Nigro is chair of the LCBO right now. 😆 Chaired Ontario Place Corporation. 😆 Head of the Ontario PC party fundraising arm. Received a whack of MZOs. Was on the board of Runnymede where Doug's daughter makes a fortune. "Doug's friend" obscures the scale of the corruption.

@PWHL_Montreal Woo Hoo 🥳 🇨🇦🎉 ✨️✨️✨️

Doug Ford’s Ontario sucks. Check my next post.

@servicerotties ❤️🤗🐾 ... oh Marla, what fun 😉😊😘

Even though he's a clumsy mooseweiler with clown feet right now, he is related to me and has a naturally lovely gait. Until he trips on himself. #Rottweilers

By Trump’s reaction, you could’ve guessed that the reporter is not just a woman, but has dark skin. Because he is a vicious, racist, sexist pig.

@MailboatN gorgeous ... and ... calm

Back to mailboat'n. Always good to be back at the helm. Burrows Island first thing this morning, a GBH(great blue heron, Mount Baker over Guemes Channel and something a little different. Our campsite last weekend was located in the forest just above the the grassy knoll.

In other words, “my consigliere is taking care of business, folks.”

In Ojibwe our word for sky is giishigoong(gee-shi-goong; hard g). Sunset on beautiful Manitoulin Island.

Emilie Nicolas on David Parker and Alberta separatist groups: "I think there's a tactical playbook here that is also being borrowed or imitated and copied. And we need to look at the ways in which democracy south of the border is being eroded to be able to at least anticipate what moves could be done next."

Responding to the AG reports, Marit Stiles points out the gov doesn't live stream it's news conference on the reports and has banned opposition politicians from the studio where it takes place, meaning she hasn't heard the govt's defence Gov used to use media studio.#OnPoli

@howllr ... worry

@mamctwit He is?

If he lied anymore, his false face would fall off.

Well done Tofino B.C. 👏 It became the first municipality in Canada to officially ban the retail sale of single-use plastic water bottles (1 litre and under). Tofino is the "test case"; do you think the rest of Canada should follow suit? 🇨🇦 #BanPlastic #NoMoreWaterBottles

The Ford government bought Doug Ford a luxury private jet while Ontarians struggled to pay rent and afford groceries. They want you to forget about it. We certainly won’t. #onpoli

The Centurion Project leader, David Parker, who is alleged to have exposed the personal information of nearly 3 million Albertans, is now refusing to cooperate with the ongoing investigation, according to Elections Alberta. This is deeply concerning. Bad actors in our democracy are a danger to us all. Yet Danielle Smith and the UCP government have still failed to take meaningful action to protect Albertans from the potential threat this data breach poses. It is time to put politics aside and act in the best interest of Albertans. Yesterday, the UCP voted down Bill 210, introduced by the Alberta NDP, legislation that would have provided Albertans with basic credit protection services against fraud and identity theft in the event of a data breach. That protection is needed now more than ever. theglobeandmail.com/canada/alberta…

There’s a shoe that adjusts and expands five sizes and lasts a child up to five years. It was invented by a young American named Kenton Lee, who was volunteering at an orphanage outside Nairobi, Kenya in 2007. Walking to church one day with the children, he looked down at a girl beside him in a white dress and saw she’d cut open the front of her shoes so her toes could stick out. Her feet had outgrown them and no new ones were coming. He went home to Idaho and spent the next six years figuring out how to build a shoe that could grow with a child. Nike, Adidas, Crocs, and Toms all turned the idea down. He ended up buying 20 pairs of Crocs himself and cutting them up to prototype it. The Shoe That Grows finally launched in 2014. Around 400,000 pairs have now been distributed in over 100 countries. Over 1.5 billion people worldwide get sick from soil parasites that enter the body through bare or exposed feet. Mostly children.

The Ford government abruptly ended a press conference today after @Thetrilliumca asked about a Ford friend's $500M Metrolinx expropriation dispute. #onpoli thetrillium.ca/news/governmen…

No accountability. From the moment we arrived at this press conference we were instructed to ask “on-topic” questions only, and that we would be given “one question each” when we were called on. I was never called on & Premier Ford refused to take my questions.
