This week has been a stark reminder that when we sit idly by as the climate crisis escalates, our neighbours' basements fill with sewage, community infrastructure is damaged, tennis bail sized hail falls, and thousands face days-long hydro outages. (1/2)
The climate crisis is here, and action is long overdue

On June 6, the Vancouver Centre NDP joined the 12th annual Red Umbrella March. We stood with sex workers calling for safety, dignity, and the same rights as other workers; for justice for migrant workers; and for a real say in the laws that govern their work. Sex workers' rights are workers' rights!

1/ The Liberal government might as well have called its AI strategy “All in for AI”.
This is a document that's heavy on hype, but light on the right guardrails that we need to protect people – and to ensure that the benefits of the technology don’t just flow to a handful of tech giants & investors.

1/ Palantir is deeply embedded in the scariest activities of the Trump regime – enabling everything from mass deportations and lawless assassinations in international waters to ethnic cleansing, genocide, and war crimes.
The Canadian government has spent more than $44 million on a secret contract with controversial American tech company Palantir.

1/ Right now, a bill called C-22 is moving through Parliament. It would let police pull information on who you talk to, when, and where, all without a warrant. It's at committee this week. 🧵

Fierce love filled the streets of Vancouver for Pride this year.
Despite many corporations yanking their support in line with Trump's war on diversity, the spirit was strong - & local unions were of course at the heart of it!
Pride is a protest! Reminding us that there is joy in the struggle.

Canadians deserve an NDP that fights for people, not powerful interests. Last election showed we need real change. A rushed leadership race means more of the same.
