  1. If you want to understand more about how white privilege works, especially in Victoria, BC, Canada - try suggesting developing a data centre in middle of Oak Bay - the richest, the whitest, the most privileged population in this city.
    I'll bet my life, Mom's life, both my brother's lives - it would not go through, after only one council meeting, because super rich elites would not want that in their backyards. They're OK having it in our lesser privileged backyards though.

    That's the same municipality that refused to build or convert unused old buildings into more affordable housing. They're completely against any type of social housing or supportive housing for our most marginalized citizens too.

  6. For people who like to blame women for not trying to get help from cops - you don't understand why many women won't call cops ever again. You'd rather keep blaming women than trying to understand why most of us would never trust cops again.
    I'd rather die fighting off someone attacking me than calling any cops for help. I'm far from the only non-white woman who feels that way in 2026.

  11. Please don't call the cops on homeless folks, who you may see/run into at some parks, if they're not bothering anyone at all & are trying to keep to themselves. I've met several different homeless folks all around this large urban park & never felt scared around them. I sometimes bring them free foods & first aid supplies.

    We desperately need more social & transitional supportive housing in #VictoriaBC. All municipalities should be working on this - together. This is a shared social responsibility & it crosses every municipal border. Demonizing, dehumanizing & criminalizing homeless folks hasn't helped at all - it is also very unkind & lacking of humanity.
