On the 13th aniversary of his death, let's not forget the time Jack Layton made the clear case for proportional representation during the 2011 Federal Election debate.
Truly an inspiring leader.
During the biggest pandemic in 100 years, Doug Ford’s PC gov’t left it to volunteers to create a system to locate life-saving vaccines.
Less than 3 days into the #LCBO strike, his gov’t has made and launched an interactive map to locate alcohol anywhere in Ontario.
It doesn't seem that a single Canadian media outlet has reported on the Lancet's new estimate that at it's probably that at least 186,000 people have been killed by Israel's war on the people of Gaza. I can't find a single report.
Sorry, but Chief Demkiw saying he hoped the verdict would go another way right after the *judge* suggested his officers colluded and perjured themselves isn't just "controversial," it implies this conduct is a TPS norm and possibly even encouraged

TPS 🧵 It is your obligation to pull over and exchange information in the event of a collision. It’s also the right thing to do to ensure the person you hit receives cautionary medical attention as they may be in shock. You don't just drive away officer...1/3
This is disappointing, Mayor Chow—the police have bullied, fear-mongered, and threatened to get what they want.
They have inappropriately used city resources to campaign for an additional $12.5M, and City Council is capitulating. The police shouldn't have this power.
Seeing some news (finally) about Long Covid behaving like HIV.
I have been HIV positive since 2007 and am very lucky to have a very good doctor, an HIV specialist, so I asked him about it.
took over two months of a genocide for canada to vote for a ceasefire. it’s good they finally did, but still incredible shameful and should be a stain on our country forever. and fyi we will not stop protesting until palestine is free, this is just the beginning
y’all have no respect for the ppl who make your life easier. the person making your morning coffee deserves a livable wage. the person stocking the groceries you buy deserves a livable wage. the person cleaning the restrooms in the office you work at deserves a livable wage.
So let me get this straight: The City of Toronto was ok with the Toronto Police using $337,000 of our tax dollars to create a podcast barely anyone listened to...but wasn't ok using $400,000 to fund a 24/7 warming centre to prevent hypothermia & death?
Where are our priorities?
@NoLore@TimothyHelmuth Travel agent here, You can try and make a claim with TICO that they are not following the Transport guidelines. We are seeing a lot of airlines trying to skirt the payments despite the passenger regulations in place
