If you think bird flu spreading unchecked in mink is dangerous because of adaptation to respiratory transmission in mammals, wait until you see what happens when it gets to do that in humans

I have never seen hospitals this bad. Hospitals are laying off nurses and health care workers while emergency rooms are overflowing and patients are stuck in hallways.
Make it make sense.
Doug Ford has purposefully underfunded our hospitals for years, and now patients and frontline workers are paying the price.
We need MORE nurses, not fewer. #onpoli

One in three Ontarians with a chronic condition is waiting six months or more to see a specialist. Doctors shouldn’t have to use Facebook or WhatsApp groups to find specialists for patients.
Ontario Liberals stand with doctors calling for a centralized referral system.

Gambling-related suicides in Ontario have tripled since Doug Ford’s PCs privatized online casino games and sports betting in 2022.
I asked the Minister of Health what she’s doing to address this crisis. @SylviaJonesMPP failed to offer solutions that actually tackle the root causes of gambling addiction.
The government must act now. Stop advertising online gambling. Prevent gambling harm before it happens.

CTV says Ward 9 is one of Ottawa’s closest races! Your vote can make the difference!
While our current councillor supported a $10-million bicycle initiative, I believe storm sewers and flood prevention should come first.
I’ll work WITH council to deliver on Ward 9 priorities.
4 stars. Does justice to the movie. goodreads.com/review/show/90… #BlazingSaddles #Edelweiss @SimonBooks
