Fellow denizens of HaliSky - a reminder that today (October 16) is the last day for voting online or by telephone in this year’s municipal elections. This is the first time that I did online voting, and I found it fast and easy!

A seniors home on PEI had a COVID outbreak in 2 units, didn't enforce masking, didn't stop visitors, then announced more units have an outbreak. HOW DID AN AIRBORNE VIRUS TRAVEL THROUGH A BUILDING WHEN YOU REFUSE TO FILTER THE AIR OR LIMIT THE PEOPLE SHARING IT? #mystery#CovidIsntOver#NEISvoid

The vast majority of adults have decided that we’re going “back to normal” at all costs. We’re leaving disabled and vulnerable people by the wayside as we push ahead with “you do you”. But what about the kids? Who’s protecting them? www.disabledginger.com/p/bonus-back...
