I don’t think that word “evidence” means what you think it means. There is already a great deal of evidence before the public - enough that I’m comfortable with my assessment. That you don’t find it convincing is a you thing. Our values, experience, and legal training are likely not the same.

Would it shock these people to know that most crimes are not proved 100% but only beyond a reasonable doubt? No, they are fine with that standard in most every other case. I wonder what the difference is?

Bless you for doing the Lord’s work. I can’t with these people who insist on “seeing ALL the evidence” before they can trust the ‘kind of woman who makes a rape claim.’ This is unique to the crime of SA - and by evidence, they always mean the character/conduct of the victim

The NDP seem woefully unprepared for an election they called. Didn’t even have a candidate for my riding till this wknd. And the painfully inexpert youth they selected makes it clear they’ve no intention to compete here. Voters are just expected to fall in line, I guess? Ofc we’re pissed off😡

You would think that people currently living under a regime of blatantly arbitrary detention would be more hesitant about supporting pre-conviction punishment

Clearly in this case, Crown could not make that case. Which speaks volumes on the lack of evidence since Crown gets a lot of leeway when it comes to terrorism charges

Hard concept for Americans to grasp, but when you are only accused and not convicted you are presumed innocent. The burden is on the Crown (aka the state) to show why the risk is so extraordinary, continued jail is worth the risk of depriving an innocent person of their liberty

This is humiliating for Kamloops. I don’t want to minimize that nor how threatening and alienating this kind of thing is to the vulnerable . But my God these guys are risible. So inadequate irl that play acting makes them feel powerful. I wish we all felt free and safe enough to laugh at them

Absolutely false. Men are still the worst. The oppressed are less free than their oppressors. Their actions and “choices” are therefore less free. Choices made while oppressed are less morally culpable than choices freely made. This is not hard but for misogyny. Also it’s “women” not “females.”

Seriously? There are Americans who still dismiss this conduct as “trolling?” What is wrong with the American public? I know I’ve been asking this question since 2024, but it took me a while to give up all hope for your collective better nature. At this point I fear there is no redemption

The Americans seek guaranteed access to our energy and minerals, want to control our trade, defence budget, and languages, and desire tariff-free market access. It's like they want all the benefits of a province without being one. GFY 🖕

Donald Trump's war on Greenland is not being led by the Pentagon but by freebooting MAGA companies looking to steal the resources. Two of the companies involved in this incursion are under the Canadian flag. If it can work against Greenland it will be used against us. youtu.be/do30uAAU6jE?...

The PM needs to explain the math of the Gordie Howe Bridge deal. The tolls were supposed to pay the taxpayer back. Now 50% for the first 15 years is being put into a development fund. The New York Times is reporting that 50% will be controlled and accessed by Americans.

That’s how statistically insignificant false criminal allegations are - regardless of the difficulty of measurement. Yet this ridiculously outsized fear gets compared regularly to the constant real risk faced daily by all women and girls and female-presenting people. It’s enraging

Thank you. You’d think false accusations were as common a crime as sex assault such that we must treat the risks of believing one over the other equally. With respect, that is utter bullshit. Only 8.6% of sex assaults (in Canada) are even reported. Any false claims would be a tiny subset of that.

And could we please stop putting our money in the pockets of feral men, 18-55, steeped in misogyny, racism, and bigotry and calling it a “boom economy?” The damage caused in/by our resource communities far exceeds the short-term profits. I mean, have you lived in a pipeline community?

How has our economy been destabilized? And how will spending billions to sell an unsustainable resource stabilize it? Profits are uncertain and will go 1st to private interests. Damage is certain. Why this step? Why not skip the pipelines and spend the billions directly on green energy?
