99% of pediatricians vaccinate their children fully and on-schedule.
If we were part of a shady cabal simply trying to push vaccines on the unsuspecting to make money…
… why would we do that? #vaccineswork
I hear this a lot, that property taxes mean you're always "renting" your land from the government, but it relies on a flawed framework. Property taxes aren't a payment for the right to possess land. They are a payment for the services provided to that land: roads, police and the legal system, emergency services, schools, etc.
You don't stop paying homeowners' insurance premiums once you own your property outright, and these government services -- which are vital to the continued enjoyment of your property -- don't suddenly become free once your mortgage is paid off, either.
In 2014, I wrote that the hard right wants to replace Canada’s centrist media with a universe of partisan outlets mimicking professional journalism. This has already happened on AM radio and the Internet. T knowing this, “defund the CBC” is more frightening. #cdnmedia

Canada's #pesticides regulator is broken. Health Canada's regulatory agency is too cozy with industry and the only way to break those ties is to blow it up and start over. @adriennetanner writes for @natobserver #cdnpoli#neonics https://t.co/TVsF3zaYgn
Jesus H Christ:
- 36% of young (18-34) Canadian men would vote for Trump over Harris.

Today. Not in 2016, when they might not have understood fully what he was about. But now, after all that he has said and done since, including this horrific election campaign. In Canada.
Universities must respect peaceful activism & revise repressive policies targeting pro-Palestine solidarity movement.

For one year, we have witnessed an epic ideological battle between the forces of human rights on the one side, and the forces of political Zionism on the other. These two ideologies are diametrically opposed, and one cannot prevail without the demise of the other. In a time of genocide, we must all choose. Neutrality in the face of oppression is complicity. Equality or supremacy. Freedom or apartheid. Liberation or colonialism. Choose.
This is Canada’s media landscape. You can win national & international journalism awards, work at the CBC for nearly a decade, both as host & producer, write opinion pieces @globeandmail, yet some blowhard from The Post will call you a “self proclaimed journalist.”
