“What’s disturbing about the scandal though, is how blatant it is. Political appointees are handing out hundreds of millions of dollars from a public slush fund to organizations that are either close to the government or that hire the right political insiders.”

Anecdotally what I'm seeing a lot is patients either avoiding the emerg completely or leaving after several hrs of waiting. Then they wait days or weeks to see me in the office, which is often not appropriate or safe. Sometimes, I have to send them straight back to the emerg. This is really bad.

This long weekend, consider the future of Wasaga Beach: a provincially protected environment, home to the endangered plovers, that the Doug Ford gov't wants to transfer to the town's ownership to boost tourism. It's a complicated and possibly precedent-setting tale.

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats. Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

The Ontario election was one of the most egregious distortions of democracy in recent memory. The winning party got a huge majority with just 43% of the vote. The second-place party came a distant third in seats. We need proportional representation in Ontario and Canada.

Emergency room wait times are going to get worse in Ontario. Long ER wait times and shutdowns are predictable consequences of Ontario’s chronic lack of investment in health care. It continues to rely on short-term fixes disguised as solutions.

Here's the thing about this: It isn't a boycott really. On one level I'm not travelling to the US because of moral objections, sure. But the really powerful factor for me is just a basic risk assessment. The American administration is clearly aggressively hostile to foreigners, and people like me.

I see some discourse about ditching the former Twitter, and so I'll remind folks that the best reason to there is that it's a fucking Nazi bar and we all deserve better. I'm on social media to enjoy conversation with cool folks. Bluesky does a bang-up job of that. The former Twitter doesn't.

Ontario has a science centre that should be open but was closed prematurely and a transit station that was named for the science centre that’s closed because it was never opened. The Ford government just isn’t good at governing.
