Dr. Fridbjörn Sigurdsson was a medical oncologist before focusing on ME/CFS. During the 2025 Invest in ME conference, he said: "What I have learned is that most of the patients that I have seen with ME are so much sicker than my cancer patients."

This latest COVID booster is kicking my butt. Hardly any reaction to the past vaccinations but this one has caused a fever, sore arm, headache and sore joints. At least I know my body is creating an immune response & that’s a good thing.

Many demonstrations took place across Europe to protest Israel’s interception, detention & deportation of flotilla participants who were trying to get much needed aid to Gaza. Look at how Italy responded. This is what Americans need to do to block Trump’s militarization of their cities.

When you become chronically ill, your world shrinks. You can’t do a lot of the things you used to. People disappear. It can be an isolating existence. That said, you learn to slow down, simplify your life & reject rampant consumerism. These skills will be invaluable when facing what’s to come

Is Poilievre’s costed platform best called “a wishful thinking budget” or “a creative accounting budget”? He calls for $75 billion in tax cuts but claims this drop in govt revenue will be offset by economic growth that will generate an extra $21 billion a year! During a trade war? What’s he smoking?

I’m tired of hearing Albertans complain about equalization payments & how Ottawa has pillaged their economy. 🇨🇦 built them a pipeline, Harper negotiated the current equalization formula, & 🇨🇦 taxpayers gave $ to clean up the O&G companies abandoned wells yet they still cry they’re hard done by.

“United States Judge James Boasberg has found “probable cause” to hold the White House in contempt of court, for showing “willful disregard” for his order to cease deportations”. Now let’s see if anything happens. I imagine this will be totally ignored like all the other court rulings.

I’m becoming increasingly worried about my son & daughter-in-law returning to Canada for a visit this summer. Despite having a green card, an American wife, a job & no criminal record, his legal status doesn’t seem to matter. They could refuse to let him back into the US.This shouldn’t be happening

Poilievre just contradicted himself, majorly. A month ago he promised to devote 100% of tariff revenue to supporting businesses impacted by US tariffs. Today he just said he’d use that same money for military spending: www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

So it’s going well!
The image is a line graph titled "S&P 500 INDEXED TO INAUGURATION DAY." The x-axis represents "Days from Inauguration Day," ranging from 0 to 200, and the y-axis represents the "Index," ranging from 90 to 120. The graph compares the performance of the S&P 500 index during the first 200 days of three U.S. presidential terms: Obama in 2013 (black line), Biden in 2021 (blue line), and Trump in 2025 (red line). The Obama and Biden lines show a general upward trend, reaching around 115 on the index by day 200, with Obama's line slightly higher. The Trump line starts at 100 but drops sharply to around 90 within the first 50 days and continues to decline. Small circular images of Obama, Biden, and Trump are placed near their respective lines on the graph. The legend at the bottom identifies the lines as "Obama - 2013" (black), "Biden - 2021" (blue), and "Trump - 2025" (red).

Does anyone know if Trump’s base tariff of 10% on all goods from Canada is on top of the 25% tariff he already put on steel & aluminum or instead of?

Hey CTV Your Morning, do you see what’s wrong here? You hired a fact-checker to monitor any lies being spread on the campaign trail. One of the liars objected to the idea his lies were going to be called out, so you fired the fact-checker! That’s not how news networks are supposed to operate.

I’m devastated, but I’m also angry. I’m angry because this is an attack on press freedom. If opportunities can be stripped from journalists simply because enough people repeat the same bad-faith narrative, how can anyone withstand the career impact of doing work that matters?

Absolutely gutting news. Another person with ME/CFS died of starvation after being refused tube feeding. The NHS was warned about this months ago, after Maeve’s inquest. And nothing was done to improve the situation. The scariest part is that the cases we know of are only the tip of the iceberg.

Found out today that a lady in a Bristol hospital who had M.E, EDS and MCAS passed away this week from starvation.
How tf is that possible in this day and age to allow that to happen? To be refused TPN because the 'infection risk is too dangerous' ... more dangerous than? Death?
