With all due respect, Canada should learn one thing with respect to health care.

Never listen to a Heath Care Economist, especially one from McMaster.

Celebrating the barbarism of Oct 7th? That’s hate speech, plain and simple. It has no place in the streets of Vancouver or anywhere in Canada.

A grade 1 teacher told me she has no money for books. She reached her allotment of paper for copying months ago and cannot exceed it. She was given $5.00 per child per year for pencils, erasers, note books all of which evaporated quickly and HE’s worried about phones!

1. Covid vaccines saved 3 million American lives during the pandemic.
