We’re expanding the Canadian Dental Care Plan. Starting today, Canadians aged 55-64 can apply. In the coming weeks, applications will open to Canadians aged 18-54.

Because of this plan, millions of people can now afford to see a dentist — some for the first time in decades. Soon, millions more will get that same care.

NO WE DO NOT SUBSIDIZE CANADA.

Why lie about something so easily verifiable?

Obsessed with Hank Azaria doing the voices of Moe, Chief Wiggum, etc, in an attempt to make this soldier crack. I don’t think I’d last a microsecond.

The cuts at Bell Media hit @CTVNationalNews hard this week. A thread about the some of the staff we lost. We keep hearing about the cost of news- I want you to hear about the value.
We’ve lost passionate journalists- who put their heart and soul into their work-

Such a joy. Delighted to see a new novel by Sean Michaels out in the world where everyone can discover what a rare treat it is

[Jennifer Keesmaat @jen_keesmaat]

This is mind-boggling. Ontarians are being told that one political staffer was able to take over the machinery of government and override civil servants to remove land from the cherished, protected Greenbelt, increasing the value of developers’ - who are key donors to the Conservative party - property by billions of dollars. And neither the minister nor the Premier knew?

Yeah, that is believable.

If this was true, it would be the most remarkable failure of leadership.

There are now three reasons for the Minister to resign:

1) violation of the Planning Act, in removing these lands without due process as established in regulation
2) the breach of public trust, in serving the interests of a handful of developers instead of the public
3) lying about doing so

Bluefin tuna in the Salish Sea? These fish are biologically incredible (and migratory heroes) and it will be fascinating (and scary) to see how they respond to our warming seas. (*Lots* in my new book about this!)

We would like to share the playlist that Ryuichi had been privately compiling to be played at his own funeral to accompany his passing. He truly was with music until the very end.
