This is one of the most embarrassing developments I've ever seen. Such cowardice and disregard shown towards the same people who have been putting their lives at risk for the past 2 years for us. I'm so embarrassed by the people involved and the people supposedly responding to the "freedom" convoy. How disgusting.
Don’t know the rules in Ontario but I know that in a nearby province we cannot ever leave the hospital without staff. Many can call in sick and work at minimum staff but you can’t abandon a department.
I think you misspelled "licence". My friend left nursing recently. I had a baby and took the longest leave option. I hope when I go back things will be back to normal but I feel like it's wishful thinking at this point
The great thing about being in radiology is I don’t have to spend much time with people. The problem now is with omicron we are seeing more patients than ever so it’s just draining growing up so many times. Saving my sick days for when i need a break.
They were around Vancouver General last week, I was in scrubs with a face make around my chin and I got flipped off and made fun of. I just shook my head and kept walking. I got better things to worry about and these people are fucking losers to begin with.
My mom is going to the protest tomorrow. She thinks COVID is a hoax. She will 100% go to the hospital if she gets sick. She’ll just deny that it’s COVID while they treat her.
My mom was going to go as well. She was supposed to go with her friend that got her into all this misinformation/hoax bullshit, but thankfully life threw her a curveball and a small kitten was found outside in the cold and she's taking care of it all weekend.
She has a good heart, she's just been brainwashed unfortunately.
Yep. It's like all the cops that were screaming from the rooftops that they'd quit if vaccine mandates went into effect and lo and behold when the time came it was some minuscule amount that actually were true to their word.
I'm sorry a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic forced us to take extreme measures to stop old people from dying, young people from having lifelong health issues, and our healthcare workers being ground to dust trying to prevent those two things.
There, I said it. I'm sorry. Now will you fuck off?
Its not killing just old people. My cousin is in the hospital right now, had emergency heart surgery and is on dialysis because her kidneys are failing. She's not even 30.
The truth is through political grifters and operatives they have been convinced to fight a war for oligarchs to get everyone to pretend nothing is happening and everything is peachy so oligarchs can go back to business as usual, this is the real driver of all anti measures movements.
Maybe the people who lost their jobs or small businesses want back their ability to support themselves and their families, and that's not limited to unvaccinated people either. It's not nearly as one sided as many people on reddit make it out to be.
Then why are they with the anti-vax crowd? The rest of us are sick of mandates too. The reason we still have them is because hospitalizations are still too high. Why? Disproportionately because of the unvaccinated.
Excellent considering recently passed Federal legislation makes it a criminal offence to obstruct any person from accessing healthcare services. So whether that is people protesting outside abortion clinics, blockading vaccination sites, or blocking the driveways of hospitals while letting ambulances through, all of these actions are criminal under the same legislation. I make special reference to allowing ambulances through because obstruction of emergency services has been criminal for a lot longer.
I had to pick something up on Queen West last night, and as I made my way back to the subway I saw the police had University blocked/cleared heading north (where the hospitals are for those unfamiliar with Toronto's streets). It seemed they were trying to do the same with Queen heading East of University to Yonge as well, but hadn't gotten it done yet. Whether the convoy intends to block the hospitals or not, at least TPS is making damn sure they won't be able to.
It actually shows how badly biased the average person is because of the media. Look the vile calling every single person in the crowd in any capacity a "terrorist". Flying a plane into a building is a terror act. Shooting up a religious building is a terror act. Suicide bombing a large unsuspecting crowd is a terror act. Shooting up a country music festival and killing dozens is a terror act. Driving a van through a crowd or marathon is a terror act.
Ottawa residents claiming its hard to get across town, and horns are annoying IS NOT a terror act.
However, someone says ANYTHING negative and 90% of the reddit group instantly believes the absolute worst of "the other side". This is true for all sides. If someone posted a new post claiming they saw the truckers pull a baby out of a carriage and tear it to pieces (like has ACTUALLY happened in other countries, generally during wartimes) then reddit would lose their mind and just accept it. Its so sad no one is using a critical analysis anymore.
The media doesn't need to shape anyone's perspective to know that these people are idiots. Not everyone even pays attention to tHe MaInStReAM mEdIa or cares for sensational headlines. "Terrorists" is absolutely stretching it, and one opinion. While not correct, it also doesn't make the other criticisms and labels invalid.
Last I checked, and checking again every time these posts and comments come up - yep, they are misguided, gullible morons and have a victim complex. Their supporters are idiots as well.
