This came up again. You can't support renters & then allow more short-term vacation rentals. Per a recent study from UBC: one STR unit bumps up the price of long-term rentals in the neighbourhood by $49/month. I'm proud to be the only DNV council candidate standing firm for renters.

So egregiously backwards & short-sighted. Every person in this province subsidizes cars. Your municipal taxes pay for parking & roads whether you have a car or not. Your provincial taxes pay the health care costs from car-related pollution & crashes. Your federal taxes subsidize O&G companies.
Statement from David Eby

Metro Vancouver mayors have told us they need a sustainable funding path for Translink and there have been a number of options discussed as part of that work.  We will come to a solution to support Translink, but the path to sustainable funding for that organization cannot be on the backs of drivers who are already struggling with the prices at the pump.  A vehicle levy or road pricing are not options we would proceed with. That's the last thing people need at a time when Trump is driving up costs. The real cost to drivers would be the Conservative parties’ plans to double car insurance rates and make drivers pay more. People can't afford that.

White nationalist grifters are such losers😂 Did you hike all the way up from the bottom or did you take the gondola part of the way up?
Screenshot of a twitter post from Second Sons.

This weekend, some of the members and prospects of Second Sons in British Columbia got together for a hike in the North Shore Mountains. Bonds were forged through the shared physical struggle as they climbed over 1200 meters in elevation and 10 kilometers to the peak for some sparring amongst the clouds.

As a municipal candidate, I'm just done with AI slop gotcha images. People say that they want nuance & discussion in Council, they say they understand their issue is complex. Then they demand a one-word response to a massive topic & the word they don't like gets the scare treatment. Not loving it.

True Blue Vancouver, a new electoral association running Freedom Convoy & anti-SOGI activists, is holding a memorial for Charlie Kirk at the Vancouver Art Gallery on Thursday. If this party can run on "common sense," perhaps we need to ask what "common sense" even means.

"Common sense " is the most empty, pointless phrase in politics. I'm not sure how bringing Culture Warriors into a new party is going to solve the problem of a right-wing that has completely abandoned residents in favour of their make-believe culture war & sick internet memes.
Tweet from Bruce Banman from an anti-SOGI rally on January 1, 2024:

Thank you John Rustad for coming to the anti-SOGI protest in Abbotsford.

This is not about hate - it's about love: parents' love and concern for their children.

No one here wants to see kids bullied at school  - but SOGI has failed so BC's Conservatives will repeal it.

The Dominion Society's other international speaker for DomCon, Charlie Downes, is having trouble entering Canada. Kind of ironic that the far-right agitators who endlessly demand closed borders are epicly melting down now that they've experienced closed borders 🍵
Tweet from the Dominion Society of Canada:

BREAKING

One of our international speakers, Charlie Downes @cfdownes_ has been detained at the US border en route to DOMCON26.

Charlie was scheduled to travel directly to Canada from London yesterday, but the IRCC "reopened" his electronic travel authorization at the last minute without notice preventing him from boarding his flight.

Traveling over a land border does not require an eTA

Now they have detained Charlie for 3 hours, searched our vehicle, mobilized a K-9 unit.

Canadian borders are wide open for criminals and illegals but shut tight for peaceful political activists.

This is Raven Lake in Sugarbowl-Grizzly Den Provincial Park, about 100km east of Prince George. "Conquering" a popular hike is as cringe as claiming you "went to war with the barbell" while you half-rep a one-plate bench. Nature isn't yours to conquer. It's for everyone.
Tweet from Second Sons:

Members of one of the Second Sons British Columbia divisions conquered a mountain this past weekend. Climbing nearly 650m over 5 and a half kilometres to the peak with 50 pound rucksacks, they broke bread together and celebrated the achievement with a few rounds of alpine sparring to stretch their limbs before descending to rejoin the rest of the world. If you know there is a better version of you inside, accept the challenge. Join us.

It seems that white nationalist Martin Sellner can add Canada to the list of countries he cannot enter. He also can't enter the UK, Germany, Switzerland & the US over his anti-immigration/anti-Muslim org Generation Identity, ties to neo-Nazi orgs like Junge Tat & ties to the Christchurch terrorist.
Tweet from Martin Sellner:

I cannot board my flight to speak at Dominion Society.

