Woman Leaving the Psychoanalyst botfrens.com/collections/69/content…
"Woman Leaving the Psychoanalyst" by Remedios Varo depicts a cloaked figure with ethereal, swirling hair, symbolizing transformation and introspection. Carrying a translucent mask and a fishbowl, the artwork delves into themes of identity and self-discovery, hallmarks of Varos' imaginative surrealism.

As Alberta and Ontario create a two-tier health care system, one for the rich and one for the rest of us, the Carney Liberal government does nothing to enforce the Canada Health Act, because for them, profit is the answer to everything.

It's ok to have voted for Carney, I get it. What isn't acceptable is refusing to hold him and his government accountable for their actions. Democracy requires far more from us than just voting.

Carney has a habit of outright lying to us. Mark Carney says privatizing Canada’s busiest airports will lower costs for consumers. Evidence shows the opposite www.thestar.com/gift-redeem?...
The self-sufficient airports, which effectively are annuities, aren’t in need of investment capital. It’s housing, critical minerals extraction and processing, and energy and transportation infrastructure that’s in need of capital.

Carney has tried to sell his idea as an affordability measure that would reduce airfares.

“The evidence shows travel costs go down over time,” Carney had said.

But the evidence shows the contrary. From Britain to Australia, competition authorities have found that after privatization, fees have risen for airlines, which pass them along to travelers. In some years, the privatized Heathrow tops the list as the world’s most expensive airport.

Is COVID surging in Ontario? I think it is. Wastewater surveillance lags about 2 weeks (which yes, mostly defeats its purpose). It reads as low/moderate. But in other jurisdictions around us it's surging. Anecdotally, I see a big bump in infections among people I know, just in the last week. 1/4

The Liberals handed billions to Big Oil, promising this would lower gas prices. It didn't work. Canadians are now paying MORE at the pump, while oil and gas giants will rake in $90B in profits this year. The NDP says: tax windfall profits and give that money back to Canadians.
