And he noted that many officers arenāt particularly sympathetic to DULFās work.
āThere's a lotta conservative cops,ā Heard told them.
A Vancouver cop told DULFās founders he would personally advocate for them.
2 years later, he approved the investigation that led to raids on their homes.

putting scare quotes around "non-medicalized" as if it's anything but objectively a non-medicalized model while yelling from some weird corner of twitter like he has a fraction of an understanding of what judge decided
An activist judge has declared that federal laws against drug trafficking violate the charter, and that there is a right to ānon-medicalizedā safe supply.
This is what happens when you let idiot judges overstep their authority on policy debates they have no expertise on.

today Justice Catherine Murray threw out the charges against Kalicum and Nyx, saying they did a "public service at considerable personal cost."
"You selflessly put yourselves to the side for this cause, and that's something most people wouldn't do. For that, I applaud you."

as DULF dominated the news cycle, and as they planned their high profile raid, the VPD claimed in FOI responses that no emails about DULF were sent to or from several senior officers
for two of those officers, that wasn't true

Vancouver cops are calling border enforcement more than ever. VPD immigration status checks have spiked 80%.
At particular risk are migrants who are unhoused, those who canāt afford transit fare, sex workers, drivers apprehended during traffic stops.

Carney hasnāt uttered a word about Danielle Smith using the notwithstanding clause against trans people.
The notion that Mark Carney is somehow abandoning š³ļøāšš³ļøāā§ļø rights is utterly absurd.
He has been resolutely consistent, using the strongest possible language, supporting our communities from Day One.
It's not performative for him. It's personal: Mark Carney supports his loved ones.
Suggesting otherwise is inflammatory and highly irresponsible.
In my own life I've learned the only path toward understanding and peace, the only way to break hate, is breaking bread with those who hate us.
Division gets us nowhere.
Mark Carney knows that. He's a bridge builder for a better more progressive Canada.

this package was in Richmond yesterday, on a warm, sunny day, but @UPS removed the location and replaced it with some vague warning about "significant weather events across the globe" and I wish they would just say it fell off the back of their truck like a normal person
ALT Latest Update The delivery date will be provided as soon as possible. Significant weather events across the globe are impacting the UPS network. Although your location may not be impacted by adverse weather, the movement of packages in the network may be impacted by weather conditions in other areas.
