THERE WERE 15 RECOMMENDATIONS in the AG's report. NOT 14 as Ford has said over and over and over this morning. The one he's ignoring is reverse all the openings and start again! Please can every story today mention this.

What’s Really Going On In The Mind Of A Political Extremist https://t.co/npla1E6mgn via @forbes

50% "get their news from social media."

"...people who think they can’t be fooled by misinformation are the most likely to believe it."

Add ideology, confirmation bias, & in-group signalling = recipe for a post-truth society

2024 Calgary: Deerfoot Trail to become a "members-only" route, requiring a monthly fee of $300 to use Monday-Saturday. The road will be free on Sundays for the general public.

Quick reminder. The Harper conservatives raised the age you could start collecting CPP to 67. Trudeau’s Liberals return it to 65. If @PierrePoilievre was PM we would definitely see it go back up and perhaps even higher. Is everyone ready to work to 70 or beyond?

All Ontarians and Canadians need to heed the words of @wendellpotter Our healthcare is at risk. @fordnation and @SylviaJonesMPP are planning to destroy our healthcare and make it unaffordable for everyone but their rich friends. Call your MPP.

Since 2020, the richest 1% grabbed 63% of all new wealth while the other 99% was left to split the rest.

While normal folks make sacrifices to afford food, child care & every day expenses, the super-rich buy second homes, yachts & supreme court justices.

Pass the OLIGARCH Act!

"There simply comes a point where obscene wealth endangers our economy and democracy."

@RepBarbaraLee and @abigaildisney make the case for the OLIGARCH Act, introduced today in the House.

Before you foolishly believe many of Pierre Poilievre's false narratives, be aware of the facts.
PMJT is not responsible for:
rent increases, minimum wage, higher fuel prices, healthcare cuts, public education cuts, higher food costs etc. When it comes down to it everything..

Today, some of the books that shaped my life—and the lives of so many others—are being challenged by people who disagree with certain ideas or perspectives. And librarians are on the front lines, fighting every day to make the widest possible range of viewpoints, opinions, and ideas available to everyone.
