Gas stoves emit methane, nitrogen dioxide and fine particulates at levels known to contribute to asthma and cardiovascular disease.

🧪 NEW STUDY: The annual indoor health cost of a single gas stove = $5,258

A big part this is from childhood asthma.

That "clean" gas stove? It's costing you a fortune in health.

UPDATE: Canada has announced that it has lost its measles elimination status.

This is a direct result of the increase in anti-vax disinformation, which has caused large, sustained outbreaks in the country over the last year.

It's not amnesia. It's reality avoidance and, in many cases, willful ignorance
“I think there’s a collective amnesia right now about COVID-19”

This is absolutely chilling and sickening. I want to not believe this is happening but I know it's true. A big fat spotlight needs to shine on them to expose them for who they are.

Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly.

Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer.

Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.

Canada has lost its measles elimination status after nearly three decades due to its failure to curb a year-long outbreak, the country's public health agency said on Monday.

The irony is strong with @abdaniellesmith, folks.

Why does Alberta need a 1MM b/d pipeline to the West Coast when it will soon have another 400k b/d to the south?

And another 300k if TMX ever optimizes?

Don't forget the additional 250k available if other southbound pipelines optimize.

Hell, from the 1980s all the way through the Harper years, support for relatively *high* immigration enjoyed a bipartisan, cross-ideological consensus in Canada. Only now, with this fucked up right-wing populist bullshit happening, have we started turning against it.
I kind of feel this way too. Conservatives used to be all about fiscal responsibility and low taxes and low immigration and all. Now they’re just cuckoo bananas.

Those animals were culled quickly because that ground zero for radicals could have blown up into a dangerous incident. An elderly neighbour was already assaulted, threats made, they probably had weapons on the property. It could have become convoy 2.0.
