@garonnevik Same!! I’m honestly just done talking about politics with ppl because I’m always on the “other side”.

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@JasminLaine_ I voted for the party who balanced budgets - like I had to (usually PC). Don’t waste my $$. After Trudeau threw everyone like me under the bus during lockdowns (valid mask exemption due to trauma), I will never vote liberal again. Ever.

@spicyliltoaster This was the conclusion we reached. It’s not just cost of daycare—second vehicle, professional wardrobe, food costs increased bec you’re buying prepared/precooked, etc. etc. Was no point in me working outside the home esp when kiddos were young.

@JonFlynnREstats I know Thunder Bay is a bit backwater, but the avg days to sell here is 14 with prices for single family homes up 11% from last year. Why is this city so different?

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@Martyupnorth_2 I’ve wondered if Thunder Bay would be. Pinch point for east-west trucking and travel at one single bridge in Nipigon, ON. The Port here is a major link in Western Canada supply chain - grain, potash. Take TBay and you cut the country in half.

@JonSThompson Cleaned two gutters on my way to the election station - sidewalks were flooded.

@paolini Ya. Was using google docs to co-write a trilogy. Organized folders into chapters. Several random files just went missing one day. Never got them back. 🫤 Lesson learned.

@KristenLambTX I’ve never been more glad you forced me to learn and join X now that I’m banned from FB for using a banned word - I didn’t know was banned 🫤

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@HotHolyHumorous @facebook What’s extra frustrating is I can’t create a new profile. Tried with a new email on a device I’ve never used Facebook on - that one got taken down for “account integrity” issues. 🙄 Thank goodness for email lists.

@AreOhEssEyeEe I’ve used Brule Creek flour in NW Ontario.

@petermansbridge @CanadaTalks167 Littlest Hobo, Mr. Dressup, Today’s Special, The Raccoons, Friendly Giant were formative. Vignettes like Log Drivers Waltz. Watched Tommy Hunter from the dinner table at the farm with my grandfather. Nothing Too Good For A Cowboy - cancelled too soon.

@YakkStack Voices like yours kept me going. Mask exemption ignored so was in forced isolation for 2+yrs. Did my own research. Only holdout in my family. Local MOH explained publicly abt weaponizing behavioural psych Feb2020 to gain compliance. Info was there for anyone listening.

@ronmortgageguy @HanifBayat Now look at Thunder Bay 😳

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@JesterWootton A writer and a ‘76 baby. Didn’t grow up in the church, came to faith as a late teen. How about something like - you saw damage being done and did your best to fix it - here’s how we picked up the torch — and there’s still more work to do.

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@KristenLambTX @MAGAMichelleS69 Now I need to read these books for myself (before we can’t get them anymore in Canada).

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@JonSThompson Great summary thread.

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@ronmortgageguy We just bought in TBay - moving from London - for work. Prices never really dropped up north. Inventory still low, so multiple offers on almost every decent house.

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@MikePMoffatt Interested to see if the north benefits from this population shift at all (Sudbury, SSM, Thunder Bay)

[Lisa Hall-Wilson @LisaHallWilson]

@ZerotheSkepic @TorontoStar But… there are already laws that - if violated - will get you arrested. I don’t see your point.
