Converting oil dependency into energy independence should be the top goal in NL. We are giving millions of dollars in subsidies to entertain oil companies, when we could be spending it to advance our ocean economy, our wind economy, and hydrogen economy responsibly.

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

Climate action and climate chaos mitigation should be at the top of the list for our minister of environment and climate change @LisaVDempster and NL should still be looking at ways to move away from big oil because

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

…by failing to point out the root causes of rising climate temperatures, like big oil extraction, we are failing to truly address the solution. There has been at least 3 community events that discussed a just transition this spring/summer that our minister did NOT to attend.

@itstaranova A collective union of BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ entertainers/artists would be astonishing and exactly what this place needs! 💖 know your worth, ✊🏽

@booksandtea123 And this girl worked for an insurance company weirdly enough. Talk about risk analysis 🤦🏽‍♀️

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

@booksandtea123 Your optimism is amazing Sarah. In 2018 I tried to stop a girl from sneaking to drive at a bar I worked at. She was pass out drunk. I ran out and banged on the window only for her to pull off and almost run me over and drive away. This girl was 2 years older than me. I was 24 :(

@vampirismmm F*ck. I’m so sorry Randi. Can @MUNSU35 or someone print off more? I’ll help you disperse/put them back up ❤️

A Black girl was almost publicly lynched in a small town in NL. A Facebook post won’t fix racism or protect our girls. It’s a slap in the face.

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

Seeing everyone's initial concern for the racist incident that happened to a young girl in Lewisporte die down once again, is not surprising-yet, still I'm sad that…

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

… and still I see random posts that say
"eV3rY OnE iS EqUAl" when in reality we as a Black community know that's not true for many reasons.

…and unliveable environmental conditions that inevitably destroy the homes that are left. Nothing was accomplished today, except for validating that the PC and Liberal parties cannot get over themselves long enough to come to a meaningful resolution.

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

I was sadly surprised to see a large group of MHA’s, who acknowledged climate justice activists from @fffstjohns in September, act so childish and show zero regard for meaningful policy revisions to address climate change and renewable industry development.

[Kassie K.D.D (she/her/elle) @kdsocanth]

This leaves us in a scare situation and puts pressure on our pockets and on our environment. As our politicians sit there and argue among each other about who is the best, and who did what first, we suffer increasing homelessness….