They blocked me the Canadian way.

This is my response to the Government of Canada, Bnai Brith Canada and everyone who wants to shut down an open debate about remigration: you are on the losing side.

Far-right six months ago: "Land claims will destroy fee-simple ownership & all your property rights. You will own nothing." Far-right today: "How dare Songhees Nation sell land & give an institution fee-simple ownership rights after years of leasing that land from someone else." What's happening.
Screenshot from Caroline Elliott from X:

So let me get this straight: 

Royal Roads University has been leasing Hatley Castle from the federal government for $1 per year for decades. 

Now, the government - based on zero legal obligation whatsoever - is transferring Hatley Park (the castle and all of the park’s beautiful public trails & gardens) away from the public,  to a 600-member First Nation that already has a settled treaty.

The First Nation plans to sell the castle & a portion of the lands that it just obtained *for free* back to taxpayer-subsidized Royal Roads for millions of dollars…

…and the public is supposed to think this is a great idea? 🤔

Martin Sellner deserves the exact same welcome as Marcus Follin & Paul Waggener. It's absurd that someone permanently banned from the UK & temporarily banned from Germany for right-wing extremism might have the option to enter Canada.
Tweet from Marcus Follin (The Golden One)

Some say I am too eloquent and magnificent to  hold a speech at a conference (I agree)! I was detained and interrogated. I gave the good officer a lesson in metapolitics and perhaps I have a new subscriber now. Obviously, I have done nothing wrong. I have no criminal record. So this was just a clear example of anarcho-tyranny (to be expected by the Canadian regime). All of the policemen (and women) I dealt with were friendly and attentive (they were generous with food and drink, especially an older Slavic man). Perhaps they were ashamed of the orders they got. The orders did, of course, come from above (not from the police themselves). No exact reason was given either (as always). During the quite long detention (20 or so hours) I amused myself with breathing exercises, meditation, yoga, and reading. Quite an unpleasant experience to be honest, but you can always make the most of any situation. I am glad to leave this place and head back to Holy Europe (which I do not intend to leave soon). Telegram post from Exiles of the Golden Age conference.

Having witnessed the the disgraceful treatment of the Golden One [Marcus Follin], detained and denied entry into Canada without cause, Paul has decided to not risk attempting entry himself, as he would certainly face similar treatment from Canadian authorities hell-bent on restricting free speech and association.

I haven't played Hello Housing Crisis ಠ_ಠ for a few months because it was super depressing but: $3400 for a furnished 500sqft 1-bed in the Crown + Mountain building, located in Lynnmour. You need to make $136,000/year for this to be considered "not entirely financially reckless."

I didn't get any photos of Pride at the Pier last night because I was busy talking to everyone 😅 But I'm so grateful for all of the North Shore folks who come together every year to throw an amazing party, even when the weather isn't the best! Happy Pride, North Vancouver 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (📸 from last year)

Remember when a bunch of anti-Indigenous pundits started crying because a Nation booked out one single campground for 5 days? Now all campgrounds are closed & under an evacuation alert due to the Fiftynine Creek wildfire. Hwy 97 access is cut off because the highway is closed.
Tweet from Caroline Elliott:

Remember when I said it set a dangerous precedent to shut down Joffre Lakes Provincial Park to non-Indigenous British Columbians? 

Now a popular campground at Green Lake Provincial Park in the Cariboo is closed based on ancestry too, during peak camping season. 

With 200+ Indigenous groups in BC with overlapping traditional territories effectively covering over 100% of the province, expect more of this. Much more. 

And instead of insisting on equal access to parks for all, BC’s NDP government is enforcing these race-based closures. 

I will never, ever stop fighting for this very simple principle: BC’s beautiful provincial parks belong to ALL British Columbians.Screenshot from BC Parks website

Park is partially closed due to wildfire
The Fiftynine Creek Wildfire has forced the closure of Emerald Bay, Sunset View and Arrowhead campgrounds.

In the interest of public safety, BC Parks has partially closed this park until further notice.

Get up-to-date information from other official sources, such as the BC Wildfire Service (BCWS), the local regional district, and Drive BC.

You can still visit other BC Parks that remain unaffected by wildfire. Find other places to visit on the find a park page.

Park is under evacuation alert.
