Bylaw asking campers at Beacon to relocate to Topaz under threat of forced eviction from Beacon even after we have had NO ISSUES here and had 0 incidents to date.....why aren't we in the news ? clearly we can co exsist and live orderly lives in the community. Zero Impact not bad.

#COVID19 is giving society a small glimpse into what marginalized populations face daily. Uncertainty, fear, isolation, depression. Let's use this pandemic to bring us all together & fight to change these social issues! #WeAreInThisTogether #HousingCrisis #EndPoverty #bcpoli

A year ago, BC's now-beloved Dr Henry called for drug decriminalization. The government snubbed her plan immediately. Nobody painted a mural. The press conference was not carried live. There were no Fluevogs. It's time for her to remind them again. theglobeandmail.com/canada/b…

It's amazing how many people that have never held, shot, or even seen, a gun are experts on them.

Just a reminder that on Sunday prisoners are only fed 2 meals. So remember that when you feel like your having a hard time in isolation.

When you spend your time passionately advocating for PWUD with little, slow or no changes it can leave you feeling like a failure. But remember, it's not you who is failing ; it's the system keep fighting & protect our most vulnerable people in this world. #advocateappreciation

It's very difficult & challenging for people to change when we only give them barely enough to survive! It's the system that's failing and then we blame people! End #poverty #housingfirst #WeAreAllInThisTogether #harmreduction

Vancouver #homeless count 2,223. There are 23,000 hotel rooms in metro Vancouver. It is unacceptable that our most vulnerable are living in Oppenheimer park #dtes. @GovCanHealth needs to implement a National housing strategy & fund Provinces to house people who are homeless!

It's cheque day and #drugchecking continues to be an important quality control measure in the context of an uncontrolled supply in #YYJ.
If you want to get your stuff checked, you can drop off a sample at @OutreachSolid to have it run through our spectrometers.

In January, a group began meeting in #yyj to support equity-informed palliative care beyond professional services. Learn more about how our ePAC Crew formed and is "showing up" for death & dying in the inner city: equityinpalliativecare.com/p…

#Homelessness should be declared a public health emergency across Canada. It took years for me to #recover not only from #addiction, but also the physical & mental impacts caused by being #homeless! #COVID19 #cdnpoli #WeAreInThisTogether #dtes #bcpoli

THREAD: For the last year, our ePAC collaborative led out of @UVicNursing has been creating resources & tools to support #ACP conversations among people living & working in the inner city. Now that #COVID19 is here, this work has become even more essential.
