Great reporting from @thetyee.ca on my local library closing down DEI working groups. I'm really shocked and saddened, I've been really impressed by the inclusively initiatives I've seen at the Burnaby Public Library since I moved here in 2022.

Burnaby Public Library Wrestles with the Costs of DEI | The Tyee
Inclusivity staff groups are being cancelled over budget concerns, but more action is promised.

I wanne be clear I LOVE the BPL:
It has free period products in explicitly trans inclusive washrooms and no late fees.
It's been a warming centre and a cooling centre.
A posted policy guarantees no one will be denied a card for not having an address, an ID, or for having a different name on ID.

I love the BPL! I love how mindfully inclusive their posted card issuing policy is. I love that my local library has policies and practices that welcome my neighbours who are trans, my neighbours who are unhoused, my neighbours who have newly arrived.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
