We’re not “stumped” on the housing crisis, we fly airplanes and spaceships, our phones translate languages in real time, we’re brilliant when it suits us. We’re indifferent. Poverty is STILL an act of violence.

Food brings people together , creates community and improves lives. Nobody does this better than @RealMarkBrand. I so admire his amazing work. Tonight at The Cheeky Neighbor Diner he brought together leaders to talk, dine and change the world.

7 years sober. Man, that’s emotional to say out loud, to type, the joy in it is full body, gratitude on ten. Breaking the conditions of needing to escape myself continues to bring lessons and deepening.

Every single project that matters to our future and present, is wildly underfunded. The people doing the most to save us all, are doing it with the least, and often on top of full time work to feed their families. Those doing the worst, buying spaceships and social platforms.

25 % of Canadians are officially food insecure. 1 in 4…. We pay 25 billion in taxes a year to starve a quarter of the country? Food is a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT and we can’t even make it affordable enough for our citizens to feed themselves. When is enough, enough?

Assuming the best in people allows space for them to prove you right. Assuming the worst forces them to prove you wrong. I know what side I’m staying on.

Today the city of Vancouver failed its residents, all of them. This is not a solution, it’s cruelty. Deeply disheartened this is where we are, for shame.

The NRA should be the target of your anger, there is NOTHING confusing about 139 mass shootings in 80 days. Money moves the policy, the NRA moves the money, children get killed at school. How, is, this, STILL, happening? How are people still saying Guns aren’t the problem?

Lunchables just got approved as “food” in cafeterias in the US. Lunchables are not food. Nothing processed is food. How do we continue to make the worst possible decision with the most data, each and every time, ESPECIALLY around the health of those who don’t have agency?
