Conservative MP Shelby Kramp Neuman stood in the HOC stating that Canada has the worst economy in the G7.
That is a lie.
Canada's overall performance ranks the strongest in the G7, The IMF projects Canada's growth @ 2.4% the highest in the G7 !
Another Conservative Lie, every single day. #cdnpoli

Reminder that muting specific words on social media for a day, a week, a month, or even forever can be laudatory self-care.

I care for children in the hospital on inpatient & consult services.
Most weeks there are at least a few kids admitted with vaccine preventable diseases.
Often in children who can’t get vaccinated themselves.
15 years in pediatrics and I’ve never seen a single one admitted with vaccine injury.

I’ve said it before but reading all the medieval history books I’ve been reading lately has been so comforting. Makes you realize that there have always been mad and incompetent kings and they almost always die in ignominy and everyone piles shit on them for centuries after they’re gone.

One of the great joys of listening to music is recognizing the musician through the piece. It’s not just that they play; it’s that their intonation, their style, and the subtle nuances of their interpretation come through to you, shaping the experience.

Correction: They don't have regrets, they're just saying they have regrets. Had they bothered to read the thing before they voted, they still would have voted for it, because they were told to vote for it, and independent acting and thinking is not a GOP trait.
