If you look at the data, the pandemic has never been worse than it is right now and yet now we have zero policies, zero prevention measures in place of any kind. We have more deaths in Canada in 2022 than in 2021 or 2020 ( public.tableau.com/app/profile/bi… ). 31/ Click "Show replies" 👇

How do we get people to go back to masking on their own accord? 1. We need to show the public what masks have done for us and look at what they can do for you. 2. Present clearly what are the benefits of masking 36/

3. Promote masks as one of the most essential prevention tools that we have 4. Masks are also the least expensive, most accessible, and least intrusive measure 37/

Since kids are currently the most impacted by the respiratory virus season surge, the fact that masks are not currently being recommended in schools or daycares where transmission risk for kids is the highest and the cause of the healthcare system being overloaded... 38/

... people are wondering why would we need to wear them anywhere else like going to work or shopping? Dr. Lavoie highlights that the messaging doesn't make sense. 39/

To read more about the science behind masks and their use, check out Bill Comeau's (@Billius27) excellent article ( billius27.substack.com/p/masks-eviden… ). 52/

Bill Comeau's (@Billius27) also did a review of Canada's current post-mandate status ( billius27.substack.com/p/the-case-for… ). "If mask mandates had not been dropped, right now we could be looking at roughly 4.4 million fewer infected by Omicron, 2,300 fewer Omicron deaths..." 53/

"... 230,000 fewer long covid cases, and of course fewer child respiratory illnesses that are currently overwhelming children’s hospitals." 54/

Retweet this if you think the Ontario government should immediately reverse their cuts to healthcare for uninsured people. #Healthcare4All

This government’s most recent funding announcement shows just how much they are shortchanging our students even while they claim to be concerned about student outcomes. We need proper supports and investments now! #onted

The name of this Act is BETTER SCHOOLS AND STUDENT OUTCOMES ACT, 2023. The word student appears in these 18 pages 34 times. 17 of those times are the name of the act. 1 of those times is referring to teacher education candidates.

⁦⁦David Moscrop⁩ nails it all in this article with the exception of one piece. Education is not just teachers. It takes a team and money needs to be spent on education workers as well as teachers & smaller classes tvo.org/article/educat…

If you care about education (care about future of all areas of life, environment, health, industry, tech, culture/equity, language)-please read this! Wendy sifted through the proposed #onted Better Schools act for the key Words Minister used-and it’s pretty telling- and scary 🙄

Stephen Lecce Ahhh at the very last hour…did it almost kill you to include “staff” in that tweet? Even though your tweet says nothing about appreciating educators or thanking them for keeping the system you are trying to break afloat #FireLecce

Emergency Departments are reducing hours or closing all over Ontario and Doug Ford is focused on privatizing healthcare (moving surgery out of hospitals for eg.) against a mountain of evidence that tells us that's the wrong move. More expensive & poorer patient outcomes. Why?

"Whether you live there or not, you should be paying attention. What’s happening in Minden speaks to the broader state of our health-care system." Though it might look like a local campaign, #savemindenER is a fight all Ontarians need to support! #onpoli tvo.org/article/the-mi…
