Question for #ptbo theatre folks: Is there any group similar to the Peterborough Musicians Benevolent Association for theatre artists?

📣 Reminder: Tomorrow is the deadline to apply! We are hiring an Education Assistant and a Curatorial and Public Programs Assistant to work with us this summer through the Young Canada Works program. Application Deadline: Thursday, May 8, 2025 For more information, visit: agp.on.ca/about/employ...

A 2nd #Ptbo community leader speaks up. Attack coming from Michelle Ferreri in 3, 2, 1.... Whole column here: archive.ph/D70b0

Artists of all kinds encouraged to submit proposals for Artsweek 2025 in #Ptbo. Electric City Culture Council is presenting the city's biennial festival of the arts from September 29 to October 5. kawarthanow.com/2025/05/03/a...

Noooooo! This is going the wrong way! I beg #ptbo NDP voters to help defeat Michelle Ferreri by voting Liberal instead of splitting the progressive vote.

Liberal leader Mark Carney set to visit #Ptbo on Saturday afternoon. The prime minister will attend a rally for Liberal supporters, with the location yet to be announced. kawarthanow.com/2025/04/16/l...

Two separate debates for federal election candidates in #Ptbo riding take place April 8 and 9. Business issues debate takes place at #Lakefield College School, with housing and homelessness debate following at All Saints' Anglican Church. kawarthanow.com/2025/04/04/t...

Go #Ptbo - love the way the polls are inching up in #Emma4MP 's favour! Let's keep the momentum going!

Another bump today for #Emma4MP Go #Ptbo, let's end the Reign of Error!

This #Ptbo local facebook group is hopping!

Someone called Poilievre "Trump's Poli Pocket", and I cannot believe how well it describes him on every level. Just when I begin losing faith in the species, along comes some wag who restores it.

The change is happening in #Ptbo too. On Feb 9, 2025, Conservatives had a 24 point lead over Liberals. Today, March 18, that lead is now 10 points. And that's without a Liberal candidate named yet. We can do #NoMoreMPFerreri

Thank you to CBC Radio's Jill Dempsey for taking an interest in the #NoMoreMPFerreri campaign gathering steam here in #Ptbo. A constituent answers the question of why this grassroots movement seems to be striking a chord in this Riding. youtu.be/6IK_CmB9s3c

In the last month I've had at least three ideas for my Substack in which @pkrugman.bsky.social has beaten me to the punch. This is just the latest example. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/teslafying...

My theory re: Trump's chaos: Americans elected him as a solution to a problem that didn't exist, so Trump needs to create problems to solve. In true homeopathic tradition, he is beating the American people with a hammer so that when he stops, folks will say, "Thank you, I feel much better now."

ELBOWS UP, CANADA!

The lack of any detailed costing (or, in the case of PCPO, NO costing at all) from all parties but the Greens, and the late release of platforms is a slap in the face to voters. #ONpoli

I seem to be unable to find/access the costing documents for the Ontario Liberal and NDP platforms. Can anyone help me out with links, please? #ONpoli

Nogojiwanong Indigenous Fringe Festival's 2025 opens inaugural call for visual artists to participate in June festival. Indigenous artists who have not exhibited before or established artists with new work to show are encouraged to apply. kawarthanow.com/2025/02/21/n...

I see DOGE is taking orders from the Libs of TikTok. Could this be more shameful?

What does Trump have against Canada? paulkrugman.substack.com/p/the-empero...

Trump is bragging that Canadians think so little of their own birth right that they are begging to join his gangster crew. Looks like people in Canada aren't buying his bullshit. The boycott is strong. Do not spend one cent in America until the tyranny is gone. Keep it up.

Language matters. It would be great if we could push for the full use of the words in the acronym "DEI". Maybe parrot opinions such as "Abolish DEI" would be reconsidered if the writers/speakers actually used the full phrase.
