A reminder: Covid protections have featured nowhere in the bargaining positions of either CUPE or the Government of Ontario.

You should be wondering why.

#BringBackMasks
#Ventilate2Educate
Anyone who claims to care about students - and doesn’t protect them from potentially disabling illness - is full of it.
And if you have the temerity to demand a 55% pay increase over four years - or throttle labour rights with the notwithstanding clause - and you somehow neglect not disabling my child, you can fuck off repeatedly.
Think this is offensive?

Too bad.

I find disabling and harming tomorrow’s adults profoundly offensive.

Dear friends and followers: an update.

I'm going to be broadening the focus of my commentary beyond primarily Covid to include societal issues related to democracy.

Here's why and how it can benefit you.

/1
The strategy around Covid isn't gaining traction without the support of a broad swath of the population.

We know what works:

1. Masks (#N95-type+ best)
2. Staying up to date on vaccination
3. Isolating when sick
4. Testing to exit isolation
5. Reducing indoor contacts

/2
Tweeting for each other rallies the troops, but doesn't broaden the base.

To build consensus, we have to step outside our echo chamber and reach out to people who might have different views.

I'm shifting my focus from community support to Covid-safe recruitment.

Gentlemen, if you don't wear masks in public, I assume you're flaccid.

#BigMaskEnergy
Shout-out to all the men masking up and rocking #BigMaskEnergy in elastomerics and #N95s.

Is Zainay a doctor or political aspirant?
Look who supported Zain Chagla’s zany comment: the president of Canada’s Airport Council.

“I’m super cautious but…”

A 🧵of cognitive dissonance on unmasking.

All anecdotes are sanitized composites to protect identities.

“My family is super cautious. We wear N95s everywhere. But on weekends, my kid plays travel hockey and is unmasked while playing.”

“I’m taking Covid really seriously and advocate that everyone mask. Let me just take off my mask to give a speech about Covid sequelae at this academic conference I’m attending.”

I have just filed a request for the Ontario Human Rights Commission to initiate a public interest inquiry into the dangers presented by a removal of Covid-19 protections.

A copy of my letter is below. 🧵

To file a similar request, contact legal@ohrc.on.ca

Dear OHRC team,

As you are no doubt aware, Ontario has recently revised its public health guidance regarding protections for the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

/2
The removal of protections puts Ontarians with disabilities at elevated risk of illness and long-term harm from acute infection ("Long Covid" or, within the medical literature, "post-acute sequelae of Covid").
