Under King Doug Ford, children in care are not alright. Mortality in his system has increased to a child every 3 days. Literally nothing available for those at the extremes of need. #onpoli www.thestar.com/news/investi...

An Ontario teen lived in this shed while under the watch of Children’s Aid. ‘Everybody knew, nobody cared’

The story of a teen who lived in a shed for months at a time while under the watch of Children’s Aid is a stark illustration of how Ontario’s health and child welfare systems are failing youth with co...

Trudeau’s Defiance of Trump Set the Stage for Carney

He saw through American designs and called out the president when few other nations dared to

Chrystia Freeland & Justin Trudeau had T willingly, happily sign CUSMA/ USMCA. Indeed T boasted about it at the time. Outsmarted him into signing a win/win when T prefers he wins/ you lose. (always wonder when T saw the photo of Melania looking adoringly at our PM) #cdnpoli #cdnpolitics

eimaj66@eimaj666.bsky.social · 4d ago

Yup. In 2018 he had no choice but to sign CUSMA, but he spent the remainder of his time in office quietly setting up Canada to resist the next attack, and then stepped out of the way and disappeared so Carney could shine, which was the right thing to do. Love him or hate him, he is a true Patriot.

Probably a good time to remind Ontario taxpayers that we paid a whole lot of money for this absolutely useless gesture. Oh, and the sign behind it cost us another $25K.

What the h*ll is going on! Ford's Trumpy corruption list is outrageous. Enacting laws to cover his malfeasances, pervert FOI, #democracy farce, 100% betrayal of good #onpol govt, good policy, blatant pay2play w/ #cdnmedia silent complicity consent. #cdnpoli Charges overdue. #Canada

More casinos = more homeless. We are left with the facts. Doug Ford is ill prepared, corrupt, and bereft of compassion & human decency. A killer. A social & democratic catastrophe. #onpoli

What's more important to you as a citizen? That King Dug Ford uses your money to convince you that he's Protecting Ontario, or that you and your loved ones have access to life saving care? Protect Ontario my ass. #onpoli www.thetrillium.ca/news/health/...

Ontario refused cancer patient's U.S. treatment and never told her its own health agency recommended funding it, FOI reveals

Sabrina Apitz-Grossman says her lawyers are demanding answers about why Ontario Health's recommendation to fund her treatment was not disclosed during court proceedings

thetrillium.ca

A complete betrayal of oath of office in several ways. Deliberately refuse to protect the welfare of citizens (but have a different standard for politicians) Imagine if #Canada had #cdnmedia that did #journalism .Ford, his fellow Cons betray #Ontario ,citizens in every way. #Corrupt #onpoli #cdnpoli

You know, a predictable outcome of Doug Ford's war on environmental regulation is, guess what. More cancer. This is his plan for you if you get unlucky. #onpoli www.thetrillium.ca/news/health/...

The St’át’imc Chiefs Council (SCC) is joining several other Nations in a legal challenge against Carney's use of Bill C-5 to approve the oil pipeline and port expansion (that'll likely murder the orcas btw). Who could have predicted this!!! Running roughshod over Indigenous rights = legal fights.

Guess it’s DuckDuckGo for everyone!

I was also going to suggest that. It’s as easy as installing Firefox, deleting Chrome, and setting the default search.

DuckDuckGo… is a choice. Just saying, there are some good alternatives that won’t extort you.

Privatizing airports benefits no one but rich investors. The NDP and the labour movement are united in the fight ahead.

Today, members of Unifor’s Aviation Council and aviation sector met with other unions and federal NDP leader Avi Lewis to discuss strategies, including creating a united plan, to fight airport privatization.

THIS! Rural Saskies had learned from Indigeneous groups about fire stewardship and burned 'x' many years when grasses dangerously accumulated. A careless butt thrown out a car window or lightning strike would call out neighbours who'd rather be harvesting/milking.

Most too young to know politicians used to resign when caught being unethical, never mind charged for corruption. Last I recall was BC's @bcndp.bsky.social Premier Mike Harcourt & he was 100% absolved! Leaders took responsibility then. Not now. Silence is consent. Callout sleaze. #cdnpoli

This is exactly why Postmedia should lose all public money. They aren't going anywhere. Destroying Canadian democracy is worth billions & billions to the American, and indeed Canadian, oligarchy. Losing a few million is the codb. bsky.app/profile/elad...

Thousands of OSAP applications came from one single IP address at a private career college called the Academy of Learning. The ministry knew, and Ottawa had flagged it too. This government did nothing, and now students are the ones stuck with the debt.

When you are genuinely in it in the name of public service, when you are not an adherent of the failed and self serving libertarian ideology, when you are not a corruption machine, when you are not a servant of the uber-monied, good things are possible. #onpoli bsky.app/profile/mari...

Marit Stiles@maritstilesndp.bsky.social · 6d ago

Manitoba's NDP kept their deficit to half of Ontario's, and they still hired thousands of health care workers and started a school lunch program. Doug Ford is running a record deficit and buying himself a private jet. That's the difference an NDP government makes.
