A 12 year old Indigenous boy with autism handcuffed and pinned down by Vancouver Transit Police. Imagine if his mom wasn’t there to record them, how far would they go? Canadian law enforcement treats our children like criminals. Se full video on his mom’s TikTok Mia Brown.

VCH remains silent as they did nothing to provide warmth and care over the weekend, and little to enhance access to medication (incl. opioid agonist therapy in an overdose crisis), to people forcibly displaced by the police & city #vanpoli

On January 31 de facto decrim of simple possession of 2.5 g or less of opioids, cocaine, meth, and MDMA. This is not full decrim. as @garthmullins says: decrim shouldn't be about getting drug-free; it's about getting cop-free.

fifth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, #VPD still don’t have a vaccination mandate. sixth year of the poisoned drug supply crisis and #VPD still arresting & criminalizing drug users. cops truly don’t care about the public’s safety.

Tuesday April 11. The sweep continues. In a nod to the carceral continuum that undergirds this logic, city docs refer to “resetting behaviour” through decampment. Suggests that people who don’t modify their experience of being unhoused will soon face #InvoluntaryTreatment .

Again, about a dozen tents on Hastings overnight and, again, city crews and police work to clear them and enforce fire chief’s order. According to leaked city plans, this will happen daily at first then assessed weekly. “May take several weeks or longer to re-set behavior.”
