Fox News anchor, Jesse Watters finds it “personally offensive” that Canadians refuse to be annexed by the US: “That’s what everyone in the world wants—American citizenship.”

American Imperialism is on full show.

Hey @royalsociety.org what are Elon Musk's qualifications for being a member of United Kingdom's national academy of sciences? 🤔🤔
Are you serious @royalsociety.org?? He is trying to destroy science, spreading dangerous misinformation, inciting violence & your response is to do nothing?

So what’s your purpose then? What do you exist for? Other than being elite?

To Consent and to Refuse Electroconvulsive Therapy: A Study of Consent Documents and Court Orders in the Province of Quebec, Canada

With Audrey Ferron Parayre & Delphine Gauthier-Boiteau
To Consent and to Refuse Electroconvulsive Therapy: A Study of Consent Documents and Court Orders in the Province of Quebec, Canada
The objective of this article is to offer a critical analysis of policies and practices concerning consent and refusal of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in terms of their compliance with the legal principles concerning consent to treatment. Using the province of Quebec, Canada, as a case study, we first identified consenting documents and court orders for ECT treatments; we then critically appraised them using National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines on ECT as a gold standard. We find that consent documents suffer lack of clarity and transparency regarding ECT’s medical indication, risks, and benefits. The review of court orders reveals a paucity of information pertaining to the diagnosis, clinical indications, benefits, and potential risks associated with ECT for patients who lack the capacity for consent.

ProPublica has released a series of remarkable reports on the horrors of homelessness, illuminating more evidence of how we inflict deep, exceptionally cruel, and systemic violence against already vulnerable people. It doesn't have to be this way.

Oh, look: The thing that Canadian immigration law experts said would happen, happened

Closing safe routes for asylum seekers doesn't reduce the number of asylum seekers. It increases irregular movement, enriches smugglers & puts lives at risk
