Innocent bystanders? I think Canadians are the innocent bystanders. most small business owners voted for trump. receipts below www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/b...

“300 million people died last year from drugs”. The reporter just let it go. 😳

Three students were tragically killed today in a mass shooting in Colorado. My sincere sympathies go out to everyone traumatized by this violence. Anyone commenting on the tragic death of Charlie Kirk today should also publicly acknowledge and grieve for these families.

I opened my X account today for the first time in a while. 🤢

Trump just made coffee a whole lot more expensive in the US. Gladly, we have lots of coffee choices in Canada that bypass the US.

I just got absolutely roasted on FB for saying that lighting someone on fire is not a good thing.

People are posting as if the evil spell is breaking. I am not so sure, will believe when it’s over.

I'm not one of those anti-medication girlies—if you have a loved one in #hospice, you should work with their team to make sure they're getting the meds they need to keep them comfortable. But there are lots of other ways you can increase their comfort without medical help! #deathpositive #endoflife

Can they make a law, banning doctors from naming disorders after themselves!

Jon’s videos provide great info for patients and families. Wirth a look!

“unidentified agents in unmarked white vans showed up at Home Depot to round up day laborers. They surrounded small businesses and mom-and-pop restaurants to detain people working in garment factories and as service workers. They picked up parents at elementary school graduations and churches.”

The deeper problem — many did vote for this.

The US is collapsing in real time, but American media continue to normalize, an utter failure. Heaven help them, and us!

“This week is the third anniversary of the day that a jury favored Depp over Heard. Looking back, the whole situation can be read as a portent for the 2024 election of Donald Trump.” www.salon.com/2025/06/02/j...

OMG!

Well, many Manitobans are watching in real life right now. Climate change is happening and having tangible effects. We need to address CO2 emissions emergently!

The evidence suggests that hospitalists are more accurate and more optimistic in predicting survival benefit from critical care support, yet decisions are often made without their input.

The findings in this study have implications for patient advocacy when ICU supports are withheld. annalsofintensivecare.springeropen.com/articles/10....

There is a long history of canada and the US helping each other fight forest fires. In January Canadian water bombers went to California and helped out. Now Manitoba is burning and….

I think CNN should spend more time on the mental acuity of the current occupant, rather than the previous one.

Manitoba is on fire. “Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it.”

They say this raises questions. I think it answers them. www.cnn.com/2025/05/11/p...

MYTH: #PalliativeCare is only for the last days and weeks of life FACT: Palliative care is so much more than end-of-life care, it can help people and their loved ones anywhere on their journey with a serious illness. www.bc-cpc.ca/all-resources/hcp-resources2/palliative-care-myths-busted/#PalliativeCare #NHPCW

“What difference does it make? She is palliative.” This is one of the most frustrating attitudes in medicine

Asked directly whether it’s his duty to uphold the Constitution, Trump said, “I don’t know.” www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

It’s National Physicians’ Day in Canada. Come get your muffin! 🙃 www.cma.ca/about-us/wha...

This kind of finger pointing gets the dems nowhere. @johnpavlovitz.bsky.social blame does not solve your problems, nor will at attract anyone. If you want to move forward, then move forward. Get braver, listen, build a bigger tent.

🤯 Pretty bad look McGill.

my advice for Canadians going to the polls: think about the most disadvantaged person that you know, then vote in a way that would help them.

The most merciful words in scripture: Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”

If what you want us ongoing failure to control the addiction epidemic, then go ahead, keep your focus on “enforcement”! For the record, policing can’t treat an illness. We need to address the reasons people become addicted, provide supports for those who are, not more prosecution.

A very convincing study pointing to airborne transmission of SARS-2

Family members experience high stress and want to be involved when their loved one is critically ill. Family presence in rounds help families remain involved in care. cjccn.ca/featured-art...

Harm reduction strategies work to prevent death and other serious consequences of addiction. They give people a chance to survive and connect them with treatments. We need more reporting like this. Thx @wfpdlett.bsky.social

“if you’re concerned about the number of opioid overdoses, the last thing in the world you would do is close supervised consumption sites.” www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/2025/0...

Great challenges offer great opportunities. Canada, including Manitoba can offer a great place for disheartened US academics, but MBGov must step up and offer funding to make it possible! Thx @maggiemacintosh.bsky.social winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews... via @WinnipegNews

Fact checking is one of the most important roles of journalism. If CTV wont fulfill this role, they become little more than horse-race analysts, not newscasters @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social
