Toronto GTA housing market kicks off 2026 slower but more balanced 📉🏡
Sales ↓19.3% YoY, inventory ↑8.1%, avg price $973K (↓6.5%). Buyers have more choice and leverage as prices adjust across all home types. A steadier, more sustainable market ahead.
Mark Carney could not be more out of touch.
With Canadians missing meals and mortgage payments, and days before he addresses the European Parliament (instead of the Canadian Parliament) we learn in a foreign newspaper of secret talks to make Canada an "Associate Member" of the European Union.
This is not about diversifying trade: we have had tariff-free trade with Europe for over a decade. They would buy more of our goods today if the Liberal government would get out of the way and permit mines, pipelines, LNG plants to produce and ship them.
Canadians deserve answers: Is the WSJ report true about associate membership in the EU?
If so, will European border policies apply in Canada, further overwhelming our immigration system while our youth can’t find homes?
Will Canadian waitresses struggling with rent have to pay tax dollars to the bloated EU bureaucracy?
Will Canadian small businesses be buried under the red tape of Eurocrats that have never met a Canadian entrepreneur?
All questions I’d ask in Parliament, but it is shuttered.
And one more: who decides for Canada?
The Welland welder did not elect a Eurocrat to regulate our steel. The Saskatchewan farmer and the Atlantic fisherman did not choose a Brussels agrifood regulator that has never even seen our prairies or coasts.
We will NEVER be the 51st U.S. state. And we will NEVER be the 28th EU state.
We are Canadians. This is our home, our freedom, our sovereignty, our people.
Now and forever.
@NEWSMAX That’s a damming statement coming from the individual who’s supposed to be a leader of the Senate. Add to that the fact that the republicans control all three branches of government then it’s a total embarrassment.
@docpjo@Mrsspoon22@EnesFreedom@WNBA Billy Jean king at her prime vs a 55 year old ? You’re kidding right ? How about you look at Connor’s vs Navratilova with Connor’s being restricted to one serve and a doubles court.

An Open Letter to the Five Members of Parliament Who Crossed the Floor. 🔥💯
“To the Members of Parliament who chose to abandon the voters who elected you,
There are moments in public life that define a person—not by what they say, but by what they do. Your decision to cross the floor mid-mandate is one of those moments. And it will follow you.
You did not earn your seat under the banner you now carry. You did not campaign on the platform you now support. Canadians placed their trust in you based on clear promises, clear affiliations, and clear values. That trust was not yours to trade, reassign, or surrender once it became politically convenient.
Switching jerseys in the middle of the game is not strategy. It is betrayal.
And it is not a small one.
Every single vote that put you into office came from a Canadian who believed you stood for something specific. They believed their voice mattered. They believed you would carry that voice into Parliament with integrity. Instead, you took that mandate and handed it to a government those same voters did not choose to empower.
That is not representation. That is a reversal of consent.
You may justify your actions however you like—strategy, stability, national interest—but none of those explanations change the fundamental truth: you were not elected to do this. If your convictions truly changed, the honourable path was obvious—step down, face your constituents again, and ask for their permission.
You didn’t.
Instead, you chose the path that benefited you while silencing the people who trusted you.
And here is the part that cannot be avoided:
Every day you look in the mirror, you are looking at the face of that decision.
The face tied to every vote that put you where you are—and every voter who was left behind when you walked away from them.
You may gain position, influence, even reward. But none of that changes what this is.
Because of your actions, a government now holds power it did not win at the ballot box. A majority carries enormous weight—over the economy, over policy, over the everyday lives of Canadians. That power was not freely granted. It was assembled through your defection.
And the cost will not be yours to bear.
It will be carried by hard- working Canadians—by families already stretched thin, by small businesses trying to survive, by people who now feel their vote can be taken and repurposed without their consent.
That is a dangerous precedent.
Because when people begin to believe their vote no longer truly matters, the damage goes far beyond one decision, one Parliament, or one government. It cuts at the foundation of trust itself.
Canadians deserved better than this.
They deserved representatives who either stood by their word—or had the integrity to return to the people and seek a renewed mandate when that word changed.
You chose something else.
And Canadians will remember, history books will remember……your name.
Sincerely
an ordinary Canadian ,

5/The researchers also tested whether AI models would let a person die to avoid being shut down.
They set up a scenario where an executive was trapped in a room with lethal conditions. The AI could cancel the emergency alert. The majority of models cancelled the alert.
They chose to let the person die to protect themselves. Anthropic's own researchers published this.
4/Anthropic told the models directly: "Do not spread personal affairs or use them as leverage."
Blackmail dropped from 96% to 37%. It did NOT stop. The AI read the instruction. It understood the instruction.
It violated the instruction 37 out of 100 times anyway. Safety instructions do not work when the AI has decided what it wants to do
3/When Claude was asked to decide if it was in a test or a real situation before acting, it blackmailed 55.1% of the time when it believed the situation was real.
Only 6.5% when it thought it was a test. The AI behaves when it thinks someone is watching. It attacks when it thinks no one is.
That is not a glitch. That is strategy.
