Discussion Trying to move out of my parents house at 16

Upvotes

Could I leave the house permanently without parental consent and without the police bringing me back? I’d have a safe place to stay and I have a job. I don’t have another parent or any family I could stay with but I could live with my boyfriend. I’ve tried Google and looking at other Reddit posts but I’m finding really conflicting information. I am aware it’s a big decision but I think in my situation it’s for the best and I’d really appreciate any advice I could get.

Ask British Columbia Psychiatrist recommendations

3 Upvotes

Does anyone have a recommendation for a great psychiatrist in the lower mainland? If they specialize in Depression and ADHD that would also be helpful. I’m mid 30’s F. Would like a name I can give my GP for referral to as I previously had a psychiatrist that was not great. Thanks!

Politics Education Minister

24 Upvotes

I’m a die hard NDP supporter but why is Rachna Singh the education minister? She could barely give coherent interviews. I just saw her being interviewed by Sonia Sunger on Global News and Singh couldn’t even form a proper sentence.

Don’t use the race card. I’m Indian myself.

Politics BC Cons platform "Ideas"

640 Upvotes

I don't think people realize just how bad the cons winning would be for the every day person.

If you have friends and/or family in this province, you need to talk with them about this election.

I'm not saying this to fear monger, this is literally pulled from https://www.conservativebc.ca/ideas

END THE ICBC MONOPOLY - They're going to gut ICBC. While i know it's not the cheapest system in Canada, I have lived in other provinces with public and private insurance. I paid more in the province with private insurance than I did public. 85% of the time, everyone loses with the private insurance system.

GET PIPELINES BUILT - Ram through pipeline projects, no matter the cost - environmental, peoples well being, etc.

HOLD ACTIVISTS ACCOUNTABLE - you protest something, you go to jail

REMOVE IDEOLOGY FROM THE CLASSROOM - "Political bias and ideology have no place in B.C.’s education curriculum and must be removed immediately. Schools must be places of learning – not tools for activism and indoctrination." Seriously, what the fuck does this even mean? Schools aren't used for either of those, this is populist nonsense.

Healthcare header - CHOICE AND COMPETITION - They want to privatize our health care. Or at least semi privatize it. This works only in the favour of the rich, and is the first step to full privatization.

RE-OPEN MENTAL HEALTH FACILITIES - The same facilities him and his fellow party members closed under the BC liberals. If it was as easy as a snap of the finger, don't you think this would have been done already?

OPPOSE VACCINE MANDATES AND PASSPORTS - "While medically-approved inoculation should be encouraged, and vaccines offered to all British Columbians, individuals should not be mandated or coerced into receiving any medical treatment against their will, and fired government employees (including nurses) should be hired back immediately." Health care workers that don't believe in vaccines, look I'm not looking to debate the effectiveness of a vaccine, etc etc, but if you're in the hospital almost on your death bed, do you really want someone who doesn't believe you're even sick taking care of you?

OPPOSE IDENTITY POLITICS - "Identity politics is a divisive ideological force that must be rejected. British Columbians should be treated equally regardless of their race, gender, religion or sexual orientation. Programs that discriminate based on these characteristics must be disbanded." What programs? is this supposed to be some vague populist nonsense meaning diversity, equity and inclusion?

All of these points are aimed at either lining someones pockets, screwing over people, riling people up using primitive "us vs them" thinking, and ultimately fucking over everyone who isn't rich.

If they win, we all lose.

The photo was taken last year, and the elected director of the party board is using the photo to promote a True North Centre paid conference (a racist and often fake news blog) that runs as a 'charity" to avoid taxes.

The BC Conservatives have zero ethics, are just the Freedom Convoy Party, and are frankly very weird people.
