If someone files a Freedom of Information request about this new tracking system, the response will be the City cannot process the FOI request at this time due to the ongoing impacts of the cybersecurity failure.

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre abandoned his "verb the noun" rhetoric on the campaign trail today. Instead, the lifelong politician told the crowd how much he appreciates the critiques of political pundit Steve Boots, adding that watching WTHC? is better than any cabinet meeting.

The archbishop of Toronto, Cardinal Frank Leo is headed to Rome for the conclave to elect the next Pope. If elected, Vatican experts say it is only a matter of time until maple syrup is decreed an appropriate substitute for the Eucharist.

After the death of Pope Francis, conservatives across Canada are expressing anger at what they call an unfair & unjust system. "It's bad enough we didn't get to vote for PM, but now they won't let us vote for the new Pope either!" said one Protestant who failed both high school civics & religion.

After having a line of questioning ruled 'out of order' during public delegations regarding the 2025 budget, Clr Danko has hired 3 outside experts to assist him for future public delegations. There is no record of a public procurement process for the position.

Hamilton city council looked at the rules surrounding public delegations today. Due to existing charter protections of freedom of expression citizens will continue to be allowed to delegate, but those deemed "troublemakers" may be required to do so from a pillory, at the chair's discretion. #HamOnt

Kanye West & Taylor Swift, Madonna & Elton John, Cameron Kroetsch & JP Danko? A made-in #HamOnt feud is playing out on social media right now. While it may not end up on a BuzzFeed listicle, for some any public celebrity beef just can't be ignored.

Today, after several delegates questioned her research, conclusions, logic, & decision making during yesterday's council meeting, Clr Pauls said in a statement, "The rules were you weren't going to fact check."

President-elect Donald Trump says he's looking forward to 8 more years in the White House—"My first term was 'President Donald Trump', this time it's 'Convicted Felon President Donal Trump', so that resets the 2-term limit."

Ford 'optimistic' about second Trump presidency, says Ontario and U.S. share ‘important’ rich friends.

Homelessness is on the rise in Ontario. While cities are struggling with Charter protections to limit where the homeless can legally exist, Ford is daring them to approach on bended knee & beg for the notwithstanding clause. Trudeau has pledged federal support by expanding MAID.

As a legal battle over unhoused people's right to exist comes to a head some Clrs are looking for a more final solution to the homeless question. In response to the case Clr Danko said "I don't get how anyone can support encampments", adding, "I don't support the homeless at all.

"More & more Ontarians are struggling to afford their groceries," the Premier said while giving a press conference about alcohol sales inside a Costco, "so my government's next step is to see alcohol available at food banks across the province!"

Ford announced today that his government is in talks with several payday loan outlets as the province looks to outsource distribution aspects of social assistance—"Vulnerable Ontarians shouldn't have to wait in line to lose 17% of their cheques; it should happen automatically."

Premier Ford announced today that Ontario has signed a contract with Restaurant Brands International to give Tim Hortons exclusive rights to polling stations for future provincial elections. Ford also announced that voter registration cards will be mailed with a $10 Timmies card.

I'm depressed and laughing after this. Knowing that it's not outside the possibility, but also remembering that is a satire account.

After ONDP leader Stiles confirmed that #HamOnt Centre will run a candidate against MPP Jama, sources inside the party told us they have eyes on Clr Dano for the role—"He's the perfect fit for the party's new direction; & if he declines we hear Whitehead isn't busy these days."
