In 2013, England's chief medical officer warned of a health "armageddon" as bacteria learn to overcome antibiotics and new drugs aren't available to counteract the situation. She said "antibiotics are losing their effectiveness at a ratte that is both alarming and irreversible, similar to global warming. TGhe apocalyptic scenario is that when I need a new hip in 20 years I'll die from a routine infection because we've run out of antibiotics." Ten years later the World Health Organization warns of AMR as a top 10 global public health threat. AMR is "antimicrobial resistance." It is the same issue Professor Sally Edwards warned about in England in 2013. Projections are that by 2050 AMR will cost Canada's healthcare system $7.6 billion. The British medical journal The Lancet showed that in 2019, 1.27 million deaths were already caused by AMR. Between 2010 and 2019, 18 novel antibiotics were introduced across 14 develope nations. Only 2 of these new antibiotics are available in Canada. Guest: Jason Tetro. Microbiologist.

The Clean Fuel Regulation of the Trudeau government analyzed by the Parliamentary Budget Officer. The PBO calls the CFR "broadly regressive" and says its price increase for gasoline and diesel will by the time it's fully implemented in 2030 be more hurtful to lower-income households in Canada. Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault calls the PBO report "unbalanced" and Gerald Butts, Justin Trudeau's former advisor ripped the report as "incompetence on climate change." - As well, Guilbeault accused the PBO of an 'unbalanced modelling approach" in the "analysis of the price of pollution." PBO report shows most Canadians will be worse off in the federal government's imposed carbon tax. - Plus, what is the expected cost of servicing the $1 trillion-plus national debt? Guest: Yves Giroux. Parliamentary Budget Officer (PBO).

In just 4 weeks of living in my vehicle I'm exhausted from lack of sleep, I'm sore, I'm hungry, I'm job hunting feverishly and I'm watching my credit score plummet as I can't keep up with minimum payments.
