Not sure where to begin with this. Council has not made any move to cut police funding at this point. Also, this kind of lecture is a bit rich from a government that has tools/responsibility to help #yeg's crisis but has instead chosen the path of abdication and blame.

Last week, Hung Trang and Ban Phuc Hoang were murdered. Hundreds of people from Chinatown are now demanding accountability from @CityofEdmonton Cutting @edmontonpolice in the midst of a violent crime wave doesn't make sense.

#SikhHeritageMonth begins today, and this is deeply personal for me. #YEG’s Sikh community has made many contributions to our city since immigrating here in the 19th century and I now serve as Canada’s first Sikh Mayor, a title that I am proud to share with @JyotiGondek.

Monica Helms designed the first transgender pride flag in 1999. Helms, a trans activist, donated multiple objects to our @amhistorymuseum, where this flag is part of the collection. Learn about the flag's symbolism: s.si.edu/3IU5YMs #TransDayOfVisibility

The news of the latest attack on a Black Muslim sister in Edmonton is disturbing & triggering. Reach out to Sisters Dialogue via DM or email sistersdialogue@gmail.com if you need mental health support. We can provide 5 free sessions with a culturally appropriate therapist.

It is with deep sadness that we share the news today that our colleague Adrienne Pan died Saturday. Adrienne had hosted Radio Active since 2018. Adrienne will be dearly missed by all of us at CBC Edmonton. cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…

Imagine... "[Politicking/politics] as community building and providing people with an opportunity to thrive." @AKnowmadic This is the kind of politics that I'm here for. "Let's vote for hope this year." @LisaPrudenPants

"In an era where politics is often reduced to soundbites or tweets, it's nice to have some space for long-form, thoughtful conversations (...) to keep it real, to keep it erudite, to get into the weeds of some of the issues." @somaryaqub Listen to our last convo of the season 👇🏽

Working with @PharmMorenike on forums about political participation of BIPoC women; building @otherwiseshow podcast together with friends like @ahmedali; and co-creating spaces where communities of colour can openly engage with one another has been a privilege. #community

Very much appreciate this opportunity to share our stories. Thank you to @SKomadinaGlobal and @GlobalEdmonton! In our latest episode "Can we talk?" @AKnowmadic & @kerentangyeg reflect on their experiences door-to-door, the kindness, frustrations, & what engagement truly means.
Global Edmonton@GlobalEdmonton

Running for council can be a difficult journey, but for people of colour there can be additional challenges. Now, some are sharing their experiences through a podcast. @SKomadinaGlobal has the details. #yeg #yegcc #yegvote
