Only open to the "general" population for after October 30th though. High-risk groups only 'til then.

It is worth noting that Shoppers Drug Mart does not tell you this when you do a booking. I made a booking for last week blissfully unaware and was told to come back after the 30th.

It is also advisable to confirm with them that you want the monovalent XBB vaccine. People reported being told they were getting this vaccine, only to realize later, when they looked at their certificate, that they were given the old bivalent one.

Indeed. I double checked this when getting my fifth Covid shot (and flu shot) at Rexall last week.

Got my first Covid shot today in a year and a half. Also got the flu shot at the same time. 6 hours later and aside from a tiny bit of soreness in both arms, I feel fine, if a bit tired, though I'm not sure if that's related to the shots or not.

Initially I wasn't going to bother with another shot because I'm just SO OVER COVID and barely even think about it anymore, but since I booked my mom to get one, I figured what the hell, since I'm there I guess I'll just get one too.
 
The Elementary Teachers and the province have a tentative deal (subject to ratification) with wages to be determined in arbitration.

In an article about that deal, The Star highlights how far behind students are that received virtual, rather than in person learning.

Here’s what’s in the tentative deal between the Ford government and Ontario’s elementary school teachers

A copy of the agreement, which still needs to be ratified, was obtained by the Star.

That's an enormous gap; what a profound loss. That's so hard to make up.
 
it seems we are in a bit of a summer surge. I was in Vancouver a couple weeks ago for a wedding. People got sick with COVID after the wedding. My boyfriend included. Thankfully it was mild for him. But one guest ended up in the hospital. I had a dinner party cancelled this weekend in Toronto.. As the host and her wife both tested positive for COVID.

Covid's summer wave surges on as Biden tests positive

Cases are increasing nationally, especially in the West and the Southeast, as three or four new variants of the virus are driving infections in different parts of the country.

New, highly contagious Covid variant is fuelling Japan’s 11th wave of infections

The country reported a 39 per cent week-on-week surge in infections from July 1 to 7, with Okinawa the hardest hit.

If people have mild symptoms of sickness, why would they still bother to test for covid? If you feel sick, just stay home, no matter what illness it is.

Hubris, ignorance and lack of paid sick days are unfortunately still a thing.

Build a tramway to avoid a truck protest on Wellington in the future​

And please tell how many "truck protests will occur in the future"? By the time we get this built, we would probably have most restrictions lifted and there wouldn't be a reason for truck protests to happen.

My Crystals Ball said many more protest will happen in the future and will have nothing to do with the current bullshit protest.

By the time this tramway gets built, we will be dealing with something else and a few of those folks/family members will not be around who think Freedom come first and hell with rules.

We are about 10% population wise of the US who has seen 900,000 vs our 33,000 dead in place of 90,000 using the 10% rule as mostly of us follow the rules.

Bring on the surface tramway as it will be cheaper and faster to build than the tunnel.

Have a number of truckers in the family tree and they don't support the protest at all.

Your message sadly got deleted - I'll never forgive you for saying "Screw Your Freedom".

Do you still feel this way though? Telling half of Canada that their concerns had no merit?

In many ways, the T(r)uckers saved the world.

Fauci considers this Year 7 of Covid. The Statute of Limitations for Perjury is about to expire on May 11, so no justice will be had.

It's a forum. Forums don't work so well when you ignore people. It's basically the equivalent of going to BlueSky so you can tune out 'Nazis' on X/Twitter by not hearing out their concerns.

I do appreciate your photography though!

Bring on the Hantavirus lockdowns...

When they had a chance to stop Covid, they allowed the virus to spread around the world until it was too late. Now they've returned 23+ passengers from Hondius to their homelands.

Sound familiar?

How many people know about the WHO's recent Exercise Polaris II:

Practicing today for tomorrow’s emergencies – WHO convenes countries and partners to simulate response to major disease outbreak
(Official) 22-3 April 2026

This isn't funny, my family tried to have me arrested for trying to prevent them from taking their third Pfizer booster shot. I have none.

They're doing it again, but this time with the Iran war as the icing on the cake.
