Doug Ford's right wing flunkies say that people who are pissed that he spent $28 million of taxpayers money on jet are a "petty jealous mob." They are citizens who deserve funded ERs or have kids with special needs who should have support in school. Ford needs to stop whining.

Lol... let's check in in 6 months to see if Doug the grifter has really sold the private jet that he used taxpayer's money to purchase. How about focusing on emergency rooms and doctor shortages Dougie rather than a quick trip to your cottage? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

As Canadians rally to stand up to the threat from Washington Poilievre is trying desperately to walk in Trump's shoes. Doofus. A total doofus.

Oh, my American friends, you’re trying to make Spam Canadian, eh? Sorry, but it’ll never replace peameal bacon. Elbows up! #spam #peamealbacon #elbowsup

Tarmac, aka tarmacadam, is named after engineer John Loudon McAdam (1756-1836) of Ayr, Scotland. Macadamia nuts are named after chemist, doctor and politician John Macadam (1827–1865) of Glasgow, Scotland. It is important not to confuse the two. Dry roasted, salted tarmac makes a poor snack.

Stephen Lewis has gone to the angels. He was a relentless fighter for justice. When I was 9 my Granny (an immigrant mining widow) made me sit in front of the TV and listen to him speak about compensation for mining victims. His passion and commitment stayed with me. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Still scanning old negatives… This is my wife back in 1992. We were coordinators with the Mariposa Folk Festival, and believe it or not, it was the first day of summer! #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #portrait #scannednegative #photography
