Those are cute! My daughter wore one of the spring ones to an event this year and it was a perfect "fancy" mask option. She wears xxs but I just ordered some xs frames to try. Honestly I don't buy many of the fancy ones because they're more expensive and my kids can go through more than one a day.

I finally got around to ordering and you're out of the XS frames! Any idea when they'll be available again?

Now would be a great time for @ndp.ca, @canadiangreens.bsky.social & Bloq to push for electoral reform in ex. for stable support. I'm happy with the outcome but hope this isn't the final slide into a 2 party system. Vote splitting and strategic voting with FPTP isn't much better.

Do you (or anyone) know if there's somewhere to track the polls as they come in? Specifically the early vs. day-of polls?

Carolyn Marshall 🇨🇦 @carolynm.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
Thanks! I was confused about how that wouldn't just delay everything, especially with such widespread advanced voting this time.

Carolyn Marshall 🇨🇦 @carolynm.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
CBC said early votes tend to come in later, but the reporting comes in by poll. How does that work? If you do advanced voting do you technically belong to a different poll than the one on election day?

Why is CBC reporting on the debate outside? Are they locked out? They look chilly.

Credit where credit is due - the new GRT app makes casual riding a lot easier than having to find change or buy a card. It's great when you happen to need to get between two places that are connected by the iON. Hopefully in time coverage will expand so that happens more often.

We need to talk about @rachelgilmore.bsky.social Our democracy is not going to make it without strong journalists. Let me begin by stating the obvious: these thoughts are mine alone. They do not speak for my employers. They are personal and, at this moment, angry. #cdnmedia tinyurl.com/mwtpfbze

🚨 NIH sent out another data call, this time for projects "related to any form of censorship at all or directing people to believe one idea over another related to health outcomes… e,g., any contracts to promote COVID vaccine uptake," I'm told. These data calls have recently preceded terminations.

I hate now the media amplifies the right's performative pearl clutching over everything. They need to learn the difference between "asking tough questions" and "just asking questions".

Another day another irresponsible CBC article spreading dangerous and misleading 'normalcy' propaganda. This time pathologizing a child for being smarter than the adults in his life. The radio discussion with @ramraajh.bsky.social was just as outrageous as the article. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Pandemic's long shadow: parents, experts say kids still struggling with academics, attendance, social skills | CBC News
Five years after COVID-19 sent Canada's kids into a cycle of virtual learning and school closures, long-term effects of it still remain. Experts say international studies point to lags in performance ...

It's social immunity debt! I wonder how they'll keep it up with the kids who weren't in school yet.

You should have heard the discussion on Here and Now about it yesterday. It was disgusting how they talked about that kid who is clearly smarter than the adults in his life that bullied him into conformance. Apparently he wore a mask to school until last year.

Quirks & Quarks just ran a story about the severe, cumulative, & possibly irreversible damage of repeated infections. Then within days they publish this garbage downplaying ongoing risks, gaslighting a child, & not once considering the virus itself as a factor. Completely irresponsible "reporting".

Carolyn Marshall 🇨🇦 @carolynm.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Please please try to include kids that still mask (or are pressured not to) and those that have switched to home/virtual/alt school. Learning / socializing /teaching while sick or with LC symptoms in a system that openly gaslights anyone that recognizes it must have a huge impact on kids that age.

More hand-wringing this morning from @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social about school attendance. When will they consider the impact of constant & chronic illness, inconsistent instruction, & gaslighting/indifference from admin? The idea that teacher absenteeism is "self care gone too far" is absurd.

They haven't stopped with COVID either. Look at the hand-wringing over absenteeism and behaviour challenges in schools "since COVID". The acrobatics they've done to avoid making the connection deserves a medal.

Seems like it. Attention whore Hanomansing once again “both sides” a dictatorship threatening a sovereign country. He did the same thing with the pandemic - giving minimizers like Bogoch & Henry free rein to spread disinformation. Think of the masses he’s harmed by doing so. He’s a propagandist!

When you break rules to make a point, it needs to be clear that its intentional. With the off-key singing and flubbing the first line I assumed she either forgot the words or was intentionally provoking team Canada with the whole performance. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

He didn't say that. And if he did, he didn’t mean it. And if he did mean it, you didn’t understand. And if you did, it’s not a big deal. And if it is, others have said worse.
