The start of my 2025 garden. Tomatoes with companion marigolds. A patch of 3 sisters; corn, beans and squash. A few volunteer potatoes and strawberries with a little room for something else.

#NewDemocrats invented our nation defining single payer public #healthcare system and we are the only Party that can be trusted to protect and enhance it. The #NDP will never sell out the public delivery of healthcare in negotiations with America.

This is Canadian National Film Week. Stand up for Canada by sitting down and watching a Canadian film. I recommend When Branches Bend, available for free on CBC Gem, where I make an appearance as a government entomologist. CBC is indeed a gem worth protecting- I would never sell-out the CBC.

My answers for votepalastone.ca. I believe in a One State Solution, a secular society where every religion or none is respected equally. I know many groups think it's an unworkable solution, but as a secular humanist I would hate to see Canada have a state sponsored religion.

It's a Burnaby Burma Shave!

Standing up for what I believe in. Standing up for our values. Social democracy. Never the 51st State!

New Democrats in Burnaby North- Seymour have nominated Michael Charrois as their candidate for the next federal election. “Michael is a strong fighter for people in Burnaby North- Seymour. I’m happy to have him joining the NDP team,” said Canada’s NDP leader Jagmeet Singh.

Day 1, no tarrifs, Feb 1, no tarrifs. Now it's tarrifs March 1, next it will be after a trade pact review in April. That's what happens when you stand up to a bully. But it's not about the border, it's an attempt to substitute a consumption tax on the poor and do away with income tax on the rich.

New Democrats are fighting to get real people more; they’re not protecting billionaire CEOs; that’s the team that I want to fight alongside.” For more information, please visit michaelcharrois.ca/home.

“The NDP is standing up to Trump threats and Poilievre’s planned cuts that will hurt working-class people. The NDP fought for better health care and is now delivering dental and pharmacare so that people aren’t paying out of pocket.

“Canada and our community need strong leaders who are focused on protecting working people, especially as we face threats of tariffs from Donald Trump – that’s why I’m seeking the NDP nomination in Burnaby North-Seymour,” added Charrois.

Michael has been the President of the North Vancouver- Seymour BC NDP Electoral District Association since 2017. As well as continuing his work in film/TV and theatre, Michael has deep ties to the community, and knowledge of the issues locals face, having worked in a local MLA’s community office.

We’re facing challenging times; people want to see action. But the Liberals have let people in Burnaby North – Seymour down, and Pierre Poilievre and the cut-and-gut Conservatives are trying to cut programs like health care, child care and pensions. New Democrats won’t let that happen.”

“Every day, I hear from people in our community who are struggling to keep up. They’re working hard but can’t find an affordable, safe place to live,” said Charrois. “As an NDP candidate, I will fight to build affordable homes and lower the cost of living for families.

Michael has long-standing ties to the community, is a member of the Union of British Columbia Performers and Canadian Actors’ Equity Association, and is a theatre arts instructor for Burnaby’s Shadbolt Centre Community Programs.

Michael Charrois seeks the NDP Nomination in Burnaby North- Seymour BURNABY – Michael Charrois is announcing that he will be seeking the federal New Democrat’s nomination in Burnaby North-Seymour.

It's Hockey Day in Canada and I'm at the Canucks game. Go Oilers!!!

Happy perihelion! At 13:28 UTC, Earth reached its closest point to the sun in its orbit, a mere 147,104,000 million km distant, about 1.5% closer than average. It's all uphill now until aphelion in July.

Pierre Poilievre is leaning heavily into rage and disinformation. His interview with Jordan Peterson speaks volumes about where he will take the politics of our nation. I was once targeted by Jordan Peterson and the death threats I faced went off the charts. www.thestar.com/opinion/deat...

I loved every minute of helping to bring this monster of a show to life. Thanks for letting me work on it with @lexvegas.bsky.social and the band; I was one of the many band members of Baffin Island Party. I particularly enjoyed playing the Oratorio (just playing and singing the songs) at Jazz City
