Hey @tsnofficial.bsky.social I couldn’t believe my ears (around 10 second mark). I had my husband listen to make sure I wasn’t hearing things. First of all, Nick Suzuki is not Chinese. And even if he was.. WTF??!! It’s so offensive. But should I be surprised?

Our politics seems to be entering a phase of "right supremacy" where only the lives of right-wingers have value. Assassinating the leader of a state legislative body in her own damn home was business as usual, but all of America has to have a reckoning if it's a far-right online influencer.

My cynical take is that nobody listened because it was Toronto and people enjoy Toronto getting hit with crap. But all of Ontario is paying billions, and it's their Ontario Place too (and their Science Centre, and their Greenbelt and...). Useless Canadian internecine bullshit strikes again.

A Times investigation shows Therme, a European firm, exaggerated its track record in securing a deal with Ontario, and government auditors found that the process had been unfair and opaque.

Ontario voted for continued decline in health care, education, smart infrastructure, and competence, but an increase in places to buy booze. And the Ontario Liberals choosing Bonnie Crombie was an absolute self-immolation.

The op-ed below, by Ezra Klein, argues a *critical* truth we can’t forget: “Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him.”👇

The amount of money the Ontario government lost by eliminating license plate fees would be enough to end chronic homelessness in our province, according to a new report from the Association of Municipalities of Ontario: www.amo.on.ca/policy/healt...
A bar graph against a background of license plates. It shows "Ending outdoor and encampment homelessness in Ontario" with a price tag of $0.7 billion per year, and "Getting rid of license plate stickers" with a price tag of $1.1 billion per year.
