"The North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit is calling on the Ontario government to increase social assistance rates, saying many residents who rely on them cannot afford basic living costs. The request comes through a resolution passed by the Health Unit’s Board of Health as part of the province’s 2026 budget consultation process. The Board is urging the province to increase Ontario Works (#OW) and Ontario Disability Support Program (#ODSP) payments and to tie OW rates to inflation. Health officials say the move is based on local data showing the growing gap between social assistance income and the rising costs of food and housing. Each year, public health agencies in #Ontario monitor food affordability under provincial standards. The health unit estimates food costs using the Ontario Nutritious Food Basket survey and compares them with local rental rates. In 2025, the Health Unit also conducted a pilot project examining market rent in North Bay and Parry Sound, finding that people moving into new rental housing faced much higher costs than averages reported by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation." baytoday.ca/local-news/nor…

#PeelPolice are investigating 82 officers for cheating to get promotions. This would prove that corruption is widespread throughout the #PeelPoliceService. All this after Stacey Clark of the #TorontoPolice was caught helping officers cheat for promotions. thestar.com/news/gta/peel-…

Bill 98 is proof that while, Doug Ford feels the heat over water privatization, he hasn’t given up on his plans. In this Bill, he and his Conservatives are creating more elaborate fronts so they can forge ahead with removing our water from local control and make their developer friends even wealthier. Read this Bill closely, and especially its Schedule 9: Doug Ford is de-democratizing Ontario. By dissolving regional government, he’s getting rid of local accountability and communities’ control of their water and other infrastructure. Ultimately, it’s about downloading the burden of water costs to municipal residents so developers can save money. Doug Ford is counting on his ability to muddy the waters around public ownership of water and wastewater, drag a bunch more regions into his schemes and create competition between upper- and lower-tier municipalities. No perfunctory nod to workers keeping their jobs will hide the fact that on this subject, like his changes to freedom of information, we can’t take him at his word. #onpoli

Microslop has made a huge U turn on copilot. Other AI companies take note. AI is "not for serious use" and is for "entertainment purposes only". So get AI out of our healthcare and civil service systems, out of our military.

This sounds like a patchwork of visions fed to him by lobbyists, for lobbyists, he’s got no ideas of his own. And it all sounds awful.

The owner of the Globe and Mail and Thomson Reuters - who also owns 1/3 of The Canadian Press - is powering ICE and Palantir. Owner of Thomson Reuters is Lord Thomson of Fleet, aka fucked up piece of shit, David Thomson. Canada's wealthiest family. 404media.co/how-thomson-re…

When Bill 5 was passed, it created Special Economic Zones in Ontario, like in China, UAE, Russia, India and Turkey. We wrote about that, seems like no one else did. 🤫 Excerpts below, link to the free article at the end.

Doug Ford has money to pay 124 Metrolinx VPs, but not enough to stop cutting schools. Now the TDSB is firing 40 vice principals because of his funding cuts. Teachers, parents, and students have more questions than answers. Ontario's kids are being left behind.

"Billy Bishop has a limited # of gates, a single airstrip, a cap on flight paths, & a strictly enforced nighttime curfew that limits air traffic. It would quickly run out of parking spots - not just for 🚗 on the mainland, but ✈️ on the island." #onpoli thestar.com/politics/polit…

Ontario: We're boycotting the US. Ford: I'm working for Ontario, from Texas.

This is outrageous! By giving his government the power to appoint ALL regional chairs across Ontario, @fordnation is effectively seizing control of regional governments. School boards. Killing FOIs. And now, regional councils. Ford is dismantling our democracy.

Ontario is permanently out of compliance with Canada Health Act. Feds are as personally invested in private medicine as their provincial counterparts are. It's like the housing crisis. They are landlords and own REITs - they aren't going to "fix" it because it profits them.

Protect Ontario from Doug Ford.

Because they already allowed nurse practitioners to bill you, see...

Queen’s Park is remaining mum on why the salaries of supervisors appointed by the province to oversee London Health Sciences Centre and the Thames Valley District school board are not being made public. tinyurl.com/5n7ahr8h #onpoli

This piece of shit is running Ontario's healthcare system into the ground on her two years "studying" radio at Fanshawe. So, it's on brand.
