Sentient anecdotal evidence, presenting in good faith. Goal is to post citations and analysis, hoping the right intel can reach the right people at the right time to help. Focusing on SARS-CoV-2 here. Other issues are also huge and pressing, but there's value in concentrating info streams. Corrections most welcome. Greatly appreciate the zeroes.ca community's caremongering and signal-to-noise ratio. No tolerance for bad online actors of any stripe. Trying to survive in unceded territory.

Useful info for people in BC who aren't anti-vaxxers:
If you are not in one of the groups explicitly called out, you are still allowed to get a shot (as long as it has been at least three months since your previous shot).
And they are, sensibly, still free for walk-ins.

Norway, population 5.6 Million. 1/3rd above the Arctic Circle, and heavily dependent on oil and gas from the North Sea.
And yet, their new-car sales were at 94% EV in January.
98 diesel cars, 7 petrol(gasoline), 29 hybrids.
The rest were EVs.
7 gas cars is wild!
But please tell me again that EVs don't work in the cold etc etc…

Once again, Canadian media uncritically reposts a propaganda hit-piece by right-wing, dark money funded ‘think tank’ to drive public outrage by misrepresenting the facts.
BC’s marketing campaign has successfully recruited hundreds of US healthcare workers at a time when our healthcare system is in crisis. Maybe it’s not just about the price of coffee? 🤔
“B.C. hires more than 400 U.S. health-care workers in 1-year recruitment blitz”

BC NDP closing the Climate Secretariat is beyond warped - sending at least 10 of the staff to work on LNG projects
They are not even pretending anymore, all in on joining the last gasp of fossil fuel capitalism instead of actually facing the future
They are the opposite of progressive

This is horrific and MUST result in criminal charges and massive civil damages to the victims and their families
OpenAI knew of the Tumbler Ridge shooter's mindset and likely intentions months before she went on a killing spree
The RCMP and Canadian Government must take all possible action against the company and the owners - sue them into bankruptcy

Why is BC allowing shipments of coal be transported in BC?
Coal is a dirty dirty fuel source. No western country would encourage its domestic use. Yesterday we allow it to be exported
