As @maritstilesndp.bsky.social says; INFURATING. Imagine; Doug Ford, an uneducated, born rich college flunk out who never had to look for a job in his entire pampered coddled spoiled rich jerk life - denying students WAAAAY poorer and WAAAY smarter than him grant money. www.chch.com/chch-news/ta...

Canada's ongoing defiance of Trump has infuriated the US. The PM's speech at Davos made Trump look isolated and weak on the global stage. There will be payback. Canadians must prepare for all scenarios including military intimidation. My latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/preparing-...

I learned so much visiting the newly opened Pìwànak — the Algonquin Centre for Science and Innovation at Algonquin College. These modern labs will help support so many students pursuing STEM. (1/2)

338 Canada's projections are out. Go back and review that since the CPC was dumb enough to keep Poilievre the party numbers are tanking! Projected 185 seat majority for the Liberals if this gets closer to 200 expect a snap election if the CONs keep stalling legislation. #cdnpoli

No Jamil, most Canadians did not say “ great, this guy’s trying to help”. Most Canadians said who’s this right wing nut job think he is and who the hell is he speaking for. www.breitbart.com/politics/202...

Trump is threatening to block construction of a publicly owned bridge connecting Detroit and Canada, despite supporting the project in his first term. A billionaire who privately owns a competing bridge met with Howard Lutnick just days before Trump announced his opposition. Funny how that works.

"(Region of Waterloo) currently lacks basic information on how much water the province has allowed companies to take, how many permits are active and what cumulative impacts those permits may be having. Concerns are also spreading beyond Waterloo." #onpoli @nationalobserver.com

How do you create a fresh water shortage in the country with the 4th largest renewable water resource in the world? You elect a corrupt, unprepared, clown. Three times! "Protect Ontario". What a bad joke. #onpoli #FordFailedOntario www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/06/n...

Chances are, you’re paying too much for groceries. 💸 Let’s take a look at why— and why it doesn’t have to be this way. Watch to the end for just one of the ways the Ontario NDP will rein in these outrageous prices.

After watching the clause-by-clause hearing, it is apparent that Bill S-209 is not a bill primarily focused on pornography sites. If it was, it could be drafted with those directly in mind. Rather, it is a trojan horse online harms bill targeting social media. www.michaelgeist.ca/2026/02/cour...
