Hospitals across Canada are closing their ERs because there aren't enough doctors to run them. Millions don’t have a doctor. Millions more can’t get an appointment.

It didn’t used to be this way. Turns out it wasn’t an accident.

Remember how CBC dedicated an entire call-in show to "The US is going to annex us. What are your thoughts on that?" and they had Kevin O'Leary on as an 'expert'? And they doubled and tripled down, defending their decision to do that?

CBC, he does not respect you. Why do y'all respect him?!
It gets worse:

“The thing about the CBC, I gotta tell you guys, is the whole place is run by women. I’m working for women. I’m a token guy there ...

So you know how I get back at them? Today when I do that hit by Skype, I won’t have any pants on. I never do. I’m not kidding.”

Well, this is entirely on point. From experience with multiple institutions, Canada's research integrity processes are completely inadequate. They automatically cover for influential individuals no matter what they do, even when lives and health are on the line.

The total cost of a completed "Golden Dome," named for the tyrant's favourite colour, could reach trillions of dollars.

I'll think of this when official framing around national pharmacare shifts to it being "just too expensive."

Ford PC's fundraising chair ”not only raises party funds from developers, but he personally makes money working with them."

Why is this not a surprise?

I wonder how different our world would be if Canadian media could muster the same outrage over the government’s inaction on the forced starvation in Gaza as we do for foreign interference and government debt levels…

Breaks my heart, truly. These are choices.

Some people think this is a uniquely American issue. It's not.

If your country has health insurance companies in it you'll be personally affected by this.

The Online News Act (which I’ve called ”easily the biggest policy screw up in recent Canadian history“™) led Meta to ban all Canadian news links on Facebook and Instagram

@leahgazan.bsky.social should strongly consider.

Carney seems quite aligned with her on the idea of a national basic income program
