Tonight, I’m thinking about Justice Murray Sinclair and of the times that I was lucky enough to hear him speak about his work with the TRC. This moment stands out for me. It’s his answer when he was asked, “Why can’t you just get over it?”
I went to Winnipeg to see Murray Sinclair in assisted living earlier this year. There, he conducted his final interview. We also went to Selkirk and he showed me where he grew up. It was the culmination of a decade of trust building. Story here: https://t.co/1FfbEV5HBn #cdnpoli

@nilikm The Ford government has stopped providing free rapid test kits at pharmacies and stores as of June. The only ones left in stores are all now are expired. Other provincial and state governments still provide free tests, but not Ontario.
@alexadamsBTP_@Sportsnet@HockeyScanner@ian_mendes I applaud you for all that you have done to create this wonderful opportunity for yourself and look forward to watching where it will take you Alex. Warm congratulations.
Covid cases rising as free rapid tests for Covid disappear or expire in Ottawa. The only tests left at the few pharmacies with supplies expire on Sept 21, 2024. The government cancelled the program in June according to this story by @egpayne https://t.co/BeHOGmw1aU
This week's Respiratory Dashboard update is live and the levels of COVID-19 circulating in our community remain high.
School's back, which means using your layers of protection matters that much more.
Avoiding gatherings (or staying home from school) when you feel sick and wearing a well-fitted mask when needed will help to prevent the spread.

I am thrilled that another @JSchool_CU grad will head North to launch their career @CBCNorth as part of this program and I was delighted to meet him today.
