Graphic with the words “National Day for Truth and Reconciliation” centred and typed top to bottom in black font, except for “Truth and” which are large bolded white font. Words are laid overtop a slightly angled orange maple leaf which itself is overtop a smudged thick black line, like as if done by a wide paint brush.

And we loved hearing about her Canadian connection!

Wild how folks look away when kids are actually being harmed, but slip in a book about gay penguins, and suddenly it’s the end of the world.

Meanwhile, here in Canada, we’re waiting to find out what Alberta thinks children need protection from besides actual harm. www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

It's clear: Long COVID is significantly impacting children. A new study from the University of Otago reveals over a fifth of kids and teens suffer persistent symptoms after COVID-19. This isn't just a cough; it's headaches, fatigue, and new anxieties. #LongCovidKids

The most important part of this article, to me, is the end.

It challenges a false binary between “long COVID” and “everyone else.”
