Reminder: Bill C-3 came into effect just recently in Canada.
“Lost Canadians” are those who lost their citizenship from marrying a non-Canadian.
Their descendants are now automatically Canadians. Is that you?
Then you need to prove it. But a lot of people are getting theirs approved.
As a short adult (157 cm) most new trucks have hoods over my head.
They can’t see me, or most kids under 12.
I wonder how many meals @wck.org could serve with 93B?
Or how many doses of vaccines or medication could be given to prevent & treat illnesses?
This was on Granville, in Vancouver, BC @ Balfour intersection. Red traffic light. Thankfully no one on bike or in a car crossing, just me who was able to stop walking on time.
Around 20:15, good visibility.
To the man who drove his truck over the speed limit on a well established RED light without even slowing down: Shame on you!!
Decades of walking/riding in cities gave me that 6th sense of knowing when a driver won’t stop (or slow down in this case) at a RED light even with at least 200m to go.
I’m not a big curling guy, but I get the significance of this, and WOW it’s mind-blowing. Some are calling it the best shot in curling history! #TeamCanada at the #ParalympicGames.
And I am now rebuilding my vinyl collection. Sigh.
A baseball cap doesn’t offer dignity. It shows disrespect for the lives lost.
Hey, great news gang! Vinay Prasad is out at the FDA.
Again.
Let’s hope it sticks this time.
I will recognize that smell until I die. 5 years in an all girl school, age 12-17, late 80s!!!
They are adorable. I might need to adopt a new one!!!
Sorry, Rest of Canada. Winter is done here. Daffodils are blooming, rhododendrons are showing their colors and the cherry blossom trees are spectacular!!
Ouch. And true.
This is correct. The entire goal of being a scientist is to disseminate your findings and knowledge to as many people as possible. This is also how we are awarded grants and maintain academic positions.
“Wait, we’re afraid of walkable distances now?”*
*best response ever to the manufactured conspiracy theories about “15-Minute Cities” and the simple idea of having more things we need nearby. #UrbanTruth
Genesis, Supper’s Ready. A flower?
I should add: a tall white cis man.
If that doesn’t ring a bell and scare you, please go read a 20th century history book… especially if you are not a tall white man.
This is eugenics. Genocide. An attack on science, medical ethics, bodily autonomy, and human rights.
Where is the outcry from the biomedical community? Trans people aren't just abstract patients and research participants: We're your friends, family, and co-workers.
Speak up before it's too late
Last night a Waymo vehicle froze on an Austin street after a mass shooting, delaying emergency response.
Note to regulators: Crashing is only one of the ways AVs can harm people.
Je frais que ce soit vrai… (I worry this is true).
All the suffering, morbidity, mortality and financial losses preventable by an inexpensive and effective vaccine.

Mother, doctors call on Newfoundland and Labrador government to expand coverage of RSV shots to all infants
N.L. is one of 4 provinces that only provide coverage for high-risk infants (the others are British Columbia, Alberta and New Brunswick). This is NOT the recommended strategy by NACI or CPS)
When there is a will, there is a way… Bravo Paris!
