Hi m

Why Does Carney Value Project 2025? A meeting of the minds or thoughtful diplomacy?

NEW: The Carney government invited President of The Heritage Foundation, those behind Project 2025 to address cabinet. Though the ostensible reason was to gain insight on approaching US trade talks, a deeper look reveals far more. Carney's policies uncomfortably echo Project 2025. #cdnpoli

This list—predominantly managers of hospital infection control programs—are undermining revisions to a Canadian standard for workplace respirator personal protective equipment (PPE) that would improve safety grounded in science and engineering. /1

9.6.3.11 Surgical masks Surgical masks are not considered respirators and shall not be used as respiratory protection by HCWs. Surgical masks may be used by patients who cannot otherwise wear respirators, as determined by the Qualified Person, to provide limited source control to protect HCWs.

They HAD to write in the obvious "surgical masks shall not be used for respiratory protection" because of obstinate IPAC practitioners who claim otherwise.

The Save OSC team urges Ontario Science Centre management to provide accessible STEM programming for Flemingdon and Thorncliffe kids.

Don’t turn your back on the community that hosted, supported, and loved the OSC for 55 years.

Is it possible to attend the conference virtually?

What's even the point of local democracy if power is just consolidated in the Premier's office?

The Ontario PCs appointed an investigator in the spring to assess the TDSB’s finances. The audit found no evidence of financial mismanagement. Paul Calandra said a supervisor was necessary anyway and appointed former Metrolinx advisor, Rohit Gupta. Metrolinx!

Your tax dollars hard at work, folks.

Cybersecurity expert urges Thorold to scrap online voting For the first time, Thorold residents will be able to vote online in the upcoming municipal election—but not everyone thinks it's a good idea

Western University associate professor of software engineering Aleksander Essex regarding online voting and the fact nobody can verify votes.

“We are trusting these companies to produce these results. Trusting a third party private company is not appropriate for an election result.”

Fucking cowardly fucks. All this will do is embolden Trump to make more demands and attacks on our sovereignty.

We will soon witness the largest real estate sell off ever. Starve a system then take over and cut some more. Appalling

Any chance we can participate virtually ?

Complete nonsense. Ford is proposing 1,600 Ontario Place parking spaces. Assuming a full lot every day of the year (a generous assumption) and even granting some turnover (let’s say 2,000 entrants a day), the province would still have to charge $82 per entrant to total $60M/yr

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

As Ontario pumps millions into private health care, public health will continue to suffer Private facilities seem like a quick fix, but it leaves the public system with fewer health-care workers, which only further exacerbates public wait times for treatments. It’s a domino effect

What an embarrassment

Who benefits from Bill 5? Part 1: Special favours, energy and critical minerals We have been trying to get this article out for a couple of weeks now, and the ground has been shifting under our feet. As we publish this (on ...

Critics talking about Bill 5 as an attack on democracy.

That's not it.

Bill 5 could not be passed if Ontario was still a democracy.

Ford's had 7 years to destroy Ontario's democracy via Queen's Park.

This is the end game, not an opening move.

This article is from 2008. Together, we fought hard to save Toronto’s school pools. Today, they’re threatened with closure once again. It’s time for life-saving aquatic programming, outdoor education and special needs programs to finally be supported by the province

I want to offer a public apology to FDA head Marty Makary for calling him an ignorant piece of shit in a post last night.

I just learned he is an islet transplant surgeon. Yes, the cells that produce insulin.

I was wrong. He is not ignorant.

This piece of shit knows *exactly* what he is doing.

Let's send a clear message to the Ford government: reverse the cuts and fully fund public education.

New documents reinforce that Science Centre closure was not supported by engineers The Ontario Science Centre was shuttered on June 21, 2024, with the Ontario government claiming that a structural roof issue made it unsafe. New documents suggest that the engineers inspecting the roo...

Elsa Lam continues to prove & document how corrupt & full of lies the Doug Ford closure of the science centre was & is. Read & share widely - not that it matters in Ontario, a province that seems ok w a high level of this.
