Amazing to be in person for this historic moment 🙌

Accessing fresh produce is a challenge in many northern communities, but for one First Nation in northeastern B.C., harnessing geothermal energy may offer a path to better food security. @zoeyunker.bsky.social reports: thenarwhal.ca/west-moberly...
Sixties Scoop adoptees also face this terrifying situation, even as the original peoples of this land. Disgusting.
Shameful of Eby and the BC NDP.

JANE FONDA: “I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN. And I will fight for their right to speak… they arrested the wrong Don. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it.”
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

Why isn't this a bigger story, and in mainstream media across the nation? Oh right...

Having kids with special needs is so difficult and there is no real help. I feel for this parent 💔
We deserve answers. Our parents deserve to know that this was not their failure, but a deliberate campaign to fracture our families. #sixtiesscoop 🥚

The chokey from Matilda.
Disturbing. Good on the parents for speaking up. The school division needs to be held accountable for this.
"In speaking with many of these candidates, it became apparent that their expectations were unrealistic," the report said. "Many thought they would be provided with campaign managers, staff, volunteers and money."
