@AndrewCSelman @gcrawfordHamOnt It's not about having compassion or not, it's about acknowledging that these people have nowhere to go and simply mandating that they leave public spaces does nothing to address this.

@gcrawfordHamOnt Gotta look on the bright side...it may get him off council!

JD Danko is now dressing up as a Liberal, even though Halloween is months away.

What the government can’t afford:

❌Lifting children out of poverty
❌Disability benefits
❌Compensation for WASPI women
❌Winter fuel allowance

What the government can afford: an extra £13.4 billion on the military.

Never any money for the poor. Always enough money for war.

This is how developers do it. They get road blocked by the community. Then decide to put forward their own candidate to push through changes in their own interest.

@shaw_sandy is the candidate of choice in Hamilton West Ancaster Dundas to beat Conservative donor candidates.

What this article really tells us is the big budget talking point for so called “fiscal conservatives” is trying to trim $8,333 from a $2.8b budget. It’s a headline because it’s a cheap attack on the arts. And apparently that’s worth reporting. #HamOnt https://t.co/qRo5ty5jDr

@JohnPaulDanko Well maybe you could learn from this and start using your elected office to punch 'up' instead of 'down' all the time.

[Chris Slye @Slye4Hamilton]

@fordnation @LIUNA You literally stopped working to run an early and unnecessary election.

[Chris Slye @Slye4Hamilton]

@ColinDMello Well she is a conservative so I don't see why she wouldn't be able to get along.

[Chris Slye @Slye4Hamilton]

@fordnation And what did you do? Walked out of your job for a month when we needed leadership the most.

[Independent Jewish Voices @IndJewishVoices]

US-based Zionist groups like the ADL are saying it was just an awkward gesture, while their counterparts in Canada - B’nai Brith, CIJA, FSWC - have said nothing.

These groups don't actually care about fighting antisemitism. They care about protecting Israel.

Holy shit! Canadian MP Charlie Angus just DESTROYED Trump:

“Donald Trump, you’re a disgrace as a human being. You’re a convicted felon, a pervert, and you treat your allies with absolute disdain while you kiss up to Putin.”

[John Ralston Saul @JohnRalstonSaul]

This is what Canadian leadership sounds like.

[Margaret Shkimba @menrvasofia]

It looks like this councillor has lost his way.

After being told how it works, he continues to sow confusion.

Maybe if they include beer in the vending machines he’ll see the light?

[Chris Slye @Slye4Hamilton]

JP's small vocal minority of concerns is somehow not ideological vs. those with opposing views (and a heap of evidence on their side) are 'U.S Style' agitators.

[John-Paul Danko @JohnPaulDanko]

It is also disappointing to see a member of the @HamiltonPolice Board dismiss #HamOnt community, resident & parent concerns as 'anecdotal'.

Police Board members are appointed to represent the interests of the community - not their own personal ideologies.

[Chris Slye @Slye4Hamilton]

It is so fundamentally conservative to immediately jump to policing as a solution and ignore the fact that our core institutions (in this case education) are so underfunded they cannot give the help that every child needs.

[John-Paul Danko @JohnPaulDanko]

The @HWDSB
@HamiltonPolice liason program was suspended due to small but vocal US style organized anti-police protests. It was always intended to be replaced.

With growing youth violence & gun crime, its long past time to welcome police back into schools. https://t.co/l6rkUo5SQn

It seems to be really hard for some people to understand that a bike takes up less space on a road than a car.

“Who is paying to review all the data at the provincial level that they are going to ask for? We’re going to have to have a whole other department. For a government that doesn’t like red tape and bureaucracy, we’ve just created a whole bunch” https://t.co/J6Cf0q2tZx
