If they pull this off it'd be huge. Huge. Glorious news for the afflicted and their families. And maybe even the biggest cost-savings for entitlement programs in history. We spend 100s of billions of dollars caring for people with Alzheimer's. Science! act.alz.org/site/DocServer/2…

Researchers were able to reverse memory loss in mice and are keen to move quickly to human trials

Not a slight on this official in particular, but if Canada is to return to a place where serious governance happens, we need to get back into habit of accountability that major resignations provide

Between stuff like this and the hours-long wait to vote for some Canadians, a resignation from the Chief Electoral Officer would be appropriate.
This is disgusting.

Tolerance isn't a lack of exclusive beliefs. Everyone has exclusive beliefs--we all think we are right about important things and the world would be better if others agreed. Tolerance is whether your beliefs lead you to treat those disagreeing with kindness, respect, humility.

We’re talking about a man who kept his money in a tax-preferred trust fund, was convicted of repeatedly violating the ethics act & took tens of thousands of dollars of gifts from people he gave government grants.
But enough about Justin Trudeau.
Bill Morneau resigned tonight.

So the genesis of this was a WE pitch to cabinet then.
*pauses, lets that sink in*
It was considerate of these ex-politicians and diplomats to group together like this. Now we know which corner of the room to ignore on foreign policy questions going forward.

This is Trudeau’s big issues play? “Why don’t the other leaders stand with me and maybe, possibly, if the stars align just so, do the right thing?”
If you’re going to morally preen at least take a stand first.
"So why not act on your convictions and leave the door open for challenging it."

I’ve been rah rahing the debate to everyone who will tolerate me for the last week, but this is just awful.
Just re-run the Maclean’s debate from last month and call it a day.
Who is this sock and why is he awful?
The #blackface pic of #Trudeau raises questions - it's a b&w photo, what colour was makeup? Was he playing a genie? Was the performance derogatory toward POC, as blackface was? Answers we don't have. What we do know - since that pic, JT has opened door to POC immigrants/refugees.
Smart visual.

Turns out city politics makes @Ottawa_Steve angry and whimsical all at the same time. A great read on a messy week in Ottawa City Politics.
