Hey #Ontario, it's your friendly reminder to GET OUT AND VOTE in the provincial election. The polling looks pretty grim unless you're into privatized healthcare, fewer teachers, weakened climate goals, and fewer long-term care beds. ontariosnightmare.org

Doug Ford has failed Ontarians. He increased funding to for-profit clinics by more than 200%. Campaigning on a promise to end hallway medicine in 2018, he set a new record with an average of 2,000 patients per day who have to wait on stretchers for a room. #cdnpoli #onpoli

Hey Ontario, how many more reasons do you need to toss this government? "When you look at public expenditures per capita, Ontario ranks at the bottom of all 10 provinces, lower than the so-called ‘have not’ provinces." #onpoli #onelxn www.readthemaple.com/doug-fords-g...

"Last night, Trump horrified even his own advisors by saying that the United States would take over Gaza and turn it into a resort area...The New York Times reported today that Trump’s team 'had not done even the most basic planning to examine the feasibility of the idea' when Trump blurted it out.“
