@David3828279 @Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer I'm saying the Provinces are responsible for planning and administering the healthcare system. Most provinces don't spend the money they are allocated for healthcare wisely. In fact, federal transfers have increased faster than provincial spending.

@Procruste3 @Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer Are you saying the federal government plays no part in funding our proven-to-be-failing healthcare system?

DROP THE TAX!! AXE THE TAX!!

@David3828279 @Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer You do realize that healthcare is a provincial responsibility, don't you?

@Orwellsphone2 @Procruste3 @JayGenXer 25b. Enough to build at least ten new hospitals. I would’ve left Canada long ago if my entire family, life and livelihood werent here. Canada is a failed nation that has no hope of getting back to what it once was w the way the leftist parties control the media propaganda machine

@David3828279 @Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer Neither is the gas lobbiest disguised as a Premier. Manitoba has a provincial gas holiday, why not other provinces? calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

@Procruste3 @Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer The point is many of these countries are offering gas tax relief in these dire circumstances. But the wise “former banker” can’t seem to be bothered to help Canadians get through this. Instead he raised the carbon tax which will trickle down raising prices across the board

@Orwellsphone2 @JayGenXer Most oil refineries were shut down under Conservative governments. Also

@JayGenXer Pierre Trudeau was the Prime Minister when all of our oil refineries were shut down Then his son loaded us up with tax

@JayGenXer Drop the tax so the O&G can just jack up the prices again and upgrade their private jets! Glad to see who's side you are on.

@LisaPar25480962 Oh yeah, Canada is so unfair with that dairy quota.

Canadian trade barriers 1. American liquor 2. Dairy, poultry, eggs, chicken, and turkey 3. Cheese composition 4. Buy Canadian 5. Digital services Tax 6. Eliminate class 7 milk 7. Zero plastic waste 8. Restrict US seed 9. Online services 10. Quebec bill 109 ctvnews.ca/business/artic…

@AlanDersh And the disaster the US has created in Iran is not a NATO problem.

The Straits of Hormuz Should Not Be a U.S. Problem open.substack.com/pub/dersh/p/th…

@yegwave Yup, Canada is the opressor.

NEW: Tucker Carlson states that Canada is “oppressing its own citizens” and that one could “certainly make a regime change argument about Canada.”

@Dr_da_Vinci @laszlo_zagyva @SaltyGoat17 Wow! I got whiplash with that answer. For an MD, I'm relieved to hear you are "kind of" ashamed of Afghan and Iraqi deaths. Experts say Iran was no where close to a nuclear weapon and would have been even further if Trump didn't tear up JCPOA. scientificamerican.com/article/iran-w…

Actually the majority of deaths are on the other side, kind of ashamed of it but we probably killed a million Afghans and Iraqis with 45% of them being civilians. All war is bad, both Afghan and Iraq wars were in fact stupid and a huge waste of life and money. But letting Iran get a nuke is something anyone with an IQ > 100 knows is a bad idea.

Total NATO defense spending (2025): United States: $980,000,000,000 Europe + Canada: $512,337,000,000 We pay almost twice as much as ALL the other countries COMBINED!! And who protects who? Anyone else tired of being the world's ATM?

@Dr_da_Vinci @laszlo_zagyva @SaltyGoat17 So the the majority of US deaths are in wars started by the US?

@laszlo_zagyva @SaltyGoat17 These are NATO conflicts. US is leaving NATO have fun with Russia.

@MikeHall2018 @sarobertsonca Yeah, I don't know if you just crawled out of your mother's basement but it has been a key objective of the US government to move all car manufacturing to the US. Chew on that while you complain about EV's while gas prices are sensitive to any conflict in the world.

@sarobertsonca The end of our Auto Manuf'g Industry... and all at the behest of Marx Carney. That along with the other disastrous plan to stick with eVs (insane restrictions on ICE autos) and flying in the face of USA manuf's free hand, Canada is scoring MASSIVE own goals! Wake up folks!

Lana Payne on Stellantis building Chinese EVs in Brampton: "Generally the cars get built in China, they get taken apart into a couple of parts, and those parts get moved to facilities around the world, and then they get put together. It's called a knockdown kit, and it's not manufacturing."

@WBrettWilson If it was built in Alberta, it would be fueled by coal and slide along on a bed of leaky crude oil. Just to own the Libs. 🙄

Anyone wonder why a high speed train plan needs to go Montreal to Quebec and be paid for by all Canadians? Anyone wonder why feds aren’t pumping a high speed train between 2 of Canada’s largest city’s that are less than 300k apart & run past 2 huge international airports? Darn

@tsxir @WBrettWilson Ah, yes. That brilliant and cost effective "hyperloop". disconnect.blog/the-hyperloop-…

@WBrettWilson I would rather they develop some form of hyperloop if anything. Bring in the tech builders of today!

@Wino_Winnie Her cross isn't big enough!

Pam Bondi is out as AG I’m thinking Alina Habba.

@JJL_Sports @MichaelFordTO I guess Woodbine Entertainment is Jonesing for some of those sweet, sweet Ford Bucks.

@MichaelFordTO Hi Michael, thank you for everything you have accomplished for our community and the Province. Wishing you the very best in your next chapter. Jim

Please see my full statement below on not seeking re-election in the upcoming provincial election:

@MichaelFordTO I guess uncle Dougie found you a better paying job that your are equally unqualified for. Perhaps working with your cousin Kara? My guess is basket weaving courses only pay if your last name is Ford. torontolife.com/city/people-ar…

@mattybing I guess uncle Dougie found him a better paying job that he is equally unqualified for.

NEW: Michael Ford tells me after considering jumping into the race this fall, he's decided against a run to be Toronto's mayor. "I will remain very active in the city that I love and lend my support in whichever way makes Toronto a more safe, affordable and world class city."

@elie_mcn Wow! Everyone is now a freakin' railway expert. Must be nice to just look at a map and say "yeah, this looks good" without any further context, analysis or even understanding of what is required for HSR.

There is a railway that is effectively a straight line from Toronto to Montreal. Shown in BLUE. Building high speed rail along it would make sense. Instead, the Liberals propose a boondoggle of a line, shown in RED, that goes through all these communities they need to win.

@richard_ll79630 @dubsndoo BS. I'd take the slow train to Ottawa all the time. Factor in travel time to airports, security clearance, various wait times and sitting in a noisy, cramped tube, the train was just as quick and I could get a lot of work done while in transit (fast Wifi, table, leg room).

@dubsndoo Very few will ride it from end to end -- and taking an airplane would have gotten them there faster. Most trips would be shorter, and driving would be faster and more convenient. Especially when you factor in travelling to and from the stations.

How many seats will be on that train? There’s your answer about how many people will actually use it. Regular usage will be a couple of thousand tops.
