We have added paramedics in 7 more ambulances & 2 supervisor vehicles to help address call volumes after many staff reached out and offered to come in.

[BC Emergency Health Services @BC_EHS]

As we respond to the incident at E. 41st Ave & Fraser we see some delays in our lower mainland response for lower acuity calls. If you aren’t sure if you need paramedics tonight, please call 811. We appreciate your patience as we respond to those who need help the most first.

Last Saturday, at the park I once (miserably) ran around in 7th grade PE, I stood on a picnic table to stoke the patriotic spirit of 3,000 of my neighbors — and it was a thrill I’ll never forget. I had just flown home the night before from Istanbul, where a grassroots upwelling of concerned citizens is standing up to autocracy, making our local gathering feel even more poignant.

I thought you might enjoy a few highlights from the speech I wrote on the plane flying home. Please join me in spirit — and if you have any great photos or reflections from your own local #HandsOff rally, I’d love to see them!

@cspotweet The CBC has been grossly underfunded for more than a decade and the result has been a weakened operation open to fair criticism. We deserve better, we deserve a service (especially in the digital realm) that is properly funded that strengthens our richly diverse country.

@amuse I haven’t heard of any violence or vandalism related to these particular protests can you elaborate.
