As we see an elected councillor wear the thin blue line, a reminder that we are not entitled to redefine symbols or rewrite history as individuals. Symbols have collective meaning, and that collective meaning causes harm to Black people. @KenSimCity please talk to him.

Just a tip: saying “you can find me on mastodon with the same username” is almost like saying “you can find me on email with the same username”. You kind of need to tell people the mastodon instance you’re on too.

Car culture: pedestrians should stay off the 100s of kilometers of road in Richmond that don’t have sidewalks. Also car culture: – at Richmond, British Columbia

Take another road to train on, obviously this is not safe for pedestrians. Roads are for cars, sidewalks for pedestrians.

you can’t be the most wealthy and the most generous. – at Victoria, British Columbia

BC’s wealthiest man is also one of the most generous: he plugs millions into our province’s hospital foundations with more to come Today I spoke with business legend, Jim Pattison, about philanthropy, grocery prices, and climate change 👇 @CTVVancouver bc.ctvnews.ca/b-c-s-wealthie…

He (and all ultra-rich people) should be forced to plug millions into measures that will help everybody through greatly increased taxation. Billionaires should be nonexistent, not fawned over.

What We Do In The Shadows has a character who is an "Energy Vampire" that just sucks other normal people's energy by engaging others in the most soul-draining ways. And it doesn't take long before you see the energy vampires in one's own midst and they're *everywhere*

The student food bank at @uvic is facing a $200,000 deficit due to massively increased demans. Campus student unions are asking uni administration to help cover $150,000 and provide fundraising supports. That hasn't happened yet, @UVSS reps said. #yyj capitaldaily.ca/news/unprece…

Unprecedented demand drives student food bank into $200,000 deficit

So far, no change in commitments from UVic despite calls from student unions to help plug the deficit and provide fundraising support.

Yesterday a senior living in #NewWest was manipulated by fraudsters into handing over several thousand dollars in cash. The fraudsters used techniques that encouraged the victim to share information that was later used to manipulate her. nwpolice.org/blog/2022/12/14… 1/5

30 years ago today, #StarTrek was introduced to an absolute legend when Chain of Command, Part 1 first aired during TNG's 6th season. In addition to the regular lineup today, I'll be dusting off some classics to celebrate #CaptainJellicoDay

Daniel Fontaine wants to write a letter to the Federal Minister of Transportation to speed up whistle cessation in #NewWest. City staff clarifies that the Federal Minister of Transportation has nothing to do with whistle cessation. Daniel Fontaine is way out of his element here.

So... Fontaine's motion wants to eliminate "unnecessary train whistles". Well, it turns out that whistles by trains as they go across level crossings are necessary and required for safety. The city could do nothing and still adhere to Fontaine's motion.

So #NewWest hasn't been using the "Royal City" moniker for 13 years and nobody noticed until suddenly people are all up in arms about stopping something the city hasn't been actually doing. Way to pay attention to what the city's actually doing, Daniel Fontaine and Paul Minhas!
