The movement is growing! Stand in solidarity with the BCGEU as they fight for FAIR WAGES. The outcome of this negotiation will impact all BC workers. We must stand together if we want wages that we can live off of!

The Van Park Board has made a misguided decision to bring a trademarked Harry Potter experience to Stanley Park this winter. As a Queer woman and a strong Trans ally, this is unacceptable. JKR pours her fortune into actively harming Trans Folks.

So as long as the majority break the rules, everyone gets away with it. And the taxpayer will foot the bill without even knowing it.

Nate Lewis’ article in the Vancity Lookout sums it up pretty nicely:

Plastic talks have broken down more than the plastics themselves ever will.

I have a suggestion. Make the companies who use plastic in their packaging pay for the recycling infrastructure instead of passing that cost onto the consumer. I bet that will convince them to find alternate solutions.

With all the terrible things happening in the world, it’s important to get out and have a little fun. Got to spend some time watching Irish Dancers with Adriane Carr on St.Paddy’s Day. My Grandma would be so proud! #StPatricksDay #campaigntrail

I am a survivor of an environmentally caused cancer. I know first hand the type of damage diesel pollution can do. Instead of fixing the train the right way, ABC stalled - again. Vancouver deserves an electric train & an elected Park Board. #VanPoli #StanleyPark

Thank you GEMFest for another event filled with old friends and dear colleagues. I’ve been busy on the campaign trail, so going to a film gala felt like a homecoming of sorts. Congrats on another successful film festival! #genderequityinmedia #filmfestival

Door knocking today in East Van! I love connecting with people in my Neighbourhood. I love Commercial Drive culture. It’s where I call home and where I spend a good portion of my family time. Thanks to my amazing pro team today @tdigby_64 @cnekolleh @janetrfraser

Anyone else wondering why there is no french on the by-election card? Is it no longer an official language in Canada? And what about our french speaking communities? We are putting the onus on them to translate the material, but not on all ESL Vancouverites.

An incredibly powerful event today. Saying the names of only a few of the murdered and missing women was enough to break my heart, but seeing the banner with all the names that surrounded the entire city intersection was devastating. These women deserve Justice. They deserved life. 🧡

Creating educational programming for preschoolers is more fun than I ever expected. I’d like to introduce the world to Artsy Annie and her world, “Make Believable”!

It's been building for years, but I made the decision soon after my sister passed from cancer in 2023 to step up more politically and use my voice to make this planet just a little better in any way I can.
