11 years ago, my son Danny died. He was one of the early victims of the toxic drug crisis, one of over 50,000.
This video, showing Danny as a young chef, gives you a glimpse into what we have lost.
Keep fighting for #harmreduction. It would have saved him.

I can’t believe there are people who oppose free vaccines. They have zero possibility of ‘system abuse’ because who tf wants unnecessary shots, and every shot given out personally saves you money and personally makes you healthier.
The vast majority of Canadians agree that the COVID-19 vaccine should be free — except Conservatives:

🔴 LPC: 90%
🟠 NDP: 91%
⚜️ BQ: 79%
🔵 CPC: 44%
Large majority of Canadians agree that the COVID-19 vaccine should be free
A large majority of Canadians agree that the COVID-19 vaccine should be free. Alberta and Quebec have begun charging for the vaccine.

New Leger poll!

And it turns out the biggest loser in the teachers strike is the UCP!

What are the big takeaways?

- 47% of Albertans opposed the government tabling legislation to force teachers back to work, of that 35% strongly opposed it.

We need to look at the REAL EVIDENCE, and the REAL EXPERIENCE... and stop accepting CANNED govt speaking points as a reasonable answer.

This isn't about if you vote right or left.. its about are we getting HC right in this province? Are we on the right trajectory?

Healthcare provision is an essentially moral activity because it should be an "other focused" activity with a goal to alleviate suffering and improve well being. Intentions and outcomes matter.

It requires leadership who have a strong moral compass.

In Canada, this has changed significantly -- the rich have never been richer and a majority of low income renters live in property that solely exists to funnel profits to shareholders via rents and disrepair.
Drawn 133 years ago, and the con hasn't changed one bit.

The news that Lethbridge police got away with stalking, harassing and threatening Phillips because the chance of conviction was too low is an indictment of the entire justice system in Alberta.
