How do you decide which theory, model, or framework (TMF) should guide your next implementation project? Our team has just published SELECT-IT in @implementsci.bsky.social — a four-step meta-framework that turns that question into a replicable process: doi.org/10.1186/s130... @jgrimshaw.bsky.social

The polls for Carlton are unlikely to be accurate this time. Polling only captures part of the picture.
Turnout will play a HUGE role in this battle. If Liberal & NDP voters unite behind Fanjoy then get out and vote on Monday, Poilievre will get to retire.

Pierre Poilievre's Carleton riding tops early voting numbers in 2025 federal election
The tally comes amidst speculation that Poilievre, who has held the riding for two decades, may be in a tight race to be re-elected Monday.

My father, Frank Grimshaw, was a photographer with the UK National Coal Board in the North West of England from the late 1950s to early 1970s. He shot a remarkable body of work. We have an exhibition in Toronto, Canada 3rd May - June 22nd. (We are trying to organize a UK exhibition next year).

Almost certainly true.

But 1) the limits on individual rights were often quite local - quarantine one ship, close one restaurant, etc. They were often of short duration.
The COVID-19 pandemic meant the limits on rights were broad & lasted months

It's not an exaggeration to say that the Trump/Musk regime has figured out a way to pull off a global holocaust without invading a single country or dropping a single bomb. When you see it as intentional and not as the unfortunate byproduct of cutting government waste it's very clarifying.
The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB

Killing children is by design, I'm afraid. "Pro-natalists" like Musk claim they aren't racist, but their pressure to have children is solely focused on white women, while they back policies that literally kill of non-white children.
He's a eugenicist.
