Love nature, birds, animals, blue skies, kind people and good conversation 🇨🇦
While Doug shows off & revels as the host this week, with his shiny motorcades, colourful police escorts, entertaining premiers at his fancy monster cottage (mansion), we won’t forget what real smiling Doug has been secretly up to just in the last month.🧐
I wrote to the Integrity Commissioner to ask her to consider new information, revealed today by reporters at The Trillium, in deciding whether to investigate if Bill 5's cancellation of the environmental assessment for the Dresden landfill was improperly influenced by political…
We have been asked by @TDSBDirector & TDSB Supervisor to return our cellphones, computers & devices by Friday. Today, woke up to find this on my iphone. I must admit that I was expecting the common courtesy of prior notification if the TDSB intended to kill access before Friday.
On the order from Min. of Education, @TCDSB Trustees who represent 88,000 students in 200 Catholic schools have now been locked out of their accounts. A shameful day for democracy in Ontario, and a sad day for parents/families. Despite these efforts, we will not remain silent
“Please open the comments so I can reply with homophobic comments and swear at you as it’s my hobby and also my identity. Also, I don’t have the courage of my convictions so I won’t be doing this under my own name. Thank you for your understanding.”
🟥 Awww… This is so heartwarming. 🫂 One ORGANIZED the siege on Ottawa 🚛🚛, and the trucks that occupied and terrorized the residents of the Capital for weeks: ▪️Damaging our economy to the tune of billions ▪️Interfering with people’s ability to get to work and causing job…
The top fundraiser for Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives works for developers, while also raising money from them for the party. ⬇️
#ONpoli Great profile of Tony Miele - who has been making shady backroom deals between the Ontario PC Party and developers for decades (and sold tickets to the infamous Ford Stag and Doe)
While @fordnation didn’t invite Labour to events & left prior in the middle of a breakfast with nurses & labour reps, @Dave_Eby spoke with fed presidents for over an hour & @WabKinew stopped by to connect. This is what leadership, who values all labour, looks like. Take notes
Land speculators have come for Ontario’s: 1)greenbelt 2)agricultural lands 3)Ontario Science Centre 4)Ontario Place 5)the ring of fire 6)school lands 7)conservation lands 8)Wasaga Beach
The Ontario government wants to hand over 645 acres of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park — nearly 1/7 of it — to developers. They're also trying to gut the law that protects all our Parks. This land belongs to the people, not developers. Read more: bit.ly/46TR1cE
Mike Crawley has written a very informative article about what you need to know about CUSMA compliance and how it could protect much of Canada's cross-border trade from Trump's tariffs. An excellent read ⬇️
Hi folks, I’m in Washington, filling in at the CBC bureau for the next few weeks. Here’s my first piece, on how CUSMA shields the vast bulk of Canadian exports from Trump’s tariffs. cbc.ca/news/canada/ta…
Here’s the quality of response to your parental concern that you can look forward to from the Ministry of Education: #topoli #onpoli #onted
“The Minister of Education and the Supervisor are now the School Board” @Markus4Ward2 lays out with @gregbradyx what it means for you now that your School Board is under supervision: open.spotify.com/episode/5LYrVf… #topoli #onpoli #onted
Can we stop assuming electoral consent for a government that has repeatedly used personal devices & emails, is under criminal investigation (could be for multiple things) was elected by ~15% residents under false pretenses & avoided voter awareness of plans #onpoli #cdnmedia
Ford’s legacy Ontario has the highest debt of any subnational in the world. And our OPP wore gold helmets for the Muskoka meeting of the premiers. Priorities sadly askew.
The premiers and I are united. We are focused on building one, strong Canadian economy, together.
Trump claims he couldn't have made Epstein's creepy birthday card, but allow Jon Stewart to counter with exhibits A through Z
Trump's in full deflection mode right now!
Unhinged meltdown
Trump: "Barack Hussein Obama is the ringleader. Hillary Clinton was right there with him and so was Sleepy Joe Biden, Comey, Clapper. They tried to rig an election and they got caught. And then they did rig the election in 2020. And then because I knew I won that election by a…
I’m old enough to remember Doug Ford promising to flood the market with brand new $500k homes at FordFest in Kitchener a couple of years ago.
I think this meets the technical definition of "not good". The sale of new homes in the GTA has virtually stopped.
Canadian-made everything? Doug Ford has sold off a key portion of vibrant public waterfront in Canada’s largest city to a European MegaSpa company and is forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for their $600,000,000+ parking garage.
“We’re encouraging all provinces and territories: start buying Canadian-made vehicles. Start buying Canadian-made everything,” says Ontario Premier Doug Ford, responding to a reporter's question re: steel & aluminum tariffs ahead of premiers’ meeting in Huntsville, Ont. #cdnpoli
Artificial intelligence can be used to mimic someone's appearance or voice. While deepfake images and videos can be used in harmless ways, a large and growing number are created to embarrass, intimidate, or exploit. And in most cases, it's women and girls who are targeted. ⬇️
Being a parent today means protecting more than your home; it means securing your child’s digital world, too. Learn how to spot deepfakes, set healthy boundaries, and keep your child safe online.
Premier Ford gets kudos from other premiers for the OPP Golden Helmets show of force.
