My pregnant daughter in law spent time she didnât have to research the truth about Tylenol & autism after their idiotic claim. You know what? She - & thousands of pregnant women DID NOT NEED THIS. How dare they? The war against women continues. Itâs despicable to ignore actual science

Teachers have on more vote before strike actions commence. But we're hearing that the contract changes aren't that different from the previous iteration. Wonder how that lands with teachers?

These are all still allegations - from potentially multiple independent sources - but it should be noted that the Premier's Chief of Staff directly intervened on behalf of Mr. Prasad... So the Premier would have been aware of all of these concerns... (see affidavit from former AHS CEO)
