Why does BC have an $11B deficit? Tax cuts.
Tax cuts, largely for the rich, have decreased government revenue by about $9B/year plus $1.5B lost from scraping the carbon tax.

PM #Carney announces that he wants >7.5% across the board in federal government services. Given how wonderful the massive cuts are going in the US, it's astounding that he would bring the devastating cost cutting agenda to Canada.

Incredibly thrilled to see a socialist elected to Vancouver City Council. @seanorr.bsky.social topped the by-election vote. On the campaign trail, we saw how many people are affected by renovictions and high rent. ABC has done nothing for renters and Vancouver is ready for change.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!
It's a day to celebrate the joy of existence and to express solidarity with our trans comrades. There are reactionaries trying to curtail human rights but queer joy is immutable.

There was a time that Canada was a model for co-operative housing development. If the Chretien Liberal's austerity hadn't happened, Canada would have built enough co-op housing nationally to house the entire population of Vancouver in the last three decades.
