Systemic racism in the c/a/n/a/d/a project:

2% are Indigenous women, but they = 48% of the federal prison population, up from 12% a couple decades ago.

Then this: "Despite representing 3.7% of the Canadian adult population in 2021, Black people comprised 6.2% of all accused persons in adult criminal courts from 2016/2017 to 2022/2023."

Did you know that nearly half of working Canadians say their job is the most stressful part of their daily lives? 7 in 10 workers are worried about the psychological health and safety of their work. Burnout, chronic stress, harassment. This isn’t normal, and it isn’t OK. Just remember: it isn’t just you, and it isn’t “just part of the job.” Canada’s unions have your back, and we’re fighting to fix things.

1. The federal ndp now has an ecosocialist leader
2. The bcndp is a right wing austerity, climate criminal government
3. The BC Greens are an ecosocialist party
4. Mannnnny people who voted for Avi Lewis may have now shifted to the BC Greens provincially
5. If other polls in the next few weeks show a similar leap for the BC Greens, then it's not a blip, but a relative power realignment

But we have seen for a year now that amendments 1 4 10 and 14 are de facto void.

And in the c/a/n/a/d/a project the conservative prime minister Carney has a package of draconian legislation to curtail our Charter of Rights and Freedoms to a degree never seen since they were created in 1982.

I am beyond repulsed by rightwing governments in BC who contract out "non-core" tasks inside public services, like food, bus drivers, HandyDart drivers, hospital transfers, laundry, security, cleaning, etc.

The bcndp government and its creatures can end all of these contracts today, and run it all AS the public service we all THINK it is, paying people good money and benefits.
