While searching for the SKS podcasts to refer a friend, I stumbled upon a new season! Finding a new season with @dridgen had made my day. Not sure how I missed this. Look forward to listening on my runs.

Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 833-456-4566 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline CDA). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other.

What would I do with rising case counts in Ontario?
I’d wait until 800 daily cases. If Rt still above one at that point, roll back to stage 2.
Until then: Mask up; get vaccinated.

A public school is being named after a legendary Edmonton locker room attendant who happened to have #downsyndrome, Joey Moss, who passed away last October. A priceless tribute to an incredible man worked for the city’s sports teams for 30+ years. cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/…

But golf, tennis, cricket, basketball, baseball, soccer and other outdoor sports are NOT the problem.
Safe outdoor sports are good for physical health and mental health!

Ford is not closing down workplaces like Amazon or offering workers paid sick leave but instead choosing a police state where even parks and outdoor spaces are off limits. This is completely unacceptable. How far down the wrong path do we need to go before we realize its wrong?

We are not tracking or reporting covid cases or mortality by disability in Canada. What proportion of ppl who have died here were disabled? Do we think our numbers would be very different? If we don’t count, they don’t count.
