A Winnipeg man who was misdiagnosed with a fatal disease by two different doctors says anybody believed to have a life-threatening condition should be sent to a specialist in the field for final determination.
A neurologist at Sunnybrook Hospital agrees.
Fredrik Bergstrom, 51, went to see his family physician in March after developing a limp and numbness in one foot for no apparent reason.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he’s worried that Israel’s tactics in the war against Hamas could put its long-term security and diplomatic support at risk.
In a year-end interview with CBC News chief political correspondent Rosemary Barton, the prime minister suggested that some of Israel’s other allies share that concern.
“The voices from Israel’s strongest friends, like Canada, like Australia, especially like the United States … are becoming increasingly concerned that … the short-term actions being taken by Israel are actually putting at risk the long-term safety and even support for a Jewish state into the future,” Trudeau told Barton.
I doubt Israel gives a shit about Junior’s opinion.

Justin Trudeau is worried Canada is vulnerable to the spread of the far right in the United States, and says no one should be smugly assuming that this country is immune to its influence.
In a candid and personal interview with his old friend Terry DiMonte, Trudeau talked at length about the angry climate in Canada and the U.S., and what he sees as near “nihilism” infecting political discourse.
“There is something that is changing right now,” Trudeau said. “Donald Trump was a symptom of that, not a cause … There is a level of anger and ‘burn down the institutions’ and almost nihilism that’s creeping in, in all of our countries.”

This is so cool….❤

A vicar has been accused of ruining the magic of Christmas for children after he revealed the secret of Santa’s gift giving in a “sermon on truth”.
Children were said to be left in tears after the Reverend Edward Keene’s speech during a carol concert for a crowd of over 200 pupils, made up of 11 and 12-year-olds, at St Nicholas Church in Stevenage, Herts.
Toronto’s city council approved a motion last week to change the name of the city’s landmark Yonge-Dundas square to “Sankofa Square.” The renaming is part of a $700,000 taxpayer-funded initiative to scrub the name of late 18-Century Scottish politician Henry Dundas from city-owned assets, due to his minor association to the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and despite the fact he was an abolitionist. Interestingly, the square’s new moniker, Sankofa, was first used by those who were active in the very same slave trade that Dundas opposed.
Republican U.S. Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy thanked Canadian truckers for their “civil disobedience” during the Freedom Convoy protests of 2022.
Ramaswamy made the comments while announcing a campaign stop in a video posted on his official account on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Truckers aren’t just haulers of goods, they're guardians of our way of life & guardians of freedom on our highways. Last year, the Canadian Freedom Convoy taught the world a valuable lesson about the power of civil protest against an out-of-control totalitarian government. On… pic.twitter.com/ZPYkMbVjjg

Meghan Markle is back on the screen, but her cameo in a new coffee advert is unlikely to lead to a resurgence of roles.
The Suits alum was lambasted for her brief role in an ad for instant coffee and tea brand Clevr as the beverage company’s CEO, Hannah Mendoza, gives viewers a tour of its headquarters.

Most of the people who come to visit Debbie Nightingale’s Ontario farm are lured in by a chance to get up close and personal with her herd of friendly goats. But some visit for more practical reasons: to charge their electric vehicles.
“We have people who come on a regular basis because they know we have these,” Nightingale said, gesturing to the two-port EV-charging station she installed last year with the help of a federal tourism recovery grant.
As part of the federal government’s net-zero targets for the future, it is aiming for all new light-duty car and passenger truck sales to be zero emission by 2035, which will require a nationwide network of public charging ports.
Guilbeault is a lying idiot “Most people gonna charge at home.”
