BREAKING: Republican Liz Cheney releases a BRUTAL attack ad against Donald Trump, calling him a "a risk America can never take again" in a video that is sure to infuriate the disgraced former president. She points out that he is the "only president in American history" to refuse the "peaceful transition of power" and he "betrayed millions of Americans" by spreading the Big Lie after Joe Biden defeated him in 2020. He watched on television as his Capitol insurrection unfolded and refused to take action to call off his supporters. "There has never been a greater dereliction of duty by any president," says Cheney. Retweet if you think that she absolutely nailed it!

I'm not sure everyone got the message from 🇨🇦 govt last week - Covid is a "MASS DISABLING EVENT". Approx 1 in 5 ppl who get CoVID are not the same again for months or even years. Sometimes the changes are permanent & life-altering. 😢 toronto.citynews.ca/2023/03/…

I think we all deserve an explanation about the recent (quiet) edits to the released grade 9 de-steamed math curriculum. #OntEd
Looking at a side-by-side comparison of the original #OntEd destreamed math front matter and the edits that were released yesterday. The edits are evil. Dive into the thread if you are interested.

“Evidence shows that students learn better in person” - Dr. Carol Campbell. The @fordnation @Sflecce plan to further privatize education & dismantle publicly-funded education by making virtual learning permanent must be rejected now #ETFO #ETT #OTF #OSSTF #OECTA #AEFO #ONTed

It was incredibly exciting to join @MayorPellegrini to visit the site of the future East Humber Headwaters Park on the Oak Ridges Moraine.🌳 This project will restore 500 acres to its natural state — part of my commitment to conservation in the heart of our community. #EarthDay

Ontario's new measures to curb #COVID19: 1. Limiting non-essential travel - helpful 2. Prolonging stay at home - helpful 3. Increasing hotspot vaccine - helpful 4. Defining essential work - helpful 5. Support for essential workers - absent 6. Limiting outdoor recreation - huh?

I asked: "Explain it to me like I was a 5 year old" And this pretty much explains it. There's no hiding behind the myth of children/schools not possibly driving #Covid19 transmission. It's no longer a data defensible argument #StopKiddingUrself
📍MORE KIDS PER HOUSEHOLD ➡️ MORE RISK OF #COVID19: Danish study of 3 million adults—Increasing number of children, means much higher risk of #SARSCoV2 in adults household members. By high much? 📌2 young kids—13% ⬆️ risk 📌3 young kids—42% ⬆️ risk medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
