I really don’t understand where some of the numbers came from in this report? We are busting at the seams for research space in our department. We also have maximum use of teaching lab space and would need more lab instructors to offer more lab slots or new lab courses. #nlpoli

So I post about and hour plus wait for my luggage (still not here for anyone on my flight) and in 3 minutes I get a reply from an Air Canada spoof account but no info from Toronto Pearson about what is going on?

Reversing the only revenue based public health policy in NL will not make healthy foods more affordable for NL-ers. We have the worst health status and outcomes in the country and most are diet and lifestyle related! heartandstroke.ca/what-we-do/med… #MoreMoments #nlpoli

🧵1/ 📢 Just released: our team at Memorial University partnered with Heart & Stroke to evaluate Canada’s first sugary drink tax in NL. What happened after the $0.20/L tax was introduced? Here's what we found. 🧃👇 🔗 heartandstroke.ca/-/media/pdf-fi…

2/ 📉 Per capita sales of sugary drinks dropped 12% in NL 📈 Likelihood of drinking an SSB weekly dropped 24% 👀 Visibility of the tax in stores? Just 1 in 4 shelf tags showed it

3/ Equity impacts? 🍽️ Food-secure households reduced SSBs 📉 No change among food-insecure groups 💸 Lower-income groups showed smaller reductions

4/ 🧾 Despite visibility challenges, the tax worked: ✅ Shifted behaviour ✅ Generated $35.5 million ✅ Revenues were promised for school food, prenatal nutrition, & health programs

5/ But here’s the catch: 📉 Tax rate too low for WHO targets ❌ Some sugary drinks (like chocolate milk, 100% juice) were excluded 🛒 Most retailers didn’t show the tax at point-of-decision

6/ 🔁 With stronger design—higher rate, broader scope, clear signage—the SSB tax could deliver bigger health wins. 📣 And it could serve as a model for the rest of 🇨🇦

7/ 🚨 As NL plans to repeal the tax, we urge a rethink. Our findings show the policy works—let’s fix it, not scrap it.

8/ 🧪 This work was led by our research team at Memorial University, funded by Heart & Stroke . 💡 Preliminary research was supported by the Canadian Cancer Society and CIHR Institute of Cancer Research. 📘 Full report: heartandstroke.ca/-/media/pdf-fi… #PublicHealth #SSBTax #NLhealth
