Canadian politician Chrystia Freeland, Canada's former deputy prime minister and finance minister, was confronted during an event in Toronto

"Thousands murdered because of you. How many children have you orphaned? You monster. You Zionist Nazi dog"

"What do you have to say for yourself, you animal? Get out. You disgusting animal. Get out. You're a fucking Nazi, You're the butcher of Gaza"

"You animal. And you go around with a book deal? You're making money off of genocide?"

Governor Newsom has balanced California's deficit.
Mayor Mamdani has balanced NYC's

Doug Ford has increased Ontario's deficit to $13.8 Billion

Making the rich richer and the poor poorer fails everyone

This is the most profound piece I have ever written. Ahead of the 2026 FIFA Men's World Cup, Bosnia and Herzegovina fans explain why football is important to them.
Their words make you rethink identity, belonging, and sport. #BiH @CBCOlympics @cbcsports

Take a note of who’s advertising during this Eurovision debacle. And boycott the products. Hit them in the spreadsheet.

Just got wind that @fordnation's supervisor is cutting all but two outdoor beloved TDSB education centres. In addition to adult education centres and school crisis counseling.

If they are stripping schools and hospitals to the bone, where the hell is all our money? #onpoli

#BREAKING: Less than 1% of OSAP money was misused over the last two years.

Doug Ford scapegoated students so he could gut OSAP.

1. Release your cell phone records

2. Release the receipts for your "Gravy Plane"

3. Release your minister mandate letters...all of them. What have you asked @PaulCalandra to do to public education?

This is what "The People" want, not more excuses!

#onpoli #onted

[Tyler Watt 🇨🇦 @tylerwatt]

Doug Ford lectured students about “misusing taxpayer money” to justify gutting OSAP grants. Now we know the truth: less than 1% of cases were flagged as ineligible, and not a single case was referred to police.

The hypocrisy is unbelievable. This is the same Premier who cried about students allegedly buying cologne while spending $29 million of taxpayer money on a luxury jet.

Students trying to afford school were never the problem. This government’s priorities are. #onpoli

How is Ford still our premier? #GeneralStrikeON

[Bev 🇨🇦 @Garnet_2203]

In my entire voting life, I’ve never seen a premier attack, defund, diminish, and disrespect public education the way Doug Ford has.

Teachers, educational assistants, education workers, nurses, and health care staff have been pushed to the brink for years understaffed, underfunded, and blamed for a system his government has neglected.

At the same time, I’ve never seen a premier elevate policing onto such a political pedestal while public education and public health care crumble around us.

The message is loud and clear: some public servants are celebrated endlessly, while others professions dominated by women are expected to quietly absorb the cuts, burnout, and disrespect.

Ontario deserves a government that values education and health care as much as photo ops and tough-on-crime politics. Doug Ford needs to go.

No @MarkJCarney , it’s not time to build these water guzzling tanks ; it’s time to take care of Canadians who don’t have clean drinking water despite the natural abundance. Stop abusing Canada’s amazing resources, that’s not why we voted you in!

It’s time to build.

Today is ME/CFS Awareness Day.

I am a very severe ME/CFS patient. I have not left my mattress in around 9 years, and I have been sick much longer.

I cannot have visitors. I cannot watch TV. I can speak only very little with my caregivers. I can only read a few pages per day, sometimes less. I live mostly in darkness, in constant pain and physical discomfort.

There has not been a single day in the last 10 years that was not “ME/CFS Awareness Day” for me.

For millions of patients, this disease is not a campaign, a hashtag, or a yearly reminder. It is total life destruction, every single day.

What we need is not symbolic awareness alone. We need serious research, clinical infrastructure, political recognition, urgency, and your help.

[Ross 🏳️‍🌈🇨🇦 @ggrmcd]

Fuck off you POS. You froze our wages for years and spenT millions of taxpayer dollars fighting against us in court. You underfund hospitals we have to work short staffed and burn out. You are a useless fucking POS. RESIGN ASSHOLE

[Bev 🇨🇦 @Garnet_2203]

Doug Ford didn’t “fix” Ontario healthcare. He systematically underfunded it, overwhelmed it, and pushed it toward collapse while pretending everything was under control.

ER wait times are exploding. Hospitals are running deficits. Nurses and healthcare workers are burnt out and leaving in droves. Patients are suffering.

This is what happens when a government treats public healthcare like a business expense instead of a public service. Doug Ford needs to go.

Doug Ford’s priority is scams and wasting your money. Not jobs.

In April, Ontario youth unemployment hit 17.7%, the worst in Canada

A mother looking at her entire family, all of whom were martyred.
All I want is for you to understand the depth of what she was feeling in that moment, as she sat there silently, staring at them wrapped in shrouds before her.
