Just about every day there's something new for the 'This Fucking Government!' file. 😬

Since Doug Ford has yet to accomplish anything good, the case for him to do what he does faster isn't clear-cut.

@bballdad44745 Somebody needs to tell them that 25's the cutoff age for this stuff!

Never saw this once in Toronto… just sayin’…

@althiaraj @ctdickson @alexstubb Also, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources already maintains non-luxury aircraft for transporting employees to remote worksites where necessary. Their Twin Otter aircraft has a range of 1971 km, more than between the most distant geographical corners of Ontario.

Well, I can believe it takes two planes to fly him anywhere.

Ford's not even hiding it anymore. He thinks we're stupid and he can get away with anything. Based on our voting record, he's right.

Yes, losing at politics and then crying about how unfairly they're being treated. 😪

Doug Ford one of the worst of those challenges, and self-inflicted with eyes wide-open.

@sarobertsonca This was merely a courtesy gesture for anyone who missed yesterday's eruption. Anyway, I'd send wilful ignorance in against illusion of knowledge any day. Not only that, Pierre has both going on!

Pierre Poilievre: "The gap between Mr. Carney's boasting and his results is perhaps unprecedented. As Daniel Boorstin said, 'the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.'"

@ColinDMello He's an obtuse bozo.

Premier Ford says “no” to shutting down surveillance pricing. “No, I believe in capitalist society, free market. The market dictates, if ABC grocery store wants to compete against the other one, that's that's what the true driver is, free and fair competition and let the market dictate” #onpoli

@ColinDMello 'Pot, meet kettle.' 🙄

As Premier Doug Ford was asked about the OSAP changes, he thundered back, calling the Ontario Liberals a "bunch of amateurs" who would bankrupt a lemonade stand. Note: Under Ford, Ontario's debt will grow to half-a-trillion and the budget has yet to be balanced. #onpoli

Isn't he gone yet?

Can't be soon enough, but one day Scheer and Poilievre will be sitting side by side in the HOC reminding us all of Statler and Waldorf, those two old cranks on Sesame Street!

@AaronGunn Sure, question whatever you like about Liberal success, but CPC needs to get serious about why they can't do anything about it. (Leaders do outlast their shine, as Aaron himself pointed out.)

The media is being disingenuous with Canadians. This time pretending that Mark Carney earned his majority government tonight at the ballot box. The truth is, these were already Liberal seats – two of them among the safest in the country (the previous Liberal MPs recently resigned). Mark Carney’s real majority was obtained through backroom deals and floor crossings over the past 6 months. The first time in more than 150 years of Canadian history that a Prime Minister has sought the almost unlimited power of a majority government not through a mandate from voters, but through their very deception and deceit. Counting on the individual weakness and duplicity of a handful of MPs to overturn the result of a democratic election and concentrate power that the Prime Minister may covet, but does not deserve. The Liberals may consider this strategy to have been a success, but as the shine of their government, and Mark Carney, inevitably wears off, and the electorate realizes they are left with a different leader, but the same policies, as Justin Trudeau, voters may well resent the fact that in many ridings their vote will feel stolen, their voice silenced, and the verdict of Canada’s democracy, rejected and ignored.

@briangarrett @Debalap Many sources are promoting resentment against 'the other' for their own advantages right now, often but not always political ones. It's time to stop normalizing hate and rage against people we don't know, and get back to recognizing them as the character failings they are.

Canada has been a blast so far 👍 I don’t really understand why the country gets so much hate 🤔 After actually coming here and seeing Montreal, Toronto and Niagara Falls it’s a beautiful place with friendly helpful people, great food and lots of amazing views 🌁

@Simi_2210_ 179

If you solve this, you’re different Can you solve ?

@TorontoStar He does seem to be the Ed Rogers whisperer, but maybe wait and see if he's a a genius more than one year out of ten.

Could Mark Shapiro be in charge of the Maple Leafs? How the Rogers sports empire might reshape MLSE trib.al/6tAnRsA

@sunlorrie Now list all the ones who would have refused on principle... 😄

Program note: Since Canada's founding in 1867: 'No prime minister has relied on floor-crossing to reach majority status.' Carney will be the first. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

Some of us told you, you wouldn’t recognize this province once Ford got done with it. This is like a Mike Holmes show: he’s tearing the province back to the studs and building an even poorer, shittier one.

Side point: MPs or their political parties should be required to post a bond that is forfeit if the MP resigns without reasonable cause. (NOT for a better opportunity or to create room for a seatless leader.) CPC should have paid for Poilievre's by-election, not me!

What's a great song that contains or mentions laughter?
