What, what, what do people mean by that?
8:04
Yeah.

This guy, Josh Shapiro, is a ruthless politician, and he's somebody that's after power.
8:12
And as you noted, you know, there's, there's been text messages when, uh, a baby had died allegedly of measles.
8:21
He immediately ran, without any empathy for this family, and called a national press conference to promote the need for these regulations without having all of the information.
8:34
He'll do anything.
8:35
His goal, uh, is to become president of the United States.
12:33
Am I, am I wrong on that, uh, Jason Ritchie?

And then also, I was just wondering, you know, if you could share with us maybe one or two things about the ALS Society of Canada as an organization that you would like to highlight for our listeners.
54:12
My joining of the ALS Canada Board of Directors was somewhat tied into my personal ambitions at that point in my life.
54:19
I was looking to get into some level of board management and board participation.
54:25
And then lo and behold, I got my diagnosis.
54:28
And what that diagnosis does is it accelerates a lot of things in your life.
54:33
I don't have a bucket list necessarily.
54:35
I have an abject list of things I want to get to, but I have to get to them faster.
