Homelessness is a humanitarian crisis, with an average annual growth of 28% since 2020. We need the province to make it a healthcare priority. While the govt now has *37* cabinet ministers, none has the job of focusing on this crisis. #OnPoli #NationalHousingDay

Hey Ontario, this is what Doug Ford is doing! That 4billion for covid? Poof, health transfers, poof! Gone into the black hole of “general revenue”… whole our healthcare crumbles. We MUST vote these corrupt people out!!!

Non-Natives love Lakotaman1 because he validates them and the stereotypes and misconceptions that they have of Native people.....he doesn't challenge them and he feeds them ally cookies when they've done less than the bare minimum. www.dailydot.com/irl/lakotama...

Ontario...let me give you a heads up here. I live in a remote rural wilderness area and I already have starlink. (For YEARS!) No 100 million government deal needed. What Fordnation is doing..is rigging an upcoming election with your hard earned tax dollars. Get rid of this corrupt fool.

I really joined Bluesky to talk about books..but recent events have created in me a desire to work towards ensuring this place (gestures towards blue planet we all share!) does not become "The Bad Place" I don't entirely know what to do to stop it, but I plan to at least try

📚♥️ My tickets are booked for this year's Lakefield Literary Festival...I'm looking forward to seeing Drew Haden Taylor there! It all takes place July 19th and 20th. The weekend before that is Haliburton County's Bookapalooza. I have tickets to see Linwood Barclay discuss his new novel. Lucky me!

💙📚 About to start Wavewalker, A Memoir of Breaking Free by Suzanne Heywood. It's my next local bookclub book, and it's a much different read for me, lately I've been reading a lot of fantasy or sci-fi. I know nothing about this book, but willing to try a change of pace.

A big thank you to Chuck Wendig, whose books I love, for posting about Kevin Hearne, I'm 2/3 the way through the Seven Kennings Trilogy. The books are excellent, I'm very much looking forward to reading the last book. Also if you haven't read Black River Orchard you absolutely should, great book!
