I've just seen some staggering data on how badly infections are affecting urgent care here *now*. It's hard to comprehend. It's hard to get your head round it. You need to see it to believe it. 👀

We crossed quite the tragic landmark on Measles cases in Ontario this week: 1000 cases in this outbreak. I thought my clinical experience 🌍 was unique & that I’d never have to see measles cases in Canada, where it was previously eliminated. Now this lethal childhood disease seems has a foothold.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

“That Canadians aren’t being supported through known complications of infection is a crisis of the moment, of 2025 – not 2020.”

A pro-life government?

Call me old fashioned, but I don’t think provincial leaders should be working with hostile foreign govts to interfere in a federal election to get their preferred party elected whose “perspective would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America” This is traitorous stuff.

Thanks for saying it out loud, Danny. @thebreakdownab.bsky.social #daniellesmith #pierrepoilievre #canada

If you're critical of the US government and you are planning to cross the US border any time soon, today is a good day to review EFF's border search pocket guide: www.eff.org/document/eff...

There’s no “o” in fentanyl…

Under this theory, Marco Rubio can expel Canadians who say “you should stop threatening to annex Canada.”

Maybe I’m a softie but I really do feel something for people like Laken Riley’s family or the volleyball player, who have allowed their personal pain to be weaponized to harm millions of innocent people

All this unprecedentedness is so unprecedented. We need another word...

Love this — and going to share it widely

Doug Ford has fallen short. Vote for change. As comforting as continuity may seem, what Ontario needs is change. Liberals, NDP, Greens: take your pick. A vote for any is a vote for a better Ontario. #StarEditorial
