it's Parade time for the Fall Fair in #portalberni #parade #fallfair
Show threadChris AlemanySep 6, 2025

it is always fun, walking or riding or whatever, just being in a parade. And it's extra fun when you are joined by nice people.

My MP Gord Johns is simply the best human. My MLA Josie Osborne @josie_osborne is such a good friend.

I am lucky to be in this riding and have them represent me. #portalberni #parade #fallfair

This post makes me very cagey & nauseous. As someone who is grassroots humanitarian & lifelong environmentalist - never loyal to any colonial political party & only loyal to citizens & the environment that we all need to survive.

I don't trust #neoliberal #BCNDP - for multiple valid reasons. They failed to do better than former BC Liberals. They've permitted more ecocide under their power than those LibAsses did. They pander to corporations over humanity. Their caucus is full of #CareerPoliticians waiting to collect pensions & are failing to fight back, within their own corrupted party. BC NDP has & will keep on harming federal #NDP because they're completely #FascistAdjacent.

I'm not white & privileged like you are. I'm #BIPOC #disabled #WorkingPoor & call our current government -> #BCNewDeathParty because they're also still employing a #eugenist as our #BritishColumbia #PHO & her lack of following #CovidSafety because #CovidIsNotOver resulted in my Dad's death, thousands of other deaths & ongoing #LongCovid #Disability. BC NDP wants to cut funding to only long covid clinic on this island too.

Tell me & thousands of other #BCCitizens why the hell we should ever trust your lying, sellout, whitewashing, greenwashing, eugenics pushing political party? You are absolutely FAILING to put public interests over corporations.

I am very open & honest with what I feel/think.
People in these photos are not as honest or open.

@PhoenixSerenity @josie_osborne at some point you have to separate the people from the party. You’re not wrong or unjustified in your criticisms but at the same time there are people inside and outside political parties that do get it. If we just dismiss every single politician without knowing them then how can we ever make progress to make anything better?

@chris @josie_osborne Very expected PR response. You seem to forget that I quit government because of corruption.

@chris @josie_osborne Then those people who do get it - need to brave up & fight back against their own goddamn caucus crap.

@chris @josie_osborne I separate people from the party when they separate themselves from the party strongly to stand up for the PEOPLES OVER PARTY LOYALTY!

@chris @josie_osborne FYI - I knew many BC NDP politicians before & that's why I loathe them now. They became total sellouts. Even the ones I supported for over a decade & was the person they asked for photos from! You assume I just hate politicians without knowing any & that is incorrect. I knew too many & saw too much ugliness. I also want to remind you that I refused to shake former casino lobbyist & most corrupted dead BC NDP guy, John Horgan's hand & refused to be in 3 PR photos with him - including one at past BC Government House event. I don't bend on my integrity. EVER.
