RNS) — As Christians across the globe prepare to celebrate Easter, many in Nigeria fear they may be unable to observe the sacred day due to escalating attacks from Islamic militants.

“We could not celebrate Palm Sunday due to the security situation in our area,” Mary Yakubu, a resident of Nigeria’s central Plateau state, where nearly 200 Christians were killed on Christmas Eve in 2023, told RNS by phone. “Once again, we will be unable to prepare and celebrate Easter, as most churches here are closed and people fear gathering due to the ongoing attacks on churches and worshippers.”

We should not disenfranchise poor people when we do not have bus connections from the smaller towns. How can they get to Victoria to protest for better public transit if they cannot leave their small town in the first place. You clearly do not understand the reality here.

The public transit needs to massively improve in BC before we start taking out the stick.

I hope Doug Ford thinks Pierre Poilievre is too crude with his methods.

I wish I heard about it sooner. I never knew we had a public broadcaster here in BC.

Gender affirming surgeries are rare for teenagers and even if they do happen it's for 16 year olds and up with strong cases.
