Why is every dollar of Ontario's new classroom supply fund locked into an American-owned chain, in the middle of a trade war, when Canadian retailers are right there?
The Premier must cancel the Staples deal today. And then he must recall the legislature so we can pass emergency tariff relief now.
@CraigBaird Thank you for the walk down memory lane. I was born and raised in South Porcupine, ON just down the road from Schumacher where Father Les Costello had his parish at St Alphonsus’ church. I was lucky to see the Flying Fathers on more than one occasion.
TWO STATEMENTS BY TRUMP 7 MINUTES APART:
Trump at 9:00: "Regime change was not our goal. We don't want that"
Trump at 9:07: "Regime change is what we want. It is needed"
These statements were made 7 minutes apart in the same speech
As of yesterday, Ontario is out of compliance with the Canada Health Act because Doug Ford's government missed the federal deadline to fund nurse practitioners.
Now Ontarians are being forced to pay out of pocket for primary care. 2.5 million people don't have a family doctor, and this Minister has no plan to fix it.
MESSAGE
I wholeheartedly endorse the powerful appeal for peace made by the Holy Father, Pope Leo, during his Palm Sunday Mass. His call for the laying down of arms and the renunciation of violence resonated profoundly with me, as it speaks to the very essence of what all major religions teach.
Indeed, whether we look to Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism or any of the world's great spiritual traditions, the message is fundamentally the same: love, compassion, tolerance, and self-discipline. Violence finds no true home in any of these teachings. History has shown us time and again that violence only begets more violence and is never a lasting foundation for peace.
An enduring resolution to conflict, including the ones we see in the Middle East or between Russia and Ukraine, must be rooted in dialogue, diplomacy and mutual respect — approached with the understanding that, at the deepest level, we are all brothers and sisters.
I urge for and pray that the violence and conflicts may soon come to an end.

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.
Jeremiah Jones served bravely at Vimy Ridge, was wounded and captured a machine gun and several Germans.
It took almost 100 years before he got the medal he deserved.
Dear Conservative idiots who want American-style healthcare in Canada:
If American celebrities can't afford it, neither can you

Viola Desmond's story was forgotten for years until her sister Wanda Robson brought it back to light with Graham Reynolds.
Today, Desmond's civil rights fight is known nationwide, and she is on our $10 bill.
This is her story.
