I tweet about parenting, culture (MCU geek, SFF), food, music, tech. Lately a lot of politics+covid. I'm mainly focused on Canada and US.

Canada's Disability Benefits are less than adequate. Members of Parliament are looking to change that with Bill C-22 Sign this petition to show your support! act.leadnow.ca/bill-c-22-hoc…

So, remember when I said the Special Advisory Committee on C19 was “the force behind our Cdn pro-infection train?" Well, now I think the "Industry Strategy Council" established by @ISED_CA in May, 2020 was the force that drove them all. Here's the who, what & why… 🧵A thread.

CMOs and Medical Directors, physicians and faculty, if it's not good for patients, SPEAK UP! Walk out! Use your voice, exercise your power! Too many lives are at stake. Physicians, your politeness is DEADLY. /end

Breaking News: Taliban issued a new ruling in Balkh province, Afghanistan, stating that women are not allowed to visit male doctors !! And, no education to women as well, so no female doctors either !! #Afghanistan #Taliban xitter.cf/i/spaces/1rmGPkDbmQdKN

“You be good. I love you.” -@kyliu99 The Great Silence was such a great mix of detachment, affection and sadness
Thanks @imaginedragons for spending 171 minutes with me in 2022. My kids couldn’t stop listening to Believer. #SpotifyWrapped open.spotify.com/artist/53Xh…
Comedy gold from regrettable behaviour. H/T @kaj33
Voldemort doing a dramatic reading of Queen Lisa Barlow’s hot mic moment! Shaking! #RHOSLC
"The system is crashing. Wait times are at record highs, surgeries are being cancelled, ERs are closing & pediatric ICUs are above capacity," today Ontario's 5 largest healthcare unions joined forces to send a message to the Ford government: "your plan is failing miserably."

What?! 😫
And with that.... the Ford government shuts down debate on #Bill23 so they can leave early for the weekend. It's 3pm on Thursday & we were expecting to be debating at least for another 3 hours. Bill 23 harms affordability, city budgets, the Greenbelt & farmland. Just awful.
Pediatric ICU at > 127% capacity. >50% of kids ventilated. Surgeries cancelled. Community partners at maximum capacity and being supported virtually as no space at Sick Kids.

Some great commentary of @TEDTalks whitewashing of Musk.

Every time I had to write a headline for a talk by some rich white guy who decided he was going to cure all the diseases in Africa after he took one trip there, I wanted to gouge my eyes out. xitter.cf/TheZaneSimon/status/15…

Premier Doug Ford says unions should believe his promise because unions have “never had a better partner” than his government. #onpoli #onted
Wow.
Broken record: TWO nurses to THIRTY-TWO patients on a medicine floor. Let no one tell me that patients are receiving the care they need. They are not. Dangerous things are happening which we cannot tweet about. This is no longer healthcare. Ontario. Canada.
This is why all the unions need to come together here, not just @CUPEOntario. I am so glad to have @maritstiles as my MPP. #onpoli
Replying to @dkingofABC
The Government of Ontario has decided that, in this instance & going forward, they can deal with every political issue through the lens of isolated, frightened, & demeaned ‘interest’ groups. It is time for the people of Ontario to remember the words of Martin Niemoller. #onpoli
So @fordnation announced a massive surplus while our hospitals are in a major crisis due to lack of funding.
