Still looking for a social media platform that's decent. If you turn off replies, don't worry, you'll never hear from me. Former news guy still interested in the world.

Are there any courageous members of parliament in Canada? Not hearing them.

NDP Used to Care about FOI Lawsβ€”not anymore, say BC Greens Statement from Rob Botterell, MLA for Saanich North and the Islands on Bill 9 and proposed changes to B.C.’s Freedom of Information law.

In 1991, BC Green MLA @robbotterell.bsky.social led the team that drafted BC’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy legislation for the BC NDP government of the day.

A new bill seeks to weaken the FOI Act, and we're calling on the BC NDP to withdraw.

From an international perspective, America is a rogue state now, right? America doesn't respect international law, doesn't honor treaties, is murdering civilians all over the world without care or consequence.

At what point does the rest of the world say ENOUGH?

Alberta, Ottawa agree on deal that would see province front its own major project reviews | CBC News Ottawa and Alberta have reached an agreement that will see the province take control of regulatory approvals for major projects, something they say will deliver those projects more expeditiously.

I liked his UN speech too but just about every other day I'm astonished at his SHOCKINGLY POOR choices. #MarkCarney #cdnpoli #abpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Canadians should absolutely be haranguing their MPs about Iran. Canada shldn't under any circumstance support the war the US started there. Lib MP or not, let them know we don't want to participate. #cdnpoli

I feel sick when Carney refers to "helping our allies" when it means helping our biggest threat export its terror to other countries. Canada's reputation as peacekeeper gone.

Kinda forgot about him. It was his signing that spelled doom for the squad. He might still blow up another team if the Canucks can unload him.

It's polls showing trump's "unpopularity" that are most alarming. He's their president because he is what the US is now.

Every day innocent bcers pay for mistakes and criminal actions by assholes on the road. It's Eby's way of balancing the books on the bodies of victims.

B.C. Appeal Court orders ICBC to accept claim it denied because hit-and-run driver got away ICBC successfully argued in lower court occupants of car T-boned by stolen vehicle in hit-and-run weren't insured for damages

Good grief!
ICBC successfully argued in lower court occupants of car T-boned by stolen vehicle in hit-and-run weren't insured for damages because they didn't do enough to find driver after RCMP failed.

The world needs to recognize the US as a terrorist state. It'll take too long, just like seeing its an ally of Russia and Israel, not peaceful nations.

The U.S. bombed an elementary school killing 175+ children and then torpedoed an unarmed Iranian ship.

Those are not the actions of an honorable Nation. Those are the actions of terrorists.

Justin Ling: Trump’s war in Iran shows Carney has lots to learn about the new world order β€” one thing most of all The U.S. case for war is built upon a stack of lies, and Ottawa has seen fit to rationalize every one of them.

Two decades ago, Canada declined to go to war based on lies.

Today, Cabada wasn't even invited to the war β€” and yet, for some reason, we're participating in the fiction. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...
