A recent VanSun column sparked fear over BC’s Heritage Conservation Act reforms. Let's look at the facts. The current system is broken for everyone—archaeologists, developers, & First Nations alike. The proposed changes are a pragmatic fix, not a radical NDP plot. (1/6) #BCPoli #BCHeritage #UNDRIP

Today & everyday, we recommit ourselves to condemning and taking action against violence against women, children, & 2SLGBTQIA+ people. I am so thankful for the incredible work of Paul & Raven Lacerte, & for every advocate, for raising their voices & lifting up those impacted. We must do better. 2/3

It is #TsunamiPreparednessWeek in British Columbia - a great time to learn more about the past and prepare for the future, starting with stories and lessons passed down from those who have lived on this coast for 1000’s of years 🧪⚒️🌊 hakaimagazine.com/features/gre...

The conditions she describes are what migrants are subjected to all the time. The United States is just expanding their inhumane treatment. I think Canadians should be avoiding entering the US

This is bad, looking at the photos from Facebook the failure is in the middle of the support. This is a Poma lift, identical to the Whistler Village Gondola. If there is a design issue it could extend to Whistler. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

That is interesting it was an odd one, noise & shaking all at once, then a pause then it seemed to shake with more intensity & was louder, it got me going. Never a bad time to review our kits. 🤓

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up." It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team. You heard him Canada: elbows up. If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.

That would have been the smart way to go about it, however, I called for a dr app, waited for that & they said there was no point be then 🤦🏽‍♂️ I only discovered the helmet damage yesterday…

My helmet has some damage right above where the mark on my neck is, I think it some sort of fluke this was not worse for me. I don’t recall ever feeling that kind of mental fog after a fall of any kind before.

Well it seems I have a concussion, surprising to me given my tendency to lean into adrenaline, this was a close call. Its not lost on me how close. It was while climbing up a favourite trail & I suddenly found myself flying backwards & stopping rather quickly. Be safe out there friends. I am okay 🤙🏽
