Absolutely did this too when I did my early voting at the Elections Canada office. Voting itself isn’t my only civic duty… I also feel a responsibility to gas up the democratic process & all the amazing folks who assist in it. We've got it good compared to other places, and for that I’m so grateful.

Sending so much love to the #Vancouver Filipino community after this absolutely senseless tragedy. I can’t donate blood at the moment (caught a mild airplane cold) but if you can, please do. Check in on your Filipino friends today, and for everyone’s sake, avoid watching or sharing that video. 🇨🇦🇵🇭❤️

Satire is the highest form of political commentary, so I’m jealous I was not involved in the creation of this site mocking local racist Trump fan and Conservative candidate Aaron Gunn. www.voteaarongunn.com

Rest in power, Ashtrey. A punk rock force of nature at my former karaoke gigs, but also a gentle giant who turned his own struggles with addiction into powerful motivation to help others in the DTES facing the same issues. #RIP #TreyHelten vancouversun.com/news/obituar...

Do I want to grow my own kale, beets & lettuce? YES. Do I expect to be good at it? NO. Do I want to spend lots of money on plants? SEE PREVIOUS RESPONSE. Did I just lay out a whopping $8 for 4 strugglers on discount at my local Asian greengrocer? READER, I GAVE YOU ALL THE CLUES… it’s ok to assume.

Renewing my #DropoutTV subscription was an act of radical self-care & you won’t convince me otherwise. (Especially after the latest season premiere of #GameChanger. #NoSpoilers but even the cut scenes from the BTS episode were amazing. Legendary work from Jacob Wysocki, Vic Michaelis & Lou Wilson.)

Home & exhausted from my journey, but utterly enchanted by Nova Scotia and determined to return (and bring friends for a longer tour). Got so many delicious treats… now the question is which to share & which to keep! Rest & recovery tomorrow - more pics soon. #HFXHEZ

Reader, I stayed WELL off the black rocks! Don’t have to tell me twice. A truly magical day to cap off an incredible Phase 1 of my trip to #NovaScotia. So glad to have seen #PeggysCove before tourist season really kicks off, even if some things were still closed. The weather was five stars. #HFXHEZ

So much to love here in #Halifax, not least of which is the bountiful seafood which can be enjoyed from a truly stunning waterfront area. Fabulously walkable, super-friendly, and I lucked out with a great window of weather. Fingers crossed it stays for my tour to Peggy’s Cove tomorrow. 🇨🇦🦞❤️ #HFXHEZ

Enjoyed a beautiful spring day by taking a long walk to my local election office to cast an early ballot. I’m away in Halifax all next week for early voting & those civic by-election line-ups Vancouver had this month were enough to make me choose an option that fits my schedule. #CdnPoli #ElbowsUp

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Every Canadian Election I approach all the different party leaders and see if they will do an interview / Hip Flip. Here's a clip of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Check out the FULL interview at youtu.be/TZmh_PNMImE Doot doo !

Confident in my ability to properly factory, I take the floor. I smile at my machine. The drill press does not return the gesture. She'd be prettier if she did, I think. She starts up. The drill passes cleanly through my skull, killing me instantly

I just finished Nana Visitor’s new book, which is a really excellent look not only at the female characters of Star Trek but at challenges faced by TV actresses in general. Definitely worth reading for any fan of the franchise!

This is an excellent thread and it’s timely as well as rather nuanced and it’s approached to talking about this. If you were on the streets in 2020, you may know about COINTELPRO style tactics but this is a good explainer.

As the loathsome #PierrePoilievre sees his poll numbers dropping, there has been a targeted campaign aimed at the left & centre left, spreading #CdnDisinfo about @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social. So just to put some facts out there, Carney is pro #UBI. #Elxn2025 #cdnpoli youtu.be/hIDWmuWv8SY?...

Had the most enchanting time in Skagway on a cruise w/my folks 2yrs ago (loved my culinary expedition to Skagway Inn), & all the Canadian love in this thread from the incredible citizens who make that little town the hugely warm & welcoming place it is has legit made me tear up. Rooting for you all!

Stood in line for over an hour with hundreds of my neighbours to cast my ballot in a civic by-election. So proud of my fellow Vancouverites for thoroughly understanding the assignment. Huge turnouts across the city today. Democracy is having her moment & I truly love that for her.❤️🇨🇦 #VancouverVotes
