"Not only don't people work less when they are guaranteed an income, they might actually put in more effort at work. And the fact that they have more money to spend leads to the creation of more jobs." Nobel Prize–winning economists Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo
Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal opinion article titled “A Guaranteed Income Won’t Stop People From Wanting to Work,” by Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo. A subheading says evidence from programs around the world suggests basic income does not make recipients lazier. Below the headline is a photo of several women sitting outdoors at a table working.

This works out to an average of 118 kids in care deaths over three years, 1 death every 3 days. We still don't have 2023 and 2024 stats, which is probably there but you need to file another FOI request in order to get access. No government has hidden this info in the past that I could find.......4

Thousands of workers are waking up every morning not sure if they’re going to have a job to go to. So Doug Ford can point fingers and try to divert responsibility all he wants — what I’m concerned about is his ability to run a government.

Six landscape scenes across the West Island at Ontario Place. People walking and standing along a pebble beach, people walking and cycling along a waterfront tree-lined path, trees illuminated by lamps and string lights in the park, and a scene of the tree-covered island from the mainland at sunset.
