Political #homeless advocate #HerbDhaliwal is calling for #Liberal amount of housing for politically #homeless in #BritishColumbia evicted when #BCUP closed & who've been left with nowhere to live but political homeless camp that is Conservative Party of BC! vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/09/17/dha…

Here's a photo of Tupper & 20th at 6:13am. Thought it was quite warm but - having huffed up slope from Alder & 8th - I realize it was just me who was overheated. Now I sit with over-priced coffee & snack in Starbucks waiting till 10:30am for recycling to be collected. #Vancouver

B.C. claims it has 3,645 publicly funded addiction treatment beds. I dug into the numbers and found that 1/3 of those are in low-barrier housing units — which don't offer any treatment at all. theijf.org/bc-publicly-fu…

here's the breakdown of people dispensed a prescribed alternative to the unregulated drug supply by health region. as of July 2024 the total number of people in B.C. with access to this program is 4,074 and there are 225,000 people who use unregulated drugs.

and the unregulated drug supply becomes more chaotic every day. people arent messed up on hydromorphone. theyre messed up on Ortho-Fluorofentanyl and Desalkylgidazepam and veterinary anaesthetics

Looked across street as delivery driver dumped handcart stacked with flats of bottled drinks. Driver restacked & delivered all. Not worried about plastic-bottled stuff but I wouldn't wanna buy the fizzy aluminum canned stuff - it was prob quite "shaken" by its fall. 🤣 #Vancouver

How can a #BritishColumbia #lawyer be disbarred 3 times in 2 yrs. Disbarment is defined as taking away someone's right to work as a lawyer. Isn't it like being fired? How can it be "largely symbolic" Law Society of BC? cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Real shame about this house fire on 10th Ave in Mt Pleasant. Thinking especially about the the sudden dislocation of the residents but I've always liked the house, with it's bright colour scheme. #Vancouver vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/09/21/van…

Nice article about #VictoriaBC #senior #MimiVandermolen, retired automotive designer who was a major part of the team that produced the popular 1986 Ford Taurus. bc.ctvnews.ca/b-c-senior-rec…

Please help Lisa, a PWD and leukemia patient with cleaning supplies and snacks- anything helps 🙏🏾 💛

There aren't any supervised drug injection sites in Richmond. #bcpoli

I urge all residents of Richmond and political journalists to watch this short video about #Fentonomics in light of today's statement by MLA Teresa Wat and BCC Leader John Rustad. Six people a day are dying not because of "safe supply" but because of refusal to make it available.

I wonder if tenants facing eviction as result of rezoning realize that if John Rustad revokes Bill 44, they may not be able to collect on guarantees promised by municipalities, such as interim rent subsidies and right of first refusal to the new building at the old rent. #bcpoli

Here's something for voters in Richmond-Bridgeport. #bcpoli Kash Heed Maria Dobrinskaya Mark Marissen 🇨🇦 🇳🇱 VANDU Sarah Blyth - Gerszak charliesmithvancouver.substack.com/p/is-richmond-…

Are John Rustad & Conservative Party of BC promising to open supervised consumption sites in #RichmondBC? There are NO supervised consumption or injection sites in Richmond, so #BritishColumbia #Conservatives will have to open some to have any to shut down! x.com/CTVNewsRob/sta…
