The response to the #TumblerRidgeShooting from far-right media, online commentators and even an elected official in Canada is another dark example of how pervasive anti-trans misinformation has become, even in Canada.

From insufficient funding to systemic racism to the decline of math and reading scores to “behavioural issues,” there are regions that do better than B.C. — and other jurisdictions that look to the province as a guiding light.

1/3. Second year of cuts at Vancouver Island University as it grapples with its budget after the loss of international students and the provincial/fed governments just shrugging it off.

Digital Media

Why do David Eby’s freshly re-elected BCNDP, whose Health Minister swiftly promised my BCED K-12 wife Novavax availability in the election lead up months ago, now refuse to even respond to her emails?
Must we join Elon’s right wing hate site just to communicate with our out of touch BC govt!?
Politicians like David Eby deflate the BCNDP’s legitimacy by making false promises like this in an attempt to mislead voters.
Does Eby think we voted BCNDP because we enjoy having to beg the apathetic Bonnie Henry and Adrian Dix for basic means of covid mitigation?
David Eby’s campaign clearly lied to us about providing Novavax access (just as John Horgan’s BCNDP feigned support for TMX opposition in the 2016 election) simply to steal our votes. As soon as they have them, they toss our concerns aside and abandon us.
Power corrupts, and re-elected govts often forget that those whose voted them back in, did so for good reasons. To ignore those reasons is to ignore our democratic voices.
ALL in BC should have equal access to covid vaccines. Pfizer is not an viable option for many vulnerable.
Those who must take Novavax for health reasons should not be, yet again, abandoned by Bonnie Henry’s BCNDP.
We demand access to Novavax now or Eby and his cronies can expect a landslide Conservative win next election in BC.
All my future votes in this province will go to the Greens regardless of threat from the magaCons.
I just cannot continue wasting my vote on this flip flopping, out of touch BCNDP.
They ignore covid, they ignore long covid, they ignore Novavax requests from teachers, they ignore covid transmission in hospitals, they ignore the societal damage this unmitigated pandemic is reeking on our schools and communities.
All of us abandoned to a virus by their well paid, capitalist, economy focused health officials.
This BCNDP govt has embraced societal sickness and now refuses to provide viable vaccine options. Disgraceful politicking. Vote them out.
