What infuriates me is the arrogance of some #antivaxxers in the #OttawaOccupation claiming they are fighting for my freedoms too. They haven't lost freedom. They lost privileges b/c they CHOSE to be unvaccinated while THOUSANDS of vaccinated lost the right to needed surgeries.
#antivaxxers have not lost Freedom - choices have consequences.
Polls like Angus Reid, a Conservative pollster & that are self-selecting online polls, are giving #antivaxxers a false belief that they are in the majority & that most Canadians support them. They do not. 90% are vaccinated so #MathisHard? You're noisy - full stop.
#antivaxxers' freedom costs tens of thousands of Canadians needed surgeries as they are filling up hospitals so we don't have enough health professionals to accommodate vaccinated patients.
Good luck #abpoli! You'll *finally* need to accept AB is a landlocked Prov that will be subject to tariffs & responsible for BILLIONS of $s needed to cleanup unremediated abandoned wells & your toxic leaking tailing ponds.
Indigenous lands are not yours either.

"...the assessment of naphthenic acids and other substances on the list would begin in June 2025, a year after the government intends to publish the full list of substances for consultation."
@Swiftie01 🤣 zero respect on the international stage:
winner of Five fossil awards & in 2013 a "lifetime unachievment award" for "obstructionist behavior"
@Swiftie01 PET Legacy vs what exactly was Harper's Legacy? Scandals? Authoritarian control of his caucus? Cutting over 20,000 federal servants with Draconian cuts while hiring 3,325 spin doctors?
@Swiftie01 the cuts were truly Draconian & dismantled social programs built over generations. CPC complains about outsourcing & have yet to look in the mirror. the cuts to housing were brutal.

The toxic drug carnage in AB is Poilievre's & Ms Goodridge's preferred system of care for addicted Canadians yet their toxic drug deaths are way up while BC's are dropping & they want to stop #harmreduction & #SaferSupply? SHAME! threadreaderapp.com/thread/1791570…
@LailaGoodridge @CPC_HQ @somerspsych @KmarkovCTV "Deaths in March 2024 are down 11% from March 2023. That’s the fourth month in a row of year-over-year decreases."
Chong conveniently forgets that many Canadians wanted the Senate abolished b/c of its highly partisan nature.
Despite promising less patronage appointments, Stephen Harper pushed 50+ to the Senate that consisted of many CPC staffers, donors & ex-candidates who lost their riding.
Will it dominate the news cycle like so many of #PierrePoilievre's LIES or phony scandals cooked up Journalists with anonymous sources, or will it be a 1-day article?

Why are Conservatives allowed to spew such BS without pushback from Journalists? It's not about blanket decriminalizing hard-core drugs. It's the possession of **small** amounts that won't mean an automatic prison sentence for an addict.
