B.C. coal mining company fined for more than 400 violations https://t.co/W3fklYkqqA

Such pathetic fines. How can the fines help pay for the clean up? What incentive is there to run a company with integrity when the fines pale in comparison to the actual cost of doing a job well?

@michellecyca @CBCEarlyEdition It’s disgusting to exploit people who have experienced genocide to make a point that goes completely against Indigenous cultures: gender doesn’t exist in North American Indigenous languages because it wasn’t violently enforced. That’s a white supremacist thing to do.

@CityofVancouver SLS and other environmentally damaging surfactants need to be banned or more heavily regulated. They are in “eco-friendly products too”

@TheBearFX love you show. Too many close up shots in season 2. It’s narcissistic and annoying. Pls stop distracting from the story and have classy shots akin to Season 1.

@jjkyr0 @MichelleObama Is this tweet a sarcastic joke or are you out of the loop about the inequitable world we live in?

Meritocracies do not work for people born without a silver spoon up their butt, or without the extremely lucky opportunities that opened up to the self-determinists out there.

@APTNNews I whole heartedly believe in Ms. Archibald’s leadership, and that this toxic workplace stuff can be worked out professionally. I believe Rosanne Archibald is a strong female leader for the public good, who demonstrates balanced, courageous & appropriate leadership.

Would you support a Native American Genocide Remembrance Day?

Roddie Edmonds was a Master Sergeant in the United States Army. In late 1944, Edmonds was captured in the Battle of the Bulge and held at a German POW camp. In January 1945, the Nazis ordered all Jewish-American POWs to step forward. Edmonds, the highest-ranking noncommissioned officer at the camp, ordered all 1,000 US soldiers to step forward, regardless of their religion.

A German commander demanded that Edmonds identify the Jewish soldiers. Edmonds replied, "We are all Jews here." The commander threatened to shoot him if he did not comply. Edmonds refused, saying, "If you shoot, you'll have to shoot us all." The commander backed down.

Edmonds' actions are credited with saving the lives of 200 Jewish soldiers. In 2015, he was posthumously named Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem and was the first American soldier to receive the honor.

Edmonds' story is a reminder of the courage and compassion of those who stood up to the Nazis during World War II. He is a true hero, and his legacy will never be forgotten.

this is such a direct, tangible example of reconciliation in practice that other Canadian universities could easily implement— here's hoping some of them do.

Aderrien Murry was following his mother’s instructions by calling 911 in response to a domestic disturbance. The officer who responded came to the door with his gun drawn and when Aderrien came around a hallway corner, the cop shot him. https://t.co/Z4tM1fPV3S

This Memorial Day weekend I honor the 200 Powhatan Natives who were given poisoned wine during peace negotiations back in May 1623.

Again, you would’ve known this — had it been taught to you in school.

Brainwashed in a DeSantis kind of way, where anything considered complicated to bigots & racists isn’t taught? Or educated in way where people learn about literacy, numeracy, history, life skills, social justice & inclusion truthfully?

@LakotaMan1 😆“do sane people or insane people like Marjorie Greene Taylor, an avowed militarized Christian white nationalist?” She’s got a disease, born long ago out of Europe. Her voters have it too. In an alternate universe perhaps there is a proper community of hers that could help her.
