Grateful to be living on lands of Lekwungen people as an uninvited resident.

So proud of all the hard work of the Housing Justice Project on this report! 💖✨

@sarahpvictoria I was very disappointed to see there is actually a sign saying that you're supposed to be a 'customer' of the Bay Centre if you're sitting in the food court. I don't know that anyone would challenge me but I can guess that some people might get challenged.

@artgalleryvic I'm guessing you haven't reopened - can you confirm (had hoped to visit tonight but guessing that's not in the cards).

Since 2016, 13,000 people have been killed by the toxic drug supply in British Columbia.

@DULFBC took the steps needed to save lives - ensuring that drug users had access to a reliable safe supply.

This Friday at 12:30. Main & Hastings. March to Defend DULF.

In Canada, more than 20 people a day are dying overdoses (6 a
Day in BC). Loss and grief impacting generations of families and friends. @dulf was open regarding their program & safety measures taking action to save lives in the midst of a deadly emergency. Please
Read

@dulf evaluation was supported by credible, award winning and peer reviewed scientists who are experts in the field. This is evidence not anecdote.

.@tferriss - I asked your AI about intermittent fasting and learned you are married 😀 "In his own experimentation with IF, he and his wife found it to be a practical way to improve health. " #timai

NSUN thanks Victoria’s unhoused for sharing their traumatic experiences of living without #housing in #yyj with @HousingLogement
Many described violations of basic #HumanRights @SeanFraserMP

Funding IS NOT our Achilles heel. The beauty of what we have done is that ideas do not rely on funding. Chop down DULF and another will reappear. We are motivated by love, and cannot be stopped.

@ColinMcT @ejamesYYJ Anecdotally I can say I routinely encounter - usually greeting me with a cheery hello - about half a dozen men who I am 99% sure are Spanish speakers getting off the bus right near the construction site near my house (working on the Redfern).

@Adamvanderzwan - recently you interviewed Heather Murphy of NSUN (on January 12th I believe) about getting 24/7 bathroom access on Pandora - do you have a link to the interview? Please share if you do. Thanks.

Victoria Bylaw doesn’t let a couple of inches of snow slow them down!

It’s 7AM. Unhoused do their daily shuffle… to where?
Shout out to James Bay United for opening an emergency shelter last night! ♥️👏 We need #EWP

@ubcHART @HomesForLiving_ @WNHHNetwork @HousingRightsCA @CHRA_ACHRU @CHEC_CCRL What I am particularly interested in is the list of potential building spots for housing to address these dire needs - you did this in Kelowna, something similar coming for #YYJ?

@everywhereist I know I'm getting older (>60) and maybe my hearing is going but I have CC on all the time. A pet peeve is shows where music soundtrack drowns out dialogue.

On The Island with @GregorCraigie - Sep. 21, 2022:
