous people in Canada being shot by RCMP & police within 11 days.

Being "able bodied" is temporary, you will age, you will get injured, you will get sick and you will wish you fought more for the system to protect the vulnerable.

I made a small mistake: @DeirdrePike was actually a senior social planner - nor the executive director - of @SPRCHamOnt when the harm to sex workers was done via her 14- page report. #HamOnt
