Once you start viewing Trump as a Russian asset, his behaviour stops being confusing and everything suddenly makes sense. Nothing is for the benefit of the American people, it's all to serve Putin.

On a Hope facebook group, residents of Hope say they have heard a massive sound coming down
"t sounded like the mountain was coming down." Others say they have heard the same noise. The dark is likely to obscure any landslides taking place.

Vancouver Coastal Health Dec 10 drug alert: Purple chunk sold as down in Powell River tested positive for fentanyl, benzos and medetomidine.

Comes after weeks of warnings across B.C. about the veterinary anesthetic, which is much more potent than xylazine and causes deep and prolonged sedation
You may have heard about a spike in toxic drug poisoning events in BC last month. Turns out we broke several records, nearly a decade into drug crisis: 222 paramedic-attended calls in a day, 1,251 in a week. Van firefighters responded to 54 drug calls in a day

When I criticize the Liberal government in any way at all, no matter how reasonable, my free and paid subscribers on Substack go down. This dynamic creates a perverse incentive, which I refuse to give in to.

But this is a major problem.

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"

Tammi Hamby was just arrested for staging a fake kidnapping of her own daughter to teach her a lesson.

Turns out she's the same Christian woman who crusaded to remove LGBTQ books from the library in the name of child safety.

The hypocrisy is WILD.
