Remember when a care guarantee was a key element of proposals to address Canadian waiting lists.

Just checking in briefly so the bots etc. don’t think this is a vacant account. There’s still a humanoid being attached to this account.

Hey @AirCanada. After announcing a 2 hour delay to Budapest doesn't make a lot of sense to give meal vouchers 15 minutes before we depart while we are in line.

Oh and just discovered that the 1hr late credit has been reduced from 50% on next trip to 25%
Used to be that when @VIA_Rail was running more than one hour late they would come by with additional service in VIA-1. It seems, no more.

"No single organization alone can address mis- and disinformation in health" Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore speaking in a conference this morning.
Remember #HIMSS26 in 2013 when keynote speaker @EricTopol told everyone that they should be on Twitter and the feed for the hashtag that year was sometimes too fast to follow? Things sure do change.
