The wrong way to treat the right to know archive.ph/5cLNI#select...
Evidence is piling up that the three-term government is increasingly allergic to transparency. This is self-serving behaviour from politicians with no shortage of scandals, making it harder for the media and public to hold them to account.
Especially now, with the province facing major threats, Mr. Ford needs to remember that the public is his boss. They have a right to know what he is doing.
In a few ways, though, the premier has made it harder for the people to keep tabs on him.
One example is the no-press press conference. One of these happened last month.
On that day, Mr. Ford livestreamed a housing announcement on YouTube. Although this looked on its face like a press conference it was lacking one crucial element: journalists. In fact, the media didn’t find out about the event until Mr. Ford’s social media account posted that it had happened.

The pro-AI expansionist federal & provincial govts have a real problem. New numbers from @angusreidinstitute.bsky.social show us Canadians don't like AI or data centres. Despite Carney's techno-optimist AI speeches, only 28% of Cdns polled say AI is a force for good. That's 📉 from 29% in 2025.
A graph illustrating answers to the polling question, Agree vs. disagree: "Artificial intelligence is a force for good in society".

Strongly agree - 3%
Agree - 25%
Disagree - 34%
Strongly disagree - 24%
Not sure/can't say - 14%
