@drjengunter.bsky.social - tell your friends! www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...

Pierre Poilievre no longer entitled to live at public mansion: Privy Council Office Poilievre ineligible to live at Stornoway after losing his own seat

There are 77 currently-approved drugs in the US that can only be prescribed with extra care and precautions, because their risks might outweigh their benefit to patients. Pharmacists can't get updated info about how to dispense some of these drugs after the FDA RIF. cen.acs.org/safety/drug-...

The WHI is supposedly restored, but we have lost the contraception bible and this story is not getting enough attention vajenda.substack.com/p/the-whi-is...

Oh

I think the Conservatives are usually one and done if their leader doesn’t win the election, they are gone. While he might parachute into another riding, I think he’ll be done. I could be wrong, but there are likely other chomping at the bit.

TRUMP: He had MS-13 on his knuckles, tattooed! MORAN: That was photoshopped TRUMP: Terry, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime. I picked you. But you're not being very nice. (Can't post the clip here because of @bsky.app's daily video limit but the text tells you what you need to know)

There are few things as cost effective as Narcan, especially in a country where (entirely preventable) opioid overdoses have been a leading cause of death for years. For every 6 kits distributed 1 OD is prevented. The $56M in this grant trained >66K people and distributed >282,500 kits in 2024 alone

If I wanted to destroy what is good about the the US, diminish its prestige and import in the world, and increase the suffering of all people, these are the types of things I would do.

In case anyone is looking

One result I'm not seeing get a lot of attention: Aaron Gunn won. The guy who front-the most extreme parts of Poilievre's social and public safety agenda (he directed the "doc" Vancouver is Dying) will be heading to Ottawa.

Congratulations @brucefanjoy.bsky.social you put in the work for the people of Carleton!!!!!

Have they called Carleton for @brucefanjoy.bsky.social ?

Go @brucefanjoy.bsky.social

I guess there are results trickling in from Newfoundland newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/fe...

Oh

I'm old enough to remember when Rodrigo's team wouldn't let abortion funds hand out Plan B at shows

I am in the UK so not going to likely be able to stay up for the election results. I am so nervous and will likely have a terrible sleep ☹️

Here we go. A major conference on antimicrobial resistance (GAMRIC) scheduled for later this year has been moved from Washington DC to London. Email from the organizers: "In order to maximise global participation..." (NB that they say nothing about moving *from* DC. But it WAS in DC.) 🧪

The stop work orders affect the development of an intranasal vaccine for COVID-19 and an intravenous shot for immunocompromised people. cen.acs.org/pharmaceutic... 🧪

The world’s longest-running diabetes trial has led to more than 200 scientific publications and collected hundreds of thousands of samples, which serve as a sort of time capsule of America’s health. The project was terminated by the Trump Administration.

Some employees at the National Institutes of Health say federal funding cuts at the agency have slowed or halted some work on childhood cancer therapies, dementia, and stroke. An NIH insider, who asked us to conceal his identity due to his concern over reprisal, spoke about the impact of the cuts.

You have to wonder what Mark Carney's other two wishes were after rubbing that bottle

As Fran Lebowitz said, “You do not know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump”

Your lack of reading comprehension is showing

People in states with abortion bans are twice as likely to die during pregnancy www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

PLEASE CALL More than 5,000 workers die from job injuries and 135,000 workers die from chronic occupational diseases annually.

Hey Canada, vote accordingly

The New York Times confirms that Twitter is nothing more than the rigged playpen of a billionaire who lies daily about loving free speech. I think it possible that Elon Musk is the single most pathetic human being alive.

This is about Canada but it sets out how the forced birth agenda everywhere, with its deadly consequences, is disguised as protecting life.

“Why does abortion rule them all? It is the canary in the coal mine. When a government thinks it can criminalize abortion, it’s a way to “other” half the population, …., an important part of fascism. Once one human right can be taken away, others quickly follow.”

My fellow Canadians... "Once you concede even a little with abortion, you have conceded it all; it’s just a matter of time. I have watched this unfold over the past 30 years in the U.S., so please, don’t let me be the Canadian abortion Cassandra."

Please read. Dr. Jen has laid it all out, clearly and succinctly.

The Conservative Party will end public funding for university research on "woke" topics, according to its platform released this week. The platform doesn't define "woke" — but the party has increasingly used the term to attack the Canadian government’s climate policy.

Tell me about Bill C-311 in 2023. I’ll wait.

I am deceased 🤣
