I’ve lost count of how many children speed past me on the shared use paths in my ‘hood on these… rarely wearing a helmet, often with two kids on the scooter.. www.cbc.ca/news/health/...

Danielle Smith and the UCP are experimenting with HC - fragmenting the system, neglecting workforce and capacity, and adding private care delivery and private pay options... The data is very clear the experiment is a failure...

It would be a good time to remind ALL Albertans that this Premier and this government does NOT have a mandate for what they are doing to fair and equitable HC Access. They ran on a Public Health Guarantee. The Premier lied, and simply cannot be trusted.

Timely access to family doctors is a significant barrier to Albertans' access to care. The AMA State of Health Care 2026 Report cites that 78% of walk-in clinic users go because they cannot see their family doctor quickly enough. www.albertadoctors.org/advocacy/str...

STATEMENT: The Canadian Health Coalition opposes today's harmful regulatory changes advancing Bill 11 in Alberta. We are calling on Health Minister Marjorie Michel to bring Alberta back into conformity with the Canada Health Act and prevent other provinces from following suit.

If only a certain premier would get on board and lift her stupid moratorium on alternative energy, then we could try to do the same AND have more than one egg in our economic basket.

Take a moment to read this Op-ED. HCWs and pts should have the right to feel safe when presenting to our EDs and hospitals. The overt violence - verbal and physical - is growing. Govt must act. No more words... Govt MUST act.

Just imagine not taking advantage of resources that are unlimited, free and do not get stopped at the strait of Hormuz.

Alberta Chambers of Commerce ringing alarm bells. More than 50% of business members report losses resulting from separatism debate. We’re driving investment away! Please, help us stop this self-inflicted harm and sign up with Forever-Canadian.ca myemail.constantcontact.com/Media-Releas...

If you are in AB, and are not absolutely SCREAMING about the state of our health care system, you need to pay more fucking attention.

@debjackson.bsky.social thought you’d enjoy this. Someone else agrees with you.

... and this is why the oil and gas industry needs such huge subsidies and tax breaks and to not be required to clean up their messes, boys and girls.

It's our house. We have many differences, we hear about them daily, but we have more common ground than we realize. We are Canadian, we want good education for our kids, and we care about quality healthcare. #abpoli #ableg #alberta #ABresistance

You haven't already signed the #foreverCanadian petition you can find a signing location at the link below This would be a great thing to do on Thanksgiving weekend www.forever-canadian.ca/sign-the-pet...

Truth served to the conservative party in power in Alberta. Shame on them to see students spilling out of their schools to march to the legislature on behalf of their teachers.

NSAIDs (which many pregnant women will now take instead of Tylenol) are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events like heart attack & stroke. Pregnancy-associated SCAD is also a leading cause of heart attacks during pregnancy & postpartum. NSAIDs increase SCAD risk. I am concerned.

To be clear, there are no data that provide a link between short-term use of Tylenol during pregnancy and autism. In fact, one of the best prospective studies w/ sibling controls, if anything, pointed to a protective effect for use less than 7 days acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

The BS asymmetry principle: The amount of energy needed to refute BS is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it. Thank you to every science communicator who is doing the almost impossible work of countering misinformation every day. Every single one of you is saving lives!

So happy to see 22 Minutes back for new season. Lots of good digs at PP and DS and all round good laughs. Much needed these days especially in AB.

This is why we need the Covid vax free and easily available to ALL children in AB!

Guess they think they know who exactly is at highest risk 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I hate this government - experimenting with our health!

Outstanding article on covid’s impact on our immunity. We need to confront this emerging truth and stop this harm to all humanity. @nicktsergas.ca @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social @senpatrickbrazeau.bsky.social @jmeddings.bsky.social @snyderinstitute.bsky.social www.bmj.com/content/390/...

Has anyone else in Alberta or Canada been getting a lot (2-4x/day) of unwanted ?spam calls from the US in past few weeks? I don’t answer & they don’t leave messages. I block them all but they keep coming. It is getting very annoying. I can’t help wonder if it is related to the Alberta 51 campaign.

Hang tough fellow Canadians. Keep up the boycott of all things American. ❤️🇨🇦

💲meant for infrastructure & HCWs is being misappropriated by Smith’s UCP. Her UCP divert public funds to be private managed by UCP friendly corps, with as many unqualified UCP appointees as possible in exec admin. AB needs a public audit of every dime in fed health transfers & AB taxpayer funds.

It amazes me how many people have no idea about the size of their so-called reorganization and what it has cost us with zero dollars going to the front lines.

Health groups are mobilizing behind the scenes to preserve access for vaccines as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. works to upend the nation’s decades-old vaccine system, according to public health experts.

"She is absolutely wrong about how effective the vaccine is. And her own Ministry of Health has the data to prove it," said Talbot, who is also an adjunct professor at the University of Alberta. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

What’s next, patient fees for that screening blood test or flu shot or mammogram or childhood immunization? Because all of those things are preventative healthcare staples too and all of them keep Albertans out of the hospital or get them early treatment so they can survive. They also SAVE MONEY.

Thank you to Alberta's nurses for the difference you make every day. Your compassion, strength & skills are what makes healthcare better. Whether it's offering a moment of comfort or a life-saving decision, your impact is felt in every corner of our health care system. #NursesWeek #AlbertaNurses
