ICYMI: Under David Eby, British Columbia has recruited 800+ American health workers & he just pledged to triple it, & to bring Canadians working in U.S. health care home with loan forgiveness & moving support The Conservative parties would cancel it all #bchealth #bcpoli

Just to be clear Forever Canadian proponents *never* asked for a referendum Thomas Lukaszuk - the proponent of the Forever Canadian petition - *never* requested a referendum He checked the box for a "vote in the Legislature" not for a referendum Premier Smith Lies #AlbertaSeparatists cheat #Alberta

Between 2006 & 2008, 38 migrant workers building Vancouver's Canada Line were discriminated against by their employers A B.C. Human Rights Tribunal awarded them over $2.4M in settlements after determining they got lower wages & inferior housing compared to European counterparts #VictoriaBC #canlab

Call your Congress member or Senator *today* Tell them *not* to vote for the DHS spending bill unless it includes a commitment to disarm #ICEAgents and that #ICE agents must *not* have absolute immunity for their crimes against the American public

#ICEAgents ARE the "worst of the worst" Contrary to the lies trotted out by #KristiNoem & the #TrumpAdministration, #ICE is making people *less* safe

As someone pointed out, the govt should prevent airlines from selling tickets beyond their workers' collective agreements...allows carriers to create the false narrative that a strike strands passengers It's #AirCanada stranding passengers...not the flight attendants #UnpaidWorkWontFly #cdnpoli

Anyone who volunteers can make a difference in the results (anywhere between 5-10%, according to this article from Canada globalnews.ca/news/6056886...) That being said, gerrymandering is a huge problem in the USA But every vote against these GOP cheaters is a win, IMO

Why Are They Hiding Their Faces? If ICE agents' actions are perfectly acceptable, they shouldn't have to mask their identities #Resist #NoKings #NoKingsDay #June14th thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/ice-dhs-of...
