And this is the government that, going forward, will make it more difficult and expensive for citizens to obtain covid vaccines - even though the cost of providing free vaccines is far lower than the costs incurred in treating patients who contract covid (to say nthg of productivity losses).

23 amendments made to Bill C-5 at midnight last night. To me the most crucial one read, in part, as follows: "The Minister must ensure that a process is established that allows for the active and meaningful participation of the affected Indigenous peoples..." 1/ www.ourcommons.ca/documentview...

Hey. Really quick, let’s talk about Getting Out. By now, I hope you know that moving internationally is not only prohibitively expensive, it’s also just straight up prohibited in a lot of cases. Disabled people, for example, are barred from immigration in pretty much most countries. 🧵

A win! A federal judge has ordered the government to restore hundreds of NIH grants slashed by the Trump administration, ruling the cuts were discriminatory against minorities and LGBTQ individuals. The judge said he’d have to be “blind” not to see the discrimination and declared the cuts illegal.
