In Canada, the people speak through their democratically elected government; not mob rule.

This line in Premier Doug Ford's speech stood out: "This is a pivotal, pivotal moment for our nation. The eyes of the world are upon us right now, and what they are seeing is not who we are. This is not how we try to change things here in Canada. We do it through the ballot box."
Anyone else have a @googlecanada @google Pixel 6 that keeps on restarting on its own? I have tried factory reset and the issue is still there. I want to love my new phone, but it is hard when it is restarting 2-3 times a day randomly

Can someone please tell the "freedom" convoy protestors that want to overthrow our government that we just had a federal election recently? That if they want to see a change in government, they can just vote for who they want next time? That this is just how democracy works?

So let me get this straight: The Canadian women's hockey team wore N95 masks while easily beating Russia 6-1 at the Olympics...but some people are so inconvenienced by having to wear a mask that they're holding the city of Ottawa under siege & claiming it's all about "freedom?"

I’ve been wearing a mask in public for almost two years now. I’d like the record to show: I do not like wearing one and I do not want to wear one.
But I will gladly accept the minor inconvenience of wearing one for another two years if it means protecting vulnerable people.

I'm starting to better understand the kind of "freedom" that these protestors want. They want to be free from having to deal with the shared responsibility of caring for others & from having to deal with the consequences of their actions. That's the "freedom" they want.

If homeless individuals were building shelters out of wood in front of the house of commons, they wouldn’t get so far as putting up a single wall. They would be removed by the authorities.

In Toronto, 90.2% of people over the age of 12 have received a COVID vaccine.
In this campaign Torontonians have stepped up to protect each other. It’s an incredible symbol of unity & solidarity.
Ignore the loud angry voices with their big trucks. Let’s focus on what unites us.

Unlike many childhood vaccines, which contain tiny parts of a virus or bacteria (e.g. Chickenpox vaccine or Flu vaccine), mRNA COVID-19 vaccines don't contain any parts of the coronavirus. 🙅♀️🦠
Instead, they teach the body to recognize the virus in the future.🧐

New @Ipsos poll says 56% of Canadians are worried about the long-term risks of boosters. Huge gap here between what scientists/health care professionals think (close to zero long-term risk) and what the public thinks. Needs a sophisticated communication campaign.
