CW: racism and white supremacy, violence against South Asian bibis sitting in a park in @CityofSurrey.

White people, you better collect your fucking people quick. And people in Surrey, y'all need to mobilize and make sure this shit does not stand!

instagram.com/p/CR8iXDfgZow/ Police fucking sided with these racist white supremacists because they are also racist white supremacists. The only way to stop racism is for the community to stand in solidarity and fucking show these racist fucks that they won't be tolerated here.

Show the fuck up!

Please call these elected officials. They are prepared to murder more people in this heat wave and now wildfire smoke that's wafting in from the wildfires.

.@r_garrison @ndp what an outrageous response. We don't need $77B fighter jets. So called Canada is simply following in the footsteps of US empire and is setting up military bases across the globe.

We need housing, better medical care, and so much more. #NoNewFighterJets This is the email.

Finally, @Fraserhealth acknowledges the heat wave emergency but again, it stresses individual responsibility and not the failings in policy by them, @bcndp and every municipal government (@City_Abbotsford). It's only in English and there are no cooling station addresses anywhere. .@Fraserhealth When will y'all actually implement policy to make sure Black, Indigenous, racialized, poor, inadequately housed, unhoused, disabled people and other groups made marginalized will have the resources to survive?

It's literally all right here: council.vancouver.ca/20210720/docum…

What progressive policies, holy shit.

@jjhorgan murdered over 700+ people in this past heatwave by plunging us further in to the climate crisis.

He's not supporting Lytton that has been burned to the ground by @CNRailway and @CanadianPacific. .@jjhorgan @theJagmeetSingh

Almost 400 people have been arrested at the blockades on unceded Pacheedaht and Ditidaht territory as Indigenous land defenders protect the last old growth forests.

@coastalgaslink and @BCRCMP are still invading unceded Wet'suwet'en territory.

What an absolute fucking farce. I call @mikefarnworthbc's office and the administrative assistant and explain I'd like for Mike Farnworth to stop criminalizing Indigenous peoples and stop killing poor people via the drug toxicity emergency.

He goes on to say that he can only do so much as an administrative assistant and that Mike Farnworth is very busy and the structural change you are demanding of your elected officials may not occur.

Then what the fuck is the point of your entire administration existing? What is the point in calling and emailing?!

The goal of this action is to ensure Zim knows their profiteering from Israeli settler colonialism is not welcome here, not to be arrested.

Block the Boat Guidelines @palyouthmvmt 1. Do not talk to the police. There are police liaisons whose role is to do this. If police talk to you, direct them to the police liaison.

2. If you have a concern or need help during the action, talk to an organizer. Organizers are wearing brightly coloured armbands.
