So I finally got an email from @Support and I wish I was making this up but it instructs me to log in. It says they will be notified that I tried and I assume this is supposed to unlock some secret passage but instead it just sends me back to 'Contact Support.'

@mssinenomine asked me to let you all know that she is locked out of her account. She is working on it.

Hi. It's @mssinenomine here and I remain l0cked out. It won't accept my two factor verification while at same time requiring it. I've contacted @Support & they say they have sent email confirming they will investigate but no confirmation email has shown up. Anyway, hi!

Hi. It's me @mssinenomine Still can't access my acc0unt but I'm here. Currently waiting to speak to a motion at City Standing Committee about single egress stairs. We had Deputy Chief of Van Fire and Rescue come speak to VCPC and there are so many reasons for serious concern.

It's me versus against the YIMBYs in terms of list of speakers. I'm so angry. They are just making things up and speaking as if they are experts on fire. Meanwhile the actual experts - fire chiefs, fire depts, fire fighter associations - are universally opposed.

Here is what we have been told: "book will be published accessibly in ePUB format, for those who use screen readers and other assistive technology". Does that work?

“The whole process was dismissive of the evidence,” said @LeonieHerx , the chair of palliative medicine at Queen’s University, who was one of the committee’s witnesses, and a signatory to the letter."

Hey disabled peeps! Come join in the #MAiD Report burning tomorrow @DisabilityFili1. If you don’t have a place to🔥 it but do have a printer—ripping paper can also be therapeutic destruction. Even if u don’t have a printer, u could write out a couple of the recommendations & RIP!

Disabled people, you did this!
This is a tiny win - because of course this is just a delay and it still leaves many of us in the crosshairs of MAID - but it is a win and we need to acknowledge and celebrate it as such.
Crips made the Liberals blink.
Hell yeah!

"For these reasons... Our gov't intends to work with our parliamentary colleagues in the House and Senate to negotiate an extension... This will require legislation."
This of course, will have to wait until Parliament resumes in late January 2023.

Within your ableist system, Track 2 MAiD extends the coercive but seemingly arms length power of the state, to provide a designated class of citizens with premature death at the hands of the state.

Disabled people are a large minority but we are still the minority. A minority that is disproportionately poor, racialized, & not noted for its strong political value and influence 1/3

There was no place for disabled people in the discourse around a policy that specifically and solely affects disabled people and no one else.
