Rustad and his 2 MLAs defending residential school denialist views is disgraceful & offensive.
Gunn says the TRC made false claims about the occurrence of genocide. That’s not true.
No MLA should be defending these views, ever. #bcpoli

The Canadian Anti-Hate Network reports on the anti-choice candidates given the “Green Light” by Campaign Life Coalition. 84 of them! Actually there's even more because CLC excludes those who support abortion in *some* circumstances. ARCC counts those as anti-choice.

For clarity, Sim's quoted intent is no net new supportive housing in Vancouver, period (not just DTES).
Vancouver has a growing need — not a diminishing need — for supportive housing. Sim's promised approach is reckless and cruel.
