@premierbhiggs⁩ it is not the jurisdiction of school boards to “out” LGBTQ kids. Your job is to facilitate the education of all these young people in compliance to human rights policies bound to equity and inclusion. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
As an Acadian and Mi’kmaw person my people have always had love for people of all genders and gender preferences because diversity of perspective it gives on life is insightful and valued. We love all. The English always put people in categories of race, class, gender etc. Why?
My people never even had words for black people until they attended schools in New Brunswick. These concepts of intolerance were imported like an invasive species of the mind. It is toxic thinking. You have laws and human rights to uphold and they are there for all not just some. ImageImage

@ElsipogtogBand Acadians never had reserves called as such because our land grants predated Canada and we were like slaves to the Charles Robin Jersey Fishing Company. Pommenville aka Sommerville created the Elsipogtog Reserve. This grave is seen in my village in Caraquet.
We all go back a long long way. Our families are interwoven branches of the same tree. Glad to see your folks are still alive and kicking. 😊❤️
I am of Caraquet and there is a great film about what my family survived here. View 52 minutes for the censored history of Canada. nfb.ca/film/tintamarr…

@TheMattyBlake the hands of Portugal aquifers are salamander hands. The hind paws have the five toes.
I am Acadian of Henri Membertou’s line. I am of the line that knew salamanders meant a water supply safe to drink. The knowledge was kept hidden because it was worth money to know that. The secret is at Renne le Chateau too not far from my family’s area of Avranches.
To know you could build in an area without a visible river was like a secret knowledge. You could buy such lands and make money building a village or city. The salamander the indicator species of primary recharge. I spent decades protecting them to protect Moraines in Ontario.

"On 30 January [2020], we were telling the 🌍 there's going to be a flood"-@DrMikeRyan

Over 4⃣3⃣3⃣ million confirmed cases almost 6⃣ million deaths have been reported globally.The cases and deaths are declining overall, some countries are lifting measures, but the pandemic is far from over.
To help countries respond the #COVID19 pandemic effectively, WHO published over 280 guidance documents, covering various topics:

📃Infection prevention & control
📃Laboratory testing
📃Travel advice
📃Clinical management
📃Home care

Before I take a break, I have decided to update this personal tweet. An update on day 18 of Omicron and why I’d like to share.

1/
The first 5 days I isolated from my family, and experienced the expected general Covid symptoms but managed.

Unfortunately my health worsened from day 6 on, requiring additional outpatient/A&E treatment to help turn the tide, and after 11 days I was admitted to 🏥.

2/
At this point you are mostly tired, realise you need to hang tight, stay calm, trust medics, your colleagues, to find a way to turn the tide for you. That point it starts to become scary too.

After a bumpy ride, I am now on the mend. Day 17, I went home.

This was not mild

Now do you see why Vince named his son Shane?

Now do you see why Wrestling plays A very important role in all of this by hiding so much truth in plain sight?

Literally, EVERYTHING was done to make sure 1 Child was born & grew up to do all the things he had to do for EVERYONE
To be saved ..

J.F.K. way back then, he was A wall, standing in between evil & the time .. Many others inherited their roles through their families/bloodline, they all followed A script, did their parts making sure evil people/beings in this world didn’t change A timeline
That needed to happen in order for EVERYONE to wake up in time to be saved ..

Interstellar Chess ..

1/ Q: Case numbers are jumping QUICK! What should I be doing?

A: Share your gifts without sharing COVID. Helpful gestures come in many shapes.

#Omicron #ThoseNerdyGirls
2/ One HUGE help: Cancel non-essential plans.

Unfortunately, this includes New Year’s Eve plans. The perfect storm of a new variant & holiday get-togethers is hitting communities & health care w/ FORCE! Testing is in short supply.
3/ Health care is under extreme pressure with surging cases. If you can avoid even one additional contact, you are helping. This is a temporary and urgent request (from a health care provider).

The Technical Advisory Group on SARS-CoV-2 Virus Evolution met today to review what is known about the #COVID19 variant B.1.1.529.
They advised WHO that it should be designated a Variant of Concern.
WHO has named it Omicron, in line with naming protocols bit.ly/3r8YrEd
The designation of Variant of Concern means:
🔴 countries should share genome sequences
🔴 report initial cases/clusters to WHO
🔴 perform field investigations & lab assessments to understand impacts, epidemiology, severity, effectiveness of public health & social measures
This new #COVID19 Variant of Concern Omicron underscores the need to accelerate #VaccinEquity and get COVID-19 vaccines to health workers, older people and others at risk who still have not received their first and second doses.

THREAD:✅The Covid-19 'vaccines' went public after skipping basic safety & effectiveness criteria like challenges trials & double blinds.

Covid 'vaccines' were tested (on healthy people) to limit symptoms whilst your immune system does what it would regardless. 1/

Previous vaccines made available to the public had years of testing. The Covid-19 'vaccines' are very different. They skipped basic stages to ensure it could be passed for emergency use. When you’re invited for a vaccine, just say no. 2/

Every vaccination is a potential vector for ADE & dozens of other potential health problems.

Observe the millions already vaccinated, see what happens to them this winter, to protect yourself & others.

"Globally, the #COVID19 pandemic continues to intensify. Cases have now increased for the 9th straight week, & deaths have increased for the 6th straight week. To put it in perspective, there were almost as many cases 🌍 last week as in the 1st 5 months of the pandemic"-@DrTedros

Today marks my 1st ‘Covid anniversary’.

A year ago I woke up with a headache, but only later that day, when a dry cough kicked in, did I realise ‘this must be it’

I remember being surprised & annoyed, though not afraid knowing the odds were in my favour. 1/8
I was only afraid of passing the virus on, so we focused directly on self isolation.

I was anticipating 1-2 weeks of flu-like symptoms after which I was certain to return to ‘the pandemic frontline’.

That worked out differently, and weeks later I even ended up in hospital 2/8
I did also not expect #longcovid to be an alternate outcome, let alone that I would suffer from and write about it 3 months later.

In June I wrote this piece to create awareness, emphasise societal impact, explain importance of research to gain knowledge & guide treatment 3/8

1/7 Short🧵 (@WHO has issued a new ventilation roadmap for #COVID19 ... keep reading!)

Transmission of #SARSCoV2 is a function of how, when and where transmission is occurring and the interventions that are in place.



@DrTedros @DrMariaNeira @DrMikeRyan
2/ When assessing potential #COVID19 exposure risk consider: location, proximity, and time

3/ Let's take a closer look at location: studies show that the risk of #SARSCoV2 transmission is higher indoors compared to outdoors, and particularly risky in indoor settings with poor ventilation, especially where people spend long periods of time. #COVID19

Thanks to everyone for their words of support this evening, including the #WeStandWithDrHirji tag. I’m deeply humbled by the volume & breadth of support. More importantly, I’m gratified that so many are speaking up against violent language—such discourse corrodes our unity. 1/6
The excessive anger of a few today should not distract from the suffering of many during this pandemic—of social isolation, of loss of income, of losing a business built through a life’s work. Frustration is understandable. Their tragedies aren’t receiving the attention I am. 2/6
The inequalities of our society have been amplified by the pandemic. We have much to do to create true equality & unity. I hope we can increasingly focus on rectifying this, & continue to reduce inequities after the pandemic is over. 3/6
