Today is #VaccineHunting day & this is my 2nd🧵: This morning I failed to connect & book an appt thru the totally screwed up #OntarioVaccineBooking site, I went to check @VaxHuntersCan to see what they had & saw this👇. Here is my "Pop-up" journey. #onpoli
After fighting cross town traffic, I was in this line that stretched 5 blocks long, with the music of thunder & down pour mixed in. Apparently once we got closer to door, the lucky ones will get a winning ticket for the 💉shot, it was lining up for the lottery. #onpoli
Let it be on record - I got to the end of this line at 2:30 pm ET. #onpoli
The line was moving a bit, every now and then, for the first 1/2 hour, and then it STOPPED...Meanwhile, it started to thunder and the rain came again. 🙄#onpoli
Another 20 minutes went by, minimal movements. About 6 ppl ahead me was a family of 4. They sent the mom up to the front to check on the status. She came back and said there were only about 60 tickets left. They knew it was no way they would get theirs, so they left. #onpoli
Remember, I was about six people behind this family. I had a heavy duty raincoat on, but my feet were soaked. The 💉wasn't going to happen. With one last look at the long line, time to call it quit. #onpoli
Conclusion from today's experience:
1. These Pop-up clinics are NOT for the faint of heart. You better have the stamina to stand outside in the elements for at least a hour+.
2. IF the Ontario Vaccine Booking system isn't so screwed up, we wouldn't need these popup clinics! This is a #FordVaccineFailure!!! #VoteFordOut2022 #VotePCPOout #onpoli
"Just because you can, doesn't mean you will" - there you have it, my new slogan for #OntarioVaccineHunting #onpoli

🧵Got on my computer this morning to book my 2nd #CovidVaccine shot. An hour wait... no problem, I have nothing else planned. Booking this appointment was my mission today. #onpoli
An hour later, I finally got redirected to the booking site. Entered all the information, and put in my location. The earliest and closest appointment I can find is Jun 23, 15km away. That's OK, I can live with that. #onpoli
I went there, it gave 4 "available" time slots. I click on one - no longer available. Clicked on the 2nd, not available. Clicked on all four, none available. 😠 #onpoli

🧵‘Grossly unfair to one & all’ 👉"Military law expert Michel Drapeau, a retired colonel, said the way the Fortin probe has proceeded is “unprecedented,” & “grossly unfair to one and all.” #cdnpoli thestar.com/politics/feder…
“I’m clearly on the side of sexual assault victims and I defend a number of them, but not to the degree that it would be unfair and have no justice and no fairness to those who are at the receiving end of it,” Drapeau said. #cdnpoli
“I think we can do both and we must do both.” #cdnpoli

#FreedomHKG Thread: from a FB post - Important timeline 👉 有人問我,點解民眾唔可以和平表達訴求,到底點樣先會完。
Some people asked me why the public can't present their opinions in a peaceful way, and how all these turmoils would come to an end.
但與其講件事可以點樣完,倒不如講下件事係點樣開始。
Instead of focusing on how these turmoils would end, maybe we should look back and see how all these started.
