Canadians are dying of poverty by legalized suicide - current legislation allows doctors to simply fit the criteria to their needs. Many vulnerable people are being pressured into MAiD and nothing has been done the address the root issues of poverty and mental unwellness.
Replying to @Sonjalovesbikes
Reasons I have seen people approved for MAiD: - poverty - loneliness - homelessness - mental illness (note this is not permissible under current law as the sole reason for MAiD, but almost everyone with severe mental health conditions has physical illnesses too)

Cars are deadly, trucks are deadlier. We need a new piece of legislation in BC to manage increasing mixed-use of our roadways. Cyclists are left behind by the antiquated Motor Vehicle Act and our NDP government is very well aware of the issue. Keep writing your MLAs.

This is our shop, 2.0 - Metro Van commercial real estate is brutal and we were pushed to scale up 6x our original model within 6 months of opening. We’re still here two years later! I did not grow up with the conditioning that I could own a business, so I’m very proud of this.

Listening to the Rent film score as an energizer while writing blog entries: realizing it’s a Christmas story and therefore the best Christmas movie of all time! Also relatable lines such as:“To riding your bike midday past the three piece suits, to fruits, to no absolutes!”

#NewProfilePic because I’ve finally embraced being a business owner, a bike mechanic and a blossoming entrepreneur. New topics, so no harm unfollowing if you don’t care about bikes or business babes.
