Quality content from the government as told by Markusoff
LaGrange's press secretary, Jessi Rampton, then told CBC News that a new ministerial order would be issued, which clarified that the administrator "will serve as interim president and CEO" — effectively ensuring that Tremblay (as administrator) can still appoint Tremblay (as AHS CEO), even if Tremblay no longer serves as deputy health minister.

Canada needs to immediately suspend Elon Musk's X and Starlink operations until aninvestigation can be conducted into his transnational activities, including use of X and Starlink to influence democracies, campaign financing threats against US elected officials, and activities within the US govt.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social you have got to be kidding. Kevin O’Leary? He is not representative of Canadians. I am very disappointed in CBC and your approach today. This is inappropriate. Trump is threatening our country and you have this joker on CBC, our national broadcaster?

Pierre Poilievre will never be a reasonable leader for this country. What will you achieve if you bring down our current govt to prove a point if you allow the conservatives and Stephen Harper to resume power( because he’s the wizard behind the curtain)? You need to come up with another way

Masks in hospitals save lives. When masking is dropped - they saw a 25% jump in hospital acquired viral infections. When reinstated? A 33% decrease. It’s almost as though masking should be mandatory and permanent in hospital settings. www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi...

cbc has a good article that explains how induced demand works and how bike lanes reduce traffic and improve the local economy, citing plenty of studies www.cbc.ca/news/science...
article screenshot, headline: Do bike lanes really cause more traffic congestion? Here's what the research says

subhead: Studies from around the world show bike lanes ease congestion, reduce emissions and are a boon to businesses

According to Moriarty Lab (not here yet) almost all of Canada is at severe levels again. 1 in 31 people are currently infected. Be careful out there! Well-fitting N95s really help reduce the spread!!
An indication of each province covid risk rated based on several factors  including hospital admissions and wastewater. All are severe except for Newfoundland. These numbers means that Covid is expected to cause that percent of excess mortality! Canada overall is at 24.1, Alberta at 22.3, BC at 20.3, Manitoba at 33.1, New Brunswick at 27.1, Newfoundland at 13.3, North at 24.9, Nova Scotia at 25.6, Ontario at 19.9, PEI at 16.4, Quebec at 29.3, and Saskatchewan at 29.9.
