It’s a stat that should always be monitored to make sure it isn’t being abused, but is it an increase or a return to pre-pandemic levels? I suppose it’s all in how the headline frames it, right?

During Covid there was a Canadian family that picked up & moved there. They created a social media following & anti vaxxers were cheering them on. They weren't there that long & found it wasn't what they had expected. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Has anyone heard what they're doing now?

2,550 jobs lost at Conestoga College campuses in the last 14 months!

It would be the same as OPP saying *We suspect illegal drug activity on this street, so we're going to search everyone's home.* I would hazard guess that a lot of homeowners would have issues with that.

Only 17.7% vaccinated?? That's insane!

Just heard a morning radio host state that because everyone knows that there will never be any charges filed, everyone has moved past the Epstein files...that they're no longer something that people are interested in. Really? I think he's underestimating people's interest in getting justice.

It's much easier [cheaper?] to keep parents of kids that have achieved a HUGE milestone from entering the hospital & having a small celebration, than providing full access to vaccines for all. NOTE: Since this was posted by a parody acct, I almost thought this was a joke, then I read the article.

My head hurts after that. It certainly was 15 minutes that US networks will never live down.

Trump is pushing for more and more concessions from the UK. It's time we stand up to Trump! Take action now: act.globaljustice.org.uk/node/4305

Not too long ago hubby & I were deciding where to holiday this winter. He was looking at Curaçao. We quickly stroked them off our list after the JetBlue incident. 😬

guess they couldn't get the knob out of the shot

Doug's going to get his long awaited for ferris wheel. 🎡 🤦🏼‍♀️ #onpoli www.ontario.ca/files/2025-1...

Police seize hundreds of fraudulent gift cards in Kitchener

I don't even need to watch or read the news anymore. I'm watching reruns of The West Wing & the US just seized an oil tanker headed to Iran. I'll watch the next episode & let everyone know what we're going to read about next. 📰 M'kay? 😉

Does the mayor understand there's protocol to follow for emergencies? Mayor contacts the province, then province contacts the feds.

Fred Delory on Pierre's polling numbers with convention delegates at around 90%... Those are North Korea numbers. 😆

Another one crosses the floor to the Liberals! Are there more that are tired of Poilievre just spinning his wheels & going nowhere? #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

The dump of snow that's been forecasted for Wednesday has just started falling in Cambridge. ❄️❄️❄️ I'm just hoping I can get it all cleared before it turns slushy & then freezes.

If they had worked in the same retail facility or factory floor when this took place, the outcome would have been much different. It was only because of this guy’s prestigious title that he only ended up with a peace bond. #onlaw

Trump wanted the Nobel Peace Prize but got the FIFA appease prize instead

Whoa, Nellie!! 🐎😆 When driving in the rural parts of Waterloo Region, there's a pretty good chance you'll come across a horse & buggy that you have to share the road with. But I've never come across one without a driver.

Dear MAGA: You can goad Canadians with this “51st state” bullshit and get our goobers all frothy & aroused, and we’ll just roll our eyes. But if you continue to fuck with Franklin, we *will* unleash the squadrons of cobra chickens. Govern yourselves accordingly. We’re not fucking around, Canada

We've all been that raccoon at one point in our life...either sprawled on the bathroom floor or with our head in the bowl hurling. I recall one occasion spending too much time at the schnapps bar during Oktoberfest 😆

As if the OHL & hockey in general don't have enough of a PR problem, Guelph's winning bid seems to have a bit of an odour to it. 👃

I get the part about sharing expertise with smaller authorities that don't have the resources but…why does my mind then go to thinking that this will somehow benefit Dugg’s developer pals? Fewer conservation authorities to deal with & steamroll over when they want to start bulldozing? 🤔 #GRCA

So glad to hear that Todd is up & around. He did so much for our community when he had Wuddup Dog. He was the first to sign on to any fundraiser & provided free turkey dinners at Xmas for anyone. Visit *Doc MacCheesey* at the medical bldg across from the Charcoal Steak House. #cbridge

If you're on the #401 westbound through Cambridge, it's going to be one of those *you can't get there from here* kind of days. [sigh]

CARNEY when asked about his most recent interaction with Trump: "It wasn't newsworthy." This is what I meant the other day when I referred to it as "inane". It's been mindless drivel. C'mon people! Don't go down the sewer with the media & opposition. Focus on the important stuff. #cdnpoli

Wondering if he got wind of many exiting to Canada for work, where US nursing credentials are recognized & he thinks this is a way of keeping them in the US. @todmaffin.com

When Ukraine is not just about Ukraine: Europe's leaders are rushing to ensure the US-led peace talks don't give Russia a chance to redraw the rules of the continent's security “This is Russia changing Nato policy,” said @claudmajor.bsky.social. “Even Stalin didn’t achieve that.” on.ft.com/44vYrkl

This local case has been dragging on for years with delay after delay. There's a link within the article that shows the timeline of the case going back to the first complaint in 2017.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired. If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

If the folks at Crave thought adding this to their lineup would bring in new subscribers...they were wrong.

The Paris-Port Dover Pipe Band accompanied Paul McCartney tonight playing Mull of Kintyre. 🎶

This is really happening. Right now.

This has always been the Democrats' position: release it all and let the chips fall. It is Trump and Republicans who have been handwringing about people who may be "falsely accused" in the files. Let the people decide. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Yeah baby!!! 🚅

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community. The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution. Don’t give up the ship.

Not a good look for our mayor who loves her Strong Mayor Powers or the brand new City Manager that's only a couple of weeks into this job. Even her allies on council are having a difficult time processing what she's doing. 🤨 #cbridge

An excellent documentary tonight at 10pm on PBS Buffalo. It goes thru the differences btwn the Canadian & US banking systems, how they were initially set up, why we didn't have to bail out banks & why we recovered faster. Or you can watch it on YouTube later. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiTH...

Ugh! 🤦🏼‍♀️

The block!

Pierre is going to be mighty angry if the budget passes. Looks like he went to all the trouble of clearing his calendar to get ready to campaign. 😆 #cdnpoli

Powerful PSA! Must share!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #EpsteinFiles

JD Vance is very consistent… in saying or doing whatever it takes to get ahead politically.

Is everyone seeing the same thing I am? Come to Ontario, where every day is laundry day! 🤨 #FordFailedOntario #onpoli

The legal profession's version of that creepy guy at the bar that won't leave you alone. “It is reasonable to conclude that he knew, or should have known, that his conduct and pronouncement of affections would frighten people,” Olver added.
