Kudos to @elenoresturko.bsky.social for sticking to her values.
Iirc, Rustad blamed HER for the caucus/party's problems, yet the party managed to continually infight and implode without her.
How anyone would go back to the

Hard to show just how thick the smoke is in #Saanichton right now.🌫️
Guessing it's from the #MountJack fire near #Sooke. But by the level of smoke, you'd think the #wildfire was more an interface fire in #CSaan.
Choking smoke drifting through neighbourhoods.😬

It's a tough life when you're a young cat.
#caturday is filled with adventures, but the people never feed you enough to keep up your strength, so you need to sleep to regain your strength.😉

No wonder #yyjbiz want out of downtown #yyj.
I agree with them - it's insane, ticketing a business owner who's having to deal with this?!
Stop blaming govt employees who wfh for a declining d/t. It's this backwards world/clown world that drives ppl out.
No common sense.

Yesterday afternoon in Costco, random guy loudly announces: “Seems we have a ___ problem here”, naming an ethnicity.🙄
The store was jammed with ppl of ALL persuasions.👍
By your attitude, rando, it actually seems we have a YOU problem here.
➡️Perhaps Canada 🇨🇦 is not the place for you.

Very impressed with the safety measures implemented by Facility Manager Jenn & staff at #SaanichCommonwealth for an incident there.
Pylons, highviz vests, blockades, + staff to redirect patrons around a vehicle crash in driveway = ensuring safety of all.
Well done!

Not sure it fits the definition of irony, but seeing a vehicle with Green Party/Elizabeth May bumper sticker, parked in a bike lane, sure comes close.
**Not a hater** - this isn't the party or the MP, but questions the true convictions of the driver.🤨🤔
