Maybe the Democrats should have made some effort to get the Epstein files out while Biden was President.

Another reminder; eight Vancouver cops participated in killing Chris Amyotte with so-called "non-lethal" rounds in 2022.

Part of the rise of fascism is allowing police violence to go unpunished. It is happening in Canada as well.

This is very rapey talk.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “Sit back, take a deep breath and let things play out.

“The worst thing countries can do is to escalate against the United States.”

Family of Myles Gray shouldn’t have to ‘rely on charity,’ lawyer says before hearing
As a public inquiry into the beating death of 33-year-old Myles Gray at the hands of Vancouver Police Department Officers more than a decade ago is set to begin Monday, the lawyer representing the man’s family says his loved ones shouldn’t have to rely on pro-bono counsel.

We should be announcing the end of the drug criminalization experiment, which has failed terribly and causes nothing but misery and death in Canada and around the world.
B.C. announces end of drug decriminalization pilot, which won't receive a new federal exemption. Decrim was always, at best, a half-hearted measure by the province that was destined to fail. It was clear from the start that B.C. didn't have harm reduction or treatment infrastructure in place for it.

Cocaine and coca leaf should be completely legal in the same way as caffeine and coffee beans are.

If this was the case, snorting cocaine would be about as popular as snorting caffeine is today.

Prohibition itself causes and worsens all the problems it claims to be solving.

"Access to involuntary care" is an Orwellian euphemism.

Eby knows this is morally and medically wrong-headed, and he's doing it solely for political reasons.
Premier Eby will have announcement tmrw about "strengthening access to involuntary care for young people."

CMHA: "lack of evidence to support effectiveness of involuntary treatment for substance use disorder... evidence suggests it leads to an increased risk of death..."

If they can murder alleged drug smugglers in the ocean, they can murder alleged drug dealers on the street.

It's time to acknowledge that the "drug war" causes and worsens all the harms it claims to prevent.

I am going to repeat this forever: Supply-side crackdowns on drug use are useless, even fatal. They move addicts toward more dangerous substances, they create incentives for dealers to cut other drugs with the more dangerous substances (Xanax cut with whatever) so more casual users die, too.
This is very convincing to me, a guy who got hit on the head and forgot how most fentanyl ingredients were coming from China.
Sen. Roger Marshall defends Hegseth: "Look, we're losing 200 Americans every day to drug poisoning from these drug lords. This is a war. And it's ugly. War is never pretty ... that strike probably saved thousands of American lives."

I'll wrap with Nyx: "I've watched my coworkers die on the ground, friends die who leave behind children. This is gutting my community, killing everyone I know... If you're subject to this over and over again it becomes routine... for 10 years been screaming for help... that's fallen on deaf ears."

Importantly — and this was stressed in friggen heartbreaking testimony — they were doing this while their friends, family and community members were dying in horrific, horrific numbers. The trauma they experienced/continue to experience is very clear. The crisis is continuing, 5 ppl/ day are dying.

Nyx and Kalicum are refuting this and arguing that they did everything they could at the time. Small errors in the study? They were learning how to write academic papers on the fly. Small flaws in communication with Health Canada? They're not lawyers and presented the info the best they could.
