“It funds work that makes no sense like giving CT scans to homeless people” The research was to address the fact that unhoused people have a mortality rate for lung cancer that’s more than 2x that of housed people. CT is the gold standard for lung cancer screening. Doesn’t make sense to him, though

Every time a fascist threat appears, the appeasers rush to comply in advance. You just don't expect the national broadcaster to be among them "Dear Americans, how do you feel about violently annexing your long-standing friend and ally?" is not the type of conversation I want my tax dollars going to.

This is brutal

why are you legitimizing this ridiculous man's ludicrous imperialist ambitions and desires as if it is some kind of normal political issue? What he is proposing is a hostile invasion of a sovereign nation-state, YOUR nation-state. are you this hungry for ratings?

Doug Ford promised to end hallway medicine. But Ontario’s ER wait times have gotten worse in the past three years, confidential report shows Patients visiting ERs in the past three years waited longer than they did in the previous 13 years. www.thestar.com/news/gta/dou...

After repeatedly minimizing the threat of Covid why not do the same with the ‘51st state’ comments?! Canadians know where they stand on this, there have been opinion polls, changes in consumer behaviour, anthem booing. Pretty sure we don’t still need to talk about this.

The phrasing moves the overton window. You're an intelligent individual so I have to believe you understand that but it gets you clicks and ratings. Disgraceful.

20 years ago Vancouver might have had 10,000 pages of news in print per week (with dailies and weeklies). I’d be surprised if it’s 500 now.

"the cost of living (which is an insane phrase)" - this line in this video keeps rolling around in my head like some fucked up marble. Why do humans have to pay to be alive?? It doesn't have to be this way & we all know it but we have to pretend that we don't so a few guys can be obscenely rich.

The Canadian establishment that lost its mind over a protest passing by Mount Sinai hospital has been entirely quiet over a Canadian company selling Nazi T-Shirts for the English world's most famous, out Nazi. I wrote about this and asked the question: why? noraloreto.substack.com/p/instrument...

Normalizing is complicity. The overlap between folks who did this with the pandemic and are now doing it with talk of annexation is striking.

Your regular reminder that the more often you own your mistakes, the easier it gets. It is like any muscle-- work it more and it gets stronger. All people mess up, and sometimes we do so publicly. It's not the end of the world to acknowledge that we missed the mark; it's how we clean up.

Fantastic to see 🏳️‍⚧️ ✊🏻 Gender neutral bathroom doors should have a picture of a toilet, not a person. What the room is for not who the room is for. We already know who it's for - people who need to use the bathroom.

I have a lot of new followers that are following Lakota Man. Please block him and uplift legit Indigenous voices - there are Bsky feeds out there (Indigisky, indigiskeeters) that have some amazing Indigenous voices and perspectives to learn from. This guy isn't it.

just bought a bunch of stickers

Israel leads the world in torturing and murdering children, imprisoning these children and their families on their own land, and every conversation should start with that www.dci-palestine.org/8_year_old_p...

A little FYI to those who, like me, have been dealing with Long COVID.

This is astounding. It shows Albertans paid double - sometimes triple! - for surgeries at private surgical facilities connected to friends of the UCP than through AHS. And the Premier’s staff & Health Minister allegedly pressured & then fired the CEO of AHS when she asked questions about them.

🚨BDS UNDER ATTACK Dear supporters, our account on X (formally known as Twitter) has been hacked in an attempt to discredit our movement and silence Palestinian voices. Malicious content is now being posted to our X account.

BREAKING: The City of Sydney Council (Australia) has become the first New South Wales Council to adopt a BDS motion. We call on people across the world to escalate pressure on their governments to end all forms of direct or indirect complicity with genocidal Israel. #SanctionsNow #MilitaryEmbargo

The man at the top doing bad things was not doing them fast enough?? If Trump was a fictional villain, editors would be saying to the writers whoa slow your roll there, let's not get too crazy. 🤯

Hah, so the VPD are patting themselves on the back for the success they've had with their police initiative to lower crime in the DTES. A couple of problems though... 1. Violent crimes like assault started falling in JULY of that year, before "Project Brighthaven" began. vpd.ca/news/2025/02...

This is BIG. It's not everyday that journalists get an apology from the RCMP.

Did we just feel an earthquake in Vancouver?
