You should feel proud. I'm proud of Canada and I'm not Canadian. Some of us need inspiration from YOUR leaders. Sigh.

Please remember that some of us down here are appalled too. We are on the wrong side of economics and the wrong side of history.

A pediatric inpatient history covers risk factors.We had to mention travel, exposure to rabbits/birds,& other pertinent findings.Vaccination status has never been more pertinent, including/esp those with chronic conditions. Happy it's universal on family rounds.Pediatric medicine is in good hands.

How Trump’s Federal Funding and Hiring Freezes Are Leaving America Vulnerable to Catastrophic Wildfire Uncertainty over funding and hiring stemming from the president’s executive orders has limited wildfire training and postponed work to reduce flammable vegetation. It has also led some firefighters to leave the force, their colleagues said.

NEW: Trump and Musk’s efforts to shrink the government have left the country’s wildland firefighting force unprepared for the approaching wildfire season.

One federal employee likened the funding freeze to a β€œmassive sledgehammer” hitting the force.

Who is up for putting Google, Amazon, and Meta in the trash? Pandering seems to be the plan for these billionaires tech oligarchs who have recently discussed issues with "masculine energy". Laughable.

This guy at my window doesn't know about Inaugurations or Davos.

But I know we can't be deterred by politics or detours in the quest for a safer planet.

It's time to work for local change and help our fellow humans & coinhabitants of the planet.
