No one experiencing an allergic reaction should have to hope someone on board has an Epi-Pen to spare. All flights should just have the life-saving treatment you need. The FAA must reverse course and require epinephrine in every emergency medical kit on every flight. Lives could depend on it.

One shudders to contemplate what 🇨🇦Canada would look like today if piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre had been elected in 2025. He and his grisly henchmen have always favoured the 🇺🇸USA way of life over ours. One can just imagine him lining his KuKluxKonvoy buddies up to welcome Trump across the border. 🍁😳🍁

In the end they believe chronically ill and disabled people are weak or lying. They think if we just gave up medicine and our attachment to medical science and just ate non-GMO, “chemical free” foods we’d miraculously heal (or die, which is fine by them too).
