Dr Sam Hickman - Specialist Prosthodontist

We may not be ‘real’ doctors, but the dental community can help fill the hospitals PPE shortage. Today my team made a donation to the @OttawaHospital of much needed PPR. Protecting front line health workers helps all of us in battling this disease. @ottawahealth

@ManicciCarMats started deteriorating a couple weeks after install in my Model S. Adhesive holding grommets in place is very weak. Poor quality. Even worse is their customer service. They don’t respond to warranty emails, calls, or messages. Regretful purchase.

@theroyalfdn I’m getting an error trying to make a donation this morning. Error comes up on multiple devices and with different credit cards.

I am certain I saw Bob McDonald of @CBCQuirks walking on a street in Ottawa today. I made a U-turn to confirm, but he went down a one-way street. The mystery of whether it was him will haunt me for days 🤣 #PossibleDoppelgänger

@rubyeisenpresse @HomeDepot THANK YOU!!!!!

@HomeDepot @ProsthoSam

We formally invite you to save the date 💀 Mark your calendars because on July 15, Skelly is back in stock with some new and old giant friends! While supplies last.

@CFRAOttawa Not us! We installed @SpaceX Starlink earlier this year as internet outages are becoming increasingly common and a stable connection is becoming increasingly vital. Our credit card processing units had to be switched from cellular to WiFi and that’s about it. End the duopoly!

How has the Rogers outage been impacting you? Struggling to work from home or needing to find cash for errands? Ottawa Now wants to hear from you! Reach out here or to corey.price@bellmedia.ca with your story.

@ftw @Rogers @SpaceX @elonmusk @CRTCeng @SpaceXStarlink I waited 8 mo. as I’m in a city. It was a great decisions. Rogers quoted me $90/month for a 40gb LTE backup which would be down. I need to get Starlink to the roof, which I plan on getting done soon. Working ideally today. Get on the waitlist and decide later. Worth it.

@ProsthoSam @Rogers @SpaceX @elonmusk @CRTCeng I'm SO TEMPTED to get @SpaceXStarlink as a backup here in Toronto as well. Starlink site says my address will be available in 2023. #rogersdown

@Rogers outage in Canada. They offered LTE backup with cable internet which would have been down today too. Delighted with @SpaceX Starlink. Doomsday package that can be turned on for outages would be nice, but I’m happy to pay for annual coverage as insurance. @elonmusk @CRTCeng

@FP_Champagne @CFRAOttawa End the duopoly! This is entirely the fault of the @CRTCeng and those that advance the current telecommunications duopoly in Canada.

My statement on the current Rogers outage:

@CBCAlerts Complete the @CRTCeng and anyone who endabled the formation and expansion of the Canadian telecommunications duopoly. @rogers needs to be broken up and competition allowed to enter.

BREAKING: Rogers networks down in areas across Canada. Outage affecting some 911 services, internet, wireless, Interac. cbc.ca/1.6514373

The @CRTCeng is fully responsible for the collateral damage today’s @rogers outage is causing. Lost productivity is immeasurable. A 3rd major player @Verizon / @VodafoneGroup is looking very sweet right now. Lives will be lost due to lack of 911, all to protect the duopoly.

Thread on Reddit confirms the outage is national. Is anyone able to confirm if @rogers mobile service is affected? #rogers #rogersoutage

@Rogers is experiencing a nationwide internet outage that appears to have started st 4:55AM EST. Tweets of outages span from Moncton, NB through to Vancouver, BC. I have 2 sites (home and business) offline as well as an inability to log in. Where are you experiencing an outage?

@mitote83 @outagedetect I’m in Ottawa and my Rogers internet went down a few mins ago at my home and business.

@outagedetect My Rogers in BC doesnt work again

💥😡 Critical Internet #outage detected: #Rogers in #Ontario #Canada since 4:45 AM 🇨🇦 Live map and analysis 👉 internet.fing.com/provider/Roger… Retweet if down for you too #rogershelps #Rogersdown #Rogersoutage #nointernet #night

@rcdso_org Is the level 1 for patients suspected of having or testing positive for covid-19 correct? With this the patient with the highest risk of spread have lowest level of protection from spreading virus. Seems the opposite is warranted, highest response for highest risk.

@rcdso_org It seems there is a possible typo. The guidelines suggest covid suspect and positive patients only don a Level 1 mask, but caregivers (parents) of a patient screening negative don an N95. This seems like a typo as lower protection is applied to highest risk. Please clarify.

@rcdso_org Your current mask guidelines (from March 2021) say “Dentists are responsible for enforcing the mask mandate on anyone entering the practice according to the policy in their municipality.”. My municipality has lifted all mask requirements. Please advise as guidelines are 15mo old

@samhickman13 - We have the same name and I think you used my email address while signing up for a betting website. The username was the same as your Twitter name. Feel free to DM me if you need help correcting the issue. #SamHickman

Keep in mind, a loan isn’t cash until it is forgiven. Sad the designers of #CECRA don’t understand this. Extraordinarily high risk for landlords. Great idea, horribly implemented. Sadly tenants lose. @CMHC_ca @CFIB @JustinTrudeau @fordnation

@Waze used to be my #1 driving app, but recent releases have had a major bug that prevents CarPlay from working properly. A sad day today as I had to uninstall it to fix the volume problem. They’ve always been slow with updates so likely won’t be fixed for several months.

Two days in a row @FedExCanada has marked my business as closed. WE ARE OPEN! Even with sign!!! I watched truck drive by both times. Customer service of absolutely no help.
