@Habsfan94Jamie @OC_Transpo @OCTranspoLive Unfortunately no bus number. But we have the bus route, the time and the location so should be able to identify. I have notified @OC_Transpo and now waiting to hear back.

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

@OC_Transpo @OCTranspoLive tell me how you can justify your bus driver’s behaviour. He left two 16 y/o girls stranded downtown, after dark, in -40 degree weather. He waved, gave them a thumbs up as they showed their pass through the glass and drove off. Inhumane much?

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

Confederate flags and swastikas. Hate symbols that represent some of the most evil and shameful of humanity… desecrating war monuments, taking food from the homeless. I’m gutted. How do I explain this to my kids? Is this their world now? How do we stop this craziness?

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

Do the right thing… Please get your booster and limit your interactions. Schools can’t close again. Protect the kids’ mental health.

[Caroline Mandell @cjmandell]

Schools over bars. Schools over gyms. Schools over concerts. Schools over malls & parties & indoor dining. Kids over everything.

It’s ok to not be ok. Let’s talk about mental health. Keep the conversation going. #PandemicHeroes2021 gala. #ConvoPlate. @PaulHansellFdb

@drcopps Find out what they are afraid of with regards to vaccines. Truly listen. Don’t judge. Be empathetic. Acknowledge the fears. Address the fears.

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

Disappointed with NACI’s statement. Waiting for an mRNA vaccine is not an option. Vaccinate as many as possible. Ontario is on fire. The inconsistent messaging could cost lives.

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

@DFisman No. Just no. Ontario is on fire. Vaccines have to go in ASAP. Waiting for a mRNA vaccine that may or may not come is not an option. Lives will be lost.

[Catherine Pound @CatherineMPound]

Ontario please watch this. Thank you Dr Barrett. Ontario doctor describes how COVID-19 'catastrophe' is affecting most vu... https://t.co/grhwmkvxn1 via @YouTube

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be in a situation where an ICU doc has to decide whether my loved one’s life is worth trying to save, or whether that ventilator should go to someone else... We know what to do. We just have to find it within ourselves to do it. (2/2)

#covidrant Ottawa people please stay home. We have 92 hospitalizations due to Covid in Ottawa today. 29 in ICU. When things were bad last year, we went up to 62 in hospital with 20 ICU. We have not crested yet. This is real, people. (1/2)

So incredibly sad...
