"I don’t wonder whether food banks are being exploited. I know they are — by governments that have normalized hunger and downloaded the work of care onto volunteers and donors.

I am interested in exploring 'Why are we more afraid of someone getting extra than someone going hungry?'"

David Frum thinks recognizing Aboriginal title - i.e. Indigenous sovereignty over land - was a thing "invented" by today's Canadian courts. As opposed to, y'know, a thing recognized by the Royal Proclamation of 1763, over a century before the country of Canada existed.
Moving into David Frum’s house to start an open-pit mine in his living room. Confident he won’t stand for “the country’s courts…inventing new obstacles to development.”

not too late for a flu shot btw, flu historically often peaks in february and by all accounts it is pretty bad this year
Flu deaths exceeded COVID deaths last winter and we may be on track for the same thing this year!
I can speak anecdotally that at the hospital I work at we’ve had very low covid census. We test anyone experiencing respiratory symptoms, and we’ve had very few people with Covid who have needed to be hospitalized. Which is a relief because we are absolutely inundated with flu rn

As month end approaches, I have to post our reminder that we gratefully accept kokum gifts that help us and many others survive right now. I live on a small pension raising teens and it helps so much to have beautiful souls who care about us. It is a lot to overcome alone. Love to all this day💞🪶

Hello repro writers from the mid to late 20 teens - I just discovered Cosmopolitan at some point pulled almost every politics/repro story from the 5 years I wrote for them offline (except two, which they put under someone else's name and gave me "additional reporting" which it very much was not)

The SaskParty has an enormous war chest via their major donors and buddies they owe favours to.
