@selinarobinson Your racism is apparent and you need to resign.

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@kshahrooz Try some movement first, or even movement based meditation practices such as Yoga , Qi Gong.

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@Meighon So happy for you! Your interview with Sam was quite moving. I can’t wait to watch this film.

Iran Protests:

50,000 people gathered in Toronto in support of Iranian protesters. 50,000!

Lawyer Kaveh @kShahrooz organized that protest.

He talks about what it's like to be part of a movement like this, and where it goes from here.

#MahsaAmini, 22, died after being severely beaten by #Iran's "morality police". As Iran's president #EbrahimRaisi is scheduled to attend UNGA in NY, countries must not forget Mahsa & the Iranian people. @khamenei_ir @UNHumanRights @UN @MEMOrganization https://t.co/bE5XdIKrQJ

@N1ckSandmann @77Macb When’s your birthday? The moment you took your breath not the moment you were conceived.

[Dr. Dr. Desi (she/her) @native4data]

Is it possible to have community impact (like saving lives impact) while in academia? Bc I know I'm alive for more than arguing w the IRB & publishing articles that only a few folks read. My loved ones keep dying. And it's getting harder to reconcile working in the Ivory Tower.

@ChrisGloverMPP Thank you for your support of the TCM/Acupuncture profession.

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@ChrisGloverMPP Agreed! I am a practitioner and a profession at one of the Acupuncture/TCM colleges @OCTCM. I am worried for the future of our students.

[Chris Glover @chrisglover]

Are you a practitioner of acupuncture or #TCM?

Doug Ford’s Bill 88 may very well have a huge impact on your profession.

I want to hear from you on this issue, email me at: [email protected]

@appleton_banana @CityCynthia @fordnation @celliottability Yup. I wish to become a surgeon by next week. I hear it pays well!

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@CityCynthia Correct! We are 2600 regulated Acupuncturists in the province and we were not consulted, nor were the Acupuncture colleges. How are our students supposed to now pay back OSAP if their future employment and business opportunities disappear due to this bill ?

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@VoteSheenaSharp @AbhijeetMonet @fordnation Exactly. I teach at an Acupuncture/TCM school. We have hundreds of students many of which are recent immigrants who invested years of time and money that are now facing this.

@nikhilgupte @StevenDelDuca Tarot card readers don’t need to know infection control. They also don’t treat people in a health clinic setting, or stick needles in them.

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@nikhilgupte @StevenDelDuca So you want random unlicensed people to be able to do it? How’s that for public safety?

[Bahareh @bshiatsu]

@tomskorupski @StevenDelDuca @fordnation Regulation is not about legitimizing a profession, it’s to protect the public. Ford wants anyone to be able to stick a needle and call it Acupuncture. No proper regulatory body to hold them accountable . This is unacceptable. Most Canadian provinces are regulated as well.

@StevenDelDuca @OntLiberal Thank you for your support. Many thousands of practitioners and their patients are going to be harmed with this bill. There needs to be thorough stakeholder consultation before a huge decision like this is made.
