How much of the country has to burn, how many thousands evacuated and choking on smoke before our country takes the climate emergency seriously and stops expanding oil, gas and LNG projects and starts focusing on keeping people safe? #cdnpoli
None of this is an accident.
Conservatives and Liberals have let rich investors use housing as a get-rich quick scheme.

Vancouver #DTES being cleared right now. Those one the streets are stuffing as much as they can into bins—I’ve seen tents and belongings thrown into garbage trucks—advocates calling it cruel and inhumane. No clashing so far. @GlobalBC
Zoning was designed to inflate home prices and enforce racial & class segregation. Along the way it gave us climate-destroying sprawl.

Students are calling for an administration that listens to and values their students. We are calling for an education system that puts students and faculty before profit. We are calling for PSE that is accessible, equitable and anti-colonial
Restrictive urban planning policies aren’t the problem, professionals who refuse to challenge & change them are.
At some point we have to stop pointing to “the system” as though it isn’t wholly shaped by the actions & inactions of the professionals who work within them.
