BC authorities are trying to rewrite history by claiming that BC schools were magically safe during the #COVID19 pandemic year. There are a lot of holes in their claims. Here to set the record straight-a thread for #bced, class of 20-21. @JM_Whiteside @jjhorgan @DrBonnieHenry.

2/ Christy Clark was a disaster in B.C. Her leadership was so damaging that the B.C. Liberals changed their name to B.C. United to try to rebrand themselves (didn’t work) & still have a hard time distancing themselves from her negative legacy. Canada, AVOID her politics! See:.
Christy Clark as Federal Liberal leader??😬. She illegally ripped up teacher’s contracts, resulting in 15 yrs of fewer services for kids. Her gov’t siphoned $$ from ICBC, allowed money laundering, & was involved in the “triple delete” email scandal. Avoid!

Christy Clark? Hard NO!. 2017:“BC is…most unequal province & most expensive in Canada. Then again, considering how much time Christy Clark’s gov’t spends with corporate lobbyists & collecting millions from corporate donors,…is anyone really surprised?”.

What are the numbers of #LongCovidKids in B.C. & Canada? Answer: we don’t know, because BC (& Canada in general) doesn’t keep track, nor are paediatricians informed to begin with. But UK numbers give a snapshot of how bad it probably is in Canada…numbers increasing, still! 😬.
According to ONS data, the number of children with Long Covid nearly DOUBLED in a year (between March 2023 & March 2024), soaring to over 111K kids in England & Scotland. That’s more than 1,000 new cases of Long Covid in kids PER WEEK just in England & Scotland across the year.
