Personal belief. If I'm going to like something on bsky, generally I'm going to repost too. Why not? lift voices. Unless it is like "I hope you are having a good day, Joe" Those I keep to myself, and like.

Hey AB, get your vaccines... our HC system is already struggling. The waits in our EDs are astronomical, and only going to get worse. Do your part to protect yourself, your loved ones, and our overburdened HC system. I got Influenza + Covid vaccines same day...

Let me be clear: we know from evidence in countries around the world that physician dual practice drains resources away from the public system and, in many cases, increases wait times for public patients. This goes directly against the spirit of the Canada Health Act. 1/3

I keep meeting smart informed Albertans who tell me they do not intend to vote, because they don’t want to legitimize the process, or because they know the premier is not bound by the results. But what if making us give up on voting is the whole point? My argument to vote - no matter the absurdity.

If you need a selfish (vs altruistic) reason to never support a politician who's willing to sell out trans rights for votes, it's this: If they'll abandon trans people (who are fucking PEOPLE) to get votes, they'll happily abandon you too if it's in their interests. They simply have no integrity.
