This is truly laughable projection - she's undergoing expert critiques for being an unexperienced proto-'journalist' who thrust herself into a top tier editorial position at a national network and is madly failing - I mean just fuck off with that trope

The new normal we warned about in 2020 is sadly our reality - this will not end until current health 'leaders' are booted into obscurity and common sense, like basic infection control, is restored

Remember when Dix was Health Minister all those many pandemic years ago (and still firing on all cylinders) and said this would be solved ....

And heading into the worst flu winter in over a decade - fun times folks, be careful, vaccinate and mask

Now that everyone knows who Trump-protecting Bari Weiss is, let's recall that Vancouver Coastal Health's Head of Comms, Deana Lancaster, was RT'ing Bari Weiss not long ago

The 2 of them, busy mocking & downplaying the seriousness of Covid. PS Covid never was & still is not "the sniffles" #bcpoli

The schism inside OneBC is the same ideological split building inside the US far-right:

generic zionist white supremacists vs. anti-semitic actual nazis like this guy Othman, whom Ratchford & Thielmann & presumably Tara Armstrong are defending. This time I find Wyatt more credible:

Actually laughing at this - do a town hall occupying prime time CBS with the widow of Charlie Kirk about him being misrepresented as toxic, gay bashing, misogynist, Nazi jerk, and wonder why major advertisers balk?

Bari Weiss is so out of touch with reality

Nearly 200 aftershocks (M2.5-5.8) within 30 hours of yesterday’s M7 earthquake in Yukon. Had this occurred in a densely populated region, all/most of these aftershocks would have been felt, with some large enough to cause additional damage. A lot will be learned from this earthquake sequence.

Whelp! The BC Conservative party's Twitter account says Rustad has been removed as leader because he is "professionally incapacitated"

Unclear whether that's actually in line with the party constitution

A game of he said, they said. BC Conservative Party and board say leader John Rustad has been removed, Trevor Halford appointed interim leader.

Rustad insists he is not going anywhere and the move is against the party constitution.

BC politics is always entertaining.

They honestly have been celebrating infection for years. And I'll say it again, being PRO-infection undermines vaccines.
