Ride to Resilience — a raw, real, and slightly reckless documentary that follows professional mountain biker and full-time firefighter, Steve Vanderhoek, through one of the most intense years of his life.

It’s a story of trauma, PTSD, and depression, but also of friendship, forest therapy, and the quiet power of simply staying in the fight.

Steve opens up like never before — about the weight of what first responders carry, the way adrenaline can mask pain, and how riding a bike through the woods can sometimes feel like the only way to breathe again.

The film is independently produced, self-funded, and still in progress.

Over the past year, this story has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined.

The feedback we’ve received has shown us how deeply it resonates—and how much potential it has to create real impact in our community and beyond.

Despite that, securing additional funding—especially within the mountain bike industry—has been an ongoing challenge.

BC News: Faces of B.C.’s
10-year Toxic Drug Emergency

 

More than 18,000 people have died of drug overdoses since British Columbia declared the issue a public health emergency on April 14, 2016.

The crisis has touched the lives of many more survivors, and the friends and families of victims.

Here are some of their stories.

THE CANADIAN PRESS, by Darryl Dyck, April 9th, 2026

‘HE HAD A TWINKLE IN HIS EYE’

When Michelle Jansen learned her 20-year-old son, Brandon, had died from fentanyl poisoning at the treatment facility where he went for help, she said she knew she had to make a decision “in a matter of seconds.”

She could sink into despair at losing the child she described as having a quick wit and a love of animals, or she could find a way to move forward with her two other sons.

“So I could either sink, which at the time is your preferred approach, you know? Or pick yourself up and fight and excel, and that was the decision, the latter, that I made because I knew my boys would be watching,” she said.

Brandon Jansen’s death at a drug treatment facility in Powell River, B.C., on March 7, 2016, came about five weeks before B.C. declared the public health emergency.

“He was very charismatic,” his mother said. “He had a twinkle in his eye. He was a communicator. He would come into a room. He wouldn’t necessarily know anyone and he would smile and be warm and congenial. At the treatment centres, all the feedback I got was he would take people under his wing.”

Michelle Jansen became a voice for those who had lost someone in the crisis, launching a foundation in her son’s name and speaking out against what she saw as government inaction.

A decade later, the frustration can still be heard in her voice.

“People are dying. If we had a gunman running around, killing five or six people a day on average, you better believe that the government’s going to put the money behind it to make sure that that stops, that we’re going to get that gunman,” she said.

But after years of fundraising, Jansen said the family decided to pause the foundation, adding that it was difficult to relive the situation.

“It’s only getting worse. It’s getting worse and nobody’s listening,” she said. [Read more…]

Being Compassion, Humility,
for the Sex-trafficked Victims

 

I remember what it felt like to be a victim. I wanted to be heard.

The ones who are coming to the forefront explaining the abuse from Jeffrey Epstein want the same, and accountability.

That is how I felt after years and years of feeling as if I was forgotten in my situation . . .

Here is Haley Robson:

While watching Haley explain what it was like to be in her situation, instead of feeling her anger and fear, to be able now to be the compassion and feel humility—just listen—is a part of our mastery of the human condition.

The compassion and humility of the higher realms, explained to us by the Buddha and by Lao Tzu, along with the definitions from the Council of Love, from the Divine Mother’s Guidebook, How Things Work in the Higher Realms, remind us Who We Truly Are.

Compassion:

The ability to Love and serve without judgement.

To be able to fully understand and heart-feel another’s situation without entering or assuming that cloak.

The understanding that another has a chosen path and we can only offer assistance and Love.

We cannot complete another’s path for that would be theft. Tenderness.

The colours of compassion are deep red (of our root chakra, our foundation, deep forest green (our heart chakra) and the magenta/amethyst (of our mastery).

Humility:

Twin of piety.

Ability to be truly grateful for the many blessings bestowed upon each and All.

Knowledge that alone we are rather incompetent but united with One we are All.

Necessary for all works and sharing of service.

Its colour is red (of the root and the pubic chakras, our foundational self-Love and self-worth).

