Trans rights activists have joined forces with labour unions in Saskatchewan to fight anti-trans legislation

A Prairie alliance of trans advocates and unions should be a national model ⋆ The Breach
Right-wing premiers are using the notwithstanding clause to target trans kids, workers, Muslims, and drug users. Saskatchewan shows how a united front could stop them

DULF is a humanist organization that has saved lives. They did what the government has failed to do & regulated the drugs people were already using. That same government is charging them with crimes for not sitting idly by & watching more people die preventable deaths from an unregulated drug supply
Founders of Vancouver’s Drug User Liberation Front Eris Nyx and Jeremy Kalinin have just been found guilty of drug trafficking.

unbelievably grim googling this and seeing cbc and nyt and whateever the fuck reporting it just like "yeah that gang is so fucked up" as if firing a bombing a civilian boat in international waters is not worth commenting on at all
Lethal force against a civilian vessel in international waters is a war crime if not in self-defense. If not in self-defense, only non-lethal actions, such as warning shots or disabling fire, are allowed.
"Not yielding to pursuers" or "suspected of carrying drugs" doesn't carry a death sentence.

We come to know ourselves first through how other people treat us. If someone is raised to hate themselves, the first bit of self-love they’re able to feel might be through someone else’s eyes. This is the main reason therapy works, and a great argument for being kind as often as possible.

“This wishy-washy stance when it comes to jaw-dropping cruelty tied to the U.S. is yet another stroke in an increasingly clear portrait: one of PM Mark Carney with his elbows firmly planted to his sides when it comes to big business.”

Every single time you see a scene of cool, unusual movies flourish it’s because funding was made available. Every time we go through a desert of Marvel schlock, it’s because conservatives made the funding dry up.
In 1980s Canada, a cohort of young filmmakers called the Toronto New Wave made some of the boldest films in Canadian cinematic history because a small amount of funding was made available to me. When the Tories arrived in 1996, that funding was cut and with it the period of creativity.

There are six trans people incarcerated in QC provincial prisons. Six. That's 0.1 % of the incarcerated population. This is a highly politicized move that will have an outsize impact on a tiny # of people. This doesn't bode well for other comité des sages "findings." www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...
