BC sure seems hellbent on catching up to Alberta when it comes to bringing in harmful policies that will only hurt people who want to access recovery. Or, you know, just stay alive. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Is the Conservative Party of BC focus on the drug crisis just a cover for their actual goal: to exploit B.C.’s natural resources? 🧵 I listened to the entire interview between Conservative Party of BC leader John Rustad & controversial RW extremist Dr Jordan B Peterson. I thought there would be

I can’t stop thinking about some of the things John Rustad told RW extremist Jordan Peterson in their podcast interview. When discussing the education system, Rustad said BC high school graduates are not prepared for university. “Some of them can’t even write their own name,”

It's hard to believe that 11 years ago I was hanging out on the corner of Hastings and Main using drugs everyday for decades struggling, and today I am celebrating my oldest son's 10th 🎂 birthday. When anyone has the desire to change they can climb the tallest mountain from

Huh ?? Can Pierre Poilievre Conservative Party ever stop dehumanizing people struggling with homelessness, and addiction? His simple slogans ("bring your loved ones home drug free") for complex challenges and unaddressed societal issues are easily said but not based in reality ‼️ His plans

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 A provincial government in Canada has announced it will legalize and regulate a harmful illicit activity, which the Minister in charge says “inherently will never be safe. But the question is, is there a safer way to do it? Is there a more responsible way?”

So… Harm reduction is cool for currently socially acceptable vices… But not the other ones. Got it. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

What I Learned From Dr Jordan B Peterson: “The Right” is willing to sacrifice the drug users of today for their HYPOTHETICAL recovered drug users of the future. A 🧵 The most profoundly ironic moment in the weird convo between John Rustad & JP came buried in a bunch of RW

People in glass houses … maybe shouldn’t run to be MLAs?

A poignant hand written letter from a client at a supervised consumption site thanking the staff for being kind. Tell me kindness doesn't make a difference in people's lives. #harmreduction #wedorecover #bcpoli

More dishonest politicking from Conservative Party of BC candidate @ElenoreSturko, who claims Vancouver was plagued by random stranger attacks two years ago, and since then “nothing has changed.” Well that’s just not true Elenore! Random stranger attacks in Vancouver dropped 80% under

👉 A reminder that since May 2023, NO ONE has done more to promote the use of “safer supply” (now called prescribed alternatives) than @NationalPost & The Epoch Times opinion writer Adam Zivo. Oh look, another “great” article about diverted prescriptions from Adam’s Conservative

I guess posts like this are supposed to embarrass me, discredit my work and ruin my reputation? I thought y’all are in favour of recovery for drug users, and gainful employment so we can be contributing members of society? But should one of us say things you don’t agree with,

Here’s how “upstanding” citizens harass and abuse people in recovery. Don’t ever fall for their claims that they want what’s best for society. They don’t … they just want you to be as full of hate as they are. Be sure to check out the people replying and quote tweeting too. 🤮

In my post about Conservative Party of BC leader John Rustad’s sit-down with RW extremist Dr Jordan B Peterson (yes, he’s an extremist. Let’s not forget he thinks “enforced monogamy” is the answer to gender-based violence), I rolled my eyes at Rustad saying B.C. high school grads can’t

The biggest misconception about people struggling with poverty and homelessness is that they're not willing or too lazy to do the work to change their circumstances. The truth is their circumstances are so difficult that just surviving day-to-day is harder work than most people

I am too shiny 😂. Getting my make-up done for TV.

Time for your daily dose of “What Politicians Are Wrong About Today” Actually @ElenoreSturko, providing low-barrier harm reduction supplies to people who use drugs at home ABSOLUTELY DOES REDUCE HARMS. As an MLA for Surrey South you surely must know that Fraser Health has, BY
