This woman has an elite level understanding of male psychology. I was today years old when I realized that what she says is true. Men love quests.

Such composure from HRH. By comparison, I bawled my eyes out when I revealed my cancer diagnosis. Please be kind & respectful to the Wales’. Unless you’ve heard those words “you have cancer”, you can’t fully understand what they’re going through. I send HRH my support. #HRHcancer

University of Calgary economist @bcshaffer and his colleagues wrote a detailed paper last year showing conclusively that it was “economic withholding” — not carbon taxes, gas prices or coal phaseouts — that was the real cause of skyrocketing power prices. sites.ualberta.ca/~econwps/2…

Yesterday in Saskatoon, to build cross-cultural bridges and for One Love, it was my pure honour to dance Punjabi Bhangra with Buffalo Boy productions, a First Nations dance group representing many Tribal Nations of North America. @DonaldSpeidel1 - YouTube: youtu.be/PEYNTvN_Q8w

Here's a 1-minute video showing--in the words of visualization hero @EdwardTufte--the "compared to what" factor for today's amazing @NASAWebb image. Thanks to the @WWTelescope for making this possible, and @ADavidWeigel. I only wish @NASA and @POTUS had shown the image this way!

OVER 126,000 active cases of #COVID19AB... that's what @cspotweet calculates based on @CMOH_Alberta saying during delta we only caught 1 in 6 tests with PCR (and it's expected we are catching even less with omicron). Asked minister @JasonCoppingAB why no new restrictions?

BREAKING: FDA advisers voted 17-0 (1 abstain) in favor of authorization of the Pfizer #covid19 #vaccine for 5 to 11 year olds. This is absolutely the right decision. Many parents will be relieved have a vaccine to protect their children and allow a return to pre-pandemic lives.

98% of Portugal's eligible population is vaccinated. And they have almost 0 daily deaths. Remarkable.

Portugal is among the world’s leaders in vaccinations, with roughly 86% of its population fully inoculated. Vice Adm. Henrique Gouveia e Melo, who turned the country’s vaccine campaign around, said there was a key to his success: Keep politics out of it. nyti.ms/3iom4nb

As an Alberta doc, I have had multiple pts get infected more than once (w/ illness, & swabbed +, even one that swabbed negative between infections). Yes, infection typically offers imperfect immunity. Vaccines improve that immunity. Nothing is perfect. Every measure helps

I opened for you and @patriciaconroy several years ago. I’ll never forget that summer and that experience. Your reputation amongst the #CCMA and your fans has always been second to none. Please don’t tarnish your good name now. Get educated and get the shot. ✌🏼 #ABCOVID #AbLeg

An Alberta doctor told me there is no medical need for me to be vaccinated as a COVID-recovered person. I’m not an anti-vaxxer. Does anyone else who has immunity from prior COVID infection feel unseen? I have questions. Join the conversation on Facebook. bit.ly/3tNLTBv

For anyone racing out to book appts with their doctor to get a vaccine exemption, let me warn you now: Our regulatory college notified us today that there are virtually no medical reasons for a medical exemption. The answer is 99% likely to be no. #GetVaccinated #COVID19AB

I cried leaving work this morning, the condition we left the ICU was terrifying. But NO, I couldn't stay to help. I have to be back tonight, and once again under staffed and stretched too thin. Mental health days? Don't get those. Because they cost YOUR life. #ABNurses #CovidAB

This weekend, pls don’t host a holiday party or family gathering bc you think you won’t get caught or you don’t think anyone is sick. That is how the virus spreads & outbreaks happen. We need every AB to follow all measures to bring #COVID19AB cases down. teapaw.org/YourAlberta/status/133…

It is vital that our health system continues to deliver the care that Albertans’ need. We currently ask all cases of COVID-19 to isolate at home for 10 days or until symptoms resolve, whichever is longer. (1/4)

If your child is sick but isn't a close contact and hasn’t tested positive for #COVID19AB, you as a parent aren't required to stay home. You should monitor yourself for symptoms, wash your hands often and follow all the other normal precautions alberta.ca/covid-19-testing-…

The family of Don Lewis, the man many believe to have been murdered and fed to tigers by Carole Baskin, ran a commercial looking for justice for Don during tonight’s Dancing with the Stars premiere featuring Carole Baskin. WHATTA move.
