My daughter is an ambulance technician. Today, she did her 12 hour shift without being able to take a break, then was delayed for a further 2 hours before she could end her shift. 14 HOURS WITHOUT A BREAK. Retweet if you support ambulance staff’s pay demands

Christmas for most people is quite a happy time, but that's not true for everyone.
Please make an effort to be active on here, to interact with those who are alone and feel lonely over Christmas? Especially do so on Christmas day
Someone asked why we don’t have our blinds open, as is the #Chanukah tradition, with menorahs in the window. This is #Ottawa today, #Canada today. As the recipient of multiple #antisemitic death threats, it isn’t safe to indicate that our home is Jewish. Let that #hate sink in.
