I can't believe the historic times we are living in. Open your eyes to what is actually happening in the US.

Doug Ford's campaign has been him going to the US twice to meet with people who agree with him and trying to convince me he made a difference. Meanwhile I have zero prospects of affording a place to live.

There is comfort in the governor's underlying theme of equality. I've linked a video of her exchange with a very obnoxious president which was the genesis of her statement. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Doug Ford refuses to double ODSP/OW. Yet, his government also cut employment programs for disabled people. Last year, he also defunded a 'peer worker' training program I co-facilitated for homeless people on OW. Ford has abandoned disabled and homeless Ontarians. www.thetrillium.ca/news/the-tri...

Beyond the fact that Police Associations and Police Unions should remain apolitical, one has to consider the optics of actively endorsing someone who is under criminal investigation.

"Poor weather conditions" is a lame excuse this many days after a snowfall. The TTC's inability to get trains out of their yards has more to do with poor management and maintenance than anything else at this point.

One of my absolute fave Canadian companies is Peace By Chocolate, founded by Syrian refugees. If you're lookin' for a place to buy top-notch made-in-Canada chocolates, look no further. peacebychocolate.ca

On this Flag of Canada Day I remind you: Walmart does not sell flags in their stores (in the US an assortment of US flags are available in every store) Canadian Tire on the other hand keeps flags in stock. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

This is true. Ford has been brutal on housing; farcical on planning and infrastructure; skeevy on corruption; absent on health care and education. He's dragging the province backwards, and the effects will be felt for generations.

Doug Ford destroyed my favourite and the most stunning Urban public park , Ontario Place , cut down 800 mature trees and broke his own environmental laws .. wrote new ones to avoid accountability and charged tax payers 2.3 billion for it . Vote Feb 27th Ontario . Vote Doug Ford out 👢

Yo fat asses ordering McDonald's online: your fat ass no longer takes priority over my fat ass which actually picks up his order in person. I made that quite clear to the employee on duty who was packing an order for a non present delivery guy.

If you see something on Amazon that offends you, don't be the guy to post about it for all to see. Illogical. Just complain to them and/or stop shopping there. Also, if you're still dealing with Amazon after they pulled out of Quebec to avoid a union, give your head a shake.

Almost 20 years ago, a doctor on TV was asked, "Isn't 12 a little early for a kid to be deciding to transition?" And her response was, "It's old enough for them to decide that it's not worth living anymore if they can't." That was the only argument I ever needed to hear about gender affirming care.

Today marks 8 years since the terrorist attack on the Quebec City Mosque. This horrific act of hatred left 6 people dead and 19 injured. Today we send love to the survivors and loved ones of the victims. Together, we must stand united in the fight against hate - Islamophobia has no place.

Good thing Ford called an election instead of just fulfilling his current mandate.

I'm very much an anyone-but-Ford supporter right now. The challenge is, there are three better options.
