Shamefully sad... but true
Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.
When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

This isn't the first time the USA has placed 50% tariffs on Canada.
In 1890, the USA's Tariff Act was touted as a way to build up American industry, but the true goal was forcing the annexation of Canada.
It backfired and made Canada stronger.
This is the story.

As a lay person, it makes sense to me to be proactive rather than reactive.
OUR NEW BMJ editorial: Andes virus should reset WHO’s default approach to airborne risk. 🧵 1/
For severe pathogens with person-to-person transmission, the starting point should be precautionary airborne protections — not waiting for definitive proof after spread occurs.

It seems like such a straightforward strategy... yet so many city planners (politicians) think vehicular traffic is more important than foot traffic in and out of the city core.
Remember, if you plan cities for cars and traffic, you get cars and traffic.
If you plan cities for people and places, you get people and places.

Doug Ford has two weeks left of his 15-week winter holiday before he and his cabal of Cons return to Queen's Park to continue destroying what's left of the province.
Maybe we should decorate the neighbourhood to welcome him back.

I think it's a very logical thing for Poilievre to do... move to the riding where he was elected. It makes zero sense for him to remain in Ontario.
I feel as though there should be a law that says if Pierre Poilievre gets defenestrated as CPC leader in January then he has to move to Battle River—Crowfoot and live there until the next election because I think this would teach everyone involved an invaluable lesson about shenanigans.
