Concerns about the so called "Safe Supply Drug" Program in BC: 1️⃣ Toxicity of unregulated drug market remains unaddressed. 2️⃣ Overdose deaths have not decreased, with 2,224 in BC in 2021. 3️⃣ Public safety is at risk with increased public drug use. 4️⃣ Lack of support services perpetuates addiction cycle. BC NDP/Liberal Premier David Eby's recent plans to recriminalize public drug use shows a shift in government stance. Due to his lack of support in the polls , his about face looks like its purely out of self interest & self preservation. Drastic measures for identifying & addressing root causes of addiction, ensuring public safety, and providing support services is needed. Let’s work together and oust the NDP/Liberal government coalition from BC and tell them NO MORE so called "Safe Supply" paid for by tax payers and recriminalize hard drugs. We need to tell the NDP/LIBERAL's to Stop poisoning our community, secondly stop acting like you didn't create the problem. Jagmeet Singh is POISONING our province and our country by supporting the Liberals. He can put a vote of no confidence at any given time, but instead he chooses to flood British Colombia with Hard Drugs to poison British Colombians.

This week in the UK, and around the world Martin Especially in Europe. There have been many events surrounding the 80-year anniversary of D-Day. The beginning of the final push that saw the 2nd World War finally come to an end. The support for a greater cause, that has been demonstrated by the many recounts of those harrowing days, is incredible. The perspective that it's given anyone who has watched the coverage is truly humbling. I was sent (yes sent) to a military school as a kid. It was hammered home to us about the sacrifices made by those that lay down their lives, so that we can live as we do now. So, when I mention support, these last few days, about how the right support can help you fulfill your objectives. Your very reason for being who you are and doing what you do. Please garner some perspective about what it really means through your life. The spotlight has been shone on how such a significant moment in history supported the betterment (in the end) of how generations would live thereafter. I appreciate this is a massive subject that can divide opinions, nations, overall views. But yet the parallels right now here in 2024 are similar. Support for a bigger cause, in whatever context, could have far-reaching consequences for you, your loved ones and for how you will be remembered when you are but a memory. After all, when you ask your 'self'... "What am I here for, what am I here to do?" Surely, it's to make an impact, one that does 'improve humanity' in some way, shape or form. After all, if we don't support the betterment of humanity, then aren't we going backwards? Which is what some powers that are sweeping the planet seem to be fixated on right now. Let our support for improving ourselves, our world, be very intentional. Be impactful... in the right way. Let it be very intentional indeed. From me to you, here's me supporting you with whatever IT is you are here to do. In thought, in spirit, in my heart.

Each November the Veterans Health Administration and NCIRE celebrates National Native American Heritage Month to honor and celebrate the rich traditions, languages, arts, and resilience of Native American communities nationwide. It is also an opportunity to educate and to raise awareness about the unique challenges Native people have faced both historically and, in the present, and the ways in which tribal citizens work to conquer these challenges. This year’s theme, Tribal Nations Soaring to New Heights, refers to the fact that for first time in history, Native Americans are strongly represented at the highest levels of government, leading agencies in finance, science, agriculture, natural resources, and education. The Native American population is incredibly diverse, with 574 federally recognized tribes, each with a unique cultural heritage and language. Native Americans serve in the United States Armed Services at a higher rate than any other group, with over 140,000 Native American Veterans currently living in the United States. To learn more about National Native American Heritage Month, please visit the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion’s special observance site: https://lnkd.in/d_k8sm4w. Additionally, please visit Veterans Affairs' Office of Tribal Government Relations to learn more about how the VA builds and strengthens closer relations with tribal governments: https://lnkd.in/dkyRBspW.

One of the pivotal moments that drove my pursuit of a career in the armed forces was in my high school AP US History class, I asked my teacher how was it that the US had been so successful when it was only a couple centuries old whereas so many other countries that had been established for so much longer were nowhere as powerful or stable? Without missing a beat, she responded “the fact that we have a new government every four years and the diversity of our people.” Digesting this concept, we come to understand that the diversity fuels innovation that challenge preexisting notions and a systematic government overhaul carried out through democratic processes enables rational change to occur, with a balanced amount of constitutional conservativism to ensure our nation’s security. These principles have guided our nation through tumultuous times. Although it’s hard to accept, at points throughout our history, the majority often argued in favor of unethical practices including the enslavement of other human beings, the sanctioned displacement of native populations from their homes, the prohibition of women’s suffrage, segregation (and sanctioned severe mistreatment) of non-white Americans, to list a few - all ideas into which the majority were indoctrinated. Although we had our hiccups, in all listed cases, we grew together as a nation based on objectively challenging those ideas and asking the hard questions: Does this really make sense? Is this fair? Would I be ok if I (or worse, my child) were born into that situation? I strongly believe in the principles upon which my country stands and have faith that we will always come to the right ethical conclusion on all issues independent of predispositions in due time. It is our civic duty to stay informed, to keep asking hard questions, and to drive reaching the morally correct outcomes. “For in the final analysis, our most common link is that we inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children’s futures. And we are all mortal.” Happy Veterans Day.

No, there isn't a special military-focused holiday in August. Regardless, I have thoughts to share about this phrase today. Election day is in three months. There is much more at stake than electing the next United States President. There are many others who at varying levels are also vying to receive votes to represent you in our government. And whether those who are running for office locally, state, or nationally are those you personally favor or not to represent you, they are the candidates. It is unreasonable to have everyone's personal objectives comprehensively represented in two national-level candidates; however, this is why we have a system of government that is based on elected representatives. In America, we believe in Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. We equate this phrase to Freedom. Life is granted (or not) by the actions of others; however, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness rely on YOU with the decisions and actions you make. I hope you read through the carousel below for additional perspectives I offer to this idea, as a military veteran. COMMENT with what this phrase means for you.

The power of being honest with ourselves In 2018 I was fortunate to hear a lady called Professor Nicola Fear speak at the Australasian Military Medical Association Conference. Professor Fear is an epidemiologist and internationally recognised subject matter expert on Resilience. She said something very simple but very powerful: "A significant predictor of individual and collective resilience is self-awareness and insight." In simple terms she was saying that when we are honest with ourselves we are best positioned to cope and, in my opinion, to succeed. Living in denial is not helpful. Something to think about when we prepare to start our day. If things aren't as they should be in our lives, what might we do differently to get a better outcome. Small steps.... Go well 😉

Remembrance Day: Reflecting on the Sacrifices That Shaped Our Today As we come together on this Remembrance Day, I'm reminded of the countless heroes who gave their all to secure the freedoms and opportunities we cherish today. It's a day to pause, reflect, and honor those who sacrificed so much for our better tomorrow. The world has transformed in unimaginable ways since the days of world wars and conflicts. From those tumultuous times to now, so much has evolved - our technology, our society, and our world views. Yet, amidst the change, the one constant is the profound impact of those who paid the ultimate price. No matter what profession we are in, whether we serve in the armed forces, work in healthcare, education, technology, or any other field, it's essential to remember that the world we live in today was built on the bravery and resilience of those who came before us. Their sacrifices have paved the way for the prosperity, peace, and progress we enjoy now. This Remembrance Day, let's not just remember the past; let's appreciate the present and acknowledge the responsibility we have to preserve the freedoms and rights we often take for granted. We must honor the memory of those who lost their lives and show our gratitude to the veterans who continue to carry the weight of their experiences. In our own way, let's contribute to building a more compassionate and just world - one that honors the memory of the fallen and continues their legacy. Lest we forget. #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget #Gratitude #RememberingHeroes
