Before they separate, Albertans should really take a good hard look at the US deal they forced on Venezuela. A separate Alberta would be Venezuela North to the USA, there to be raped and pillaged for resources “at cost”.

Except it’s not "voluntary or dignified" when instead of being offered the supports and treatments people need instead doctors and nurses are suggesting to patients that MAID is either their best or only option—this is called coercion through denial of adequate care.

This👇 Excellent reporter Govt has been in power three yrs and still the ministers have no clue how beds they need or are being built… They just get up there and re-announce beds that aren’t even in the plan to plan stages…
Alberta govts & AHS have known for at least 10 years that Edmonton is dangerously short on hospital beds. I wrote this article about it 3 years ago. The UCP cancelled the South Edmonton Hospital and started an Alberta is Calling campaign. #ableg ctvnews.ca/edmonton/article/…

Last night, with less than 24 hrs of review the Mayor and 6 members of #yyccc tried to pass the first step in privatization of #yyc drinking water utility with zero public consultation. Every one who is concerned about the privatization of drinking water should write their Cllr

If you’re attempting to use AI to edit someone’s photos in a sexual manner without their consent…. You’re a sexual predator. Hope that helps. Fuck you.

The reality is, both of the Human Development metrics (life expectancy and years of schooling) are largely Provincially controlled. Canada falling down this list reflects years of criminally underfunded healthcare & education by Conservative governments in AB, SK, and ON.

Every few months, some ER doctor goes viral for saying you need to take it very seriously when a male patient says his wife made him come in, and I'm infuriated that women are considered reliable ONLY when they're saying a man needs care, but not when she needs care herself. 🙃

#CovidIsNotOver This is my 15th semester teaching RN and NP students about Covid 19 pathophysiology. Not a lot has changed except for how much damage we now know the virus causes. It still baffles me that people don’t know it’s airborne, don’t know the risks. 1

Today, we release our new qualitative research report focused on the lived experiences of trans and non-binary youth in Alberta. It’s important to remember that these are the voices that we should be listening to and supporting. #abpoli #ableg Read: macewan.ca/c/documents/dr-kr…

So, autistic people are more likely to have temperature regulation issues than nonautistic people, and I feel like this isn't talked about enough. (It has to do with the size of the hypothalamus)

I was an ableist asshole when I first became a teacher. Because that’s what I was taught! In my defense, academic institutions told me a strict attendance policy was required. What changed my perspective & my assessment criteria? Disabled students 🧵

It rained for a few minutes in Gaza this morning. This is how around a million forcibly displaced Palestinians in makeshfit tents experienced it. Israel's genocide continues before the world's very eyes, the suffering persists, and not a single action...

Just a reminder that our political and media classes reward certain people and certain ideologies through incentives that are both open and hidden, creating a cycle of worsening conditions and an aggressive defense of the status quo that regularly normalizes authoritarianism.

Okay lemme tell y'all I am worried about the increasing number of food recalls, especially of cheap or pre-prepared food. This is a disability issue. Too poor to throw out/buy better, too tired to do all the chopping, and too many dietary needs to eat safe.
