I was so thrilled to see your sky pumpkins. I have tried and failed at this and was ready to give up, but maybe one more try in another location? I want to walk through the squash/pumpkin tunnel.

UK preferred, but not required. Disabled-led social enterprise that employs disabled transcriptionists and editors looking for sales expertise.

Hope folks feel less alone today, that people join with others to take further and deeper actions, and that everyone fights like hell to protect those most vulnerable to this regime.

Dear Ezra Klein, Bodily Autonomy Isn’t a Bargaining Chip Let's see if you're willing to walk the talk

Dear Ezra Klein, bodily autonomy is not a bargaining chip. What rights are you willing to give up? Let’s see you walk the talk. The burger is on me. open.substack.com/pub/vajenda/...

Ending home mail delivery is an acute attack on entrepreneurs, freelancers and gig workers who work from home. We need mail services at home when we work from home and operate businesses from home!

Liberal government frees Canada Post to end home delivery, close some post offices | CBC News With Canada Post on track to lose $1.5 billion in 2025 and contract discussions between the union and the corporation stalled, the federal government is embarking on a modernization plan it says will ...

Seems like a good time to remind people that Canada Post will deliver any piece of mail to federal elected officials for FREE.

No stamp necessary!

Just a reminder in case you, oh I dunno, wanna send your elected officials a sternly worded letter a day for a year or something.

Demand a better deal for workers

Families can’t afford more delays. PM @markjcarney – it’s time to respect the Pharmacare Act and deliver a universal, public Pharmacare system for all. share.canadianlabour.ca/s/XjRSatWA

OK, fellow Ontarians, can someone tell me who benefits from Ontario civil servants being forced into unsafe offices 4 or 5 days per week?

Detriments:
- air pollution
- traffic congestion
- cost of space rental, maint, etc.

Benefits to taxpayers?
Anyone?

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has released a draft standard requiring masks (like N95s) in health care settings to stop airborne infections.

There is a strong attempt to push back against this, so need your public comments to get this through: publicreview.csa.ca/Home/View/22...

I've had some success with using washing soda and powdered peroxide bleach in each load. For really persistent issues, I recently learned that Lysol has a liquid laundry deodorizer that's unscented. I get them all from well.ca

This is a sign that they're really fresh, so good news? When eggs peel easily, they're likely 7-10 days old.

The United States is much less safe for 2SLGBTQIA+ people - and Canada's immigration and refugee procedures need to adapt to the new reality.
