  1. Today, I am fucking pissed off that #CRD approved borrowing $103 million to build a bigger RCMP building in the Westshore. Fuck that shit. People are struggling to pay rent, buy food/medications/living essentials & our local CRD board gets a loan to help criminal cops/RCMP. FYI - For non-locals -> many RCMP CIRG are from Nanaimo, Langford/Colwood, North Island, Northern BC, Winnipeg, rural Alberta areas. These places have higher amount of Conservative racist voters too - it's no coincidence.

    RCMP CIRG is a voluntary corporate mercenaries unit & they're paid more than regular RCMP officers. Their main job is to protect ecocidal corporate interests, not public interests. That's why I call them corporate mercenaries. They're a heavily militarized unit & many COs are openly racist too. I have dealt with CIRG face to face multiple times, in multiple areas of BC. They're violent armed domestic terrorists who break multiple laws with impunity. They were created by BC government in 2017, under colonial crime boss, John Horgan. I hate that man, even post-death.

  2. A dozen #teachers from the #GreaterVictoriaTeachersAssociation are expected to show up for a #rally supporting the #LGBTQ+ community at the #BClegislature on Friday.

    The rally is one of a series of events across #Canada that day to counter what local organizers from the groups #1MillionVoicesForInclusion and Finn’s Future call the “transphobic rhetoric” of a previous 1 Million March for Children, which opposes teaching on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity or #SOGI in schools.

    The teachers will be advocating for SOGI education prior to the noon #Celebration of #QueerExistence rally.

    SOGI in schools has generated protests in #BritishColumbia which #GVTA president Carolyn Howe said was part of the reason the #BCgovernment recently brought in rules to keep protesters off school grounds.

    She said she doesn’t know of any such protests at local schools, but noted there has been “a worrying uptick in very vocal opposition to -inclusive practices around #GenderDiversity, both in schools and in the wider community.”

    “Victoria schools have #queer staff, parents, students and we want everyone in the #2sLGTBQIA+ community to know we stand together.”

  3. We were at #VictoriaEye clinic, at 9AM. Got Mom signed in for her 1st diagnostic appointment. Waited in empty hallway, outside clinic & then went outside, to wait in car.
    No one except me & Mom were masked in the clinic. Their waiting room was packed & a few people who kept coughing, made me really #covid cagey.
