That's huge news.

Hopefully not too many of the SCS's have shut down prematurely, like Ottawa's Somerset West Community Health Centre's did (March 1st).

Ford government is authoritarian not allowing for debate and public consultation on Bill 223. Moved to 3rd reading with no debate, no openness for voices. They don’t need the notwithstanding clause, there’s no opportunity for a democratic process.

This Bill will Kill.

What a fucking waste of hard working taxpayer dollars to fund police brutality and intimidation and violence. Money for health and education. Not for this kind of thing. Police need to be defunded. Abolished. Gaza is freeing us all from any facade. We are not free. Far from it.

"Dr. King was condemned by virtually every major media outlet in America for taking this stand [on Vietnam]. Even within the civil rights movement, many imagined that he was a traitor to the cause.
And yet, we now know — deep within us we know — that he was right."
