Thanks to @moriartylab.bsky.social and the whole COVID-19 Resources Canada team for weekly feedback and for keeping us updated. It’s especially helpful as @phsaofbc.bsky.social says respiratory illness season is over

Past-due opportunity for Novavax production at the Biologics Manufacturing Centre @GovHealthCan @PHAC_QC

Pfizer, Moderna, and Novavax are going to look at their profits and assess demand, as all good companies do. US demand is going to be artificially squashed unless blue states coordinate to circumvent the federal government. So many ways this could go. Canada/EU/UK need to seize the reins.

As a Canadian, I find it appalling that journalists & politicians downplay Trump’s ramblings about annexing an ally & trading partner. Parker Molloy nails it…“Sometimes a piece of journalism is so wildly off-base that it perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with political coverage.”

They helped bring us to this point, but at least they recognize this stupidity for what it is. That's more than I can say for a lot of formerly respected news organizations.

Idiots like Elon Musk confuse being nice with being weak and being mean with being strong. Trump and Musk thought they'd sucker-punch Canada and that was the end of the story. Right now it looks like Canada is playing ice hockey with guys who think they're playing pool.

Looking forward to a comprehensive ventilation program here in BC too @lisabeare.bsky.social @josieosborne.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social

Opinion: This holiday season, let's spread kindness, not COVID We're not hearing much about the virus anymore, but it's the gift that keeps on giving — with long-term effects of notable concern.

It can be simple to protect our and others health — by masking in public with K95 or N95 masks, testing before gatherings, increasing ventilation, and staying home if sick.Not only will this help mitigate the spread of COVID, but also all other respiratory illnesses of the season, like flu and RSV.

Poilievre’s Free Ride to Power Has to Stop | The Tyee No more getting by with glib and shallow answers to these seven basic questions.

Today's essential read for all Canadians.
Without tougher scrutiny by the news media and fiercer rebuttals by political opponents, Poilievre has no reason to change tactics. But with a federal election looming, it’s essential to put his blanket assertions finally to the test.
