The Fediverse has lots of Canadian content! I am more likely to include an account that posts once a week than once an hour, and an account that has specific Canadian content over an account that just happens to be by a Canadian or a Canadian institution. I have not focused on people who want you to be angry about the news because those people are easy to find (and its not very Canadian, eh?) Remember that many Mastodonians chose to review follow requests. They are more likely to say "yes" if you look like a human with a filled-out profile and some posts.

This is @MoriartyLab from Twitter. I'm an Associate Prof at University of Toronto and lead of COVID-19 Resources Canada. On Mastodon I'll post thread reader links to our weekly Forecast for all Canadian regions, plus monthly excess mortality updates. If you ever see that I haven't posted yet, you can go to the links to the COVID-19 Resources Canada pages in my bio to find the info. I'm trying to interact more here and on Twitter, but am really time-constrained. I'm so sorry!
