she's directing parliament to address these issues, and she won't give a 12-month pause on declaring it unconstitutional — opting, instead, for six months — because we are in a public health crisis.

Wildfire smoke could be a blessing for evacuees still out of their homes in British Columbia, but it can be an unsettling sight for people who have returned home.

Some deaths are more obviously executions than others, but we are talking about human disposal systems. Some people are murdered at the intake points by the folks tasked with shoving them into the system. That visibility sometimes has a social impact. Usually not.

Glad to see the Gov't of Canada recommending well-fitting respirator style masks today due to the wildfire smoke - but these should be available free for everyone 😷
July 22 air quality warning on weather.gc.ca
If you must be outside, a well-fitted N95, KN95, or KF94 mask offers the most protection. Medical masks offer some protection and single layer coverings (e.g. bandanas, scarfs, shirts) offer none.
