I see that Danielle Smith and ever other oil and gas loving Conservative in Canada is sharing this latest exercise in spurious correlations. Let's pull it apart in a thread, shall we? 🧵
At least $176 billion. That is the value of all the proposed resource projects on this map that have died under the radical anti-development agenda of the Liberal government of Trudeau, Freeland, Guilbeault & Carney. Now, we are more reliant than ever on the U.S. market. Fire

Let’s talk about why emergency departments are full. We’re going to use Mary as an example. Mary is a completely fictional patient. Let’s say Mary is 72. Her family doctor retired 5 years ago. She’s in the ED after a fall “weak and dizzy” (we see this a lot.)

My images are being shadow banned. Shadow banning, also known as stealth, ghost, or hellbanning, is the practice of quietly restricting a user's content in an online community, making it less visible without the user knowing, whether done by an individual or an algorithm.

Holocaust denial is not “popular history”. It is anti-semitism, pure and simple. Nor is it “an interesting perspective”. It is a despicable lie.
Actually, this is pro-Nazi propaganda, including, “Churchill was the chief villain of WW2” and Hitler “didn’t want to fight.” No serious or honorable person would support or endorse this type of garbage.

Hey @fordnation @SylviaJonesMPP In the past 2wks (336h) I spent 300 hours on ER call then drove 6h home. Tomorrow I will drive 13h then be on ER call for 24h again. How much harder do you suggest I work? Healthcare system is surviving by personal sacrifice. Action is needed!

We live in a time increasingly resembling the second half of the 1930s. I couldn't live with myself with the knowledge I didn't do more to stop another Hitler. In light of the Republican wavering and in memory of Navalny I will give $100 towards FPV drones for Ukr for every RT.

This pause to reflect, re-engage and seek solutions to training that support comprehensive family medicine is important. If aligned to better, joy-enabling work environments at the end of training, then family physicians can be the the strength the system needs.

“Our work will shift to expanding engagement with key interest holders.” Real and thorough engagement before huge decisions are made is usually a good strategy.

The anti-vaccination and anti-science movements are killing thousands of innocent people. Why don't government agencies and professional groups speak up?

My hospital has six units on outbreak from Covid, and infection control has instituted mandatory masking and eye protection on all of them. That’s science. Despite skyrocketing community transmission we have not prophylactically instituted a hospital wide policy. That’s politics.

A strong argument that most suicides will be prevented by means restrictions ie limiting gun access and further that means substitution lacks validity
