Never ask a politician who should use the ER because a "sore throat" can be:
-acute leukemia
-a surgical emergency like retropharyngeal abscess
-an acute airway emergency like epiglottis or Ludwig's angina
-a new non-hematological cancer
The mouth speaks what the mind knows.
Please do not squirt coffee up your butt.
Coffee enemas are not a treatment for cancer.
What scares me isn’t just the burns, infections, or rectal injuries.
It’s that someone with cancer might delay treatment that could actually save their life because they trusted the wrong person online.
Ontario is short at least 5000 hospital beds. Most of our hospitals are in deficit and borrowing money from commercial banks. Ontario's Conservative government has underfunded hospitals and healthcare - and it shows.
@MaritStiles 17 hours is a modest estimate. My father waited 5 days in the ER for a room. Every day the same patients were lined up on gurneys in the ER. The staff were great but greatly understaffed.
Every time I bring up a Universal Basic Income, people lose their minds and say, "I don't want my taxes paying for it."
Here's my question:
How much are your taxes already paying for poverty?
How much are we spending on homelessness, emergency rooms, shelters, policing, courts, jails, child welfare, lost productivity, and food insecurity?
Poverty isn't free. In fact, poverty costs society a fortune.
The real debate shouldn't be whether we can afford to reduce poverty, it should be whether we can afford not to!
Rachel Maddow tonight talking about how Trump is trying to stop the opening of the US Canada Gordie Howe International bridge.
Because while the bridge was 100% funded by Canada, Donald wants half ownership for the US.
We don't have a president. We have a mob boss.
What do Conservatives have against people with disabilities?
In Ontario, Doug Ford calls them lazy and tells them to get a job.
In Alberta Danielle Smith destroyed disability support and an Albertan man took his own life as a direct result.
Former deputy PM John Manley: We used to always refer to the president of the United States as the leader of the free world. Donald Trump is not the leader of anything other than about the 37% of Americans that still support him. If anything, intellectually at least, Mark Carney has become the leader of the free world, the countries that believe in democracy and the rule of law.
Racists are the most thin skinned people in existence. A black man being president broke them so completely and eternally, they will never get over it.
I think Canadians are taking back Twitter, is it just me?
Canada seems to be kicking ass on here, scaring off the trolls and bringing back the Canadian spirit on this platform. 🇨🇦
I keep finding new Canadian accounts.
Are you back Canadians, let’s do this. 🍁
“So let me get this straight: You started a war, got people killed, torched billions of dollars, threatened global oil supplies & ended up with basically the same deal I had - except Iran gets way more money. And I’m the one you call weak?? 😂😂😂”
No immigrant has taken your job. You were laid off by a capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear you blame the immigrant and not him.
