Very happy Don Davies (my MP) was re-elected. It shouldn’t have been close.
years back, I was at home working on something drug policy-related when my phone rang and it was from 613 area code so I figured it was the collection agency again about my student loans so I answered and SCREAMED AT THEM until I was out of breath and reader, Don Davies did not hang up
Just in: Don Davies named interim NDP leader

The people of Vancouver just elected Sean - because he takes clear moral stands and doesn't back down.
Yeah, he's been provocative, sarcastic and edgy on social media.
But the accusations of antisemitism are BS - repeating them won't make them true.

Nice work, COPE! (Also proud mom of the tall young man in the back row, far left, who spent a lot of time on the streets in the past few weeks working toward this victory)
Thank you to the people of Vancouver who showed up for democracy, despite everything.

In his very first budget, Ken Sim turned down a request from the Vancouver Public Library to provide sufficient resources to deal with a rise in abusive patrons.
He turned them down.
@lucymaloney.bsky.social will fight every day for the investment we need in community services.

Awful news to report: a scooter rider was hit about an hour ago on the seawall detour outside Science World. The City stated they chose a less safe route for the detour, crossing the Science World parking lot entrance, because they wanted to preserve more parking. 1/2

If I am informed about things then I will not be able to speak about those things in an uninformed manner so I must continue to be uninformed in order to keep Canadians informed about the things no one is telling me. This is just Conservative common sense.

I can think of one even bigger mistake: letting Ralph Kaisers onto City Council.
We need to stop him. On April 5th, we need to elect two progressive City Councillors - to stop Ken Sim and Ralph Kaisers from doing more damage.
And we need to drive Ken Sim from power in 2026.

Not even Ken Sim's other candidate has confidence in Ralph Kaisers.
Vote for @lucymaloney.bsky.social on April 5 to stop him.

Did not expect to end my life shooting Yankees down on Zero Avenue but there you go. I'd rather die than live under fascism & hopefully so would the rest of you too.

Late to this party but it took 6 months for my hold to arrive. Didn’t like the first chapter but it got way better once Ivan showed up, and I just finished it on a crowded 145 bus, wiping tears away. Thank you Sally Rooney!
