We were pleasantly surprised many years ago in New York City by a Disney parade featuring Cinderella with Canadian-made ice sculptures for Cinderella’s fairytale!

Come on ONTARIO!! Make your voices heard!!

Ontario NDP has written to RCMP, province's top civil servant and IPC, worrying the changes to FOI could lead to deleted records. Gov says "established records‑retention policies" still cover all records. But Ford's cellphone has government work on it and won't be subject. #Onpoli

Your reminder to call a friend, or two, and make plans for tomorrow #FightFord Please share, we need a powerful message to be sent to this #Ontario government!

Don't know what to write? You can copy my email from the alt text. Please, this is important.

Citizens of Ontario are also worried about water conservation. We do not need another Walkerton.

From conning Ontarians to conning Americans today. Grandstanding Carney again. Auditioning for Poilievre’s job. You don’t have to watch the performance, but do read the article, ending with “I love Americans. … I’ve lived for 20 years in the States.” www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

SHAME SHAME 🤥 But he feels no shame and nor do his MPs. Keep complaining. There is more trouble hidden in this bill that we know. Keep watching for him to “trip” up, and not like the Gravy Plane fiasco. Besides that, remember to take enjoyable breaks from politics to keep your good spirits up.🌷

YIKES!!! 🚨 Breaking news at Queens Park FYI re: FOI Ford just scheduled a late-night sitting to ram through a law that would permanently hide his phone records, while under RCMP investigation. The NDP are staying up all night to fight it.

This is the first in a series of protests across Ontario to send a clear message that we will not let them privatize our public hospitals. Let's make a show of opposition commensurate to the threat. Locations in thread below 👇 #onpoli #dougford #healthcare #protest #ontario

Nice work! The timing and details felt off from the beginning - we’re being grifted #Ontario Stand Up! #FightFord protest April 25

Well researched article. Lots to consider here. Recommend you read the whole article! Shades of the gravy plane - luxury, hidden info, changed names, refusal to answer questions, accepting tax payer money. What else are they hiding and trying to get ahead of? How much was Ford a player in all this?

No government purchase is reversed this quickly. The private company had ownership, as far as I can tell. A diversion from the pending loss of FOIs. Likely, that gravy plane will now be leased for Ford’s domestic and especially foreign travel. Who ever needs to know?!! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Enjoy our home sweet home in the cosmos. 🌺🌎

Encapsulates it all. 🔨 Good time to remember the words sung by Peter, Paul and Mary in 1960. 🔨 🔔 🎶 And participate in a public protest nearby on April 25th! protestdougford.com/about/ #FightFordProtest

Much history on the previous stance of the Ford's right hand man who once called for more transparency, but not now has something to hide. Bravo. www.baytoday.ca/letters-to-t...

Please flood your MPPs with letters and calls. This is a gross perversion of accountability. #onpoli #DougtheThug #InvestigateFord #ANSWERTHEQUESTION #FordISCorrupt

Exactly. See what this jet stunt has done? Both press and opposition are only talking jets. Chyrons still putting up his “defence” lies. No one mentioning loss of FOI access. Success in making himself a martyred “hero”. Captain Canada has to give up his luxury jet, but reaps the rewards. We lose.

A very important very Canadian petition to sign. Promises of sweet maple syrup rewards! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We don’t need another Walkerton in ON.

A very Canadian 🇨🇦 knitter and designer, also on ravelry.com. Karla features many design favourites of Newfoundland, like lobsters and puffins. Her iconic Blue Jays baseball sweater is now proudly displayed in the Canadian Museum of History! www.karlacourtney.com

April showers ☔️ bring May flowers🌷, so I hear. But today, the weather planter says April showers bring only May chives. So I guess there is no bouquet 💐 but salad 🥗 instead!

Just a beginning to recoup all the millions of dollars stolen from Ontario tax payers, none for public health or public education.

Today is National Exercise Day so here’s a list of my ten favourite exercises… 1. Jogging my memory 2. Skipping a workout 3. Surfing the net 4. Jumping to conclusions 5. Skating on thin ice 6. Pushing my luck 7. Running my mouth 8. Kicking up a fuss 9. Catching forty winks 10. Throwing in the towel

You have to laugh so you don’t cry. I guess with the current Federal tax savings of 10 cents a litre, the tax payers can now afford a private jet.

Just checked, no Go train until July 6th and I suspect, probably only for the Stratford Festival performances in the summer.

Curious as to why the Toronto police in Ontario said that this was a routine training, when it has not been done by anyone since June 2023 when the Federal government initiated Exercise Vital Archer. Anyone know? www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

If you need a sweet treat today, a legal and delicious way to infuse maple syrup and sugar. Adjust as needed and consume wisely!

I have questions. Not enough speed or luxury, on our dime? A long line of purchases while Ontarians are scrimping to put food in the table. Chauffeurs, police cars, helicopters and now a jet. Next, Elon’s spaceship? After they have drilled the Toronto tunnel,of course. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I’m so glad that I read “Crazy Town” by Robin Doolittle to get an early knowledge of the Ford family.

I have always liked the bluebirds of happiness 🎶 and in spring, the robins singing. Even if singing for rain, as my Mom always said! I am happy to have my own Finnish glass blown Kuulas (bird), made by Oiva Toikka :)

Happy to see Canada hosting the President of Finland 🇫🇮 and he likes of play hockey too!

Loss of voting rights in local Ontario communities is looking dire.

Just a reminder ...

This rainy morning, the weather planter is hosting a sleepy mourning dove.

For those who saw or heard about Neil Armstrong travelling on Apollo 11, being the first man to walk (bounce) on the moon, do you recall a third part of his statement which included a credit to God? Similar to the statement by Victor Glover. I think that there was one. www.nasa.gov/history/55-y...

So proud of very Canadian Jeremy and very happy he made it back safely to earth!

It is absolutely insane that Ford could appoint a regional chair with overwhelming power over local government — even if they’re diametrically opposed to every single municipal and provincial politician elected in the region. It’s anti-democratic, it’s dishonest, and it serves no public purpose.

The regulator needs to test maple syrup sold to customers not just bulk syrup. Similar issue with pure honey being cut with corn starch etc.

Maple syrup producers breathe sigh of relief after productive tapping season - Fallen tree branches and debris can still be seen throughout Shaw’s Sugar Bush but that has not slowed down the sap as maple syrup producers around the region have had a successful season.

This was my first duck. When in primary grades, I walked to the corner store to buy a special gift for my teacher. My mother didn’t think the duck was special enough! She bought something else for me to gift. But Mom said that I could keep the little duck. It is still with me, but never had a name.

Maple syrup in Canada makes the news again! But not a laughing matter this time ;) www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I am comforted by all the community support for this student. It did not need to happen. I expect the culpable students to be held accountable. And more, I hope the community realizes that it is Ford’s failure to fund students with Autism that precipitated this tragedy. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

She is correct to be concerned, as should we all.
