The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

If Danielle Smith did nothing wrong, she should call the inquiry. But she won't. She doesn't want Albertans to know the truth. What we have here is an incompetent government trying to protect itself and trying to run away from its own record. We need a public inquiry. Now.

Ha, I knew it! Carney will have his security clearance before PP. He just said during the Liberal debate that he has already applied for it and he said it was very easy. #CdnPoli #TeamCarney #Canada #Liberal

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives. Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

This is the way.

You first.

I'm pretty sure people who knit entire sweaters are magicians, well really incredibly talented, I never got past the scarf stage.

Could what happened in Idaho to Dr Borrenpohl happen elsewhere? Of course. This is not just about abortion rights in the USA. Silencing of women (and the complicity of onlookers, in the face of gender-based violence) happens around the world, daily. Speak truth to power. youtu.be/wnBHQyUZiws?...

The polar bear in my daughter’s climate change project has broken my heart

Today's grumpy new grandma post: my grandson is 4.5days old. His mum has post birth eclampsia & was treated with iron infusion for anemia. They just got home. Today my husband's sis and her husband are visiting them after travelling and attending a FAMILY REUNION a few days ago. 😢 I have no control

Spent some time today talking to a colleague about the degree to which a measles epidemic has thrown their health system into a tailspin. And yes, this is in Canada. None of this has to happen

Kfir and Ariel Bibas—10 months and 4 years old—were choked to death with the bare hands of Hamas terrorists. Seeing and hearing and feeling the anguish from Jews globally. Where is the anguish from non-Jews? No child should be murdered, ever, anywhere. Don’t answer with, « but what about… »

This made me smile so big. 🥹

A four-year-old boy named "Dominic" surprised his mother by bringing a baby deer home after returning from the woods in the backyard because he considered the deer his friend, and the mother took a picture of them. This happened in Virginia

Political dissension getting suppressed in Alberta. Getting a little dangerous to be an opponent of this gov't. Feels wrong, for a liberal democracy. Que pasa? www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Ok that made me laugh

All of these doctors are correct and they are just now realizing misinformation has real world consequences after denying it for 5 years. It just now dawned on them. Previously they mocked people who worried this way as “fringe” or “hysterical.”

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

let me strongly recommend the flu shot to whoever hasn't gotten one for this season. i just had a *terrible* bout with the flu that almost certainly would have been WAY worse had i not been vaccinated

One of my chat groups has a “Transportation Having Problems” channel where we post train and plane crashes and our friend who was an airplane crash investigator comments and that channel has lots of content these days 😩

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

When a non disabled person gets hurt or seriously ill, they don’t hesitate to go to hospital They have faith they’ll be treated quickly, feel “better” & get to go home When you’re disabled, you learn to avoid hospital at all costs. Your faith in healthcare vanishes & that loss is painful:

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Sorry, not sorry, USA: We are Canadian and will always be Canadian. Happy Flag Day, Canada! #TeamCanada

Local woman wakes up, sends RFK Jr and all his anti vaxo/ pro disease fucko buckos to a wellness farm on Mars to grow their own blue space avocados and share all the wisdom snd viruses amongst themselves and no one else, makes oatmeal.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Canada would be well served if it boosted its vaccine research and production.

First crack in the UCP ranks.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

I have no idea how much they’ll be able to get away with in terms of messing with vaccines, but I will say it’s never a bad idea to be proactive about getting up to date on all your vaccinations!

Remember that the Trump admin hate masks & constantly downplay Covid & other public health threats JD Vance spearheaded a federal ban on mask mandates. RFK Jr is a notorious Covid minimizer. Wear a respirator. Protect yourself AND send a clear message that you’re not buying what they’re selling

So I read all of Mentzelopoulos's lawsuit. A 🧵
