Canada’s wealth gap is the widest it’s been in StatCan’s recorded history. You’d think Carney would focus on that -- not privatization. In fact, “Carney’s policies will only make inequality even worse," @dtcochrane.bsky.social, a senior economist with the Canadian Labour Congress, told me. Uh oh:

"In a move critics charge is “anti-democratic,” Premier Doug Ford plans to appoint the chairs of Halton, Durham and several other regions while giving them “strong” powers now held only by elected mayors."

In some ways, #TumblerRidge appears almost too perfect to be true. But the heartache brought to the small northern B.C. community on Tuesday is only too real. @amandafollett.bsky.social writes.

Taxpayers will pay [?$Ms?] for taking down photo radar and pay for putting up flashing lights and building speed bumps across the province for Mayor Doug Ford; while he fails to address the crisis in care. So that some of his friends can drive faster, and he comes across like a bro to bro voters.

If cabinet is hoping the guy who wrote the fascist playbook will give advice on stopping fascism then we are in trouble. Adorno reminds us that clever people were the first to be suckered by the fascist playbook because they thought they could outsmart it. There is nothing hidden in their plan.

The Minister of Education’s announcement today is nothing short of a power grab. Instead of fixing real issues—like the billions cut from education—the Ford government is playing political games with our kids’ futures. We need investments, not partisan appointments. #onpoli #onted

Read this. “The bitter truth is we knew Trump was impetuous. We knew he loves to bully his allies more than enemies— witness how he relishes humiliating, say, GOP senators. And we knew he would act out the Ugly American shtick on the world stage. We elected him anyway. Still, picking on … Canada?”
