🇨🇦 SMEs manufacture user friendly lightweight reusable respirators & plant-based disposable masks now, first in the world & very green. Pls support better PPE, greener PPE & 🇨🇦 PPE. Pls buy 🇨🇦. 🙏

Dear @PSPC_SPAC, Govt says Single Use Plastics to be eliminated by 2030. Plastic straws & cutlery are already illegal. Govt policy says fed gov to lead by example & buy only 'green' PPE.

@freakinbox @GainOfDystopia @LazarusLong13 🇨🇦 SMEs produce materials, masks & respirators here in Canada, & can manufacture enough for the whole country, but the govt is not buying. 😢

Mild supply chain shortages coming up.

@mary_ng Thank you. Agreed. Fully support. Wish we would provide the same support for our Canadian PPE industry. 🇨🇦 😢

We will always defend Canadian dairy farmers, industry, and workers. Read my full statement:

Just a reminder, 🇨🇦 PPE mfrs are first in the world to manufacture plant-based medical masks as alternatives to SUPs. They also produce lightweight, easy-breathing environmentally-friendly reusable respirators. @CAPPEM2 @Prescientx1 @PADMmedical @SwencoLtd @CAPE_ACME @ccghc

Paul Sweeny, President of Swenco Medical, proud 🇨🇦manufacturer of medical masks including one of only 2 companies making first in the world plant-based compostables. 👏👏👏 Go Canada! 🇨🇦 .@CAPPEM2 swencomedical.com

@RichieofPi1 Those are only reported cases based on limited testing. The real numbers are 50-fold higher. Check healthdata.org & covid19resources.ca

What a difference a mask makes. #BringBackMasks

We could publish a National Standard for Bioaerosol respiratory protection & include children as well as adults. .@GovCanHealth

We could start by addressing the two biggest drivers of community cases, schools & hospitals.

Want to keep kids in school? #BringBackMasks

Canada has world class environmentally friendly PPE including plant-based masks & reusable respirators. And world class heroes who wear them. 🇨🇦 cappem.ca

RT @BarryHunt008: Last fall 5% of kids in 🇨🇦 had been infected w CoVID. We stopped wearing masks. Now 80% of kids have been infected. F…

@8th_block @WithSpiders And it's not counting the knock-on costs of losing availability of 10,000 hospital beds, postponed & cancelled surgeries, unfathomable wait times, lost wages, labour shortages, productivity losses, supply chain interruptions, inflation, taxes & GDP. $100B? More? 🤷‍♂️

According to covid19resources.ca/public/vaccine… it costs Canada $20M / day, $7B per year, to treat COVID patients in Hospital. That would buy a lot of masks & respirators - enough to supply every person in 🇨🇦 for years.
