10 years already! I stood with one of those 'Voice your Choice' posters, and I still have a yellow 'Voice your Choice' DWDC souvenir scarf. We've come a long way, baby - but we still have a way to go to ensure access to all end-of-life options for everyone. www.dyingwithdignity.ca/blog/carter_...

I will go with either, because I don't want to let the perfect become the enemy of the good. Some Canadian content is better than none. But I didn't know the difference between these labeling phrases.

This is how i have voted for the past few years now - ABC (anybody but conservative). I go with whoever has the best chance to beat the conservative candidate. If the bus isn't gonna stop at where you want to go, you get off at the nearest stop. A tantrum won't get you anywhere.

I'm not a big fan of poetry but this is good, and the rhymes are amusing. 'Power or attorney for personal care' is another name for proxy or substitute decision maker, ie the person you appoint to make medical decisions for you if you are no longer able. www.dyingwithdignity.ca/blog/ode-to-...

25 years ago - who remembers? On NYE I worked midnight shift at the hospital. They had supervisors and engineers on duty, bottled water, and hauled manual blood pressure cuffs out of storage - 'just in case'. Biggest non-event ever. The high-priced help had a drink after midnight and went home. 🤣

What's changed in 80 years? Nothing. No different in Canada either, except the name of the party. Conservatives are the same the world over.

O.M.G. this is me. Covid in Sept 23 pretty much ruined my entire choir season last year. Finally getting over it now. (and I've had ALL the vaccines - 7 doses to date). ENT consult did a scope and said nothing to really see, just long-term inflammation, lots of that in actors and singers...
