Last year @FordNation spent a record $112 MILLION on government ads.
TAXPAYER $ that could have bought -
🏥 5 million hours of HOME CARE
🧲 37 brand new MRI SCANNERS
🏠 HOUSING for 3,600+ homeless Ontarians for a YEAR
This makes my blood boil

Scoop from @TinaYazdani. Angus Reid has sent a legal letter to Doug Ford & wants the “public record corrected” after Ford called Angus Reid poll fake after showing Ford's approval rating at 21%, an eight-year low, & least popular Premier in Canada.
🧵 🇺🇦 Zelensky at the European Council: "Ukraine merits EU membership because it has paid more than any other European country for its right to be free, independent, and European."
"Please do not forget that this right is not only for Ukraine. It is also the right of other nations to be independent from Russia."
"The most important such step could be a fast-track path for Ukraine to join the EU."
The same day: the first accession cluster opened Monday. Five more to go.
$1 billion in new PURL contributions - the largest single UDCG announcement in the program's history - from Norway, the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, Luxembourg, Lithuania, Latvia, Iceland, and Australia.
$500 million for long-range artillery - Czech initiative. Some arriving this month.
$1 billion for Ukrainian drone and missile production - UK, Netherlands, Norway.
The country asking for a fast-track EU membership raised over $2.5 billion in military commitments in a single day at the Defence Contact Group. 🧵⬇️

Bill C-30 delivers practical support for Canadians while strengthening the economy for the road ahead.
After 25 hours of Conservative obstruction, the choice is clear: delay or deliver.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is as clear a war of evil versus good that has ever occurred in human history.
Russia bombs churches that sustain the cultural life of the Ukrainian nation.
Ukraine bombs oil refineries that sustain the russian war machine.
Every single MAGA should be strapped into a chair with eyes pinned open, like Malcolm McDowell in A Clockwork Orange, while the Memorandum of Understanding plays on a big screen in front of them, narrated, with captions, while someone stands over them and lubricates their eyes.
Bruce Springsteen, U2's Bono and the Edge, and Stevie Wonder are among the stacked lineup for the Obama Presidential Center’s grand opening ceremony. More:

Pressure on Toronto Liberal MP’s may be slowing momentum for jets at island airport. No time to let up. They can abandon Ford and stop it. They must.

“Why can’t the PM show up to our circus more often so we can arrogantly bloviate and parade like clowns in order to try to make him look bad in social media clips and curated memes?? Waaaahhh!”
So the ballroom is a fiasco, the reflecting pool is a fiasco, the Iran war is a fiasco—the Trump administration is a fiasco.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
My @TorontoStar column: To call the island airport expansion idea "half-baked" is an insult to baked goods. There are scant details and few credible projections.
Toronto is in an absurd situation — debating a notion instead of a plan. That won't fly.

Australian World Cup fans were caught chanting:
“Aussie boys are on a bender, Donald Trump is a sex offender.”
The tournament is barely underway and the chants are already in midseason form. 💀
The @OntarioNDP is calling on Doug Ford and Mark Carney to release the Toronto Port Authority's secret Billy Bishop Airport plan.
The public deserves to know exactly what they're being "consulted" about.
