But we have seen for a year now that amendments 1 4 10 and 14 are de facto void.
And in the c/a/n/a/d/a project the conservative prime minister Carney has a package of draconian legislation to curtail our Charter of Rights and Freedoms to a degree never seen since they were created in 1982.
Fuck the fascists.

I am beyond repulsed by rightwing governments in BC who contract out "non-core" tasks inside public services, like food, bus drivers, HandyDart drivers, hospital transfers, laundry, security, cleaning, etc.
The bcndp government and its creatures can end all of these contracts today, and run it all AS the public service we all THINK it is, paying people good money and benefits.

The world faces "geopolitical calamity", and Mark Carney is laying off Canada's highest-skilled diplomats:
"You just cut the entire cadre of most experienced, most specialized people (…) Your influence doesn’t come really from your press releases in Ottawa"
"I just don’t think that things have really been thought through"

The vast majority of Canadians want to reduce our reliance on / exposure to Donald Trump's United States. Mark Carney, Danielle Smith, Tim Hodgson & co are all working to achieve the exact opposite.
