One plane forced to reroute because of a SpaceX explosion last year was running low on fuel, prompting the pilot to declare an emergency and fly the jet and its 283 passengers through a designated debris zone to reach an airport. (Published Jan.)

Bystander response is the primary driver of a choking person’s outcome, so ensuring people know the safest and most effective way to care for a choking person can save lives. Three experts explain. 🥦

This article pretends that these are normal negotiations, with give and take. They’re not. Most importantly, it assumes that Trump can be trusted to keep his word. He can’t. Which makes *any* concessions pointless because the US could simply change its mind tomorrow, treaty be damned.

It was bad before Dobbs, but it’s been getting worse. And we *knew* this was coming— Court-ordered major surgery against someone’s will. The violation of autonomy, let alone informed consent, is a violation of human rights. www.propublica.org/article/flor...

I am begging my fellow Canadians to take a break for a second from obsessing about American corruption to focus on our home grown versions. Ford is a corrupt crony goon who has done countless shady backroom deals. He wants to remove one of our most powerful tools to hold him accountable. Fuck that!

only tech companies can so easily get away with being so deeply corrosive to a healthy society

A man who can start a war in the Middle East then just declare victory no matter the reality is certainly capable of losing an election then just declaring victory.

Every hospital in England has been urged to disobey an NHS directive to use software operated by controversial US analytics software company Palantir www.bmj.com/content/392/...

We’ve all seen the Alberta government do outrageous things to undermine safety of drug war and houselessness survivors. But now you can add fabricating data and omitting conflicts of interest in a peer-reviewed study to the list. drugdatadecoded.ca/centre-of-re...

They are copying nearly every retrogressive change implemented by Alberta’s UCP government to further limit access and dissuade people from using access to information

NEW from me: Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation Chief Sheldon Sunshine has penned a letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney calling the recent federal-provincial co-operation agreement a “dangerous mistake.” www.albertanativenews.com/chief-sunshi...

The Pentagon dismantled its civilian protection effort as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made “lethality” a top priority and the Trump administration reorganized national security around two principles: more aggression, less accountability.

Alberta has refused to exempt Indigenous people from the $100 fee for COVID vaccines. And though health advocates contend that amounts to a treaty violation, the federal government won't step in. pressprogress.ca/alberta-char...

I have a million thoughts but I'll say this : Men's suffering is *always* treated as more important than the suffering of women. Sexual assault survivors actually have the highest rates of PTSD in the world, but that never gives us pity or leeway. Men on the other hand? Kid gloves.

82 days is 81 days too long to notify parents about an incident of sexual abuse at a daycare centre. 5 months is an egregious time to wait for the UCP to take action. youtube.com/shorts/Rzaao...

Hardcastle told me she’s skeptical of the government’s motive for seizing these individualized personal health data given the Compassionate Intervention Act: “Is that data going to be used to... identify people that may, in their view, require intervention?" drugdatadecoded.ca/centre-of-re...

Dr Lorian Hardcastle told me the way the Alberta government is using personal data for ‘research’ on people who use drugs could cause real harm: “We're potentially targeting people for criminalization or involuntary treatment. The consequences are significant." drugdatadecoded.ca/centre-of-re...

Under RFK Jr., the federal government is taking aim at not just fluoridated water but also fluoride supplements. The FDA announced efforts to restrict the sale of certain fluoride products to children and has issued a warning about their risks to health care professionals.

The President is the pigeon shitting on the chessboard. #usPoli

While our Premier continues to declare we have enough healthcare workers, she continues to put them out of work and simultaneously declare we need private healthcare to save the public system. She is intentionally breaking the public system in order to bring in fully private healthcare. #abPoli

Alberta hospitals already routinely discharge elderly patients too soon, and without access to home supports (it can take weeks to months to get home care established), causing setbacks/re-injury, re-admissions, and then longer hospital stays. #abPoli

"Every dollar directed toward normalizing AI art generation is a dollar that didn’t go toward a muralist, a poet, a filmmaker, a ceramicist... Every institutional stamp of approval on this technology makes the next round of cuts to human artists that much easier to justify."

Having similarly dealt with far-right characters I’ve reported on engage in stalking / harassing behaviour to the point where lawyers needed to be engaged, I can say Canada’s laws are completely insufficient to deal with these problems and I have zero trust in the legal system to protect journalists

Pete Hegseth's murderous buffoonery, coming amid a lifetime in which he's betrayed everyone close to him and failed up from one disaster to the next, is a perfect example of how the appeal of Trumpism is that it creates a permission structure for people to openly be their worst selves

“People are unsure if they’re going to be able to maintain housing. People are wondering if they’re going to be able to eat. People are really scared, and it’s causing a tremendous amount of anxiety and stress," said Inclusion Alberta CEO Trish Bowman.. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
