For Africa, climate change is not about the future. It's about now. Our crops failing, our lakes shrinking, our people displaced — while boardrooms thousands of miles away count record profits. We don't have a climate problem. We have a justice problem. #ClimateJustice

“Many children bereaved in the first pandemic waves are now adolescents or young adults, but their longer-term mental-health course remains largely unknown” H/t @ohcasavant.bsky.social www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...

Wanna know what else is WAY more popular in Alberta than #Separatism? A national cap on #OilAndGas #Emission & you want to know why? Because a HUGE majority of Albertans are concerned about #ClimateChange & concerned about #Wildfires impacting our health. True Alberta story cape.ca/press_releas...

Naming names is the latest news from @violetblue.bsky.social. SMH more than ever on this reveal. VOTE!

It's so heartwarming to see others masking, the BEST way to stop the spread of airborne illness!!! Thankyou for setting a good example!

Medicine's management class is desperate to hide the blood on their hands. Their alliance with MAHA lets them manipulate data more directly in the US, but make no mistake, this is happening everywhere. When medical leaders downplay #longCOVID or #ME/CFS, they're showing you who they really are.

edmontonjournal.com/... Take a moment to read. The math is simple. We have double the population with less hospital beds then in the 1980s. It isn't immigrants. It's govt's ignoring our hospital and workforce planning and building. It's lack of HCWs and BEDs! 1/2

No one could have foreseen this. Wake up, Canada. www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

LOUDER!!! 👏 “Every dollar of public money spent to cover the unmet financial obligations of the oil and gas industry is a dollar not spent on essential public services such as education and healthcare,” Bryant wrote. #ABLeg #ABPoli #CDNPoli @cuym-alberta.bsky.social

It's 2026 and doctors are recommending handwashing as a way to prevent inhaling airborne viruses.

Let me be clear: we know from evidence in countries around the world that physician dual practice drains resources away from the public system and, in many cases, increases wait times for public patients. This goes directly against the spirit of the Canada Health Act. 1/3

With the Cargill report making the rounds, it's worth remembering that infection control wasn't just incompetent in 2020 - this is that special, sustained, durable kind of incompetence that comes along with the refusal to ever admit a mistake. Let infection control screw up once, and it's forever.

This government needs to be recalled.

edmontonjournal.com/... "Albertans should worry about their access to health care. As a physician in the public system, listening to the conversations among my colleagues, I fear my children will not have the care they will actually need." Please take a moment to read 👇

“It should not be controversial to say: it is not okay that 3,200 children died in their schools. Without their families. It is not okay to bury children at school. Regardless off how they died.” ### orlaghokelly.substack.com/p/reclaiming...

this is what we're advertising for every time I listen to a podcast in Alberta?

We need someone in Alberta government to say this stuff... it's not raising the bar to expect data centers to not negatively impact a community. evidence is so ample, and each one that gets proposed should be adjusted based on all of the impact issues already evident - or they shouldn't be built.

Today's public health: Doing health for the many is too dang hard now! Also: We no longer promote science or accountability as a powerful few have expressed discomfort with the idea of fallibility. Not mentioned: Sorry about your preventable airborne-contracted chronic health conditions!!

This is from 1994, and things have only gotten worse since. "The scandal of poor medical research", Altman writing in BMJ. Institutional medicine isn't suffering from a lack of trust - it's suffering from a lack of *trustworthiness*. #medsky #scisky www.bmj.com/content/308/...

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

we need to oppose this horrific omnibus bill environmentaldefence.ca/2026/09/21/s...

CEO of Inclusion Canada calls for basic income for disabled people to match basic income for seniors. Basic income already works for some -- let's build on it for all. Published in The Winnipeg Sun (which leans conservative).

CEO pay is up 1,316% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 28%. CEOs are now paid 325 TIMES as much as the typical worker in their industry, according to @epi.org Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Spielberg is demonstrating he understands airborne infection and how to mitigate it! He’s outside at the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and he’s wearing a KN95! A good respirator protects you and those around you. Covid is not over and a mask is a great way to stay healthy.

Good: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I have read the same James Baldwin quote about our responsibilities to our collective children every week for as long as I’ve been on here (and before) but almost never, very, extremely, rarely in conjunction with protecting them from airborne pathogens. 🍅🍅🍅

CTV news coverage of the errors in health policy and guidance that leave the public unprotected from aerosol disease transmission and long COVID (with @drdavidkeegan.bsky.social and Kerri Bowser) is up. Great to see so much interest! Below is the UK inquiry cited: #medsky #scisky #cdnpoli #polisky

Oof. 😬 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Systemic racism: Woman dies because Canadian Indigenous Affairs health benefits failed its treaty obligation to fund follow-up to open heart surgery. The program is bad- often pays less than normal medical rates, puts up so many barriers to patients & professionals. www.aptnnews.ca/national-new...

much like researching female hormones by only researching men and therefore menstrual issues are non-existent, masks are designed to fit men and if they don't fit you that is certainly not the man's problem, and the research shows masks fit and no further development is needed.

This is an important step forward. The illusion of protection from infection while masking only during AGPs and not while sharing air was vibe-based, LONG undermined by mountains of replicated studies in aerosol transmission research, think since tuberculosis.

Good question

“Alberta pays no money to Quebec, or to any other province. The Alberta government, like other provinces, receives huge transfers from Ottawa to help pay for health care and other programs.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

"A recent @policyalternatives.ca analysis of data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information found that from 2021 to 2023, private health-care spending per person grew by 8.1 per cent — almost twice as fast as public spending." #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/health/...
