A suffering progressive Canadian in a conservative province. Do NOT judge me on my spelling (or grammar). I do have other talents, I just have to remember what they are... 🌻 💉8x 😷🖖

Sounds like Poilievre to me. All he does is spend tax payers money.

Doug Ford’s plan to privatize alcohol sales will cost Ontario taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. Now it’s forcing LCBO workers to go on strike. Workers say Ford is helping billionaires and big business siphon profits from healthcare, education and public services

Heather Mallick: "It is not clear why Americans would get rid of 1 king, roar about independence & democracy for 248 years, & then saddle themselves with another monarch."

I love Heather's humour, but man, this is a frightening read...😬

Climate change will reduce economic growth. But proactive adaptation measures can have major economy-wide benefits. For every $1 spent on adaptation measures today, $13-$15 will be returned in years ahead in direct and indirect benefits.

Funny how James Mousaly tried to warn the public that Doug Ford's nuclear power plant end of life extension was dangerous, considering Mousaly was a nuclear reactor engineer. Ford had him arrested, charged with treason, leaking plant vulnerabilities to terrorists, over Mousaly posting on Facebook

Doug Ford is scared of buildings over 50 years old, claiming the science centre building is unsafe to the public. Doug Ford is scared of experienced OPG Sunshine List Nuclear Reactor worker James Mousaly posting to Facebook that the Nuclear Power Plant end-of-life extension is dangerous and unsafe.

Biden worked too hard running the country and preparing for the debate without getting enough rest and was tired. Trump sits on his fat fascist ass most of the time. People need to stop reading the Media money narrative/fear mongering. They don't give a damn about whats happening to the country.

I would like to imagine every school building in Ontario that needed repairs ad maintenance were fenced off. That would be a welcomed change to make Ontario better. Not just every building in Doug Ford and Degasperis developer way

Poilievre and so many other political leaders, in and out of government, have been actively promoting the concept of “economic reconciliation” in an effort to win over Indigenous leaders. Jody Wilson Raybould and her father say the same thing I detected PP as part of a fake indigenous network

They can pound it all they want. Biden isn't withdrawing from the race and he shouldn't. He outraised Trump in donations by millions the day of and after the debate. The grassroots donors have spoken.
