COVID longue : « Ça va faire presque 2 ans que ma blonde, constamment épuisée, dort dans le noir plus de 20h par jour» Les témoignages d’aujourd’hui sont ceux de Mathieu et d’Andréanne qui s’occupent tous les deux d’un proche atteint de la COVID longue.

yep, I have almost 6 weeks vacation, plus EL, plus sick leave, and parental leave up to 69 weeks, holidays, all paid. I also have universal health care #Canada The US is behind most countries when it comes to these things, there is no work/life balance.

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469. Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by. It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

New measles case confirmed on flight from Madrid to Montreal People on board flight AC835 and who were present at the airport's arrivals and baggage area between 3:51 p.m. and 6:20 p.m. on January 8, may have been exposed to the measles virus. montrealgazette.com/news/health/...

If you’re an administrator of a school, I need you to understand: ‘Butts in seats’ is immoral & counterproductive. Sick people make sick people. When one is sick, they aren’t actually present. When you get that, come back, I’ll help you achieve that goal of high attendance. It’s my expertise.

In 2026, my dog Berton and I are going to embark on a coast-to-coast-coast journey around Canada. I'll be documenting the journey in videos and in a planned book. It will focus a lot on Canada's history. You can support the fundraiser here 👇 gofund.me/11ffcbfba

It’s such a mindfuck to see articles & TV shows trying to sensitively reflect on the ongoing COVID pandemic—but doing so only in the past tense, or as if it were a horrible event that ended in 2022 & is all behind us now & we just need to deal with the psychological after effects. It ain’t over.

Voilà c'est corrigé, de rien ! #Covid #CovidLong

On this day in 1938, Gordon Lightfoot was born in Orillia, Ontario. Considered one of Canada's greatest songwriters, he won 16 Juno Awards and has a star on Canada's Walk of Fame. He had four #1 albums in Canada, most of which went platinum.

So Safeway tried this "Superior Service with a Smile policy" like what Target is trying back in the 90s women employees were harassed so much some hid in the back trying to get away from male customers. Sometimes the dudes followed the employees to their car after their shifts. Sounds super safe.

I have no idea.

My husband and I were at a busy mall yesterday wearing our N95s, and we saw only one other person wearing a N95). I was going to hug him but restrained myself (I embarrass my husband enough). Please consider masking with N95s along with getting vaccinated. I promise I won’t hug you either.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

There’s a historic indoor clean air high level event at the UN today. @drbronking.bsky.social is of course leading by example wearing a high quality mask while chairing the meeting 👏👏👏

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

@ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social A reminder that 1 in 10 and probably higher now have #Longcovid Labour wouldn’t have such a large health benefits bill if you focused on health preventions. Instead you are cutting vaccines and failing to roll #Cleanair www.bbc.com/news/article...

BBC News captures Doctor Who himself Sylvester McCoy at the Trump protest seemingly unaware of who they're interviewing.

Networks—especially ABC, Disney, Hulu, and CBS—need to hear this: you’re standing on the wrong side of history, bending the knee to authoritarianism before the fight even begins, even though the law’s on your side. You’re losing viewers. We’re not going to stand w/you when you’re not standing w/us!

Media execs have fallen prey to a propaganda and harassment campaign that has completely divorced them from what people actually want right now. Both their insular information environments (group chats, podcasts) and ambient noise (Twitter reactionaries) have put them in a very stupid bubble.

“What the administration is doing violates the First Amendment and the Communications Act,” Anna Gomez (the FCC’s lone Democratic commissioner) told TNR's Greg Sargent, noting that the government is “using the public interest standard to go after anything it doesn’t like.” trib.al/oejJkrD

So, they’re going to charge $180 for a COVID vaccine instead…. That should reduce ER visits, hien? The stupid just burns bright here. #cdnpoli #quebec www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We’re not dealing with the threat of authoritarianism anymore. We’re already there. 🚨 Trump floats stripping networks critical of him of their broadcast licenses — “They’re giving me all this bad press, and they’re getting a license” 1/4

La semaine dernière au Québec, 200 nouveaux patients hospitalisés avec la Covid, et 8 décès. Ma blonde travaille avec de aînées. Elle n'est pas personnellement à grand risque (sauf pour la Covid longue, hein?), mais avec un vaccin elle a 2 fois moins de chances d'infecter une aînée. Misère...

J'ai créé un exemple de lettre en anglais et en français à envoyer à votre député et au ministre de la Santé au Québec pour leur demander de garder le vaccin COVID-19 accessible et sans frais! N'hésitez pas à partager avec toutes les personnes vivant au Québec!

Maintenir le vaccin COVID-19 sans frais au Québec! Voici un modèle de courriel pour signaler votre inquiétude suite à l'annonce récente selon laquelle les vaccins contre la COVID-19 coûteront désormais entre $ 150 et $ 180 dollars chacun : docs.proton.me/doc?mode=ope...

150-180$ pour un vaccin je pense que rfk est devenu le responsable de la santé publique au québec, mais qu'on a oublié de faire l'annonce sérieusement, ça renforce le message que les vaccins, pas juste celui pour la covid, sont inutiles
