Judge: “The troubling thing about this prosecution is that everyone knew what was happening… It seems like these two [gestures to defendants Nyx and Kalicum] are being hung out to dry. As soon as politicians started complaining, all of a sudden VPD—which before was fine—suddenly is not fine.”

politicians started complaining and DULF was busted one week before the Coroner's Death Panel recommended that the government expand the response to ensure nonprescription access to regulated drugs

as DULF had done

and the government rejected it in the middle of the press conference

Trying to find a kind and patient way to explain to friend and family that I don't ever want to see that AI garbage ever. Most of my terminally online friends already know but I don't really know how to explain to my normie loved ones that what they sent me is an affront to life itself

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. One for practice and the other one is the "main" grave.

We started DULF because we knew nobody was coming to save us, so we had to save ourselves. It worked. But right wing politicians made themselves famous off scapegoating us. The government de-funded us. The cops raided us. But our day in court is here. thetyee.ca/News/2025/10...

In a sane world the BCNDP would court him to run for them and scale up the DULF model into a province-wide service. Instead, they're trying to send him and Erys to jail. What a waste of time, money, and freedom.

I've had the honour of working with Jeremy in harm reduction roles before DULF and he is among the most compassionate, intelligent and wise people in the field. He cares deeply about the people he serves and knows how to act on that care

> Read about how DULF's co-founders discussed their compassion club with the VPD. VPD reps offered their support for the project. Then the VPD abruptly raided the compassion club and arrested its co-founders:
