Reposted by @gromm93.bsky.socialGovernment of British Columbia @governmentofbc.bsky.social · 20/03/2026Today is Nowruz, a time to mark the arrival of spring. While many are celebrating with loved ones, we know that many are thinking of family and friends affected by conflict and uncertainty. May this Nowruz bring comfort, compassion, and a peaceful year.

gromm93.bsky.social @gromm93.bsky.social · 22/01/2026We live in truly bizarre and unprecedented times, where Americans are actually talking about Canada and Canadian leadership as world leaders in anything at all. My whole life, we've mostly been regarded as boring neighbours at worst or "what do they even do" at best. Mostly ignored though. 010
