I re-read this today. Has anyone else noticed who the people in the quotes at the bottom are? Yes, it's all those people who I talked about in my last thread!

Buckle up.

The first is from Dr. Julian Somers, who you might remember from this:

And this:

The next is Susan Hogarth, executive Director of Westminster house, who seems cool, but I can't help but notice that on her website (though not on her Linkedin) she lists that she was the treasurer for the BC Addiction Recovery Association (BCARA).

You know, the BCARA, which used to be called the BC Recovery Council. The one Marshall Smith was the chair of. (he's also one of the key figures in the BCCSU)

You know, ex-BC Liberal Marshall Smith, who also ran the private recovery center the BC Liberals were funneling public money into, which later got caught using patients to do campaigning for Kevin Falcon?

Who was part of the secret meetings between Poilievre and the VPD?

And who is now doing alt-righty shit like this:

And who is the architect of Alberta's abstinence-only drug policy?

You know, Alberta. Which comissioned research about safe supply from Julian Somers.

Smith who has been showing up at events with BC Proud people. And look, there's Guiseppe Ganci, which leads us to our next name on the BC Liberal's list...

Jared Nilsson, the executive Director at Last Door. You know, the org whose people also keep showing up with BC Proud?

The organization that received $1.2 million from the Alberta government to *implement* a recovery app?

And who has been getting fundraising through PPN, BC Proud's parent org?

Did I mention that Nilsson's Linkedin feed is just a string of Pierre Poilievre support? Of course it is.

Next is Sonja O, a patient at Cedars. Did I mention that Smith was the executive director of Cedars?

Last it's Tanis Maurice. Her name rang a bell, so I thought I'd look her up. I wonder why they don't mention this:

Finally, while doing this research, I found the Alberta Recovery Conference. And who is the advisory committee for Alberta's recovery conference? Look at that. Ganci, Cooksey, and Kalenuik from Last Door, Marshall Smith, and Hogarth from Westminster House

I wonder why these abstinence-only (and largely 12-step based) groups are the only voices that the BC Liberals seem to care about, and not the experts in our medical system? Could it be their origin with Smith and/or membership in groups that he runs?

Oh and have you wondered why they're doing this?

Here is 15,750 reasons.
