@sam_d_1995 @CBCQueensPark *Receives another 4-year term.

@CBCQueensPark this is factually incorrect. ontario, please do not give this moron another term in next week's election

Asked what he's doing to prevent climate change, Doug Ford mentions electric vehicle production & transit, but also claims building highways is a climate change solution "to get people home quicker, that they don't have to sit in gridlock and smell someone else's fumes." #onpoli

Yes? And??

@MazzucatoM @JeffDSachs I've been a huge fan of your work for years but seeing this take from you stings. It's intellectually vapid to create this rivaling hypothetical context. If the US acted aggressively, they should be judged on those terms. But given current context, Russia is acting unjustifiably.

I’m NO Putin fan, but let’s be honest: What would the United States do if Mexico, on it’s border, joined some sort of Russian and/or Chinese security alliance? ⁦@JeffDSachs⁩ provides wise advice: US should compromise on Nato to save Ukraine. on.ft.com/3h5ghl8

Tell me you don't have a foreign reporter on the ground in Ottawa without telling me you don't have a foreign reporter on the ground in Ottawa.

@DROettl Oh absolutely.

@DROettl And folks forget the big-tent nature of the Lib party means a sizable chunk of their base would be quite uncomfortable with an NDP alliance. The more left leaning (and online) Liberals forget how relatively conservative their non-online counterparts are. The centre would move etc

@SpartanVTyranny Kobo Clara. It's around $140. Quite good, and conveniently not made by Amazon.

Okay, library access has been too limited for too long, I can't afford to keep buying so many books, and my eyes will fall out if I read another PDF on my laptop. I think I need an e-reader. If anyone absolutely loves theirs and it's reasonably priced, please tell me.

@jlpobrien The pure higher-education based divide for the U.S in the 2010s, and apparent irrelevancy of economic class as a predictive indicator for vote intention is not what I would of expected.

@bruceanderson @nljco Wooof. I feel seen.

@jpags @TorontoStar *Europe laughs*

BREAKING: Committee supports Thompson's motion, killing Matlow's motion. There will be no legal drinking in parks this summer.

@cathmckenna Start with the book on the right! Why We're Polarized is excellent.

My relief from every day. #WorldBookDay

@scottsantens @MittRomney *Coughs Canada Child Benefit*

WOW! This is the best plan I've seen so far by anyone for a kids' UBI. @MittRomney has just proposed a fully universal and permanent monthly child allowance of $250-350/mo. Clawback is achieved via taxes just like stimulus should be! And it replaces TANF! vox.com/future-perfect…

@mattyglesias Shameless plug for parliamentary democracy.

@andrew_wr Satire is, and I cannot stress this enough, dead.

@DROettl New ownership...

@BrandonTozzo Dear god.

@DROettl Eh, the signs have been there the whole time tbh. Started with Fife praising Trump's initial handling of the outbreak weeks ago.
