MB was only province that didn't submit data to federal body looking at national drug crisis. Why not? Govt said data not available due to reporting lag w chief medical examiner, but examiner said no lag, then govt clarified they chose to not submit. #WFP https://t.co/SRCbYoKsob https://t.co/rAidR8LmDk

COVID-19 Wastewater samples from Winnipeg's North and South End are back on the upswing. Both have roughly between November 7 and 14 reporting dates from 58.3 (North) and 120.1 (South) copies mL. Samples from the West end are down from 84 copies per mL on November 7, 2022. https://t.co/9CEI9K13wJ

The latest COVID-19 wastewater surveillance for Winnipeg shows a couple of recent upward blips but an overall line that appears to be settling back down. There are models that predict the number of real-world cases based on these samples but I don't know how portable those are. https://t.co/55qMYpw3dP

This story is so many layers of power-tripping from an off-duty WPS officer whose initial breach of the Highway Traffic Act set off a chain of events. https://t.co/vVGwxsT5xb https://t.co/XElxELwRNp

Voting is hot. Today’s the day to get it on. https://t.co/xRnilvFkMw

Wastewater sampling for from Winnipeg's south end increased by 24% between Oct. 17-20 and continues climbing toward the Jan 1, 2022 peak of 285 samples/mL (7-day avg). Conversely, Winnipeg's north end recorded a 49% drop in COVID-19 samples for the same period. 💉💉💉 😷😷😷 https://t.co/gVJgB5kN3K

Holy jeez, those voter turnout numbers from Ontario.

Winnipeg recorded a 38% increase in COVID-19 viral load (7-day rolling average) between Oct. 13 & 17 for the North End and a 59% increase for the South end sampling location. 😷😷😷 💉💉💉 https://t.co/PduZzMtHUY

Haven't done one of these in a while. Almost a four-fold increase of COVID-19 in wastewater samples between Oct. 10 and 13 for the North end and ~ 50% for the South end. 🦃🦃🦃 https://t.co/DY655fpqs9

Less-than-robust.

Bartley Kives @bkives

This follows widespread attention toward Manitoba’s less-than-robust efforts to promote third doses as a means of shoring up waning immunity.

The framing here. “Manitoba is committed to working collaboratively with Canada…” Why would Manitoba take an adversarial position against the federal government when it comes to addressing climate change?

No sense of how much this $50M addresses. Abandoned & orphaned mines/wells/extraction sites represent a gross failure by both owners and regulators. More private profits & public costs.
