@Sflecce I watched you during QP yesterday. YOU LAUGHED & cracked jokes with @MonteMcNaughton when the opposition tried to raise the fact that single women were forced to use food banks to feed their kids, have to work a second job to due to poor wages & inflation! Vile & disgusting!
Heartbreaking: An immunocompromised 51 year old man spoke against lifting COVID-19 protections (e.g. mask mandates) to protect people like him. Protections were lifted & then…he died. 💔
Why don’t we value the lives of immunocompromised people the same way?
One word: Ableism.

Loud party way pass 1am & now at 7am again. Don’t even get me started on the parking of cars on both sides of the road leaving no space for local two way traffic. Shut the freak up!!! It’s a holiday & I would like to sleep in peace until 9am! #Toronto#EmeryVillage
Can a virus be BOTH airborne and contact? Sure, a bunch are. Look at "varicella zoster virus", the one behind shingles and chickenpox. As shingles it is contact, as chickenpox it is airborne.
We criminalize issues so we don't have to address them.
We criminalize poverty instead of addressing income inequality. We criminalize homelessness instead of addressing the lack of housing. We criminalize mental illness instead of providing access to treatment and supports.
