151·4 天前As a Canadian I’m still naively holding out for some kind of resolution that improves conditions for ordinary people on both sides of the border. Or at least stabilizes them.
One of the most sombering lessons is how innocence is the first casualty. In the worst case scenario, no one can keep their hands clean by this conflict’s end.

6·8 天前I am once again ashamed at living in BC and being in proximity to Global News. What a terribly written article and piece of “journalism.” There’s not a single argument or connection on how or why the “research” was relevant to the decriminalization program OR the end of said program. Tons of claims everywhere but not a single bit of evidence or info for us to possibly connect them.
