I think it might if people understood just how helpful masking can be for liberating hospital beds in Canada and preventing COVID deaths. If 80% of us mask (as we did this time last year) by Feb 3 we could liberate 54,000 hospital beds and prevent 4,000 deaths 🧵

So Its seems the #goodguywithagun cares more about his own ass than protecting children. I wonder how #usa collective psyche will react to this assault on their collective myth of the gunslinging hero. #uvalde #nra podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas…

So seems @LifeLabs are billing for a number of routine formerly covered OHIP tests. Please retweet and let's get what's being charged for? Also anyone know if they donated to Ford?

Police beating back & tasing parents to keep them from stopping an AR15 toting man from killing their children seems to pretty much encapsulate the gun situation in the USA. #Uvalde

When are they going to take the gloves off in the Ontario election with simple, clear (and true) messaging? It’s begging for it, and Ford is vulnerable

If we want to avoid the generational impact of #LongCovid that will lead to cognitive, neurologic, respiratory & other serious functional impairments for so many, it's time to stop trivializing getting infected as no big deal. bit.ly/37tEOPF 22/
