The Winnipeg General Strike was the largest strike in Canadian history.
For five weeks in 1919, 30,000 workers brought Winnipeg to a halt.
The strike changed Canadian history forever.
This is the story of that strike.

Be vigilant.
Canadians stay vigilant in our politics, the right wing nutters are here and are backed by Conservatives #anythingbutconservative
💯🔥
Pierre Poilievre and Jamil Javani are sowing Stephen Harper’s politics of division and hate whenever and however they can. The call is coming from inside the house, Canada🇨🇦.

Worth noting: Freek Schep, the 22 yr old Dutch-born Ostrich Convoy organizer, was the brains behind a failed “Election Convoy” in January after Trudeau prorogued parliament

Schep told me he also participated in the 2022 Dutch Farmer’s Protests in the Netherlands – he’s a “big fan” of Geert Wilders

Big Oil is using native advertising to "disguise their ads in news outlets" and promote "controversial technologies like carbon capture as climate solutions, portray fossil fuel companies as climate-friendly, or misrepresent their role in the energy transition" finds author @commscholar.bsky.social.
These ads are poisoning trust in media
‘Native advertising' allows fossil fuel companies to disguise their ads in news outlets. A new book argues the practice undermines journalistic credibility.

Nanaimo is among the most important battlegrounds for harm reduction in BC, with influential players having spent years attempting to pin the city’s ills on supervised consumption.

When Aaron Gunn ran his ‘Vancouver is Dying’ homeless hate tour, those same folks welcomed him with an open theatre.
A motion by Nanaimo Coun. Ian Thorpe to ask Island Health to close the Overdose Prevention Site on Albert Street was withdrawn at last night's city council meeting. But a new motion to send a letter to the province to reexamine its drug policy is hotly contested.

It's shocking that one drop-in for sex workers has closed and another is under threat given our city's horrific history with a serial killer who stalked vulnerable women.

These spaces literally do save lives, please give this a read. #vanpoli
The City of Vancouver is changing its funding model for the city’s last drop-in space for vulnerable sex workers, leading to concerns it may have to close.
