An Edmonton constable who spoke at a "Freedom Convoy" rally, thanked protesters and posted a video suggesting vaccine mandates were "unlawful" and "unsafe" was sanctioned ten months of pay before being permitted to return to the job.
Edmonton Police Service Const. Elena Golysheva "acknowledged the inappropriateness of her actions" during a disciplinary hearing in June, according to documents CTV News Edmonton obtained through the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.

I reblogged a long post and added it at the end, but I think this deserves its own post:
In Canada, you can request FREE (including shipping) n95/equivalent masks in several sizes including small/youth sizes from a charity: donatemask.ca. You can also request rapid tests, in case you can't find them locally anymore.
I have several friends who were able to get masks from there that they couldn't get elsewhere for $ reasons, and they shipped the masks pretty quickly too. They can also provide larger quantities of masks for community organizations (I helped a club at my university order over 800 masks, so that all of their events this term can be masked including a music showcase with several hundred people attending!). If you can't afford or find masks for you/your kids, it's really worth ordering some here.

"Most Canadians say they would support or share some support for the return of face mask mandates this fall in indoor public space if deemed necessary by officials, according to a new survey conducted by Nanos Research.
The poll conducted for CTV News found seven in 10 Canadians said they would support the return of face masks mandates to some extent. Fifty-two per cent said they would support the return of such mandates, 17 per cent said they would "somewhat support" them, while 22 per cent would be against them. Eight per cent would be "somewhat" opposed to the idea."

Recent article about what's happening to me.
Also the journalist did a tweet thread with highlights from the article if that's something that you're interested on sharing Facebook and Instagram won't let you share a news links from Canada https://twitter.com/SpichakSimon/status/1707785829433618864?t=RowAITYe-W17QLiZRGTNMQ&s=19
And this is a recent podcast episode where I talk about being turned down after 4 years of waiting by a pro bono clinic for help on starting a human rights tribunal case
And since I've been fighting week to week to have enough money for the very least amount of treatments and supports that keep me alive here's the GoFundMe link. You'll see various other articles because I know I'd want to know somebody had been verified. https://gofund.me/cff39173
The hard thing is that no mainstream Legacy Media in Canada has not been willing to tell my story. And indeed most anywhere else so far. Only small market niche publications outside of the Chatelaine article, which for reasons I don't understand had no impact on the GoFundMe at all outside of one donation. And if the larger mainstream population doesn't understand then not only how do I survive, but how do millions of other people like me both in Canada and around the world keep out of unnecessary disability, deterioration and early death.
So if you know of any news source that you think would be interested please share my story and feel free to tell them they can find me on twitter, hellscape that it is now it's still the easiest form for my dyslexia to navigate- *iammadelinepod*. The pinned tweet there has all of the articles if you or anyone is looking for them

A new COVID-19 subvariant, known as JN.1, has emerged and is now the prevailing strain across Canada, prompting health experts to caution that it may be more infectious and could even have extra symptoms. Currently, the subvariant makes up the highest proportion of all COVID-19 variants, accounting for more than half (51. 9 per cent) of all infections in Canada, according to the latest data from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC). JN.1 was first detected in Canada on Oct. 9, and since then has rapidly increased.
