When 7 in 10 Canadians would support the return of mask mandates. When there is an unprecedented disaster in children's hospitals. When COVID is likely causing widespread immunosuppression…can someone explain to me why governments aren't bringing back indoor masking?
Hearing a lot of masking recommendations for those at high risk
I’m not sure how many times this needs to be said, but I will continue to say it until it takes hold:
#COVIDIsAirborne
We all share the air we breathe
Collective, not individual, action will keep our community safe
That kind of “kindness” has led to hospitals overflowing with very sick children.
It’s not “kind” to let adult make decisions that hurt children.

Ontario has filled all its pediatric ICU beds as reported by Dr Warner. @drmwarner
We need a mask mandate now.
Let me repeat - we have no pediatric ICU beds. Let that sink in.

Masking, despite its accumulated evidence of benefit in reducing viral disease transmission, remains a political hot potato, and will likely only be brought in when politicians realize the immense economic damage of a disabled workforce.
There are virtually no more pediatric ICU beds left and hospital CEOs are pleading for the public to mask, but our policymakers are waiting on what exactly?
@Sflecce The only thing you're achieving right now is more embarrassment for your reputation. Enough already... we all want kids in school, but we don't want to suspend people's rights over that. You'll have to live with that choice, but we don't.
@brianlilley More importantly: if people can't live of their wage, they will be forced to quit and find other jobs. How open do you expect schools to be then? If you'd actually care about kids being in school, you'd be negotiating. At least stop the lying.
@brianlilley Hits people with those much lower wages much harder than you given current inflation. My question is: would you live of that CUPE salary (fulltime) of 40k?
@brianlilley Private schools like Ye's? 😂 Strike shows it might be time to actually care about workers and pay them accordingly. That way our kids can go back to their schools, even in the long run.
@Sflecce Every tool, except negotiating. There's only one option left because you chose dictatorship and that is a strike. Want it ended? Actually care about kids? Negotiate!
