The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
Well, New Leaf Liberals is now out there.
The message behind this group, at least in my estimation, is that in order to get rid of Doug, we have to get rid of Bonnie.
The Ontario Liberal Party is floundering while the PCs burn the province around us.
I think the NDP is pissed they lost party status to the Liberals and, instead of reflecting on why, they have decided to punish all of us with their fucking stupidity in response.

Me: "Our information environment is completely manipulated, and often people don't realize the degree to which that is the case."
We're living through a knowledge crisis!
“Despite what Danielle Smith would have you believe, just 1 in 3 Albertans would vote yes in a referendum on separating from Canada. A large majority of Canadians in every province DO NOT want to break up our country. Any media claiming otherwise is lying.”https://t.co/DU1w8rhD4r
At, the very least, Smith is playing a dangerous game, threatening the destruction of one of the most successful countries the world has ever know to save her own political skin. But, this actually feels worse. I’m worried we Albertans are the targets of a foreign-funded psyop.
NEW -- Trump's White House is hiding the vast majority of the transcripts of his remarks.
Why? The White House won't say...
But maybe reading the following might offer a clue:

Future Narrator: Hitler never gave a speech at the Eiffel Tower but the U.S. media continued to ignore Trump's increasing mental decline even as he became more untethered from reality.
Danielle Smith doesn’t care about a united Canada, and it shows whenever she speaks to the American far-right, which is unfortunately often. She’s supposed to represent the people of Alberta — Canadian citizens — not the interests of the Trump Organization.https://t.co/DU1w8rhD4r
Analysis: Less than 200 days into his second term, U.S. President Donald Trump is setting a new presidential standard in one area: grifting. https://t.co/5nQGrChKqL
