Today I am thrilled to announce Housing Within Reach. While the cost of everything rises, housing is the greatest expense for most families. This NDP plan will prioritize affordable prefabricated housing, institute a down payment assistance plan & establish a renters’ tax credit.
We also modelled that if all Canadians (population 41 million) used a reuseable elastomeric mask instead of disposable respirator for 120 days of mask use per year significant reductions in CO2e (produced from @NRC_CNRC Greenhouse Gas Equiv Calc): oee.nrcan.gc.ca/corporate/stat…?
An additional *12 cases per 1,000* could be prevented with use of a respirator style masks vs medical/surgical mask.
Here's what we found. No surprise, masks work. Their effectiveness at prevention of COVID-19 infection and therefore Post COVID Condition increase at higher risks of transmission. With 100 people infected per 1000, masks could prevent *17 cases per 1,000*.
The first @CochraneCanada CAN-PCC Prevention Guideline recommendation is out: *We suggest masking for asymptomatic adults in community settings be used for the prevention of COVID-19 infection to prevent COVID-19 condition.* (Cond Rec, Low Cert Evidence)
BREAKING: The Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Public Health Agency of Canada jointly announce Canada will be expanding surveillance of #H5N1, including cattle and retail milk testing, amid ongoing outbreak among U.S. dairy cattle. More from their new statement:
Hebert explains: PP’s future use of the NWC to override charter rights will create tremendous pressure from his pro-life MPs who will want women’s rights rolled back. This is a warning about women’s healthcare rights under a Poilievre as PM.

Seems to have flown under the radar, but Pierre’s comments about blowing up the charter in opposition to the Supreme Court was made at a Police association dinner….
Last week I heard about people who have been working on Covid for 4 years getting pulled over to measles work. I heard hushed conversations worrying about avian influenza. And I really felt it - the absolute need for clean indoor air. It really is about more than Covid.
Didn’t have “calling former student who is now a lawyer to help get legal representation for students arrested because my university called the cops to campus” on my professor bingo card, but here we are.
I find the opposition to clean air to be the most infuriating part of the pandemic. It’s a relatively low cost way to drastically reduce transmission while also improving health in many ways. It’s been 4 years - we clean the water, we clean our hands… it’s time to clean the air.

UPDATE on ASU women who had their hijabs removed: They were never given their hijabs back & had access to head coverings *15 hours* later. Their access to practice their religion was obstructed. The arrests were for the lowest level of misdemeanor in AZ: a class 3 misdemeanor.

Seems to have flown under the radar, but Pierre’s comments about blowing up the charter in opposition to the Supreme Court was made at a Police association dinner….
Last week I heard about people who have been working on Covid for 4 years getting pulled over to measles work. I heard hushed conversations worrying about avian influenza. And I really felt it - the absolute need for clean indoor air. It really is about more than Covid.
Didn’t have “calling former student who is now a lawyer to help get legal representation for students arrested because my university called the cops to campus” on my professor bingo card, but here we are.
I find the opposition to clean air to be the most infuriating part of the pandemic. It’s a relatively low cost way to drastically reduce transmission while also improving health in many ways. It’s been 4 years - we clean the water, we clean our hands… it’s time to clean the air.
Horrible news. Please contact your MLA and express how utterly unacceptable this is. So much illness - and disability, hospitalization, and death - is preventable. This would be a money-saving move to clean the air. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
