Today, our international neighbours @WO_Fire from #SouthAfrica arrived at #YEG, sharing their positive energy through song and dance. These highly trained firefighters have travelled a long way to assist with suppressing the wildfires in #Alberta. It is an honour to witness our global community answering the call for help, and we are deeply grateful. #Mzanzi1

Hey Freedom Fucks….

Take a look at the Middle East today and remind us again how bad you have it in Canada….

So let me get this straight. California just experienced a hurricane and an earthquake at the same time?

Sure seems like the Earth is trying to tell us something.

I’m not really sure what to say, Renee

BC New Democratic Party = BCNDP

BC United Party = BCUP

I have dedicated a lot of my life to supporting survivors & addressing GBV - this attack on me is NONSENSE.

If you want to talk about the REAL issues on gender equity, count me in.

My husband went to the dr with 2/10 occasional pain in his lower back. He left w/a full suite of tests & a same day X-ray at another clinic for something he was assured “didn’t sound serious”. He didn’t have to ask for a single test.

I presented w/pains that used to buckle me over and it took me 1.5 years and tons of begging for tests and scans before I’d eventually be diagnosed with stage IV cancer.

This is a problem.

Very grateful he‘s receiving such a thorough work up but everyone deserves this level of care.

Deathbed Regret: Allowing my quest for more to distract me from the beauty of enough.

Ambitious people will chase whatever more is on the horizon.

But true wealth is found not in attaining more, but in discovering your version of enough.

I will always be grounded by my enough.

Regardless of political views, I think it’s safe to say we can all agree that Hockey Canada fucked up royally and deserves every ounce of anger and hate it is receiving.

I read the Dane Cook story today. Then I saw how many dudebros are happy for him. A man marrying someone young enough to be his kid who he groomed from her teens. If Dane grooming a teen is okay with you, you are part of the problem.

It is really (really) strange that Canada's "universal" healthcare system doesn't think that our eyes, teeth or the medications we need to stay healthy...are deserving of "universal" healthcare coverage.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Because refugees are human beings. Because no human should be illegal. Because the only difference between us & a refugee is luck...Support refugees. Welcome refugees. Stand with refugees. And stop the wars that make refugees. 🙏🏾
