Labour board to rule on legality of Ontario education strike as hearing ends A "frenzied and sleep-deprived" Ontario Labour Relations Board hearing to determine the legality of a strike by education workers stretched into a third and final day on Sunday, with a government lawyer arguing it doesn't matter whether the contract that now binds 55,000 employees was negotiated with their input or imposed upon them. Ferina Murji said strikes are prohibited in the midst of any contract, not just one that was ratified by union membership. "A collective agreement is a collective agreement is a collective agreement," she said. Murji made the comments on the third day of arguments before the board after thousands of workers walked off the job on Friday in protest of government legislation that imposed a contract on them and took away their right to strike. The government is seeking a ruling that their walkout is illegal, while the Canadian Union of Public Employees — which represents education workers — contends the job action is a form of legitimate political protest. The strike closed numerous schools across the province Friday, with even more set to shut on Monday should the work stoppage continue. "With 55,000 people not attending schools across the province, that means millions of students and their parents are left with nowhere to go, are left not learning, not getting the education that the Education Act ensures they will get," Murji said, stressing the importance of the board's intervention. Board Chair Brian O'Byrne heard arguments over the course of 16 hours on Saturday, with the hearing stretching into early Sunday morning, before resuming just hours later, at 7 a.m. As Day 3 of the hearing got underway, O'Byrne noted the "frenzied and sleep-deprived context of the hearings," which wrapped up on Sunday afternoon. He said he'd work to come to a decision as quickly as possible. "I honestly cannot tell you when I will get you a bottom line," O'Byrne said. "I'm going to try and do it by today. Hopefully I'll succeed." Earlier in the proceedings, CUPE's lawyer argued that an imposed contract should not be treated the same way as one that was negotiated through collective bargaining. "I do accept that Bill 28 is in writing. But it is not a voluntarily negotiated agreement," Steven Barrett said on Saturday. "It is deemed to be a collective agreement under Section 5 . but to call this a mid-contract withdrawal of services, as if this was a collective agreement freely negotiated, is a fundamental absurdity." Barrett told O'Byrne that should he deem the strike legal, the job action could continue until the government repeals its new legislation or until the union and government negotiate its end. The province's new law has set fines for violating the ban on strikes of up to $4,000 per employee per day — which could amount to $220 million for all 55,000 workers — and up to $500,000 per day for the union. https://www.cp24.com/news/labour-board-to-rule-on-legality-of-ontario-education-strike-as-hearing-ends-1.6141071
Ontario considering letting pharmacists prescribe Paxlovid for COVID-19: Moore Doses of the anti-viral drug Paxlovid are displayed in New York, Monday, Aug. 1, 2022. Ontario is considering allowing pharmacists to prescribe Paxlovid, an early treatment for COVID-19, in order to expand access, the province's top doctor says. THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP-Stephanie Nano Ontario is considering allowing pharmacists to prescribe the COVID-19 treatment drug Paxlovid in order to expand access, the province's top doctor says. Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore said recently that the health system will see a "triple threat" of COVID-19, a bad flu season and the resurgence of a childhood respiratory virus this fall and winter. Finding ways to ensure greater availability of medication to keep people with COVID-19 out of hospital is of particular importance for more rural communities, he said. "I do know the government is reviewing the ability of pharmacists to be able to prescribe this directly after a positive test," Moore said in an interview with The Canadian Press. "There was concern in particular in isolated areas. Where you may not have good access to a primary care physician, you may have access to a pharmacist. So that gap was looked at and I do believe they're working aggressively on that." Multiple medical officers of health around the province have raised the issue, Moore said. "I do think it is one solution in increasing the access," he said. A spokesperson for Health Minister Sylvia Jones did not respond to multiple requests for comment. Justin Bates, CEO of the Ontario Pharmacists Association, said his group has been pushing for pharmacists in the province to be able to prescribe Paxlovid, as colleagues in many other provinces already can. "Given our experience in point-of-care testing, our knowledge of medications – particularly complex medications like Paxlovid, where there's a lot of drug-to-drug interactions – and more, I would say, in-depth consultation that's required with patients, pharmacists are well-positioned to provide that as a turnkey solution," he said. Paxlovid is an antiviral medication taken orally within five days of symptom onset. It is recommended for people at high risk of COVID-19 complications, such as people over 70 and certain immune compromised people, particularly those without at least three vaccine doses. It can be prescribed by a primary care provider or at a COVID-19 clinical assessment centre. Having pharmacies as one more avenue for prescriptions will enable quicker access, and therefore keep more people out of hospital this winter, Bates said. "The earlier you started in five days, the better