CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@emilylowan I didn't know this chair existed until earlier today when I walked past the Leg on the way to the museum. Such a strange coincidence.Also, we don't need an AI minister. We need a tax-the-billionaires minister, and a protect-british-columbians-from-foreign-interference minister, and maybe a pivot-away-from-resource-extraction-toward-higher-profit-activities minister.

BREAKING: The BC Teacher's Union passes motion in support of boycott, divest and sanctions (BDS) movement -- a historic victory and show of solidarity with Palestine. Congratulations to all the teachers who organized to make this win a reality.

@emilylowan aside from the fact that large sections of the railway have been repurposed for public trails / whatever, how do you plan on getting consent from First Nations to fire up a new train system when they've firmly opposed ever allowing that to happen again?

David Eby, on camera, admits that he axed the carbon tax because of corporate lobbying. Cutting it made life more expensive for workers and cheaper for big polluters.He says BC is too dependent on resource extraction - and yet their plan is to triple down on American-owned gas projects.We deserve a government that works for people, not the corporate fossil fuel lobby. #bcpoli #lng

@emilylowan While Premier, Ms Clarke also claimed that LNG was “green energy.” What the hell she had been consuming in order to say that with a straight face is beyond me. The grift of oil — in any of its forms — by governments of Canada and its provinces is long past a presumption of acceptance.

Just like in BC, the UK is stuck between an ineffectual ruling party riding off of its former progressive policies, and a rising far-right one. That’s when it’s time for the Greens to step in.Bold politics focused squarely on uplifting working people can upend the status quo, defeat the corporate agenda, and deliver a better world.Congratulations to Hannah Spencer and Zack Polanski. Greens across the world are proving that this fight is one we can win. #globalpolitics #greensweep
