381.

That’s how many people experiencing homelessness died on Edmonton streets in 2024.

These are more than numbers.

These are people who loved and were loved.

They are so missed.

We need to do so much better.

Premiers of all political stripes across our country are coming together.

Doug Ford, ON: “united we stand, divided we fall”

David Eby, BC: “it’s all hands on deck”

While these leaders are standing up for Canada, Danielle Smith is in Florida standing with Trump.

He orchestrated a coup. It failed.

He was a convicted felon.

He rose to power on a wave of divisive propaganda and hateful anti-immigrant rhetoric.

He promised to make things great again.

He threatened to annex his neighbors.

I'm referring, of course, to Adolf Hitler.

~He's so ignorant & doesn't even know it.

He's a good fit for his upcoming position with the UCP.

I frankly don’t want to hear any city budget discussions that don’t include reopening the police funding formula that has a stranglehold on our cities resources. #yegcc

Using drugs shouldn’t be a crime.
Being homeless shouldn’t be a crime.
Struggling with addiction shouldn’t be a crime.
Struggling with mental health shouldn’t be a crime.
The crime is that we don’t have enough support or resources for people struggling with these issues.

“Businesses have been quick to blame rising costs on supply chain shocks from the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. But two years later, our economy has mostly returned to normal. In some cases companies’ costs to make things and stock shelves have actually decreased.”
