Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>In my town. There is too much of this kind of tragedy. </p><p>18 years old and she froze to death outside on a residential street. Why was she outside?

Chris Alemany<p>YES!

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>I have a recurring annual calendar appointment for March 16. Today is the 102nd anniversary of Comox-Alberni MP A.W. Neill's first speech in his 21 year career in the House of Commons (1921-45) where he called for a "white British Columbia”.</p><p>Neill was a white supremacist, anti-Asian racist, and one of the loudest voices for Japanese Internment. He was also an Indian Agent dealing with First Nations and Residential Schools on Vancouver Island's West Coast.</p><p>In 2021 his name was removed from a local school but he remains honoured with a street name.</p><p>I will continue reminding people of this until that honour is removed.</p><p>(A full report about him starts on page 82 of the City of Port Alberni Agenda from January 23, 2017)<br><a href="https://www.portalberni.ca/sites/default/files/council_mtg/Jan23_Updated_opt_tf.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">portalberni.ca/sites/default/f</span><span class="invisible">iles/council_mtg/Jan23_Updated_opt_tf.pdf</span></a><br><a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/PortAlberni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PortAlberni</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/ResidentialSchools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ResidentialSchools</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Tofino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tofino</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Ucluelet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ucluelet</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Ahousaht" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ahousaht</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Tseshaht" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tseshaht</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Nuuchanulth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nuuchanulth</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/JapaneseInternment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JapaneseInternment</span></a></p>
Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>If you want to learn and hear from First Nations women in this part of the world and how they're regaining their space, this is a great article about Nuu-cha-nulth women:</p><p>“Nuu-chah-nulth women are powerful, strong, and not afraid to take up the space meant for them.

Alberniweather ☔️ ☀️ ❄️ 🌬️<p>I have also released for the first time an update to my Environment Canada forecast scraping tool/script/augmenter that translates some keywords in the English forecast to Nuuchanulth (Barkley dialect).
