Do you think Jewish women are annoying, catty, and live to find a husband? Do you think gentile women are cool, funny, and much more dynamic in every way? Then do I have a Netflix series for you!

When I went through security at Pearson, the one agent asked me to unmask and I said no. She said ok and let me go.

I literally haven’t had a cold in five years.
N95s can prevent more than just Covid!
They stop colds, flus and other airborne illness.
They’re also highly effective against pollen, pollution, wildfire smoke and environmental triggers.
Many maskers haven’t been sick in years.
Respirators are pretty amazing.

Vaccinated to protect against severe illness.
Masked to protect against transmission.
Layer those protections!

Nova Scotia, our Covid forecast is now severe. About 1 of every 58 people is infected. Wear a well-fitted mask (like an N95) in public spaces. Open windows or meet outside. Booking for Covid & flu vaccines is now available.

Scientists literally drawing connections between Covid and AIDS and y’all still not masking.

some are called prisoners, not hostages. some are legally not allowed to celebrate (you read that right).
some have no towns to return to - they are all rubble.
some are still not “brought home.”
none of us are free until we’re all free. or did you forget?

The Covid vaccine rollout across Canada, but especially in Nova Scotia, is about administrative ease, not infection control, population health, or public health. We know there's an annual wave around September, yet nothing changes. Another year of failure.

Wearing a mask is an act of resistance.
It helps protect your health and the health of those around you.
It tells the government you don’t believe anyone is expendable.
It says you value community care.
It shows solidarity with the disability community.
