We need to demand the Government of Canada fully fund the #CBC. It is as important as the drones, likely more.

“Proactive, risk-based public health planning” is exactly what we need! Thank you. Can you advise how this will be implemented, for example, to limit the spread of communicable diseases (particularly airborne ones like measles and Covid) when the world comes to Toronto for FIFA this summer?
For the late evening crowd -
Please call Ford if you object to his brazen move to block FOI requests
Note:
- there's a nonpolitical staff person ready to take your anonymous call NOW.
- public outrage has made Ford reverse decisions in the past

We cannot stay silent about this as to do so is to be complicit in the illogical & amoral approach of facilitating brain damage as part of the learning experience.

Yeah. It's COVID.

Don’t let the door hit you (again) on your way out (again).
Did you know this? Well, now you do.
My kingdom for panned eggs!
Sometimes called marshmallow eggs, they look like oversized jellybeans with a white centre that dissolves in your mouth. Discontinued in Canada, and maybe, elsewhere, too.
Beautiful and heartbreaking.
In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”
And yet Toronto Board of Health continues to ignore requests to address this issue.
Messaging has faded but COVID hasn’t.
Data keeps warning us, yet without clear guidance on ventilation, vaccination, and indoor risk, people navigate blind.
Treating the pandemic as over weakens readiness for the next one.
Honest communication and resilient data systems are needed now.
A crime against humanity.
While awaiting my turn to depute virtually, I see Toronto city councillors (who are also attending virtually) walk away from their screens or have conversations with people off camera. It does not suggest that they are giving deputants their full attention.
This is just straight up incorrect. “Lagacé-Wiens said that unlike with COVID-19…masks do little to protect someone from contracting it.”
Respirators (masks designed to block airborne pathogens) are incredibly effective against measles. Why is CBC publishing easily disproven nonsense?
Bsky must be dreaming, too.
Are we dreaming? Well, then, Doug Ford mandating clean air in all public spaces, publicly admitting to his many boondoggles and then resigning.
Wastewater surveillance is a more accurate measure of viral prevalence than testing patients or self-reporting, both of which represent only a fraction of what's happening at ground level.
Let's repeat: you can't have good policy without good data.

Progress! Congrats!
@durhamhealthnc.bsky.social continues to provide the honest, effective public health messaging that we should’ve had since 2020. Imagine the world we might inhabit now if this had been the case. #COVID

Covid! Covid in the media! Hey everybody, come look...a newspaper published an article about COVID!! AND THEY'RE TAKING IT SERIOUSLY!!!!
baffling that the media isn’t making more of an issue out of how carney is gutting key federal agencies/depts and what that’s going to mean for gov capacity when we’re supposed to be more independent and capable.
