Another of Dougies Disasters proving an ounce of prevention will save a fleet of ambulances. This is an intersection in a 50 K zone not far from where Dougie has removed the speed cameras. If I am not mistaken you need to be going pretty fast to deploy the airbags!

Measles parties anyone? Why not expand to polio parties? Just because they are too young to remember doesn't mean they can't read. Oh maybe they can't! Oh yes they can. Everybody knows vaccines cause autism.
Wild how people who reject decades of medical science will turn around and trust an ostrich egg like it’s peer-reviewed.

Young people are increasingly using social media information to make decisions. Using ai to aid in a search is tempting but who validates the ai? It's a wild west out there
It's also good to find out that Xwitter has known these were fake accounts all along but chose to stay silent

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

In Canada the Cons are still rehashing the smear about Jack Layton that was debunked in 1990. Of course the Toronto Sun and Globe and Mail still won't let it go. The Cons are still desperately trying to circulate something new "Canada is Broke".
