@jeremycorbyn A very timely lesson for elections coming up in Canada (2025) and in Ontario ( 2026). The Liberals, @JustinTrudeau @BonnieCrombie , The New Democrats @theJagmeetSingh @MaritStiles and the Greens @MikeSchreiner need to take heed and start talking together. Now, not later. Now.

@Beth_Levy66 The best reason to believe in a heaven is that your fur buddies will be waiting to welcome you and show you around the place. Rosie is waiting, for many years from today.

Solve the housing crisis in 3 simple steps*

1. Revise zoning & land use codes to allow a flood of new supply in the places where it’s most needed
2. support lowest income groups with vouchers
3. reclassify tax treatment of real estate to decommodify & encourage local ownership

Rates of loneliness and unhappiness are on the rise in the United States, but our European counterparts don't seem to be having the same problem. Why? It may be because of the way our built environment isolates us.

Last week, Pierre Poilievre signalled that he will override human rights protected by the Charter.

This week his caucus is saying women shouldn’t have the right to choose.

Women’s rights are human rights. They deserve protection.

I mean what can you possibly say?
2.2 million Ontarians without a family physician.
Rural ERs closing every damned day.
Wait times for some specialties routinely over 18 months
Aging physician workforce retiring in droves.
And the Ontario government isn't concerned.

“If a doctor lies, they are struck off. If a lawyer lies, they are disbarred. And yet we seem to have tolerated a democratic culture where politicians can lie with impunity. Well, that's got to stop.” Can you imagine if Canada followed Wales’ lead? https://t.co/99G3W5zvub

Winnipeg’s Free Press conservative columnist Tom Brodbeck gets it. Poilievre is dangerous, as he revealed in his speech earlier this week.
