‘All types are needed’: Canadian Blood Services urges people to donate this summer

Canadian Blood Services is asking people to roll up their sleeves and donate this summer as the organization deals with an increased need.

For decades, I donated regularly until.....

During the all too short span of time where our governments pretended to G a F about covid, I had a donation scheduled.

Wearing a brand new N95, I walked into my local (#Windsor #Ontario #YQG ) #CanadianBloodServices to meet my appointment.

I was told, in no uncertain terms, that I would have to remove my "pointless N95" and instead wear their "more effective surgical mask" (told to me by, might I add, an unmasked "supervisor")

"In what universe is that surgical mask more effective than my N95?" I asked.

She replied "None of it's real anyway"

I left.

I called them out on what was still then Twitter, and on Facebook. All that happened was, they blocked me.

When I contacted CBS at their National Level I was told "we don't manage the affairs of individual facilities".

So, well, fuck #CBS. We should never have privatized.

If you need blood and don't get it, it's their fault.
