I figure the odds be fifty-fifty. I just might have something to say. - Frank Zappa. Views are my own. @ecojustice_ca @BruceTrail_BTC @ortahikes @envirodefence
Great thread. Frank Zappa - calm, in control, brilliant, so incredibly prescient.
This is Frank Zappa on Crossfire in 1986. What he said then was true. It’s still true. Look at what we face today. It’s coming from the same source, attempting to do the same thing with our books, schools, and people they don’t like. And their vehicle is the government.
Imagine for 1 second a Canadian going into America & bashing their government, starting petitions, causing civil unrest. It would never be tolerated ! I can't understand why this hateful, MAGA, has not been escorted back to the border , Disgusting !
I’ve been in touch with senior White House officials and they are watching what is unfolding with blatant Christian persecution in Canada. 👀 We’re keeping all receipts too.
Now that Doug Ford has found out about Ontario's Provincial Parks which Park will be severed next? Forks of the Credit? Darlington? Bronte? The Pinery? Turkey Point? Long Point? Silver Lake? Bon Echo? Hockley Valley? Presqu'ile? Arrowhead? Algonquin? ???
Ford is pillaging Ontario's public assets. Next target: our Provincial Parks, starting with 645 acres of Wasaga Beach. "This is just another example of the Ford gov't stepping over Ontarians and handing out public land to private developers" cbc.ca/news/canada/to… #ONpoli
How many of those 4725 wire transfers were made between Trump and Epstein? And what were they for? America wants to know!
Trump: We are once again respected around the world. 🤪
How about you take your travelling grifting ChristoFascist road show back home? Bye.
This is what Ford will take The highway of 56 km’s that will cost billions and only help the developers that have profited off us for seven years This highway only helps developers! We need trees! We need our wetlands to survive! Can’t live off concrete #DougFordIsAFraud
One of the thousands of massive old trees that would be destroyed if the $10 billion Highway 413 plows through the best remaining natural areas in Vaughan #stopthe413 #onpoli
🚨Michelle Ferreri and Ben Mulroney made a ridiculous podcast to target Elizabeth Fry Society of Peterborough, including a personal attack on who they are as people. Ferreri continues to attack our community members, who actively make a difference — simply to promote herself‼️
Whether we have to call a special election, set up a ballot initiative, write a bill, or fight it out in court, make no mistake: If Texas Republicans go through with @realDonaldTrump's demands to redistrict the GOP to victory in the 2026 elections, California will be ready.
THREAD: Ontario’s debt is about to blow past $500 billion—the highest in provincial history. Doug Ford promised to balance the books. So why is debt exploding even as he’s cutting hospitals and schools? 🧵Let’s break it down: #onpoli

It started with Mike Myers, on SNL Too bad about Moe. Maybe Sat Night live is past his bedtime.
Scott Moe says, "elbows up is just a slogan". Elbows up is a commitment to fight back, in a trade war that we never asked for. You deserve a leader who is going to stand up to bullies, not cozy up.
Didn’t have this one on my 2025 calendar. The richest country in the world is now asking its citizens for donations on to help pay off its debt. Or billionaires could just pay taxes like everybody else.
BREAKING: US government now offering citizens option to donate via Venmo and PayPal to help reduce $36.7 trillion debt.

.@GavinNewsom: "I'm sick of it... This party needs to wake up. These guys aren't screwing around. And I say this not in a literal sense, but they're assassins when it comes to the way they weaponize grievance and the way they play politics. Enough. I mean, what more goddamn…
Banner that says "TRUMP AND BONDI ARE PROTECTING PREDATORS" is flown above the federal courthouse in Florida.
Forest, wetlands, farms. Health care. Education. Public institutions. Stealing it all from Ontarians. #DougFordIsCorrupt

We did this to him. This government. This country. We condemned him to this torture because he dared to follow our own laws and seek refuge here. Utterly sick.
Last night, the Government of Canada assisted 11 Canadians, children travelling with their mothers, in leaving Gaza safely. As I discussed with Minister Sa’ar yesterday, approximately $300 million in Canadian humanitarian aid has been unable to reach those in need in Gaza and…
I've watched it twice now. Every time he says "look at me I'm a big boy" I start to laugh until I cry. It's just so damn good.
Early morning comedy .... This just made me LMAO 🤣 I don't know who he is but he needs his own show.
He’s visiting his own golf course at taxpayer expense.
President Trump is on the way to Turnberry, Scotland. This man never stops working for the American people!
