“There is a grave concern,” the letter [from the UN] stated, “that, if assisted dying is made available for all persons with a health condition or impairment, regardless of whether they are close to death, a social assumption might follow (or be subtly reinforced) that it is better to be dead than to live with a disability.”

Have Assisted Dying Laws Gone Too Far?

Addiction workers on reserve make 45% less than their off-reserve counterparts, and many use their own money to feed clients or take them to off-reserve services. #indigenousrights

The Walrus is a good little magazine if you can afford to chip in a bit they'd appreciate it. I'm just a subscriber.

Talk a bunch of tech stuff; currently working with #DataBricks / #DeltaLake

Say hey!

There is a good short piece in The Walrus about Disinformation this month. The editorial points out how rapidly it spreads and how difficult it is for Journalists to keep up. I think it points out nicely the need for more Critical Thinking skills in the general population.

@DavidElfstrom #TheWalrus has a good article on this in #Canada in this months paper magazine. I just built a #CorsiRosenthalBox as well.

@0CynicalBastard Been wearing N95 masks for a while now. Just finished building my first #corsirosenthalbox too. #thewalrus just had a great article on air circulation and filtration. I don't see the article up on thewalrus.ca yet but it is in the paper magazine I just received.

#MarkJaccard : As I was guided into the paddy wagon "I wondered what had brought each of them to the glistening seaside town of White Rock, British Columbia, to block a train carrying coal headed for Asia via Vancouver’s increasingly busy and expanding port. And I wondered if their stories were as unlikely as mine."
