Whose idea ⁦@WesternU was it to close down roads on campus when classes have started. Getting off campus is currently a nightmare. ⁩

It’s overtime @CanadianPM
Science and research are fundamental building blocks of Canada that require sustained attention, nurture and support. Our world class researchers and students wait, while peer countries increase funding. Time to invest in the granting councils and graduate scholarships.

Congrats to @AsilElgalad who not only successfully completed her thesis, but submitted it two days early. It was an absolutely pleasure co-supervising you with @Betts_Lab. You have set a very high bar for future students with the work you did on flexibility in higher education.

Daughter and husband selected for random Covid screen after flying home from NYC. In a province with no testing, no reporting, no masking, I fail to understand how this practice protects anyone. Utter waste of time, resources, and tears from the 12 yo! 😩
