@AUS_SUA Feed has ended before the game has …again. What the heck. This has happened with AUSTV all season and now during the very end of a knuckle biter final! 😠

@jodyvance EXACTLY! Agree 100%

So at this point, a costed platform is still missing & the BC Conservatives' education plan is being rewritten on the fly

With healthcare arguably the #1 issue for #bcpoli voters, we still haven't seen that plan; their website has near zero detail

General voting day is Saturday

Pls watch this.

I'm stumped.
Let me 🤔.
Here is my simplistic summary 🧵.
(Keep in mind - I’m a surgeon - I think in very simple terms.)

1. 2019/2020 New disease appears
2. We soon learn #1 can cause long-term damage to the immune system
3. We ignore #2
4. We provide zero education

🚨 Oh god, am I really going to have to talk about Keean Bexte? 😩

The self-styled “journalist” — who seems to spend significant time reporting on his self-professed “persecution” — rocked up on Trudeau and harassed him into a bad-faith interview.

Let’s talk about it:

@bobmackin @grousemountain It certainly resulted in no shortage of First Responders having to help people who tried walking/climbing down. The sirens up Cap Rd we’re all evening

[Lea Carpenter @mediateller]

@CityNewsVAN what has been going on up at Grouse Mountain today and their gondola? Sirens going up Cap Rd all evening

@AM730Traffic No!!!!

80 years ago tonight, the armada to liberate Europe from the Nazis set sail across the English Channel. To commemorate this historic moment, the graves of the fallen - including more than 5000 Cdns - were illuminated all across Normandy by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission:

The @cantaskforce is making decisions about women’s health in Canada + 💯 not listening to actual experts in breast cancer.
This is a major concern, do not gate-keep our breast cancer screening.

@CarpAdvocacy I find your sponsorship by a tobacco co to be disgraceful & putting $ over seniors’ health. #ShameOnYou

@ShawInfo I want you to know that the inability to talk to a human through your customer service makes it the WORST!

@nvanrcmp is there a place that a north van resident can take old fireworks for destruction? Thank you

[B.C. Wildlife Federation @BCWildlife]

Why is the BCWF helping fund B.C.’s Invasive Mussel Defence Program? Invasive quagga and zebra mussels are the single biggest invasive threat to our freshwater ecosystems, hydroelectric facilities, irrigation systems, and municipal water infrastructure. https://t.co/nsgVEKSzsH

Happening right now. In front of my own eyes. I am listening to these people chant for the death of Jews and Israel.

A little 8-year-old boy beside me is screaming this too.

This is Al-Quds day. This is what they do on their “blessed day.”

Toronto. 1939.

Four female journalists were arrested in the last couple of days in Russia. @AleAstakhova, the photo biographer of @navalny, Antonina Favorskaya, whose photos from Navalny's grave are all around the world, Anastasia Muratova, a @sotavisioneng reporter - all in Moscow, and @olgakomleva2 - in Ufa. I fear that they face long prison terms - for their photos, but mostly for their bravery, patriotism, and devotion.
