😳”Poilievre’s Conservative Party wants to pass a bill, which would mean would be automatically granted security clearance since he can't or won’t obtain one legitimately.
If this isn’t a screaming red flag, I don’t know what is.”

“In a victory for nurses, teachers and 1000s of unionized public sector workers, Ontario's top court has upheld ruling that Premier Doug Ford's wage restraint legis is unconstitutional.

..capped wage increases for most public sector workers at 1% annually for 3 years & has been blamed for an exodus of health-care workers during the COVID pandemic”

Doug Ford was running SuperBowl ads instead of investing in healthcare.

👀​ Canada's premier political cartoonist Michael deAdder is pushing back..

"I'm sick of these tactics. I see journalists [& cartoonists] bullied by the right. Conservatives are bullying their way into power."

"When I draw a cartoon you don't realize that I've drawn almost the same number of Liberal cartoons. I've probably drawn more Liberal than Conservative because they are in power. You just see the Conservative cartoons and cry unfair."

Looks like Canadian cartoonist Michael deAdder cut too close to the bone for American conservatives as well. He has been let go from the Washington Post.

"Essentially, when you're infected with , your immune system abruptly forgets every pathogen it's ever encountered before"

"'Measles parties' are a really, really bad idea.
Do not expose your child to measles.
Get your child vaccinated. The MMR vaccine is safe and effective."

@CStamp @BuDS its truly mind boggling.

Today from Canadian physician Dr. Raghu Venugopal :
"Measles hopefully won't occur in but we're at risk. Most have not seen children die from sequelae, but I have.
In [] the measles vaccine rates are 78-86%. That's led the UK into outbreaks.
👉​ We need 95% coverage."

@TimWardCam @CStamp @BuDS

"Measles is the most contagious virus. Vaccine uptake needs to be 95% to stop spreading in the community. In England, the current uptake sits at under 86%, in some parts of London - less than 60%" 🥴​

"In short, there's not one person or one issue that Pierre won't exploit to try to ascend to power. If he has no qualms about using and lying about the Bernardo issue, imagine if Poilievre had power and the harm he could inflict upon Canadians."

There has never been a 'loyal' opposition party that wastes so much time & taxpayers money in faux outrage instead of dealing with real issues.
