Exciting (?) news! #cosewic has finally assessed the state of #pycnopida as #endangered. It’s an important step to getting this species federal status and therefore protection. Pycnos are so important to BC’s marine ecosystems and kelp forests. #conservation #iucnredlist #canada #sara

I had the privilege to #vote today in the #canadian #election. I voted for the candidate who's platform, track record, and stated values align with mine. I didn't vote for the person/party based on who Trump "likes" because at the end of the day that DOES NOT matter. #foreigninterference #cdnpoli

Opinion: Donald Trump is trying to destroy Canada
