Hospitals’ use of 'for-profit' agencies too costly, gutting provincial health care, study says www.thewhig.com/news/hospita...

When these cuts were announced, they were told, "People will die as a result." They pressed forward anyway and they did. At least 27 dead.

“Tornado warnings were delayed because of reduced staff. Those critical moments — a midnight warning to your phone waking you up, giving you precious seconds to find shelter — came too late for some. The risk of these cuts creating this exact problem was known before last night.”

*Conservatives, dropping a 25-point in two months and losing their lock on a majority government as Donald Trump threatens to decimate the Canadian economy* “What if we talked about eating bugs?

Poilievre drew 5,000 people to his rally in Surrey and 3,500 to his rally in Winnipeg. Big numbers Bigger numbers: in 2021, the winning candidate in Surrey Centre got 15,753 votes (a Liberal). In Winnipeg ridings, it was between 14,000 and 22,000 votes (mix of Conservatives, NDP and Liberal).

People are changing the labels on Wayne G's wine: "a merlot that is sad and 2 faced" "as weak as the name-sakes moral fibre." There is a reason why Canadians dominate comedy - we are wickedly funny. And when push comes to shove we play for keeps (ie. Kharmalov's ankle). Sucks to be you Wayne.

Inviting O'Leary to speak on a serious radio show on this very serious issue is somewhere in between incompetent and treasonous.

If you want to share your concerns with CBC about the “51st state” Cross-country Eff-up, I’m told the emails to use are [email protected] and [email protected] for the ombudsperson and editor in chief respectively

Oh FFS. Must we produce the show for you? The question is: What should Canada be doing to prepare for economic and potentially real war with a fascist US? OR What response do you expect from Canadian politicians to the threat of annexation?

If you're trying to decide if you should cancel that trip to America this year (yes, you can do it!), I humbly suggest you consider visiting Canada's beautiful and vastly under-appreciated East Coast. Here's some reasons why... 🧵

Due to some building lease negotiations that are well above my pay grade, the rent on my woodshop might be drastically increasing this summer. I may have to leave unless I find some more tenants? Anyone out there in #Vancouver looking for woodwork space? I love my space and don’t want to lose it!

Musk reportedly spent $40M on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here’s how we would’ve spent that $$: 🏈Purchased HIV treatment from U.S. pharma companies to keep 1M pp alive for 1 year. Tell Congress to youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8 #saveforeignaid and #standwithUSAID

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

I realize now that I have a “trade deficit” with the store across the street. I walked over and bought a jug of milk. The store is abusing me and I’m tired of subsidizing it by buying something at a fair price that I want. I’m going to apply a tariff that will raise the future price of milk for me.

"Sins against charity are sins and therefore immoral no less than are sins against justice. Christian morality does not recommend that we not offend against charity. It obliges us under pain of sin not to offend against charity." — George Dunne, SJ, 1945 www.commonwealmagazine.org/sin-of-segre...

With everything so seemingly terrible these days & no sign of anything remotely hopeful in the near future, I thought you might need this photo of a baby giraffe.

Taking this to heart.
