Opinion piece on inequities of cancer drug policies across Canada (ex. oral drugs coverage vs hospital intravenous drug coverage):
https://www.thespec.com/opinion-stor...n-drug-crisis/
Most effective copy headline on an article-great "ewww" factor:Quote:
Cancer drugs are mainly administered through two routes: either orally, which can be done in the comfort of the patient's home, or intravenously, which needs to be administered in a hospital by a health care professional. Because the Canada Health Act stipulates that all physician and hospital services must be publicly funded for the provinces to receive federal funding for health, intravenous cancer drugs are covered across all provinces.For orally administered cancer drugs, the story is quite different. In Ontario, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador, patients sometimes bear the responsibility for some or all of the costs, while in western Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba) and in Quebec, oral cancer drugs are fully covered.

Data breach at TransUnion Canada: https://globalnews.ca/news/6017356/t...-cyberattacks/
Remember the other breach this year, the Capital One Mastercard? I did not see any letter from HBC Mastercard for Mom on that matter. I have to ask her to get her free annual credit report to check anyway.Quote:
The data at TransUnion was compromised between June 28 and July 11, but the incident wasn’t detected until August.
So I guess I'm the Meryl Streep of generals.
Former Defense Secretary James Mattis, laughing off President Trump's recent criticism of him.
Trump, who once called Oscar winner Meryl Streep an "overrated actress," called Mattis "the world's most overrated general."

Mattis went on to joke that "the only person on the military that Mr. Trump doesn't think is overrated" is "Colonel Sanders," the founder of the Kentucky Fried Chicken fast food restaurant chain.

Speaker John Bercow has blocked a bid to hold another 'meaningful vote' on @BorisJohnson's #Brexit deal.
He said the matter had already been "decided", and that parliamentary rules don't allow MPs to vote on the same motion twice.

BREAKING: MPs have voted against the government's #BrexitDeal timetable. This is a significant blow to Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan to leave the EU by October 31.
YES: 308
NO: 322
MAJORITY: 14
Mr. Boris Johnson-is the one who basically said that Brexit was a done deal by end of Oct. I saw morning show headlines this week that he's seeking a December election? Did he drink a forget-I-said-that something or other this month?Quote:

In a Quebec divorce case involving a wealthy couple with competing matrimonial property claims in Quebec and Belgium, the Supreme Court of Canada has 6-1 refused to stop the Quebec court from proceeding with the case, in a judgment which provides guidance on the scope and application of the international lis pendens exception under Quebec’s private international law (PIL).
Interesting article in the Globe and Mail dissecting the Conservative loss in the election. There is also a similar article in today’s Sunday Star.
