Cops really cannot help themselves. They could have easily sat back and let ICE take all of the heat from the public. Instead they're reminding the public exactly why the Black Lives Matter protests happened in the first place. Because ICE and the police are one in the same.
LAPD and other local cops using flash bangs and horses against peaceful protesters without provocation in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles, not even half a mile from City Hall.

Liberals about Ukraine: Putin is guilty of war crimes and massacres
Liberals about Gaza: It’s a war. People get killed 🤷🏾♀️

Carney’s cabinet a step backwards in the dark
This is a historical pattern that rears up when those who were once marginalized gain representation within the white supremacist social and economic structure.

Contracting out transit service to multinationals, including #HandyDART, is a disaster. So many lockouts and strikes, so many problems with service, while our public money goes to foreign corporations instead of decent pay for Canadian workers cheknews.ca/striking-cow... #bcpoli #bclab

To governments: How about using CO2 monitors in classrooms to ensure sufficient fresh air is supplied, to prevent another #Tripledemic this fall?
Study states that average CO2 levels should be below 700 ppm. Since BC schools aren’t masked, how many meet this iAQ target? Prove it!
