5 reasons why bailing out rich Vancouver condo developers with taxpayer money is what the free market is all about, by Mark Carney

The Canadian taxpayer paid for this bridge and expects to be reimbursed. Not one inch. Not one GD inch to give. We will let it sit there. I think we should set up a summer street fair on the thing. Have giant parties and concerts.

Why is Captain Canada ok with this sending patient lab samples from Life Labs to USA Quest lab for testing? www.thesudburystar.com/news/stop-li...

“I can’t stand this place anymore,” he said. “These major tech giants will burn everything to the ground as long as they’re making a profit. They’re not interested in anything that’s going to slow them down.” “It makes me anxious for our students,” Cooper said. “It’s starting to scare me.”

One thing everyone can do to hurt the first trillionaire is to stop using the website he uses to foment violence and feel like an intellectual big shot. If you're not even willing to stop using a website that sucks to stick it to a Nazi, you're not willing to do anything. This is a low fucking bar.

Start leaking, civil servants

Any self-respecting government would toss Hoeckstra out (“sorry, no ambassadors who think we shouldn’t be a sovereign state”) but here we are.

One of our dogs is a volunteer therapy dog who has been assessed as safe to work with kids and does so regularly. The assessor stressed to us that ALL dogs -- even those with the most placid temperaments -- are capable of aggression. Off-leash dogs are a danger in the community.

This is a wild story, and everyone in Toronto should read it. A major American bank is behind the push to expand Billy Bishop airport. It has nothing to do with what people in the city want. This should be a HUGE election issue

The feds have to do something about the notwithstanding clause. It’s been used to trample rights by several governments, and it’s gone too far.

"Now that the appeal has effectively been lost, the order to get phone records from the premier’s cellphone is active again. The IPC wrote to the government on Friday, notifying civil servants they must begin work to comply with it again." #OnPoli

Do you think Doug Ford would ever reach out to find out how Finland did this? Hell no. #onpoli

I went on @meidastouch.com and talked to @charlieangus104.bsky.social about my deep dive into the connections between US ambassador Pete Hoekstra’s political network and the app at the centre of the massive data breach involving 3 million Alberta voters You can watch here 👇

We're appealing that decision to the IPC because, while the original request was directed to the minister's office, briefings are written by civil servants and therefore still publishable under the updated law. #Onpoli

He's a hostile enemy agent working to undermine Canadian sovereignty in prelude to an attack. He has violated his diplomatic credentials and is persona non gratia. He MUST be expelled.

Within 10-15 yrs, we will rue the days we allowed our political leaders to strip Canada, & Ontario, of its public assets. And judge harshly 2 of the men who led the privatization process, PM Carney & Pr Ford. In Ont, an assist goes to hapless, own goal scoring prowess of @ontarioliberal.bsky.social

Teachers and nurses need to walk off the job and shut down this province.

X derives its power from newsmakers and influencers choosing to post their content there If official and influential accounts stop posting there, it’ll just turn into right-wing influencers yelling at each other and everyone else will get bored and leave

"I'm not saying you couldn't improve the process. But trying to jam through projects & making major changes, similar to what we saw under Stephen Harper, isn't going to do that. It's going to result in a lack of trust…protests…lawsuits. And that's going to be a lot slower and a lot more divisive.”

The Ontario Nurses’ Association says "the Hospital Labour Disputes Arbitration Act is among the most restrictive of its kind in Canada. Association president Erin Ariss says it prevents not just full strikes, but also other forms of job action." #OnPoli

This is courageous and essential reporting. A wake up call for Albertans and Canadians. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Liberal MPs have been playing playing passive, coy & cagey w their real island airport feelings, but they’re deeply implicated - even making concrete expansion plans! I go thru some of them in my @thestar.com column today & why they owe Torontonians some honest loyalty. They could stop it today.

Q: Wow! WTG Elizabeth May! #StornowayStowaway! 💞 We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to stop funding Stornoway as a private residence for the Leader of the Official Opposition.

One week ago I made a pledge in a post on this app that I would donate money to any organization that was willing to make this challenge. Now I know who I’m donating to. Fellow Ontarians, I suggest you consider doing the same.

Democracy Watch is arguing that the govt's actions breach the right of voters to be informed for a meaningful debate about public issues. This also gives the story a new news hook; it gets the FOI issue in front of the public again. This doesn't help Ford & his govt's approval numbers. #OnPoli

Regardless of which vaccine & variant we're talking about: boosters reduce probability of hospitalization & death in all age groups, but most markedly amongst people 65+. Risks due to vaccination are non-zero but trivial, even more so for older people, for whom benefits dramatically outweigh risks.

No wonder Jaime Watt of Navigator tried to spin the jet fiasco in his latest column for the Star. #OnPoli

NEW: In the month after he ordered civil servants back to the office because he said people perform better at work, Doug Ford regularly worked from his Etobicoke home and via Microsoft Teams. #OnPoli globalnews.ca/news/1181649...

Remember when the RCMP were supposed to conduct and inquiry into Ford’s Greenbelt corruption? Still nothing on that

The ‘gravy plane’ mess has sent a message: Doug Ford should retire

After vowing x 6 in QP that inmates that were mistakenly released were apprehended IMMEDIATELY, ON Sol General apologized for providing information that "was not fully accurate." NB. Know how we know 157 were mistakenly released & not immed apprehended? A Global News FOI tinyurl.com/mv4eaby8

"The decision to buy the jet during a cost-of-living crisis in which people are struggling to afford to gas up their vehicle or fill their grocery cart with staples was incomprehensible. I’d call it an own goal, but it was more akin to the team setting its stadium on fire." #OnPoli

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/...
