Going through boxes 📦 from my Dad’s old office on Water St in Gastown. For years he was on the same floor as Bruce Allen and Red Robinson. If those Smokey bricks 🧱 could talk lol I’m finding some quirky stuff and some predictable items. Put one up on the wall for good luck.

Some of Vancouver's restored vintage neon signs, some dating as old as 80+ years, have come alive in a new permanent public display area at The Post. The neon signs will be displayed on a rotating basis. #vancre #vanre dailyhive.com/vancouver/lit-…

Some of the nastiest election messages were delivered not by the NDP but by two of BC's biggest unions. My latest for @WesternStandard, link in comments.

“Pray that one day that NDP/Green are in power to fix this” Weren’t the BC NDP in power for the last 10 years? 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
Pray for the unhoused, they’re misunderstood and deserve more support. Pray that one day that NDP/Green are in power to fix this. Pray for peace and love 🙏

The collapse of Reddit will be studied. After reporting earnings, its stock collapsed 30% in a single day. It's down 44% in 2 weeks. But the most important detail is what was revealed in that earnings call. The CEO said AI is killing Google search. People no longer get sent to Reddit from Google. They merely get their answers from the AI Mode itself. Even Google confirmed this themselves with their disastrous results - AI mode is cannibalising their search business. Pretty soon, no one will visit Reddit voluntarily. Its traffic will continue to crater. The worst part? Reddit isn't alone. There are millions of companies and publishers that rely on search traffic. That's what happens when you rely on a single funnel for discovery.

An internal B.C. RCMP document proves the police knew “safer supply” drugs were flooding the black market and fueling gang activity. Publicly, officials downplayed the crisis; privately, they knew the truth, the National Post reports. 🧵👇(1/6)

I listened to this but I’m still unclear why neurodivergence caused this person to dress like a disco Fu Manchu bar mitzvah magician from planet vulcan
Looney Leftoids in Saskatoon, SK talk about neurodivergence like it’s real. However, neurodivergence is a branding exercise, not biology. Everyone’s brain is shaped by unique combinations of thousands of genetic variants. Attention, social processing, sensory thresholds, and executive function are all continuous traits. There is no natural “neurotypical” baseline, just statistical averages. DNA doesnt care about your hashtags and delusions

We are a bit overdue in Canada for this announcement.
BREAKING: 🇳🇿 New Zealand stops funding to UNRWA, joins 🇺🇸🇸🇪🇫🇮. FM: “We want to know our money is going for a legitimate purpose. And you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to work out it certainly was not. We're not financing cases where they actually engage with terrorists.”

AFN chief Terry Teegee says UNDRIP means — “that’s exactly right” — that some 200 First Nations are now “co-governing” B.C. land and resources with the government. David Eby denied there is governance, but @vaughnpalmer is inclined to believe Teegee. #bcpoli The Haisla Nation's @ellisbross is a stellar source on the problems created by UNDRIP. vancouversun.com/opinion/vau…

As @Conservative_BC party moves to repeal UNDRIP, a secret report spotlights China's long game for Canada’s resources. Via @scoopercooper China recognizes Indigenous governments exercise consequential authority over forestry & mining. Under the guise of tourism, Chinese officials have sought to exploit that authority through deceptive diplomatic outreach. #bcpoli #cdnpoli #firstnations open.substack.com/pub/thebur…

Oh god. This incompetent woman was one of the province’s most ardent pushers of “safer supply.”

The Conservative Party of BC killed woke politics in BC. Nobody cared about the pearl clutching slander and accusations of bigotry. How did we do it? We ignored the accusations and built a broad coalition focused on what matters. Making life better for normal people.

Brother let it go. The only thing you do is run smear campaigns and gossip online like a little girl. You have no influence. You have no credibility. You have achieved nothing.
Not humiliated in the slightest. We’ve exposed corruption, challenged the political establishment, and dragged into the light things powerful people would rather keep hidden. Your willingness to overlook controversies surrounding candidates like Pavneet Singh in the name of partisan loyalty is well noted. Singh was, without question, the worst candidate in this election. The unwillingness of so many to demand answers speaks volumes about what the CPBC has become. If an NDP candidate faced the same controversies, would you defend him? Or demand his resignation? We both know the answer. Ethics, morality, character, and integrity transcend political allegiance. They don’t become negotiable because someone wears the right colours. If you’re willing to sacrifice your principles to win an election, what exactly have you won? You can celebrate a win, but don’t confuse electoral success with moral vindication. Winning doesn’t erase wrongdoing or absolve anyone of accountability. And as more comes to light, I won’t be the one looking back in shame. This story is far from over.

Leftists want to “protect democracy” but they don’t think any other parties should be elected… so they actually want a leftist dictatorship with no ability to choose anything but leftism… but they see this as “protecting freedom” it’s f*cking insane.

This is utterly bizarre. @Emily_Lowan’s claims are completely unfounded. In her adult life she has never experienced a Conservative government federal or provincial…she is just making stuff up based on absolutely nothing. I previously said positive things about her. I was wrong
BC Greens MLA-elect Emily Lowan says she's "scared" of what a BC Conservative majority government will do: "We will defend every service they try to cut. We will stand in front of every neighbour they try to scapegoat. We will defend trans rights and DRIPA."

.@LDoerkson said today interest payments are "choking the economy" & commits to an independent investigation into BC's finances. Said the $1B accounting error by the @bcndp has him "terrified" at what else they might discover.

Knew it.
Eby should resign. He is not leader material.