Lao Tzu, in his teachings, explained in essence, not to ignore what is happening around us, and how we can do this is with compassion, to be able to fully understand and heart-feel another’s situation without entering or assuming that cloak:

You cannot have humility without compassion, and it is essential because part of what humility is, is not only not putting yourself above, or just as importantly below others, it is putting yourself with others.

He went on to say this—to help us balance our feelings for the perpetrator:

First, you give gratitude that you have not walked that path, and yes, to understand that the axe murderer or the bomber or those who commit what you know are the most heinous acts, they arrived with the purity of grace in their souls, and it did not die. It did not become lost.

Was it ignored or covered? Yes, but you see, the danger when you judge somebody else, you are judging yourself.

So, you say,

“Well, that person is a murderer, and look what they have done, and they are horrible, and they need to be punished.”

What you have immediately done is move out of the balance, the stick is tilting one way, and then what you are doing is you are setting yourself up so that you have to be ‘holier than thou’ and that you cannot dare misstep because then you have to put yourself in the same categories as those you have judged, and that is very painful.

Because we are under the veil here, we have forgotten our many past lives. All of us have played the good, the bad, and the ugly for the experience, and to master compassion and humility. We are all responsible for what has happened on Earth.

Now is our time to listen, to allow the survivors to balance themselves—to practice our compassion, we cannot complete another’s path for them for that would be theft, the understanding that another has a chosen path and we can only offer assistance and Love, and our humility, alone we are rather incompetent but united with One we are All.

We are all here to create our Nova Earth, not to forget what has been horrific, because we never want to repeat this.

Book Clubs for Inmates
in Canada

 

Albert Einstein, through channel for the Council of Love, Linda Dillon, at the Joy Conference, September 2015, had this to say to Dawn, one of the attendees, about going to the prisons:

You are taking care to go to the prisons, sweet Dawn, and to say, “You are loved.”

That is the healing because you are saying, “You are worthy. You may have forgotten that you are worthy so I am reminding you.”

And that is the most powerful action of Love there is.

All beings of so many different races and types are imprisoned in the belief that they are not worthy, and how can that be when they are the pattern of the Mother? Your work is stellar! Do not change it, do not change it.

In Canada, we have a group called Book Clubs for inmates. Here is the description of it from their website:

Book Clubs for Inmates (BCFI) is a registered charity that organizes volunteer-led book clubs within federal penitentiaries across Canada. BCFI is facilitating over 40 book clubs from Nova Scotia to British Columbia.

BCFI runs French and English language book clubs for men and women incarcerated in minimum, medium, and maximum security facilities. Book clubs usually comprise 10-18 members who meet once a month to discuss books, both fiction and non-fiction, of literary merit.

Every month, hundreds of inmates participate in book clubs across the country, and each year, thousands of brand-new books are purchased, read, and discussed.

Leader Rising,
Liberty Under Law

In Canada we have a young leader who has been in politics for over 20 years, has dedicated his life to be a servant of the people.

He puts out YouTubes for us the Ordinary Folk, or as he calls us, the Extraordinary Folk. He champions us.

He shops for groceries and rides on boats with fishermen.

He talks to a lady in a welfare office who used NARCAN 15 times and to young ones in recovery.

Recently, he was in England reminding us of the past to accelerate us into a better future . . .

As I prepare for my next Book Club helping us understand the Universal Law of Intent, Sanat Kumara, our Universal Logos and Keeper of Universal Law, had this to say about our human laws.

Look to your own laws, the laws of your country. They are fashioned on the Laws of the Universe.

Have they lost their way? Have they become bastardized?

Yes, but the original intent of human law — of fairness, of equality, of freedom to create — was based on Universal Law, so simply choose any Law, and you will see a human law, and it is a reflection.

The elements of the Divine Law are in there, so for any human to suggest that Universal Law does not exist is simply denial, and that is not something you wish to participate in.

Be brave! Be outspoken!

And then Pierre went on to give a speech in London, more commonsense!

Thank You, Pierre,
for Who You Are.
