But the colonial narrative is always that traditional Indigenous harvesting is a threat to species' sustainability.
In November, W̱SÁNEĆ Hereditary Chiefs called for a moratorium on commercial fishing of Pacific herring after noticing a decline in their territories. Instead, the federal fisheries department has upped the allowable harvest for 2025. @sevawood.bsky.social reports 🎣 thenarwhal.ca/wsanec-chief...

It makes me chuckle when people go "Doug can't be PM, he doesn't speak French."

Fam, Doug can't read in any language. But he's been the premier of Canada's largest province for six years.

Sticker number 2 is up in the shop! This one's for all the shark lovers. 🦈
Respect the locals & 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙩 the locals, because without sharks, there's no ocean.

I don't know, but as a Black woman in America with queer family members. When I see the world's richest man throwing a Nazi salute on a global stage after he bought himself a president and a position in my country's government, it gives me pause. It's a lot more concerning than random racists.

I cannot stress enough how weird today feels as a Canadian. Sending all the hugs/love to my pals in the U.S. right now. I hope you're all doing okay today, despite everything.

I'm slowly trying to share more of my art here. This piece was in an exhibition recently & I just brought it back.
Each piece of paper was painstakingly cut out by hand after being painted with watercolours. The whole thing is 8" x 10", but the actual painting is only 3" x 4".
P.S. It's for sale!

The ON Conservatives delayed the adoption of this from the Feds and during that time there was influx of buying up of smaller daycares by chain corporations. As in LTC, who are the actors who are involved in the private-sector takeovers?
Toronto parents have to pay full daycare fees instead of $10/day because the Province cancelled thousands of school-based daycare spots! They want private operators, not non-profit ones. Note how the Ford government hid from this interview. www.thestar.com/life/most-pr... #topoli #onpoli
Most provinces have dropped daycare costs to $10/day. Why are some Toronto parents still paying full fees?
For-profit daycares continue to join the Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care program at much lower rates, particularly in the GTA.

I don't even know where to start with why PP is gross to me, because the list is LONG, but yeah, as a Canadian woman, PP is a giant nope.
I will say, he absolutely gives the vibe of the guy who asks you out & then insults you/threatens you if you say no. #NeverConservative

I think we need to provide cishet men with a lesson in consent.

If it’s not an enthusiastic, clear & ongoing “yes”, it’s not consent

If someone is unconscious or barely conscious, it’s not consent

If you force yourself on them, it’s not consent

If you need them to sign an NDA, it’s not consent

I have a couple stickers being printed & I'm so excited about them. One involves my love of sharks, ocean conservation, & hand-lettering, & the other one is all about my love for bunnies & my hatred of (generative) AI. Can't wait to share them!

Bill 124 was written to undermine public hospitals while making the owners of healthcare staffing agencies rich.

Mike Harris' wife, Lauren, happens to own one.

Harris pulled the same grift - made private LTC legal and then chaired the board of one of the worst.
