If you are an employee of Veterans Affairs Canada, and think that you provide a service to veterans who served this country, no matter the circumstance, or the duration, you are sadly mistaken. VAC is no more than a glorified insurance company with a failed veteran clientele.
Today we observe, not “celebrate”, Orange Shirt Day. It is our Remembrance Day. This day represents many lost children and widespread intergenerational trauma for our communities. Its a time to learn and reflect. #EveryChildMatters
4 days until my hearing! It's time to put evidence on record, and hope for a just outcome. Haven't had many of those in the past 7 years.
I could not do this if it weren't for public support. $718k+ in public funds spent (and some they won't disclose) and counting...
So incredibly proud to be included in events such as the book launch for @FearLoathingBTX hosted by @DrNancyOlivieri The Occassional Human Sacrifice. Courageous individuals doing what is right. I am in good company.
In 1996 Barry Sherman threatened lawsuits to try to prevent me informing patients re risks of a drug. It got worse from there.
This🔥book @FearLoathingBTX would have provided a guidebook.

I was honoured to speak to @CTVCalgary about @CanPraxis and Regent. A phenomenal program for vets and first responders living with #PTSD. Please help, if you can.

@Martyupnorth_2 A Guelph Police officer caught assaulting a teen, handcuffed to a hospital bed, earned $100k/year for 6 years, while investigation and hearings went on. He was allowed to “resign” instead of being fired. Likely to preserve his pension and benefits.
Ah, the sweet irony of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's vacation debacle in Jamaica – it's a story ripe with hypocrisy and a perfect illustration of the elite's double standards. First, let's set the scene: Trudeau, Canada's poster boy for progressive politics, finds himself stuck in Jamaica because his plane breaks down. Not once, but twice in recent months! But hey, maybe he can enjoy an extended stay in the Caribbean, considering he's done precious little for Canada anyway.
Trudeau's office quickly jumps to clarify that his family vacation in Jamaica was 'at no cost'. How magnanimous, right? But let's cut to the chase. The real joke here is Trudeau's attempt to make us believe there are no strings attached to his so-called "free" vacation. Remember the SNC-Lavalin scandal? That's the reason Canadian companies like Bombardier have such strict anti-bribery rules. Yet, here's Trudeau, seemingly above it all, accepting perks that would have any employee fired on the spot.
And here's the kicker: the Trudeau family's trip to Jamaica, which the Prime Minister’s Office claims was approved by the ethics commissioner, cost a hefty sum - all because of additional travel, security, and personnel expenses. Yet, Trudeau has the gall to say he'll reimburse the “equivalent” of a commercial airline ticket for his personal travel. A drop in the ocean compared to the total expense burdened on the Canadian taxpayer.
This incident isn't just about a broken plane or a lavish vacation; it's a glaring example of the "do as I say, not as I do" attitude that permeates Trudeau's administration. While Canadian companies are bending over backward to adhere to anti-bribery rules, Trudeau seemingly waltzes above these standards, unscathed and unaccountable.
Let's give a sarcastic round of applause for Prime Minister Trudeau. He's doing a fantastic job – of showing exactly what's wrong with our political elites. They live in a world where rules are for the little people, and the concept of accountability is as foreign as a Canadian winter is to Jamaica. Keep it up, Trudeau, you're doing great (wink, wink)

Had a great day at @UofT speaking to Criminology students about oversight of #policing in #Ontario and my attempts to hold police leadership #accountable. Education is the catalyst for change.
This, from a public agency that has spent over $635k to fight a former officer with #PTSD. They are fighting to enforce an #NDA that doesn’t exist. Someone please tell me how they are upholding the public interest? Checked in. ☑️
