Oil and gas companies have made huge profits, while people have faced high fuel costs and the effects of climate change.

We knew this had to change. The system is broken.

That's why we're eliminating the largest fossil fuel subsidy in BC.

They looked us in the eye and said your labour is essential, but your lives are not.

Today we honour and remember Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls

[Evy Kwong @EVYSTADIUM]

A reminder also that Black people are much more likely to be charged with cannabis-related offences than white people. Now that it's legal, most 'influential' lists are filled with white men in cannabis.

A half million people in Oregon evacuate as wildfires rage. Over 3 million acres in California burned. The western sky is red. An 800-mile derecho destroyed towns in Iowa. The Arctic topped 100 degrees.

The Green New Deal has been called "expensive."

Compared to what?

Since 2015, in Canada:

- incarceration of BIPOC has increased
- emissions have increased
- tuition has increased
- the wealth gap has increased
- police brutality has increased
- household debt has increased

We aren’t winning, and pretending we are isn’t helping. Be better.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Stop saying “we can’t afford” Homes for All, Green New Deal or Medicare for All.

If we didn't spend trillions on endless wars and tax breaks for millionaires, we could afford to house our homeless, care for our seniors, and save our planet.

We suffer from greed, not scarcity.

Hey #hamont if you have any dangerous potholes, hateful graffiti, obstructed bike lanes, etc. in your neighborhood, just write Black Lives Matter on the problem and the city will sort it out right away.

[Wade Poziomka @WPoziomka]

Surely the @HamiltonPolice can use their resources for better things than investigating some yellow paint in a peaceful protest. Other municipalities did not treat similar events as "criminal". You might disagree with the paint, but this seems retaliatory. https://t.co/OiVjVGw3RM

Drinking water.. we mostly take for granted when we turn the tap on.. that it is safe to drink

Wouldn't it be nice "IF" this was true for all #FirstNations communities?

@JustinTrudeau could "CHOOSE" to make this happen in post #Covid19 Economic Stimulus

[Black Lives Matter — Toronto @BLM_TO]

3 attendees of a peaceful action were arrested this morning while calling to defund the police. They were not told of their crime.
What did we do? We posted banners. We painted statues. We called to defund the system that targets us.

[Black Lives Matter — Toronto @BLM_TO]

Liars. The police didn't assist anything. We had our own safety team that had to deescalate you. And you still arrested *three people who were just sitting in a van after you tried-- and failed -- to kettle everyone #DefundThePolice #FreeThemNow

[Pariah Carey @DesmondCole]

please amplify this, and please show up if you can. activists with @BLM_TO have been arrested and detained, and police won't confirm where they are
