RCMP.

The BC RCMP have not been without their share of controversy over the past little while. Recent sexual harassment allegations by a well-known RCMP spokeswoman, the botched Robert Pickton Investigation, the shooting of Ian Bush, the Robert Dziekanski tasering death, and today’s article explaining the force is becoming excessively bureaucratized: http://tgam.ca/DHjK

With negotiations underway for a new 20-year deal for British Columbians, it’s no wonder B.C. is looking for more accountability… Photos below from a recent assignment for The Globe and Mail.

It must be time for a local civic election… I’ve photographed a bunch of the mayoral candidates over the past week or so….
Today I photographed mayoral hopeful Suzanne Anton in front of the Occupy Vancouver tent city.

Canopy executive director Nicole Rycroft holds a copy of Margaret Atwood’s new book, In Other Worlds: SF and the Human Imagination. The limited-edition book is printed on material made entirely of wheat straw, flax straw and recycled content. As the brainchild of Vancouver-based environmental group Canopy, the limited edition is designed to showcase the viability of wheat and flax straw as alternative sources of fibre for fine paper.

FUNDING HIKE.

Shot an assignment for the Globe yesterday.

Sept 14, 2011 – Burnaby, BC – Ms. Gan’s son Jeffrey, now 19, is autistic and non-verbal. Before he turned 19 and “aged out” of the Ministry of Child and Family, he was eligible for support and services that included regular respite care that allowed Ms. Gan – who has had a stroke and other health problems – to send him on outings. When he turned 19, those services stopped, Ms. Gan said, adding that after extensive lobbying she has since obtained support several days a week. Photo by Brett Beadle for The Globe and Mail
