Just a reminder. Covid conscious people are engaging in individual public health recommendations, while community PH has been abandoned. We're a misplaced, visible target for anger canada.ca/en/public-health/s… @PHAC @GovCanHealth @ONThealth @TOPublicHealth #CovidIsNotOver

Anyone who has used the big Canadian accounting firms know that junior, entry-level accountants cycle through regularly. Junior, entry-level accountants are generally in the process of preparing to write the CFE and the mandatory 30-month practical work experience term in order to obtain their CPA. It's mind-boggling that accounting firms are now hiring foreign accountants in a city such as Toronto when many recent Canadian accounting need those jobs to be able to fulfill the requirements for professional designation. This doesn't just rob young Canadian accounting grads of real job opportunities, it also makes it far harder for them to take and pass the qualifying exams they need to become CPAs. ⬇️⬇️⬇️
KPMG is trying to hire 15 foreign accountants in downtown Toronto at $80,000+ each. In four days, Mark Carney will let corporations hire high wage occupations from abroad without even trying to hire a Canadian first. Toronto’s unemployment rate is sitting at 7% with youth unemployment at 17%. KPMG should be hiring and training Canadians, not getting a free pass to bypass local workers.

Never good faith bargaining (How when theres never bargaining, just corruption).
By the time @fordnation returns after his 4 month winter holiday it will be a year that all school staff have been trying to negotiate contracts. @PaulCalandra & @fordnation are hiding. Dictatorship ontario government.

@OntHospitalAssn Your members are liable for this if they don't fight back against #Austerity #Sabotage #NursePatientRatio There has been no good faith effort by govt, hospitals, etc. #WorkplaceSafety #PatientSafety demands #MinimumNationalStandards & end to negligent austerity
With ongoing RN layoffs in Ontario, we’re seeing situations where ONE nurse is caring for TEN patients in acute care. It should be one nurse to four patients. This is not sustainable for nurses or patients. Nurses are bearing the brunt of these cuts, but patients pay the price too. We need safe staffing, not more pressure on nurses to do more with less. Are we really going to keep watching this happen and do nothing? #onpoli

If you or someone you know is an attorney, please reach out by email or DM. I am interested in the following expertise: -Cyberharassment -Social media libel law -Online public harassment of patients on their deathbed -Online public gaslighting of patients with chronic disease shortly before they die by suicide -Multi-platform public cyberharassment of multiple scientists -Cyberharassment, gaslighting, and suicide death encouragement by anonymous and pseudo-anonymous "big follower" social media accounts Please also feel free to reach out from the perspective of the patient or other victims or survivors. Any dual expertise in Australia (perp) to US (victim) relations is especially encouraged. These issues are much broader and severe than originally anticipated, and there is documented employer and social media platform negligence in response to multiple protective requests, so an attorney with appropriate expertise may be able to do a lot of good to help the families involved and prevent future cyberharassment, silencing, and death.

Saving $ for #PreferentialTreatment leading to life-threatening illness is depraved & should result in criminal charges + removal of government #onpoli #canpoli #onhealth @LGOntario @GGCanada @docdanielle @JessicaBellTO @RCMPONT @OPP_News @TorontoPolice 1/2
Doug Ford changed the rules so women can only get tested every 5 years while Xennials and Gen-X have never been eligible for free coverage of Guardasil under OHIP. This is entirely predictable. ontario.ca/page/cervical-can…

Background: Health Minister Sylvia Jones is aggressively rolling out a Medical Priority Dispatch System to regional Ambulance Communications Centres across Ontario to SAVE MONEY. So now you may die at home instead of in her hospital. She saves money on ambulances and hospitals.

Doug Ford destroys Ontario place. Therme builds a data center on that land. Chairman of Therme is President of Palantir Canada. Cohere gets 3.5b to use that data center. Cohere works with Palantir. Palantir is the tech department of the Military Industrial Complex. #TOpoli

ICYMI: Cohere is being sued by TorStar in New York. "New York judge Colleen McMahon labelled Cohere’s arguments 'without merit' and said the publishers have made 'adequate' allegations." thecanadianpressnews.ca/busi…
Say, isn’t Cohere being sued by a host of Canadian (and American) media outlets? Just sayin’. #canada #journalists #cdnpoli #AI #cdnmedia #MarkCarney @EvanLSolomon

Has anyone looked into similar schemes from Ford (not prisons...yet) @Thetrilliumca
A private prison company offered Minnesota an empty prison for 75 million dollars. The state said no. Then Trump’s administration paid the same company almost 500 million for it. The prison has sat empty in Appleton, Minnesota since 2010. Last year CoreCivic emailed the state and offered to sell it for 75 million, upgrades included. Minnesota passed. Fifteen months later, Homeland Security bought it for an ICE detention center at 495.6 million. How could this be? You guessed it. CoreCivic gave half a million dollars to Trump’s inaugural committee. And it still gets paid about 75 million a year to run the place. Republicans love talking about fraud in Minnesota. JD Vance says his task force is all over it. So where are they on this one? I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

Wife of a long term dementia patient here - 👋 If Bruce had signed an advanced directive, would I have been left to make the decision on when to apply MAiD? Even after 11 years, yesterday I saw him smile, laugh, interact and enjoy his meals while being non-mobile, incontinent and non verbal. I can promise you, I would ignore any advanced directive. Yes, he is a different man with a different life now but subjectively and objectively he is comfortable and content. I would not believe this Bruce would want to stop living. In this case, would the “state” step in to provide MAiD over my objections and experience? We are rushing to a set of really complex entanglements. So much room for harm.
As a cancer MD, here’s what terrifies me about advance MAiD requests. A patient with dementia could be smiling, laughing and enjoying life. But a document signed years earlier says it’s time to die. Administer MAiD and risk criminal charges? Refuse and potentially face a College complaint from the family? What an extraordinary position to put a physician in.

Integrated with Google Cloud. Being sued by publishers, including TorStar. According to their own staff, "the valuation is disconnected from reality." 👇
Cohere is backed by NVIDIA, Oracle, AMD, Tiger Global and Saudi-linked Prosperity7 Ventures. It also partnered with U.S.-based @CoreWeave to build and operate AI computing infrastructure in Ontario. Now Ottawa is committing up to $1.6 BILLION in taxpayer money. How much of Cohere is actually Canadian owned? How much of its infrastructure is under foreign control? And why should taxpayers bankroll a government-picked winner without clear answers?

"Billionaires shouldn't be taxed on stock gains they haven't sold, because it isn't real money until they cash out." Fine. Then explain why my county reassessed my home this year and sent me a bigger bill. I didn't sell it. I didn't refinance. I haven't seen a single dollar of that "extra value." But I'm still handing over more every year because my house is worth more on paper. Funny how paper gains are "not real" for a billionaire's portfolio, but completely real the moment they show up on a homeowner's tax statement. Just saw this on Reddit

Criminal non-feasance? #OSAP tips should result in action. Not canceling OSAP for everyone. Too many things pointing to #PreferentialTreatment corruption yet again. #onpoli #FordCorruptAF

There is already an integrity commissioner report that says what happened. The issue is no one will do anything. Ryan Amato is still out there doing whatever and all of Ford’s MPPs still have their jobs.

Neither @OntarioNDP or @OntLiberal will file police complaints. The reports have sufficient evidence for investigation in some cases charges. Law enfoecement COULD act. Electoralism kills people #onpoli
