The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Important public service announcement. Reading it might just save a life.
Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

The SARS Commission, which was formed to investigate Ontario's SARS1 failures, should have ended Henry's career. She was the operational lead & her failures were egregious enough to warrant a commission. Yet BC appointed her anyway & BC was called out for excess deaths & data opacity. Canada: don't.

Of course Poilievre is standing by a candidate who made despicable comments about Indigenous people.
When people show you who they really are, believe them.

I don’t normally do this, but this is a shitty headline because it misrepresents the science (the only study that ever purported to show this was faked, proven so, withdrawn and the doctor had his license suspended) with the “if” but also because you can hit all the same points *without* doing that.

tldr: Kids are getting sick at unprecedented rates because covid is damaging their immune systems, while governments fail to take the necessary steps to reduce viral infections by making indoor spaces safer.
I wish it weren't necessary to keep writing about this. But it is.

This is a spot on observation by @maxfawcett.bsky.social about how Poilievre simply can't meet the moment with Donald Trump.

Regarding the latest Conservative scheme to force an election just as Trump comes to power:
I didn't survive 21 years in Parliament defending a working class and Indigenous constituency to get played for a sucker by Pierre Poilievre and his Vichy Conservatives.

Solar is about 40% of CAISO's (California) electricity at 9 in the morning of December 1, 2024. Gas is about 23%.
Solar is generating more electricity than gas in both Texas & California this December morning.
Few, if anyone, thought that would happen 5 years ago.

A new paper from a pair of Alberta academics makes it clear that the cost of the carbon tax is far less than its critics would like to pretend.

The truth is coming out on the carbon tax
The truth is no match for an honestly told lie. Witness the disconnect between what we know about the carbon tax in Canada and the way it’s perceived by large swathes of the public.
