Given that a big part of the role of the RCMP throughout history has been removing Indigenous peoples from their lands and culture, it’s not surprising the federal government is hiring more RCMP just as they plan to ramp up resource extraction on Indigenous lands.
Canadians deserve to be safe in their communities. That’s why we’re hiring 1,000 new RCMP personnel — and giving law enforcement the tools and support they need to keep our streets safe.

ICI Musique is such a gem - Déjeuner en paix played a Beverly Glenn-Copeland song this morning. Since it's a warm and rainy spring day, and we can all use feelings of hope and renewal, I'm sharing with you another. 7 mins of quiet listening: beverlyglenn-copeland.bandcamp.com/track/ever-new
Félicitations @avilewis.ca! I'm feeling hopeful and energized. We need a truly progressive movement, and an unapologetic and uncompromising leader.
