If you are a healthcare worker looking to come to BC, Canada, I can help put you in touch with the appropriate people in the Vancouver area. We would love to give you a new opportunity in a country that is beautiful but certainly flawed and isn't, and never will be, ruled by an orange egomaniac.

My high school had a "healthy relationships" class. Part of the curriculum focused on LGBTQ+ relationships; my religious parents had me exempted.

As a queer person and abuse survivor, I wonder how my life could have been different if I'd been able to learn with my peers.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant.

This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech.

I particularly like the caption on one of the photos where locals said that nobody touched them and they were reasonable guys.

Ukraine is maintaining their humanity while awaiting a lasting peace.

The Russian Supreme Court has ruled to uphold the 12-year prison sentence of Russian transgender anti-war activist Mark Kislitsyn.

His crime? Sending $10 to an account in Ukraine.

Okay, we are here already.

Shine a light on what is going on between Trump and Putin.

When Russia's mouthpiece is talking about being pleased how the US is aligning with Russian policy, you need to look in those dark corners that scare you and find the truth.

We are not going to be bullied in Canada.

Trump, you clearly do not know this people very well. We are accommodating polite, slow to anger, but we are also principled, stubborn, and ethical.

You can never win against the Canadian people because you stand for nothing.

Me to my family: I just can't rectify it, we knew who he was, and you still thought he was the better option.

My family to me: You *thought* you knew, that's not the same thing. We thought we knew he wasn't. Just because there's nothing we can do doesn't mean we agree. We can't do anything about it
