Canada needs a National School Food program.
How can kids be expected to learn when they’re hungry?
Last week Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives – whose campaign manager is a Loblaw Lobbyist – voted NO to our motion to ensure no kid goes to school hungry.
#HolocaustMemorialDay takes place on January 27, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. Today we join together to commemorate those murdered in the Holocaust, as well as victims of other genocides.

The BCGEU and our partners in the labour movement will continue to fight to achieve equitable compensation and conditions for all workers in the supportive housing sector.

The efforts of our members in AWRS have forced government to commit to wage improvements for more than 40 other unionized supportive housing agencies under the CSS agreement. This is an overdue initial step towards addressing chronic structural inequities across the sector. 4/5
...Raincity, Lookout and Portland Hotel Society. We will stand in solidarity with our members at Atira as they continue their fight for equitable compensation and conditions. We are committed to achieving true equity for workers across the supportive housing sector.

This decision only further marginalizes the women and gender-diverse workers at Atira.
We believe the women and gender-diverse workers at Atira deserve the same compensation and protections as their counterparts in BC's other major supportive housing agencies...

The BCGEU is deeply disappointed with government’s decision to put Atira Women’s Resource Society (ARWS) workers into the Community Social Services (CSS) collective agreement instead of with their RainCity, Lookout and PHS peers in the Community Health Agreement.

Donald Trump loves to call Chris Christie a “fat pig.”
He calls just about everyone he doesn’t like “not smart”, “stupid” or “dumb.”
He says Joe Biden “hates God.”
He calls women ugly, uses physical appearance to mock and insult, calls the news “fake” and “phony”, calls our military leaders “weak”, calls Democrats “unpatriotic”, he calls his foes “totally overrated”, and he’s called Hillary Clinton a “traitor” who is “unhinged, “unbalanced”, “unstable”, “dangerous” and “pathological”, and he also said of her: “The legacy of Hillary Clinton: death, destruction, chaos and weakness. She's weak. She's a weak person. I know her. She's a weak person."
And all of it — is 100% projection.
He’s not exactly svelte to put it kindly, he cheated on his SATs, can’t spell, doesn’t know history or geography, or that you shouldn’t look at an eclipse with the naked eye, he doesn’t attend church but instead every Sunday worships at Our Lady of the Perpetual Mulligan, he paints himself orange to look “tan”, wears lifts in his shoes to look “taller” and has a 15-step combover to hide the fact that he’s essentially bald, he dodged the draft five times, has been found to be an egregious business fraud who totally overrated his own worth, he’s been charged with stealing our national security information & sharing it with others, and with attempting to thwart democracy itself, he’s unhinged, unbalanced, unstable, dangerous and pathological and his legacy in particular as it pertains to his woeful mishandling of a pandemic and the violent attack he incited on our Capitol, will be death, destruction, chaos & weakness.
He’s a weak person. We know him. He is a weak person.
And no matter how hard he tries to drown out the voices playing on a loop in his own narcissistic, sociopathic subconscious by calling others what he knows deep down to be true about himself, it isn’t working. We see him.
Believe me.
Guns are a uniquely American problem.
The rest of the world has mental health issues.
The rest of the world has ideological & philosophical division.
They have social media, pot, porn, cellphones & video games.
What they don’t have — is more guns than people, they don’t have more than 500 mass shootings in less than a year, they don’t have a populace paralyzed with fear that their child will be next.
At least, not until they arrive here.
