These are deeply concerning allegations and I’ll be working together with my colleagues to address them. More to come. – at Coquitlam, British Columbia
Here is the WILD story of how Metro Vancouver’s confidential legal argument for terminating a contract with a construction company got allegedly leaked to that very construction company

This sounds fucking ominous.
EXCLUSIVE: On the heels of a Vancouver police report on the city's social safety net spending, incoming-B.C. premier David Eby says the province will spearhead a coordinated approach to tackle the Downtown Eastside crisis.

.@VancouverPD tomorrow will release a report it commissioned into spending on city's social safety net - a summary of which leaked this week.
I've read both now, and let me summarize them for you: Misleading fiction.

Think 🇨🇦 is boring? Let’s talk about Project Sidewinder.
It’s a leaked 90s intelligence report from a CSIS-RCMP task force.
It claims organized crime, spies, billionaires, & corrupt politicians work together in 🇨🇦.
It’s some of the wildest stuff you’ll ever hear.

Recently I learned about a man who has trained 1,000+ people to block wind and solar projects.
I read through all his training materials, presentations, and seminars.
Here's what I learned about him and how his students plan to "win the war on clean energy."

A wild ending to Port Moody's election: incumbent councillor @amy_lubik lost the 6th and final slot for council by two votes on election night, but after a partial judicial recount, was tied for the final space — and then won after her name was picked out of a container
Amy Lubik declared elected to sixth position on Council after partial judicial recount. Read more: bit.ly/3DEuPnX

So... here's something that I find weird about the NDP.
David Eby has zero ties to organized labour. He hasn't held a union card, or organized a workplace. The BCFED had to take him on a tour of Unionized workplaces for photoshoots to Unionwash him.

Twitter hive:
I'm looking for photos of dead salmon unable to get upriver to spawn, or rivers in drought from this year.
Any connections to folks with photos we can use in a report highlighting the climate emergency? We can offer a small honorarium.

Will somebody please forward this to Justin Trudeau?

🛢️❤️🔥Comprehensive study confirms there is no space for new oil and gas if the world follows a 1.5C pathway
"new oil and gas is incompatible with 1.5C"
🌄🌬️Redirecting $570bn of new oil & gas investment could "fully fund" wind & solar for 1.5C

Remember how @Dave_Eby tried to pretend he had nothing to do /smears against @AnjaliApp
He was behind the whole damn thing.

I wonder what BC NDP bylaws say about conflict of interest. In a 15 minute google, I flagged 17/39 execs with potential conflict of interests in the Anjali DQ vote.
Eg.
-Declared support for a candidate
-Work for a group/person who endorsed a candidate
Caveats to follow...
Benjamin Perry For Coquitlam Council retweeted
So CUPE can endorse Eby, be a 3rd party advertiser, have members working on his campaign, AND have a seat on the councils that voted to disqualify his opponent?
Because @dogwoodbc wasn't 'sufficiently independent'?
Sure, that seems fair.

A bit much for Eby to give a speech "welcoming all the new members" given that according to NDP chief electoral officer Elizabeth Cull's report:
"The Eby Campaign requested that all new BC NDP memberships received since the leadership contest began on July 17, 2022 be suspended"

Can you guess which industry contributes the following % to British Columbia's Carbon emissions, GDP, employment?

There is all the more work to do in community when the @bcndp govt isn’t prioritizing our issues - find a group working on what you care about and join in. For me: #LandBack #SafeSupply #Housing #ClimateEmergency

look, i’m a progressive and i support everything appadurai stands for but someone tangentially associated with her campaign may have violated a technicality so i guess we just have to let our species go extinct
