So many roles. Looking for and sometimes finding reason and kindness in an unreasonable and unkind time. Look carefully and you will find them too.

We must be crystal clear about a few points. Long Covid is not a "poorly understood neuroimmune disorder" with no biomarkers. It is a widely studied biological medical condition. Pathology spanning basically all body systems is well documented, with damage in situ across organs

Spokesperson for Danielle Smith believes there’s mass vote-rigging in blue states.

Totally normal, non-internet-brainworms-stuff coming from the Government of Alberta.

[Stephano🍁Barberis @HelloStephano]

A new Leger poll today states that 39% of all Albertans would leave the province if it were to separate and 19% would consider leaving. Losing over half of their population would send them to the Stone Age. Businesses will flee and corporations will relocate. Dead economy.

Almost 60 Sickened From Raw Milk In Idaho

If ONLY someone had come up with a way to remove harmful bacteria from milk!!

In Denmark, McDonalds workers make $25 an hour and, if they are over twenty, the company starts paying into a pension plan for them, and in addition they have a full 6 weeks of paid vacation.

Now how much do you think this costs customers? The Economist looked into this and found out that the Big Mac costs 76 cents less than it does here.

Don't believe the lies that raising the minimum wage would force prices to go up.

It's not much of a surprise anymore

Poor health policy costs people their health and their lives. If the federal government won’t protect public healthcare, we won’t have it anymore, people are suffering.

[AJ Punk @SilentSnow89]

This is how the UCP treats rural communities. With contemptful neglect.

Yet these same rural communities keep voting UCP, because God forbid they have a government that would spend money supporting healthcare

[JEeEnEnAA @jennAA2014]

Which begs the question, why is the GoA doing this, again?!

[JEeEnEnAA @jennAA2014]

The public should be angry that evidence and expertise aren’t considered. This is only going to get much worse. And many people won’t have luck on their side.

Just 100 years ago: 1 in 3 children died before reaching their fifth birthday.

[David Shepherd @DShepYEG]

Yes, you read that right.

The UCP rejected the report from the actually independent Electoral Boundaries Commission & struck a committee dominated by their MLAs to draw the maps again.

And those MLAs just appointed a recent UCP donor to work with them.

Shameless. #ableg

More separatist lies debunked: “Citizens in a new Republic of Alberta would have no entitlement to Canadian citizenship in the absence of Canada's consent," said Gerard Kennedy, an associate professor in the faculty of law at the University of Alberta. https://t.co/NLe03iQ1N7

The provincial portion of our property taxes which goes to education, increased dramatically this year, not to fund public education but to fund Danielle Smith’s charter schools. I didn’t vote for this.

[Bob A’fette @fette_a]

Apparently, the mayor of Taber and their city council approved this billboard.

I will be buying my corn from British Columbia’s venders this summer instead.

Vaccine hesitancy caused almost 3,000 deaths in Canada during the COVID pandemic. Now a Conservative MP is continuing to fuel vaccine hesitancy through misinformation and fear mongering.
This is as frightening as it is disgraceful.

[VisuallyBetter @Isuckatpicking]

It's not immigrants taking the part time job away from your kids it's corporate greed.

[crunchyrugger @crunchyrugger]

having dinner at a hotel bar the other night struck up a conversation with a mid-level United Healthcare exec. he told me he puts over $300,000 a year on his company credit card just for entertaining clients. In case you’re wondering why you can’t afford health insurance

[Gil McGowan @gilmcgowan]

The Smith UCP government deliberately crushed Alberta’s then-leading renewable energy industry, at the cost of at least $30 billion in lost investment and thousands of lost jobs. But they’re happy to use public money to promote data centres that many communities don’t want.
