Fantastic to see commitments from the NDP to proportional representation! With rising authoritarianism, our democracy is too important to leave to politicians elected with just 30–40% support. Ask your candidates where they stand, and vote accordingly. #cdnpoli

Because of the "safe third country" agreement between Canada and the United States, Venezuelan residents fleeing Trump's raids and detentions are being sent back to the U.S. cbc.ca/news/canada/us…

Thanks to the NDP. #DentalCare

1. After decades of involvement with Vancouver School Board, I’ve tried to tune out. It’s just too disheartening to watch the breakdown in relationships between the board, parents & staff — and the cost to students is enormous. #vanpoli #bced #vsb /2

Good grief. After holding dozens of virtual Vancouver School Board meetings, chair Victoria Jung is refusing to allow Trustee JenniferReddy participate virtually. Ridiculous. #vanpoli

Vancouver School Board Trustees vote to not allow JenniferReddy to attend the meeting virtually even though this has occurred in the past and is common practice around the province. #bced #bcpoli #publicvoice #democracy

Majority of the Vancouver School Board board said “No” to supporting 11 priority motions proposed by OneCity Vancouver JenniferReddy and COPE: Coalition of Progressive Electors Suzie Mah. Sadly, students and the classroom do not come first. #bced #bcpoli

This is truly a historic day. As of May 29, all eligible Canadians can now sign up for the Canadian Dental Care Plan. This will give 9 million people access to dental care they need.🦷🪥 Read my full statement here: ndp.ca/news/new-democ…

Canada tabled sweeping legislation today to increase border security, incl powers to cancel or suspend immigration docs immediately, and huge crack downs on asylum applications While Canadians can feel smug in this tarriff-trade war, it's a pretext for anti-migrant control.

As rent in Vancouver continues to be out of reach for too many, tenant and housing advocates have spoken out in favour of @lucyincanada's motion to return the Renter Office. Thank you to TRAC -

NEWS: No charges for two Hamilton Police officers who killed 43-year-old Erixon Kabera last fall Police and a witness say Kabera was holding a replica firearm. The two officers shot Kabera eight times, and discharged as many as 24 rounds and a taser cbc.ca/news/canada/ha…

As a scholar of the school-to-prison pipline, & even more, as a Black mom, I'm horrified at that another generation of Black, Indigenous and racialized kids may be exposed to police-in-school programs after they've already been ended due to harm. Plz come out this Thursday at 12!

Wild times at the Vancouver School Board board meeting. JenniferReddy likens the actions of board to muzzling her - shows the muzzle for effect. Where is the public voice and advocacy that used to be present at board meetings? #bced #bcpoli

Watered down motion Vancouver School Board board meeting. Ignoring JenniferReddy requests for democracy, transparency, and inclusion. Calling for public debate at regular board meetings. Bring back the public to the public board meetings not via ad hoc committees. #bced #bcpoli #publicvoice

Years after we fought to remove police from our schools, Doug Ford wants to bring them back. Black people know the harm this will cause and we refuse to go back I'm about to livestream today's really at Queen's Park, please tune in!

Strong reminder to landlords and property managers: it's illegal to coordinate rental prices,lease terms, or housing supply w/competitors to inflate prices. Price-fixing, colluding on lease terms are serious offences, can result in prison sentences and substantial fines.

Lucy Maloney has brought a motion to City Council with a single goal: reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries on our roads to zero. Because one death on our roads is too many. SEND A LETTER: win.newmode.net/onecityvancouv… SIGN UP TO SPEAK: vancouver.ca/your-governmen…

My motion on road safety has PASSED! Today’s vote is a win for everyone, whether you walk, drive, bike, or take transit - or if, like most of us, you do all of the above.

We deserve a province that we can all afford. It can be ours - if we build the homes we need. Major congratulations to our own Christine Boyle on her appointment as Minister of Housing! Let's get to work! 🏡🏗️
