Lawyer Tom Isaac accuses the BC gov’t of “misleading” people on adhering to UNDRIP:
“It should be illegal for our government to give any more platitudes on the Indigenous rights issue … and not do a thing to improve the lives of Indigenous Canadians on the ground.”
@valdombre We moved from West Vancouver after living there for 22 years because the traffic got so bad that you couldn’t drive anywhere. I haven’t heard any talk about addressing the serious North Shore gridlock.
Former Parliamentary Budget Officer Jason Jacques revealed the Interim Federal Health Program will cost Canadians more than $1.5 billion a year by 2030.
The Health Committee then ordered a further investigation into the program and Jason Jacques committed to delivering it.
Shortly after, the Liberals refused to renew his contract and ousted him as PBO.
Now the PBO office is suddenly offering a watered-down version covering only 3 of the 11 items the committee ordered.
To make matters worse, they appear to be prioritizing Liberal policies that haven't even taken effect yet.
Is this what the PBO now looks like under Liberal pressure?
An out-of-control program with a $1.5 billion annual price tag deserves full scrutiny, not a watered-down analysis designed to protect the government.
@kim_tyers Vancouver and Victoria have had a seasonal 2 day watering schedule for years. Watering of the lawn is limited to 2 days per week and veggie gardens can be watered every day during the summer.
I found these photos on my phone, photos from the days I was playing football in Iran.
Look at our faces. Look at our styles. Look at the forced hijab the regime made us wear while controlling every part of our lives.
When I saw them again, my hands started shaking.
No athlete should have to play under oppression. No woman should have to hide her identity to exist.
Today I fight for the new generation,
for girls who deserve freedom, dignity, and equality.
For athletes who deserve to play in a healthy, free environment.
Iran’s future generation deserves better. And we will not stop until they have it.
Please don’t stop talking about the Iranian women’s national soccer team.
They need us. They need our voices. They need our support.
Please don’t forget the athletes who are in prison simply for standing for freedom and dignity. ✌🏻💔

@dockevinmcleod If a B.C. taxpayer who does not have access to a GP and has not had access for many years, out of desperation pays to see a doctor, their testing should be paid for from their taxes.
I've written something with four of Canada's leading economists. We think it's important.
The federal government has subverted Canada's world-renowned skills based immigration system. It's time to bring it back.
Take some to read and distribute.

“Canada has just fallen to 27th place in the global Quality of Life Index, dropping from ninth a decade ago. It’s the largest decline among the world’s top thirty countries, and though it should shock us, I doubt it does.”
