The notion that everyone gets the same 24 hours in a day to be “productive” overlooks the fact that chronic illness can drastically affect how those hours are utilized.
Those with chronic illness have to manage symptoms, doctor appointments, and treatments.
These can consume significant time and energy, leaving less room for productivity and more time needed for rest.
One task may leave someone bed bound for a few hours.
It’s important not to place unrealistic standards of getting things done on someone with chronic illness.

Can he be removed if he does not do what is supposed to be done with this money?

We're on the precipice of very serious Measles outbreaks in Canada, now that vaccination rates have stupidly dropped. Improved ventilation in schools ---that we SHOULD HAVE IMPLEMENTED in 2020-- would really help to prevent that now.
My wife is a public school teacher. The idea that there's a concerted effort to turn your kids Marxist is absolutely ridiculous. They are trying to break your kids down to make them reliable Amazon employees.
I just interviewed a grown child of a mommy blogger and I just have to say we're not ready for the stories that are going to emerge in the coming years
One presenter displayed this bottle of tap water (pic above) from their community. It's unconscionable to consider Ontario's riches & know that now in the 21st century, many Indigenous & northern communities STILL don't have clean drinking water. The gov't must step up. 2/3
