This is a pretty big attack on the First Amendment. And an encroachment on universities' powers to decide what protests to allow and who to expel.....

Remarkable - he doesn't deny that the ASIRT review was set up to fail.

Substance toxicity deaths in Alberta in 2020 : review of medical examiner data - Open Government

For four years, the Alberta government has buried the 2020 Medical Examiner's report on Substance Toxicity Deaths in Alberta.

I forced the report out through a freedom of information request.

A complex book for many reasons but an important story in women's history. If you haven't already, take the time to learn about Henrietta Lacks, this Women's History Month. #WomensHistoryMonth

🧵 In November, @zoedodd.bsky.social and I prepared a rebuttal to a Globe Opinion piece calling for forced abstinence of people who use drugs. It conveniently omitted author Rob Tanguay's ownership of Newly Institute, which does psychedelic addiction treatment. 1/

Timely that Canada-owned CP Rail acquired Kansas City Rail, now CPKC - so there exists transcontinental access for shipping connecting Canada-US-Mexico.

This is really extremely bad: withholding urgent public health studies because they’re not convenient for the president’s political narrative.

The most aggravating thing in all this (to me) is the sheer number of you, who believe Black people got high-paying jobs on account of their skin color and not their qualifications. That standards were lowered for us, when the truth is the bars are 10 times higher for us.

Mandatory addiction treatment facility coming to Calgary: Smith - LiveWire Calgary Mandatory addiction treatment facilities are coming to Calgary as part of the Alberta government’s response to the toxic drug crisis. In a statement on Wednesday afternoon, Premier Danielle Smith said...

"Reinventing the residential school system"

Glad to see Dr Monty Ghosh condemning Compassionate Intervention plans, adopting strong words of Dr Esther Tailfeathers.

Forced abstinence cannot coexist with Truth & Reconciliation.

Will grocers in Canada be prevented from hiking costs of non-tariffed food? Because I can see them yanking up costs to just below U.S. products, taking the difference and then acting like the good guys cuz it's still "cheaper."

Teams I lead inspire me everyday. Patients are experts in their health experiences; frontline paramedics are experts in their prof experiences. Diversity of team members’ perspectives, ideas & goals are limitless. My efforts focus on mitigating barriers in the way. #LeadershipPhilosophy #BCEHS50

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
