So deeply concerned that Carney’s response to that pipelines question boils down to coercion and force against Indigenous Peoples.

“I can’t do it” is a habit. The more you lead with actions dictated by that thought, the more your brain doubles down on believing that’s a fact. You are shaped by what you practice.

I don’t love that Crown-Indigenous Relations is being run by the Attorney-General.
The same Minister who is meant to advance reconciliation is now going to be the same one fighting them in court.

This POS Mayor needs to go. He runs his party & city council like an autocrat. Now, he wants to emulate the clown south by displacing people he doesn't want to see, nor wants to respect. The DTES isn't a fault of the Indigenous you disgusting little man. #bcpoli #vanpoli #cdnpoli
Ken Sim wants to relocate Indigenous neighbours from the DTES. Trump wants to relocate Palestinians from Gaza. Same blueprint: displace vulnerable people to make way for luxury development.

Did my thing, buying Canadian today as best as I could. Progress over perfection. It was actually easier than I thought, the Canadian brands tend to be the more economic option now. Which is sad, my bill is still more $$ than usual.

My kid asked about tariffs. I said it would make everything more $$. He asked if we were safe, then said, but what about the people who don’t have homes? That will make it harder for them to get a home. What about the people without food? We prayed. We said we’d be ready to help in the ways we can.