in terms of preventing serious symptoms and illness whereby you would then need to go to the hospital or, even worse, into the hospital's ICU," he said. Paxlovid is currently "sitting on shelves," Bates said. "The amount of volume going through the stores, anecdotally, is very low," he said. Moore said about 3,500 treatments of Paxlovid are currently being prescribed each week, noting demand appears to go up as COVID-19 activity rises. Ontario has already announced that as of Jan. 1 it is expanding pharmacists' prescribing powers to include medications for minor ailments such as conjunctivitis, dermatitis and hemorrhoids. If the government further expands the powers to include not just Paxlovid, but all antiviral medications, pharmacists could also prescribe Tamiflu – which has fewer drug interactions than Paxlovid – ahead of what is expected to be a bad flu season, Bates said. Dr. Zain Chagla, an infectious disease specialist at St. Joseph's Healthcare in Hamilton, said he thinks it's a great idea to have pharmacists prescribe Paxlovid, saying it could prevent people from being hospitalized for COVID-19. "These are preventable health-care outcomes," he said. "There really does need to be more of a push to get it more accessible and pharmacies have done an incredible job helping with COVID vaccines . The major issue with Paxlovid is drug interactions and so, having pharmacists prescribing it makes total sense "

Quebec hospital may remove child's breathing tube despite parents' objection: court The Quebec Superior Court is seen in Montreal, Wednesday, March 27, 2019. A Superior Court judge has ruled that a Montreal children's hospital can permanently remove a breathing tube from a five-year-old child who has been in a coma since June. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Ryan Remiorz A Quebec Superior Court judge has ruled that a Montreal children's hospital can permanently remove a breathing tube from a five-year-old who has been in a coma since June. The Sainte-Justine hospital sued the child's parents because they are refusing to consent to the procedure unless the hospital plans to reintubate the child if things go wrong. The hospital says doctors believe the child can breathe on his own and that continuing intubation will cause more harm. However, the hospital says that doctors say the child should be given end-of-life care in the event that he stops being able to breathe without support. https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/quebec-hospital-may-remove-child-s-breathing-tube-despite-parents-objection-court-1.6137774
Man accused of hurling racial slurs at couple, assaulting CTV reporter facing charges Criminal charges have been laid against a LaSalle man accused of hurling racial slurs against a couple and assaulting a CTV News reporter who later reported on the incident. Richard Marechal, 68, is facing charges of causing a disturbance, assault, and uttering threats in connection with the two incidents in the Montreal borough last August. The charges come after Montreal police arrested him on Sept. 29 and referred the case to Quebec's Crown prosecutor's office for review. Nadisha Hosein said she was pulling out of her driveway on Aug. 11 with her husband, Pramit Patel, and their eight-year-old daughter when a pedestrian came out of nowhere behind her.

Inuit community leads Arctic shift to clean energy: hydroelectric project to replace diesel In this image collage, Eric Atagotaaluk is seen doing his daily water test at the Innuksuak River. Upstream, construction is underway on a massive hydro electric project which will eventually get the community off diesel. These daily water tests were part of a community promise to ensure that the construction doesn't affect the quality of the river, which also supplies the community with drinking water. (Kaaria Quash) The Innavik Project was initiated in 2008 to lower local greenhouse gas emissions, and, once completed, will reduce carbon emissions by close to 80 per cent. "Climate change is very apparent here," Atagotaaluk said, reflecting on the impact of living with diesel. "Our fall and spring seasons are starting earlier or later, and you kind of feel trapped, and you want to do something for the climate. Although we are not big contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, we still do use a lot of diesel." About 1,800 people live in Inukjuak, one of 14 Inuit communities in the Nunavik region of Quebec. The town is located 1,500 kilometres north of Montreal and is accessible only by air. https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/inuit-community-leads-arctic-shift-to-clean-energy-hydroelectric-project-to-replace-diesel-1.6126078
Health officials urging Quebecers to stay home when sick, wear a mask Quebec public health officials are recommending people reintroduce face masks into their routines when they are feeling unwell, as respiratory viruses — COVID-19 and others — are circulating in the community. "If we have symptoms, wear a mask," said Dr. Jean Longtin, a microbiologist and clinical expert in pandemic management at the health ministry, at a news conference Thursday afternoon. The five-day isolation recommendation is also being dropped, the province announced Thursday. Public health is instead adopting a "common sense" approach for people to follow when they have a fever or flu-like symptoms. This includes staying home from work and school when sick and wearing a mask until symptoms disappear. Officials called on everyone to protect others and the health-care system through what they described as a "moral obligation." https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/health-officials-urging-quebecers-to-stay-home-when-sick-wear-a-mask-1.6137269
