Ontario spends $1,109 less per person on healthcare than the Canadian average.

To Ford, that’s just a number. To frontline workers, it’s short-staffed shifts, burnout and patients left waiting.

In Guelph, I heard from paramedics, hospital staff and social services workers holding our care systems together with love and duct tape.

It’s time to care for the people who care for us.

If Pete Hegseth is giving out medals to the people who yell at him, that bastard owes me a shitload of medals.

[Marit Stiles @MaritStiles]

This is absurd. The Minister left the door wide open for fraud and can’t even tell us how much money went out the door. The Ford government is punishing the students and the next generation for this Minister’s sheer incompetence.

It’s time to fire this Minister and restore OSAP.

This Thanksgiving, I'm putting up a sign in my house for my MAGA relatives. It'll say... "Before entering, please understand that I don't give a flying fuck what Fox News told you this morning."😂

Ontario hospitals are short $2.7 billion. They're overcrowded and struggling. Think that's a lot? Just realize Ontario wasted $7.2 billion on:
-an Austrian spa
-new Science Centre
-early alcohol sales
-pre-election bribe cheques
We have the money. Don't let them fool you.

[Raghu Venugopal MD @raghu_venugopal]

Not enough ER doctors. Not enough ER nurses. Not enough ER clerical staff. Not enough ER radiology. Not enough ER beds. Not enough ER hallway spaces. As an Ontario province, as a nation - we are undecided that an unplanned medical emergency is a priority. Agree with you Kevin.

Scott Reid: "I have to say, I was forced to watch a lot of budget coverage and I thought Avi Lewis's interviews were bang on... he was the sharpest, most political critique of the budget by far."

Please note that some of that money Stellantis got is provincial. I don’t know how Doug Ford gets away scot free

[Dr. Abdul El-Sayed @AbdulElSayed]

Democrats will have a 56-seat majority in the US Senate. We need to use it. Pass Medicare for All.

[Tyler Watt 🇨🇦 @tylerwatt]

I have never seen hospitals this bad. Hospitals are laying off nurses and health care workers while emergency rooms are overflowing and patients are stuck in hallways.

Make it make sense.

Doug Ford has purposefully underfunded our hospitals for years, and now patients and frontline workers are paying the price.

We need MORE nurses, not fewer. #onpoli

Walmart and Kroger are quietly rolling out an internal store technology across America that could either modernize retail or bankrupt the middle-class family budget.

Starting across thousands of locations heading into 2027, traditional paper price tags are being ripped off grocery shelves and replaced with cloud-connected digital screens. Raise the price of bottled water by 20 percent the second the afternoon temperature hits 90 degrees. Surge the cost of ground beef, milk, and sandwich bread between 5 PM and 6 PM when exhausted commuters are rushing home from work. Drop prices at 10 AM on a Tuesday, then hike them right back up the minute the after-school crowd walks through the sliding doors.

Every price change happens wirelessly in seconds from a central corporate dashboard. No store employee has to touch a single shelf.

Walmart has already signed a massive deployment deal with VusionGroup to wire 2,300 American supercenters with EdgeSense digital shelf rails by 2027. Kroger is expanding its own Microsoft-backed system called EDGE across hundreds of supermarkets. Over 60 million digital price tags are already blinking on US grocery aisles right now.

This is not supply chain inflation. This is Uber-style surge pricing built directly into the shelves where Americans buy baby formula, eggs, and medicine.

Last week I sat down for coffee with a former retail pricing director who spent 14 years building supermarket margin algorithms before leaving the industry. What he shared over the table completely changed how I look at a grocery aisle.

"Retailers just turned static shelves into live stock tickers. The question is not whether grocery chains will use instant price changes, because they already spent billions installing the hardware. The question is how much extra money a family of four will lose every week simply because both parents work until 5 PM and cannot shop during off-peak hours."

Here is how the digital grocery pricing system actually works, how it tracks you in the aisle, and the exact phone settings and checkout playbook you need to beat it.

Russell Brand is going to prison because unlike America, in the UK, they give rapists prison time and they certainly don't fucking elect them President of the United States.

"I had no idea" is a common answer from the Premier of Ontario @fordnation when confronted with questions about the misconduct within his government.
