That's exactly it. The Liberals' entire platform, at the provincial and federal level, is "we're not the Cons". Federally that worked because Carney is a less distasteful ghoul than Poillevre, but in Ontario it pitted Crombie and the Liberals and their recent history against Ford -- who has shown to be basically competent in a crisis and not constantly cartoonishly evil. It's sad that "not a scooby-doo villain" is the bar, but that's the reality.

    Providence is running a new study on treatments for major depression.

    This family of studies (Can-Bind, https://canbind.ca/) is pretty cool; the goal is to identify biomarkers to predict treatment response. In short, they're hoping to find a blood test that will predict what treatment will work best for you. No more 40-year epic journeys of trying one thing after another.

    More info over on Reddit.
