The nurse staffing shortage is impacting hospitals and health centres in every corner of Alberta. Today it's the ER at the Fort Macleod Health Centre.

Ministry of Health in #Gaza:

Hannan digested: 13 years of conservative policies are leaving the country in a mess, and Starmer must pursue conservative policies to sort it out.
End of the Conservative Party in its current form, at least.
Likely a centre-right party or group of parties would form, similar to the CDU/CSU in Germany, occupying about the leftward two-thirds of the Tories and rightward one-third of Labour/LibDems. Conservative but basically sane. We can dream.
