I don’t know why I’m still surprised that we went through what we did in the pandemic and didn’t change absolutely everything about longterm care. thestar.com/business/senio…

“It is unacceptable that a child is being raised in an office building in Ontario” is not a quote I ever thought I’d need in a story He was 10. And he lived there for 8 months because he couldn’t get the right medical care From me and Megan Ogilvie thestar.com/news/canada/a-…

Absolutely blown away by this story in The Local Magazine (Archived Account) — Bren Doherty’s reporting and Nick Kozak’s photos. So many details that will stay with me, so many enraging stories within the larger narrative. Well worth your time. thelocal.to/toronto-encamp…
