The Carney government just dropped a $3.2 billion food security strategy and it’s worth understanding what it actually does.

Right now, only 11 cents of every dollar you spend on groceries reaches the farmer who grew it. Five companies control 80% of the grocery market. And Canada exports billions in agricultural products while turning around and importing processed versions of the same food from the US at a markup.

This plan attacks that problem structurally. $1 billion goes toward food terminals and distribution hubs so independent grocers can buy directly from Canadian farmers, cutting out the middleman. The Competition Bureau gets a funding boost to go after the property control tricks big grocers use to block competitors from moving in nearby. And Farm Credit Canada gets $1 billion for domestic food processing so we stop exporting raw product and importing it back as something more expensive.

The targets are concrete: expand the Ontario Food Terminal by end of year, open two new food terminals and 10 regional food hubs by 2028.

This isn’t a handout to Loblaws. It’s infrastructure to break their stranglehold on the supply chain.

Will it fix your grocery bill overnight? No. But building real competition into the system is how you get lasting price relief, not a rebate that disappears after one quarter.

This is going to be a game changer for small independent grocers and food processors.

$1 billion in infrastructure.

$750 million earmarked for year round greenhouse production.

Conservatives and retail giants are going to hate this.

I’m loving it.

This one hits hard.

Doug Ford and Paul Calandra went through this ridiculous photo op to actually CUT funding for supplies?!?!???

This is a major scandal, and the media just moved right on to the next thing.

[Niall Stanage @NiallStanage]

This is a devastating interview.

Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good.

Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

[Scott Robertson @sarobertson_]

RBC chief economist: This is not a recession ... The problems facing Canada right now are not that growth is contracting. The problems facing Canada is an ongoing affordability crisis from everything from food to housing.

[Karen Kenyatta Russell🍀 @Karen_Russell]

Now I get it!

“The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.

That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.”

Wow it’s almost like “tough on crime” doesn’t actually work and you have to address the root causes

Hunter Biden proves that owning your mistakes is the MOST alpha move, ever.

[Soopervillain - 🇺🇸 @Excellentspeelr]

The thing about Hunter Biden is that America loves a comeback story.

His mom and sister killed. His brother killed. Ravaged by addiction. Pursued on all fronts.

Comes back a stronger and better man.

Attacking this guy is just gonna play badly.

Homophobes will literally tell a gay person to go kill themselves under a “happy pride” post on social media…. And in the same breath say “I don’t understand why they need a whole month?”

Because of YOU , bitch.

Moments ago: NDP leader Marit Stiles demands an apology from Premier Doug Ford for “betraying the people of Ontario” during this 29-day session.

“He spent their money on a luxury private jet… sold out the Toronto waterfront… & changed laws to hide his cell phone records.”

[Suzie rizzio @Suzierizzo1]

Don’t forget when Rome was collapsing emperors would use Gladiator fights to distract the people from the Corruption of the State at that time! This is all starting to make sense now. Who agrees?

[Margaret E Atwood @MargaretAtwood]

Who's behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? What I discovered should worry us all https://t.co/RsSippjdUX via @torontostar

[Kristyn Wong-Tam 🇨🇦 @kristynwongtam]

Breaking news today from the Toronto Star: American private wealth firm JP Morgan is behind Ford's waterfront takeover. Is it an American land grab? The more you dig the worse it looks for Ford — and Mark Carney, who needs to take a side. Add your name to oppose Ford's plan! https://t.co/jLrFWqhpH1

[Ron Jenkins @RonAJenkins]

The Billy Bishop Airport isn't an under-utilized jewel to be expanded.
It's sitting on 210 acres of Toronto's real & unique jewel: the Toronto Islands.
Unless I'm missing something, no other major city in the world overlooks a fresh water harbour and island paradise like this.

[Jennifer Keesmaat @jen_keesmaat]

Did Ontario just get snookered into a $5 billion airport expansion that no one wants for the benefit of a handful of American investors?

The plot thickens.

(You have to admit, it was odd how this popped back onto the agenda, out of the blue).

As a Canadian, I have a serious question:

How the hell is Donald Trump still in power after everything he's said, done, and been accused of?

Explain it to me like I'm in kindergarten.

Because nothing about it makes sense.

[Tina Yazdani @TinaYazdani]

NEW: An exhaustive review of roughly 200 flights in Doug Ford’s calendars reveal he essentially stopped flying commercial in late 2025, switching almost entirely to private flights.

Opposition blasted him during question period, but Ford insists he’s better than former premiers
