As one of Sask’s film “refugees” I can’t even articulate the anger at seeing this govt pat them selves on the back for this. Great productions lost to other jurisdictions & many skilled crew gone. Plus it’s only generating about half of its pre-cut $150m. #skpoli
The Saskatchewan Feature Film and Television Production Grant has not only created 370 new jobs in the last year, but has generated over $80 million in economy activity.

"Bell, what is your plan?...What will you do not just for Lisa but for us all." I joined many others in signing this open letter in @globeandmail to Bell Canada about @BellMediaPR's "business decision" to fire Lisa LaFlamme in prime of her career. Have a read & RT if you support.
man if I get COVID you bet your ass I’m getting a PCR test. in a year when I’m still sick from it I’m not letting this government tell me I never actually had it.
Almost two years into a pandemic and instead of making it easier for workers to stay home when sick, we’re changing the rules to make it easier for employers to make you come in if you’ve caught or have been exposed to COVID.
Join us for a virtual candlelight vigil on #December6 at 5:00 PST to honour and #RememberThe14 female engineering students and staff who were murdered at École @Polytechnique in Montreal in 1989 solely because they were women.

@NDPStephanie Not that I necessarily agree with the concept of the move, but showing proof of vaccine (as seems to be what they are suggesting) is hardly the equivalent of sharing your health records.
This thing is so scary on so many fronts that I could cry - everywhere you look, communities are in crisis. We just need to do better. Stay home, get the vaccine and do your part.
The vaccine supply issue is important, but is distracting @ongov from the issue right in front of us.
Without a new supply of trained, rested and available HCWs, especially ICU RNs, we will be improvising at the bedside and in danger of providing suboptimal care.
I just admitted 3 patients to the ICU in 30 mins. All of them had qualified for the vaccine over a month ago but never got it. Sadly, all of them now have severe Covid. Please DON’T HESITATE when it’s your chance. It may be your last.
On International Women’s Day we honour all of the Murdered and Missing Indigenous women and girls and ask @JustinTrudeau where is the federal action on the 2019 MMIWG report?
It's 3 times cheaper to provide housing & support services to the homeless than it is to keep them on the streets. So we’re literally wasting A LOT of public money by not housing & supporting homeless people. Via @mattyglesias in @voxdotcom https://t.co/MXCudF6fP8
But the BIGGEST parking problem is likely how parking dominates the public, professional & political discourse on city-building, at the expense of EVERYTHING else that’s important. How EASILY it stands in the way of real progress on ALL other aspirations that cities might have.
