This comment from the BC Conservative candidate is racism not seen in the legislature in 20 years. For one it's *entirely* false. But more importantly, it's a recipe for conflict that will literally destroy BC's economy.

Since the @sd61schools Police Liaison Program issue has the most incredible legs, here is a long response from my perspective, an elementary teacher in the system, and union representative. It starts by acknowledging that the issue has been a PR godsend for a struggling VicPD. 1/

Wait did @vicpdcanada chief Del Manek claim on CBC just now that police officers have an app on their phone that allows teachers to track when police are on school grounds? Do you seriously think people are that stupid to believe that? #yyj #bcpoli @GregorCraigie

@CdnFootyMK @CapsOffside I think this is generally right, together with the corresponding collapse of shared mass media. People increasingly exist in and are reinforced in profoundly segmented information spaces.
The BC DOT, with a $1Bn/year budget and direct control over the built environment, is working hard to shift the responsibility--THEIR responsibility--for road safety to people on foot. Pedestrians inflict neither costs nor harms. Safe crossings are YOUR resonsibility.

If BCU actually believed in getting out of the way of the private sector re: housing, why on earth did they oppose zoning reforms introduced and passed by the BC government?

OPP officer getting coffee speeds recklessly and kills a man in a crosswalk. OPP calls that misconduct 'not serious'. Our @JessSpieker: "That’s morally reprehensible. [Any] normal person would hear this story and be appalled." @ctv_jon @TheBikingLawyer toronto.ctvnews.ca/officer-s-misc…
I see a lot of arguments here on X that harm reduction programs - like supervised consumption - have failed, that they’ve led to a bigger crisis. NOPE!! In Canada, the benefits of harm reduction were decided a long time ago. In 2011, the Supreme Court of Canada looked 👀 at…
