"(Doug Ford is) flooding the zone with all sorts of news in order to confuse and distract from the things that actually matter" - @RobynUrback in @globeandmail #Ontario theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

Alberta's fiscal year ends in two weeks. With oil prices up, the government's deficit forecast of $4.1 billion is now on track for roughly half that. #ableg

@PCArsenault Pepper spray is extremely effective on untrained individuals — and even trained officers are incapacitated if sprayed unexpectedly, at close range, or in high concentration.
The “illusion of uselessness” is a cognitive bias created by controlled exposure, not a chemical truth.

English

Pepper spray is no joke! But is it a valid self-defence tool? Many police officers across as North America no longer consider it a valid use-of-force option.
In my latest YouTube vid, I cover real use cases from a policing angle and whether or not it's something to seriously consider. Is it protection...or just the 'illusion' of protection?
Please visit my YouTube channel for the full video, click the link in my profile, or search for my channel under my full name, Randall Arsenault.

I love this throwback, originally posted 2020, finally relevant 😂

@ArfinNathaniel Or investigators are better at uncovering police corruption that has been rampant for decades.

@ColborneGreg I can’t prove he caused them, but at best he’s been ambivalent to these growing issues. At worst, he’s actively contributing to them.

@CoastGuardCAN Why don't our rivers have overflow basins to catch melting snow and ice, to not only reduce the risk of flooding but also reduce drought and keep hydro dams more productive all year round?

@nurdogandiyorki The "killing of 170 girls" is disinformation from pro-Iranian regime accounts, which makes you either part of the IRGC or a complete retard.
English

What about the US and Israel’s attacks on Iran?
Have you spoken out about the killing of 170 girls?
Anita Anand@AnitaAnandMP
Canada is appalled by the Iranian Government’s execution of a Swedish citizen in Iran. We offer our deepest condolences to the family and express our full solidarity with Sweden. Canada continues to call on the Iranian regime to respect human rights and uphold their responsibilities under international law.

For all the “experts” that call our beautiful 🇨🇦 oil “dirty”. If you heavy, it doesn’t mean dirty!! Only 2% of 🇺🇸 oil production is °API 20 or lower with density of 933.1 kg/m3 or higher, yet US is configured to refine mainly heavy oil. Thus, most incremental prd from US and products like propane, likely to be exported to emerging markets, while Canadian oil imports become a necessity. 🇨🇦🫡🪒

@RazorOil For all the “experts” that call our beautiful 🇨🇦 oil “dirty”...
Again, it is literally oil in dirt.

@CityNewsTO If there is a baby boomer trying to stop development, it is because they are a baby boomer trying to stop development and nothing more.
Just another piece of shit stopping development that would make life easier for younger generations.

Scientists and former conservation authority executives say Ontario's proposed conservation authority amalgamation could be setting the stage for less flood protections and more land grabs by developers.

@TylerStack @ColinDMello We also need laws that penalize news orgs when they target one party and not the other.
English

@ColborneGreg @ColinDMello True. Carney's getting the pass that Ford used to get. I hope his doesn't last as long.
English

From the Globe and Mail's Robyn Urback:
"The deluge of inconsequential announcements seems intended to distract from the Premier’s move to change freedom of information laws to exempt himself, his cabinet ministers and their offices from public requests."

@TylerStack @ColinDMello Indeed. Though my point is that Colin is holding a Premier to a higher standard than the Prime Minister.
English

@ColborneGreg @ColinDMello For anyone paying attention it's very easy to see that Carney and Ford are operating in lockstep. They keep doing the same things. Just look at Bill C5 & Bill 5. Both allow them to skip regulatory processes.
English

@AndreaGrebenc There isn't an outright ban on FOI requests
Mark Carney implemented the same rules for the federal government last summer.

Doug Ford is a mattress salesman, waving accessories in front of your face, hoping that you won’t notice the box spring is being held together by thumbtacks.
Doug Ford has utterly wasted an extraordinary mandate theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

@GalenNHarris Consumer power.
When a price is too high, stop paying it.
If you supported the prices, you chose to accept that price.
English

Kathleen Wynne did this a decade ago. The Ford Government paused it. You've been paying more for your tickets since 2018 because of Doug Ford.

@tylerwatt And Trudeau took on Bidens mass illegal immigration.
Except HOV lanes, BYOB, or anything Ford has done, none of that has been as damaging to either country as the open door policy.
Liberals = crime spikes and rampant gangs.
English

Doug Ford is pulling straight from Trump's distraction playbook - HOV lanes, BYOB, whatever sticks.
All while he changes the law to hide information from the public by getting rid of FOIs.
This isn’t leadership - it’s a cover-up. Ontarians deserve transparency. #onpoli
