Alberta now leads the continent in a preventable childhood disease that leaves at least two of every 1,000 infections with severe intellectual disabilities, pneumonia or hearing loss. Or dead.

Alberta leads the continent in stoking the disease’s resurgence. The province’s former top doctor lays blame.

It’s a bit odd that the Cons disable text copy on their platform doc. Almost as if they don’t want this quoted?

“Abortion should be explicitly excluded from Canada's maternal and child health program in countries where Canadian aid is delivered, since it is extremely divisive— and often illegal.”

n=1000 out of 40 million Canadians, don’t trust the polls! We all need everyone we know to get out and vote!!
High polling leads to voter complacency!
It’s exciting to see but the only thing that matters are the votes!

One thing I would like to see from Black America is a whole scale cultural boycott. If a school doesn't want to teach our history, then let's not do business with them, if a business doesn't want to hire us, then let's not give them business, etc. What do you think?

The current moment in US science feels as if all the crackpots who email me with theories of everything based on magic numbers and sculptures made from rubber bands were suddenly put in charge of all science funding, and surrounded by powerful people assuring them they were brilliant.

Happy holidays, Sean, Jennifer, and the cats! Thank you for being one of the very few internet gurus to have remained sane in this age of grifting and neofascist Podcastistan.

The Mindscape podcast remains a beacon, much like Sagan's portrayal of science as a candle in the dark.

Karsten Heuer learned a surprising thing or two from the buffalo now roaming the backcountry of Banff National Park — lessons he shared with Andrew Nikiforuk a few months before the renowned biologist, author and conservationist died in November.

Karsten Heuer helped bring bison back to Banff. Facing his own end, he reflected with amazement on how nature remembers.
