"Humans, privileging the works of social historians, challenges many long-accepted conclusions about various historical eras that traditional global histories have kept alive." Alvin Finkel provides a peek at his new book in today's post. activehistory.ca/blog/2024/11/1…

@Traceys00088057 We are talking about a national leader making grand claims about a poor choice at a single high school. This is not national news or a national issue. Yes, it is inappropriate but it happened at 0.001% of Ontario high schools. This is politics at its worst. #cdnpoli

@tpcanoe It's not shameful at all. We shouldn't have to compromise who we are as canadians, our history, our values and our belief systems to pander, to others. They can sit alongside us and be true to their own belief system.

@JAH5198 @tpcanoe It would be a reasonable point if there was a reasonable concern that matched reality. All I found is a Palestinian protest song being played at a school and debunked allegations that Chaplains were banned from prayer, which the CPC pushed. The implications in his tweet are lies.

@JAH5198 What am I missing? I Google searched a few terms and there hasn’t been any coverage that I have seen. I am happy to retract if there has indeed been widespread desecration of the day or cenotaphs.

@tpcanoe Seems he has an entirely reasonable point.

@woolf_atthedoor The seeming lack of interest in the past is something that I have found difficult to understand over the past decade.

@woolf_atthedoor I hope that you are wrong, but I feel very similar. It seems as if few lessons were learned from the 20th century.

So far my ⁦@CityofLdnOnt⁩ council has banned encampments from residential neighbourhoods, & now they have banned shelters from business improvement districts. It is hard to understand how this doesn’t lead to ghettoization of poverty in #ldnont lfpress.com/news/local-new…

Brian Lilley ran a column today about how we will likely end up with a “balanced” budget in #onpoli. It is worth observing that #cdnpse is at a breaking point because so-called #RespectForTaxpayers policies have left our institutions w/o resources to support the public.

No more red tape… errr… only for alcohol sales and other inane projects, otherwise lots of red tape for people who threaten the status quo &, of course, bike lanes.
