My personal ratings for this BC leaders debate (which you can watch over on Global or listen to here or search "The Mike Smyth Show" wherever you listen to podcasts) are:
Sonia Furstenau (Greens) - I found myself agreeing with her the most and I found she brought up the best points (especially regarding the reality of needing to address the root causes of our ongoing societal issues, like poverty and profiteering, for example)
David Eby (NDP) - He seemed to often agree with Sonia's points (me too!), but he also seemed much more focused on trying to catch Rustad in one of the many areas where Rustad can be called out on (because Rustad is one of those politicians), if only Rustad was someone that ever addressed what he was being asked directly to address
John Rustad (Cons) - I don't understand how people like this manage to always be in the running for leadership spots at ANY level in modern society, let alone at a provincial level, but I guess that's the type of modern society we still live in — a bunch of people clutching desperately at the ways of the old 'Us vs Them' world (the same old world where we just had to have a national day of truth & reconciliation because of how dark life can get when capitalist interests are put in charge of setting the rules for how the game of life gets played).
Of course, none of these people are who people in the HWY 95/A area will be casting votes for, so hopefully we'll start getting some local area debates (with video/audio 'listen later' options) to pass along as well!

[UK] FULL* coverage of the Leaders Debate for those who missed it
(or just found it too painful to finish (I feel you))
Starmer, who knows he will be Prime Minister in a month as long as he doesn't offend anyone too badly: the conservatives have been worse than useless for 14 years. Yes I have a plan. Sunak has done nothing he said he would. Yes my plan definitely exists. Vote for Labour, we are not the Conservatives.
Sunak, knowing whatever he will do he will almost certainly not be PM in a month: Lie. Lie. We don't need to look at the past. Lie. This is about the future! Lie. Probably a lie but my random Google searching can't prove it. Just ignore the last 14 years. Not exactly a lie but so grossly misrepresented it might as well be.
Actually answering a single question asked: *footage not found*
*the important bits anyway

They don’t even attempt to assassinate US politicians anymore. You notice that? Not since the anthrax scare back for… who was it, Barack? And even that… pathetic. This new generation has no respect for an honest hitman. I’m not sure this new generation has any honest hitman - you see that shit with Boeing? Sloppy, fucking disgraceful - you kill the whistleblowers before they get halfway to a lawsuit. What kind of fucking amateur is doing faked suicides the night before testimony? Goddamn greenhorns. Back in my day someone tried to shoot Ronald Reagan in broad daylight. There used to be bomb threats to Congress. I took out a few union leaders in the utilities sector myself. Today’s generation? Won’t even threaten to throw a punch - not even over on that - what’s it now, ‘X’? They got no guts. None! And they don’t even have poor impulse control to boot! Too much of that - that panopticon anxiety bullshit. “Oh what if I get a called out post???” People used to send the president letters full of bioweapons. In the mail! Today’s generation? Not a chance. All because of woke.

I'm a bit afraid as to how they're gonna handle Leafstar's blindness (given... I think that's what the blurb is talking about in terms of her vision?) do you have any hope for this or should we expect to brave another ableism storm
They've been..... less bad lately. At least. TBC and ASC have been less outright insensitive lately, compared to DOTC or AVOS, aside from removing Shadowsight's epilepsy at the last moment and saying it was demonic possession all along.
I'd still buckle in for another ableism storm, but honestly, if you're an active fan of Warrior Cats I'd expect you to have your rain slicker handy anyways.
My prediction is that Leafstar is going to get treated in a way that is very frustrating, and not just because she is losing her eyesight. Leafstar has a long history of making stupid descisions to make the plot move, suddenly being a bitch to make other characters look good, and being undermined by assholes like Sharpclaw when she IS right.
So I'm prepared for the worst. I'm just hoping she manages to get a good, memorable death.

this might already exist (and if it does please send it my way i want to read it) but XY AU where language barriers exist.
Ash is fluent in Japanese and has decent Galarian (Iris and Cilan helped fill in a lot of gaps from school).
Serena is Kalosian but went out of her way to learn Japanese after that summer camp.
Clemont is fluent in Kalosian, has passable Galarian, and knows enough Paldean and Japanese for challengers (but usually uses a translation tool anyway. which is currently stuck in the gym thanks to Clembot).
Bonnie only knows Kalosian and a couple random Galarian phrases.
i might make loose comic thoughts on it but like. ash shows up in kalos with 0 knowledge of the language aside from MAYBE a few basic things from Alexa like "hello" and "i want to battle". two people with wildly different accents trying to speak the same secondary language until serena shows up and can more effectively communicate some thoughts that get lost in translation. bonnie and ash half-miming to communicate early on but still getting equally excited about pokemon things. an extra layer of "ash does not know miette is flirting with him" cause she thinks he knows at least some kalosian. do you see my vision
