There is an impressive number of complex metrics that economists, sociologists, psychologists and other “How are people doing?” -oenologists have used over the years to determine the health of a society: life expectancy, GDP, how many people are killed in a global pandemic each year, how close the country is to sliding into authoritarian fascism, etc. But—if we’re being completely honest—many of these metrics have the major drawback of being complete and utter bad....

According to the BC Center for Disease Control, 18 cases had been confirmed in the province as of Thursday. All confirmed cases are in the Vancouver Coastal Health Region.

A team of surgeons at NYU Langone Health in New York City performed the procedures on two patients who were brain dead but still breathing on life support on June 19 and July 9. In both cases, the person’s body did not reject the heart, and the pigs’ hearts functioned normally without the need for a device – unlike previous patients who had experimented with similar transplants. While the process of xenotransplantation – moving an organ from one species to another – is still in its early stages, experts hope that these kinds of discoveries will help fill the shortage of available organs around the world, especially for children....

“We will do things differently,” Jean Dubé said on May 24, 2019. “We will find solutions. And we will put an end to homelessness.” The then executive director of House of Nazareth announced that the charity, with financial support from the federal and provincial governments, would purchase a former gym in downtown Moncton. It would become, Dubé said, a 120-bed homeless shelter.
