Mountie inspector on the RCMP’s failure to use the Alert Ready system during the Nova Scotia mass murders:
“If we sent out an alert, it potentially could have been catastrophic.”
What were these 22 murders, if not catastrophe? https://t.co/ViR2YfmeGJ

Hey, who is noticing that “post-pandemic normal” is a lot of “I’ve been knocked out by this cold for weeks” and “Sorry, we’ve had to cancel this event!” and “My kids are sick for the second time in two months!” and “Due to staffing shortages…” and “The ER wait was 10 hours!”

Incompetence, wilful ignorance, or malice? Any or all of them feels like gross negligence by a government prioritizing profit over public health. The Higgs government long ago abdicated their responsibility to protect their citizens. Disgraceful, but not entirely unexpected.

Mysterious spike in N.B. deaths in 2021 not due to COVID, health minister says: https://t.co/ZFaQvq1iIN

[Tim Bousquet @Tim_Bousquet]

RCMP officers privately warned their loved ones that a killer was on the loose, but didn’t warn the broader public https://t.co/Th1i8AfnbZ

We wanted to understand how the Roe reversal will affect treatment for things like ectopic pregnancies. So we talked to four unvaccinated firemen at a Sbarro in Staten Island.

[Heather Thomas @HeatherThomasAF]

Well, what was Kavanaugh wearing in front of the protestors? Maybe he was asking for it.

[Dave Heintzman @daveheintzman]

That’s not hard since @TimHoustonNS has left Nova Scotia residents to fend for themselves in a truly disgraceful abdication of his responsibility to anyone who lives in this province. What a colossal failure of leadership, esp from a man who campaigned on ‘fix healthcare’

[Derek Simon @DartmouthDerek]

Moving faster to protect non-resident property owners from taxes than he is to protect Nova Scotia residents from COVID.

As it turns out, the moral arc of the universe only bends toward justice if massive amounts of everyday people decide to yank it in that direction

[Elizabeth @elizabethlgr]

The treatment for an ectopic pregnancy is abortion.

The treatment for a septic uterus is abortion.

The treatment for a miscarriage that your body won’t release is abortion.

If you can’t get those abortions, you die.

You. Die.

Perhaps Constitutional lawyers out there will find an example, but it seems to me this will be the first time a significant Supreme Court precedent will be overturned to remove a right from Americans. How could any US public servant feel good about participating in this?

[Dave Heintzman @daveheintzman]

Oh for God’s sake. There are many things wrong with this typo riddled document, but chief among them is the fact that Canadians do not have a right to free speech. It does not exist in this country. Five minutes looking at the constitution and they’d see that. Alas. 🤷‍♂️

[Raisa Patel @R_SPatel]

I was handed this from one protester: they appear to be seeking an injunction against the vehicle exclusion zone meant to keep bikes and vehicles away from the Hill. Bottom of the page also refers to someone named “Perrier Poilievre”

[Mark Laventure @marklaventure]

Maybe "zero COVID is no longer possible" as our Health Minister just stated, but NOT having the highest level of transmission on the continent sure as Hell is. #nspoli

[Dave Heintzman @daveheintzman]

The most unbelievable part of this is imagining Doug Ford admitting to a a mistake or apologizing. https://t.co/LAmrZPuw80

@drcherylmac The more I learn the more I realize how much more I have to learn! A nice catch 22.

@drcherylmac Having gone back to Dal for a Poli Sci degree, the desire to remain in academia is *strong*

[Dave Heintzman @daveheintzman]

An absolutely disgraceful take, vindicating much of the lambasting of so called journalism around public health reporting. Surprising if you’ve buried your head in the Canadian Shield since 2019 maybe. 🙄

[Waterloo Region Record @WR_Record]

Waterloo Region’s three hospitals were bracing for more COVID-19 patients and affected staff with the pandemic’s latest wave, but the quick rise in both is surprising. https://t.co/BKi1I2VLLp
