so, Island Health has apparently been trying to contact us for urgent tests, but Gmail is flagging emails from them as Spam and Suspicious - go figure that tech is against public health
Never heard of paravirus 'parainfluenza' - but that is what we have, and they want more from us.... and a good friend who is an infectious disease NP is like WTAF!!!
Canadian woman detained by ICE being used as ‘example,’ immigration experts warn
> “I was reapplying for my work visa and with no warning about what was about to happen I was taken by ICE,” Mooney told an ABC News 10 San Diego reporter from the detention centre where she is being held. https://globalnews.ca/news/11080371/canadian-woman-detained-ice-example-immigration-border/ #MAGA #ICE #Canada #BCpoli #CDNpoli #deportations #immigration
Wife is entering week 4, I'm in week 3 of an 'unknown' virus that truly feels like a combination of noro and Covid. Reduced lung function, no appetite, incredible fatigue
She was tested for everything at ER with no conclusion. Now friends reporting they have this and are cancelling Spring Break trips.
Stay masked, stay safe - public health is asleep
@AnnaAnthro Boo hoo. We need to ban these floating disease and garbage generators from our territorial waters entirely. #cdnpoli #USpol #bcpoli
Sullivan, a Republican Washington state Senator on radio after hearing trucks rolling thru BC from lower 49 US states may get tariffs imposed on them:
“Canada, you don't want to mess with #Alaska.
“And if you do, we are going to work hard on having our cruise ships bypass your ports, and that will help our economy tremendously.”

Why #BCNDP won't EVER get my vote or any of my family's vote again.
Why I hate cops even more.
Why I yell at people who support cops.
You would shut your coploving mouths if they pulled the same shit on your family & your Dad dies on same night.
Why I still believe no Mayor should be heading ANY municipal police boards. FUCK YOU, DEAN - SAANICH MAYOR & #BOOTLICKER
A smart move by British Columbia’s government. #BCpoli #CanPoli Sorry, the link is still paywalled: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-bc-hydro-removes-tesla-products-from-ev-rebate-program-as-part-of/
The Government of B.C. and BC Hydro are taking action to preference Canadian goods in our rebate programs going forward and to exclude, where practicable, U.S. produced goods. As of March 12, 2025, Tesla products (electric vehicle chargers, energy storage batteries and inverters) are not eligible for CleanBC and BC Hydro rebates. #bcpoli #cdnpoli #teslatakedown https://www.bchydro.com/powersmart/electric-vehicles/rebates-incentives/rebates-home-chargers.html
@thetyee Late stage #capitalism driven by extreme and fast exploitation of the natural world and #corporategreed have captured politicians of all stripes. The @BCNDP are among the worst hypocrites in #Canada. They could be Liberals or Conservatives!
Here are faces of Canadian Conservative Christo-fascism, aka neonazis/trumpkins.
Who elects them? Not just vote for them, they were elected by enough supporters. A deviant sickness has infected our communities. It needs to be stopped.
We must eliminate the fascist Conservatives this election and every election afterward. They must never gain power.

BC launches full prohibition on all American alcohol.
Reasons:
"One is to respond to the escalating threats that we're seeing from the United States. The other is to recognize the feeling that many British Columbians have now when we look at American products, we don't even want to see them on the shelf anymore. "
Ready to lose an hour of sleep for no good reason!?
No?
Well too bad.
It is: arbitrary-time-manipulation-night, Lose an Hour Edition.
This is so dumb.

adding to Rustad's woes Tara Armstrong has now quit the BCcons - I expect them to create a new right wing party, with 3 MLAs they would get official party status
as a proof the ring wing eventually eats itself, Jordan Kealy has resigned from the BCcon caucus after Rustad kicked out Dallas Brodie for her denial of residential school atrocities
