I’m proud of a lot of things in my career, but today I calmed an agitated teen coming down from a meth-induced psychosis by bonding over @Drake songs and it’s maybe my greatest clinical achievement?

“In no way should we be taxing what we are producing”. Last time I checked, there was hundreds of millions of resource revenues in Saskatchewan’s budget. Even more egregious: the current potash profit tax he maintains is EXPLICITLY BASED ON PRODUCTION. #cdnpoli #skpoli
“The Prime Minister needs to publicly say that export tariffs are not on,” said Sask. Premier Scott Moe about reports Ottawa is considering levying an export tax on potash and uranium in response to Trump’s tariff threat. “In no way should we be taxing what we are producing.”

"The origin of the AIMS program can be traced back to 2018. At its outset, the province aimed to have the system operational by March 31, 2021, at a cost of $86 million." And now, $250M How?? https://t.co/nfp7cv9Fxs

Great 🧵 Aggressive cancers have always existed. Dishonest players have simply rebranded and weaponized them to further their own ideology.
🧵Battling Antivax Disinfo🧵 Vaccination did NOT increase cancer deaths. Here I took the 6 deadliest cancers (all 5 survival rates under 50%) in a highly vaccinated population (25-54), and we can see ZERO evidence of vaccine-related cancer deaths, all the way to May 2024. /1

Apocalyptic site out of Northern Gaza. Heart wrenching to see how an entire city has been wiped clean off the face of the earth. This is how history will remember Biden and Harris: the architects of this hellish destruction
Across northern #Gaza, there is no way of telling where the destruction starts or ends. No matter from what direction you enter #Gaza City, homes, hospitals, schools, health clinics, mosques, apartments, restaurants - all completely flattened. An entire society now a graveyard.

Jesus, this story
Israeli troops have besieged the last three functional hospitals in north Gaza, a new chapter in a conflict that has targeted hospitals with an intensity and overtness rarely seen in modern warfare. The AP spent months collecting their stories.

I'm having a hard time squaring these two quotes from this article https://t.co/BhIssjbdwv: How can people born after we had substantial protections removed, like masks (Jan '22), so the two year olds mentioned, be subject to immunity debt? Someone help.

Why haven't the Epstein revelations bothered Trump loyalists? Because sex crimes only matter if or when an ideological or political enemy is involved.

In case you aren’t paying attention- recent AB legislation criminalizes doctors who provide evidence based care. As did the opiate prescription changes. This is deeply worrisome. So far targets people with opiate use disorder, kids with gender dysphoria. Who’s next?
Canadians have a right to make personal choices about their health with the support of their families, the guidance of licensed, regulated health professionals and free from political interference. https://t.co/pBkaB9nXSn

What most people do not understand is what effect Rubella has to a fetus. I will not recount the horrible details here but I delivered one stillbirth with Rubella and hope to never see it again. So-called “pro-life” people would surely do anything to prevent this, right?
Alberta's amended Bill of Rights enshrines right "not to be subjected to, or coerced into receiving a vaccine" Seems it could doom a longstanding Public Health Act reg mandating health and childcare workers to have Rubella vaccination. Big news for fans of German measles.

"Black guy carving watermelons." "Puerto Rico is a floating island of garbage." "Latinos love making babies, they don't pull out... they just come inside." Two things: If you still support Trump you're a racist piece of shit. This guy may not get out of New York alive.

Trump on Robert F. Kennedy Jr : "I'm gonna let him go wild on health. I'm gonna let him go wild on the foods. I'm gonna let him go wild on the medicines." RFK Jr is an anti-vaxxer and conspiracy theorist. A Trump win will be an absolute catastrophe for public health.
