Under Ontario Conservatives, everywhere is a drug consumption site. Like your neighborhood park. We all want rehabilitation and abstinence and in the meantime, people don’t deserve to die alone. Or in a park.
A public park is not a supervised consumption site.

Musk trash-talks the sovereignty of our great nation Canada, his defunding USAID caused 781,000 unnecessary deaths and will further result in 14 million deaths by 2030 (Lancet, 2025; 406: 283). Musk should forfeit his Canadian citizenship. There's nothing Canadian about him.
I wonder why @elonmusk, who is Canadian, decided not to build his civilization-changing, historic-levels-of-wealth-creating companies in Canada? It will remain a mystery.

Ontario's Ford government villainized safe consumption sites and misrepresented data showing their benefit and lack of harm. Allie Gonidis shares how they turned her life around. We're a cold, heartless province under Conservatives. By @OmarMosleh thestar.com/news/gta/she-was…

Pizza and “wellness” programs are no match for proper ER staffing and beds. ER doctors can afford their own pizza and find meaningful rest outside work but can’t pull more staff and beds out of their pockets. The solution to ER attrition is fixing the root problem.
Emergency physicians lead the league in burnout—but when they quit, it’s often for another reason healthexec.com/topics/health…

Your parks, your school grounds, your coffee shops and your ERs. Conservatives are so smart they want to make them all consumption sites by closing supervised consumption sites. Out of cruelty and ignorance only more bad flows. @TheBreakdownAB
Rick Wilson confirmed at today’s presser that the UCP would be closing the Supervised Consumption Site at the Sheldon Chumir June 30th. But says they’ll have super valuable street teams in the area. He just can’t remember what they’re called. Triage Liason Physicians perhaps?

🚨The recent images of Dr. Hussam Abu Safyia are shocking evidence of Israel's abuse against Palestinian detainees. Dr. Abu Safyia has been arbitrarily detained for one and a half years without charges, while being physically abused and denied healthcare. His recent solitary confinement adds a further layer of concerns over his deteriorating health. Dr. Abu Safyia must be immediately and unconditionally released. Israel must release all Palestinians arbitrarily detained. States must pressure Israel to stop abusing Palestinian prisoners. #FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya

For the record, Premier Ford promised 30,000 new LTC beds and 28,000 upgraded beds by 2028. 6,700 have been built and 4,297 upgraded. That's a 47,000 bed deficit with 2028 coming up.
I spoke at @RunnymedeHC ’s AGM today to recognize their outstanding work supporting patients, seniors and first responders.

Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries currentaffairs.org/news/how-…

Leave it to Stockwell Day to oppose Canadian, UK and British funding to UN agencies and Red Cross for medical assistance, food, water, and peace and stabilization initiatives among Israelis and Palestinians who aren't hardline.
Please, please tell me this is not true. We have begged Canada‘s Liberals to stop giving money which funnels to Hamas. “Minister Anand announces new funding for Palestinians amid crises in Gaza and the West Bank - Canada.ca canada.ca/en/global-affairs/…

Israeli settlers face more sanctions from the Government of Canada for their egregious and illegal ethnic cleansing in the West Bank according to Canada's Foreign Minister.
Anita Anand: We have to continue to stand together with the international community in terms of the extremism from settlers in the West Bank. Canada has initiated a fifth round of sanctions against extremist settlers. We will continue to ensure that international law is upheld.

781,000 needless deaths. That’s Musk. That’s his wood-chipper fun. It’s criminal. @markmulroney
What a terrible take. You don’t have to agree with @elonmusk’s politics to recognize what he has accomplished. When we become incapable of admiring extraordinary achievement because we dislike someone’s politics, what message are we sending to every entrepreneur and innovator?
