The arguments for dropping mask mandates in hospitals are insane. The lack of logical reasoning & critical thinking is both astonishing & frightening. This is madness that will literally lead to continued mass disabling from #CovidIsNotOver & other airborne diseases. #AHS #Ableg
Covid causes brain damage. Repeat infections worsen the risk of long term harm.

1/ NEW REPORT: Our first ever Canadian Pension Climate Report Card reveals Canada’s major pension funds are not on track to protect pensions from the worsening #climatecrisis or to align their portfolios with a safe climate future. #cdnpoli

A 🧵. Read on! shiftaction.ca/reportcard2022
2/ Canada's pensions must do much more to develop and implement credible Paris-aligned climate action plans, fulfill their fiduciary duty to invest in members’ best long-term interests, and protect retirement security in a world that limits global heating to 1.5°C. #cdnpoli
3/ The report finds a high level of inconsistency among pension funds with a collective >$2 trillion in AUM, with the degree of urgency, detail, transparency, and ambition varying widely for managing climate-related risks and opportunities across the sector. #climaterisk #cdnpoli

A thread…

This video has been making the rounds on Twitter.

This is @MichaelFordTO - Minister of Multiculturalism and nephew of @fordnation…highlighting the 900 people of Indian heritage that currently live in Ontario.

#onpoli

1/
900. Nine. Zero. Zero.
In Ontario.

A quick google search indicates over 750,000 people of Indian heritage in the province. It took about 30 secs to find that info.

One would think the Minister of Multiculturalism would have access to the same info I have.

#onpoli

2/
All jokes aside…this is emblematic of the @fordnation govt in so many ways.

We see a minister who is woefully unqualified put in a position simply because of who he’s related to…ineptitude rewarded by nepotism…classic Doug Ford.

Yet this is just the veneer.

Hey Twitter!

It's my birthday, and for my gift this year I would love it if you could all help me shill for Big Mask™ by sharing this 🧵

@DonateMask is a 100% volunteer-run registered Canadian charity that was created to provide high-quality masks to those who need them, in order to bridge the gap for the most vulnerable Canadians while waiting for the various levels of government and corporation to step up

@DonateMask their PPE supply game. Sadly that hasn't happened, so they are now the main supplier of N95-type masks for those who can't afford them otherwise. They also give out free RATs now, which is helpful to those whose provinces aren't distributing the free ones from the feds very

1/ As if the #opioid crisis and the pending #ONhealth ED collapse weren’t enough, @OntariosDoctors section on Addiction Medicine warning OAT clinics across Ontario could see service disruptions as of Dec 1, 2022 (ironically #internationalaids day)
2/ At issue is the implementation of the new virtual care codes which will slash fees for video consultations with new patients— patients in rural or remote areas without access to specialists are likely to be most impacted. #onpoli #onhealth
3/The irony is that #mentalhealth in #ontario was pioneering in establishing the virtual care capacity that got us through #covid. Many community-based #buprenorphine programs in rural and remote areas operated virtually prior to the pandemic, increasing #accessibility to OAT.

"[If] we cannot call out when the [Nuremberg Code] has been broken, then what was the point of it in the first place?"

"I understand that some people were shocked by the fact that I was willing to point out how governments throughout history have broken the Nuremberg Code. Including right here in Canada."
"As an international lawyer, I look at the Nuremberg Code as an important legal document, and as a free Canadian, I believe it is my duty to speak up when we even come close to breaking any of the ten principles enshrined in it."

🧵My letter to @fordnation:

Mr. Ford, is the money really worth it? Does making your already rich friends even richer really outweigh providing healthcare to every Ontarian, regardless of their financial status?

#onpoli #onhealth
I urge you to please truly consider that people will die under privatization.

I have personally benefitted from our Canadian public #healthcare. I have a $50,000+ defibrillator implanted in my body that has saved me from cardiac arrest on 3 occasions.
I got this life-saving device at a time when I did not have workplace benefits, so if not for public healthcare, I would not have been able to afford it.

I did nothing to deserve my congenital heart defect, other than be born with it.

1. (THREAD) On February 11th of 2021 the announcement of delaying march break in Ontario was made, the reason for this was to combat the unpredictable & ever changing Covid-19 situation in Ontario. That very day Ontario reported 945 new cases with a positivity rate of 2.3%.
2. Fast forward to 2022, Ontario despite limited testing is reporting 1,787 new cases of Covid-19 with a positivity rate of 10.2% and now is when the government is considering DROPPING the provincial mask mandates by the end of march break.
3. We aren’t done with Covid-19 nor are Ontarian’s done with suffering the devastating effects of this virus, the government of Ontario is done with trying to look after its people & get us to a safe place before reopening. #onpoli #onhealth
