Then you get radio hosts in the mornings, not giving us the proper facts on a certain story.
Take the Delta plane accident in Toronto. Am800 was giving us the day before facts and not the current or up-to-date. They were saying 18 people were injured in the morning. At that time, it was 21 or 23.

What do you do when reputable media outlets say different things on the facts or twist the facts?
Facts are facts and shouldn't change, regardless.
We see it every day in local stories. CBC does a story, and then CTV does the same story. Different outcomes or different facts.
What is true anymore?

Who do we trust for news? I'm sorry, whoever you're listening/watching, the same story is different or twisted.
Yesterday it was 7%-you.
CTV/CKLW says 6%-today. Ok, 1%, but who is right?
What I'm trying to get at, how are the facts different from one news orangization to another?
Facts are facts.

7%. Can that be because of the U.S. dollar and not the tariffs or trade?
6,000 people work in the states, every day, according to Drew Dilkens.
Saying, reduced by 7% is one thing and a fact. There are lots of reasons why people are not going over and blaming on trades is just one theory or excuse.

What is in the application for housing and infrastructure or agreement? Same with zoning laws? Do we end up like Tecumseh this week and say no to this, or is there something we should be aware of?

Is this the same 2 out of 5 that don't know what bill to pay at the months end.
Is this same 2/5 that are using food banks (which is higher) or can't afford food?
Is the the same 2 out of 5 that can't afford to buy a house or rent an apartment and live on the streets?

How old are the people getting the measles? You can't blame people born before the year 1999 because social media didn't exist. We didn't rely on the internet as much as todays society.
Schools didn't care 40-60 years ago, like they do now if you were vaccinated.
Could it be education and/or staff?

Mark worries me because of his background.
Is he gonna be like Trump/Elon or team up with them?
Look at Doug Ford when first elected. He laid-off how many educational staff to try and balance the budget and pedaled back.
Is Mark going to say, "Why are we paying for this?" Axe this program!

What about the auto sector? They only have a week or 2 weeks is pushing it before things begin to shut down.
An auto part goes across the Detroit/Windsor border 8 times before assembled. With these tariffs in place, the auto industry will shut down pretty quickly.
Beginning of a recession.

How do you buy 100% Canadian made? Take Life Brand hands soap. It says imported for Shoppers? What does that mean?
Take a spaghetti sauce that is made in Canada, but the jar is made in the USA.
Great Value, most products are "prepared" in Canada.
You can't buy 100% Canadian. It's very rare.

It's not the potholes that are the issue. The roads are buckling. You travel on McHugh (WFCU center street) from Lauzon to Banwell, and it's a roller coaster. It looks like you're about to fall in sink holes. That whole stretch needs to be redone. I honestly don't think the city can patch it.

I'm going to tell the officials none of the above. Please submit my blank vote. It still counts as voted.
Ford seems like Trump and only cares about your wallet and economy.
Bonnie seems like Kamila, and she will take years for healthcare and affordable homes. She said this on Mondays debate.

Trump is doing the same thing as Pat King. Trump is shutting down the Canadian economy with tariffs.
I'm sorry, Trump is holding everything we get from the States, hostage.
What is the difference? Pat King did it first. Okay, the Can/USA border isn't shut down, but still.

We can't even get VIA Rail under control and the rail system has been around for how long? The are always late, or the train broke down, or they tell you that they don't know where the train is. Where can it go? Its on a track.
You go over seas, trains are on time. You are 5 seconds late, see ya.

The debate a waste of time.
Bonnie, Marit, and Mike pretty much agreed on the same issues and ganged up on Douggy.
Cut the mic's off. Everyone was yelling at once and can't understand what they were defending or saying. I don't think Douggy got a fair chance respond to anything.

Please relax.
Stop getting your knickers in a twist. We don't make any electric cars unless its commercial.
Its shortly after 1pm that we are supposed to hear something and still nothing at this time. We don't know if or when or in the future.

How many times has he cried wolf?
People don't remember Trump, the first term or 1.0 promised/threaten 25% tariffs for a year. What happened then after that first year. NOTHING!
What does Trump want now? Pay more for NATO
Trudeau will say, YES SIR, DONALD TRUMP SIR!
Like it or not, Trump is winning.

Most people eliminated landlines. If a number shows up on my cell phone, I don't answer it. The police even recommending doing this. How are they going about calling the 400 adult residence?

Talk about the election? Its only weeks away. What is the latest?
We don't know if these tariffs are going to exist. Trump has cried wolf for how long and how many times? Canada has to start patrolling the land borders. BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, etc. Its not the States responsibility.
