@JoyceCarolOates General rule, which works most of the time, is that if the main stem is fuzzy, it's a weed; and if the main stem is smooth , it's not.

LISTEN UP ONTARIO:
Something big is happening in Ontario, and almost no one is talking about it.
Premier Ford has quietly passed a law that opens the door to water privatization across Ontario - and he's hoping you won't notice.

The Water and Wastewater Public
Corporations Act lets the government seize your local water system and hand it over to a for-profit corporation without your consent.
History is clear: when for-profit corporations control our water systems, the results are disastrous:

Bigger bills!
Bad service!
Dirty water!

Water is a human right not a commodity. It's not too late to stop this.
& Tell Premier Ford our water is NOT for sale. Take action now!

So let me get this straight…
Doug Ford can take a 102-day summer break with full pay, taxpayer-funded pensions, benefits, travel budgets, and perks while classrooms are overcrowded, hospitals are understaffed, ERs are closing, and families are struggling to survive?
Teachers are being told there’s “not enough money” for smaller class sizes, educational assistants, special education supports, or properly funded public schools.
Healthcare workers are burning out.
Parents can’t find family doctors.
Students are falling through the cracks.
But Queen’s Park gets a 3+ month vacation?
How is this acceptable?
And before anyone says politicians still “work behind the scenes,” most Ontarians don’t get 102 days off with six-figure salaries and guaranteed pensions while the systems WE pay for collapse around us.
Public education and healthcare are not luxuries. They are the backbone of a functioning society.
Maybe if politicians had to live in overcrowded classrooms, wait 14 hours in ERs, or watch children lose supports because there aren’t enough EAs, they’d stop treating public services like a budget line to cut while protecting their own comfort.
Ontario deserves better than a government that always seems to find money for itself while telling everyone else to lower their expectations.

@TinaYazdani Also totally screwed over students and everyone needing their skills

[Rob Cerjanec @RobCerjanec]

Doug Ford and his government are cowards.

They just announced the Ontario Legislature won’t be coming back until the end of October.

They’re afraid to face basic questions about their actions and are running away from their scandals and wasteful spending.

It’s time for change in Ontario.

recalling English graduate student seminars of the late 20th century in which "literary theory" was the rage, & within a decade or two most of these "literary theorists" were totally out of fashion & near-forgotten.
imagine spending months or years of your life reading "literary theory" instead of what is called primary sources: literature itself.

🇨🇦ONTARIO: "But here's the thing, I can not find any evidence that any of the many lobbyists working on behalf of Nieuport in Toronto and Ottawa have ever disclosed that ownership and control. And that appears to violate both Ontario and federal lobbying laws."
