Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Dear Albertans,

The COVID and flu vaccine pre-order page is live. You need to preorder the COVID and flu vaccines by Sept 30 or else...I don't know?

There's no upfront charge when you pre-order so please please show the govt we want the vaccines

This is why your child is not getting Educational Assistant support.

This is why there is no Special Education Teacher to help your child catch up on basic math or literacy skills.

This is why the ventilation in your child’s classroom is not working.

Kieran Moore this week: "I don't want anyone worrying. Our schools remain safe in elementary & secondary. Our public spaces remain safe."

Refusing boosters & putting infants at risk.

Ontario lost a child to measles last year. What is wrong with us? We're sleepwalking.

Media must press.

This is punishing the kids who are vaccinated. I thought unvaccinated students had to miss 21 days. Are they having trouble figuring out which students those are? Is that why schools are closed? @rowpublichealth.bsky.social

Conrad Stanley wasn't elected into this position. How is he able to table such hateful motions when no one elected him? He doesn't speak for voters.

Hundreds of local residents showed up at this evening's WCDSB meeting with love in their hearts to show the 2SLGBTQIA+ community that they have our support. Banning Pride flags will cause harm and won't protect students. Symbols matter. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

As a proud Canadian-owned and operated company, we want to do our part to support Canadians. As a family we have decided to absorb all immediate increases in our costs due to the Trump-tariffs for the rest of the year to maintain our prices. We will continue to reinforce our Canadian-first policies.

The image is a black-and-white political cartoon depicting a man in a suit standing behind a counter labeled "Republican Platform." He is holding a bottle labeled "Untaxed Whiskey, 20Β’ Gal." in one hand and a piece of cloth labeled "War-Taxed Common Cloth, Tariff 84%" in the other. Above the counter, a sign reads, "If you don’t see what you want, ask for it." The cartoon, signed by W.A. Rogers, appears to satirize the Republican Party's economic policies, highlighting the disparity in taxation between luxury items like whiskey and essential goods like cloth.

In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%.
While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired.
Let's learn more.

COVID-19 respiratory surveillance New South Wales Australia December 2024 and the preceding year. COVID-19 shows an ululating wave pattern in that period of around three waves with the fourth just starting. Influenza shows a single spike. Influenza wave has a larger amplitude however COVID-19 PCR testing is severely restricted.

Top graph… what we have going on with C19 (scaled down compared to flu due to most people using RAT, or nothing).

Bottom graph, flu.

No matter how hard you stare at it, C19 graph is just refusing to morph into a tidy spike like flu.

Wishful thinking doesn’t work.
