Fierce love filled the streets of Vancouver for Pride this year.
Despite many corporations yanking their support in line with Trump's war on diversity, the spirit was strong - & local unions were of course at the heart of it!
Pride is a protest! Reminding us that there is joy in the struggle.

Canadians deserve an NDP that fights for people, not powerful interests. Last election showed we need real change. A rushed leadership race means more of the same.

Canada must act on its moral and legal obligation to allow Palestinians fleeing genocide to seek refuge within our borders. Our ongoing complicity in these horrors is unconscionable.

It is unconscionable that Canada is refusing to process the immigration applications of students in Gaza accepted to Canadian schools.
Two have already died while waiting.
This is an atrocity and universities should be intervening.

Trump’s team built a snitch site targeting Canadian doctors.
Not US doctors. Ours.
It asks people to report gender-affirming care. Every province was listed.
That's not some code fluke. It's a political threat to scare Canadian health workers into silence.
