This is such bullshite. The new inclusion rates didn't push ppl to sell. It pushes investors who bought cottage real estate for profit. Many over-leveraged during Covid & are watching their asset deflate after the bubble. This isn't an avg Canadian issue. globalnews.ca/news/10559231/…

They nailed it with this video. I think Jimmy Kimmel said his team produced it. On point and funny. Thanks for hearing me out and taking the time to read my thread. PLEASE vote 🙏🏽

Looks like a good week to not be doing the "running" and the "outside-ing" stuff. Welcome to the topical island of Southern Ontario. It'll freeze you and then boil you with the span of a few months...

Another Conservative Party member sharing disinformation. Larry the Plumber isn't being punished by the new inclusion rate. But Larry will be punished w/ cuts to services & privatization if the CPC have their way. Marty seems more concerned protecting rich real estate investors like PeePee.

We'll download a ton of expenses but then think it's positive that we'll massively over subscribe, giving small revenue amounts under the label of 'investing in students'. Every college is getting hit with 2x expenses over revenues, with increased students & no real support.

Ford govt ramming through shutdowns on a Friday afternoon, despite Infrastructure Ontario saying everything is fine. I guess his buddies who've invested that real estate (before it was rezoned for them) were getting a tad restless & wanted to get their profit-train moving along.

This is a big reason why many people struggle outside academia. The whole systems, from your studies to pursuing employment, through review & tenure, as well as funding & publishing… Inside the bubble, you can forget you’re highly trained, qualified & can offer a lot of value.

With less than 5% of the Science Centre roof in need of repairs, the architecture firm that designed the building says a full closure is unnecessary & rash. They are offering to pay for the fixes themselves, in order to keep it open. Full story: toronto.citynews.ca/video/2024/06/…

Folks, I might not walk as easily or talk as smoothly as I used to. I might not debate as well as I used to. But what I do know is how to tell the truth.

It's the theatre of the absurd in politics right now. Remember the good ol' days when being a narcissistic convicted felon and sexual predator with desires to become a dictator might, perhaps, make you a poor fit for leader.

I regularly encounter folks using weed publicly, who treat it like tobacco, legal & not a 'real drug'. So, to be clear, all open drug use shouldn't be tolerated? Or just the "problem" drugs people seem to dislike seeing because it reminds them of the serious drug epidemic here.

I just published my first article on Medium. It's called "Sustainable Hospitality", focused on people-first leadership & putting people before profit motives when making decisions. I'd love it if you'd take a couple minutes to read it. 👍 link.medium.com/UVoVjYQZ1Lb

I've created a new home for all of my future writing & content. It's a work in progress. I decided to build it live & in real time, sharing it as it grows. Here's my first blog called "Sustainable Hospitality", my statement on people-first leadership. williamcmurray.ca

Some comedy this afternoon. Listening to RFK Jr's delusional ramblings about suspending his campaign. He lives in a different reality, stating that he could have won the election. No. You couldn't. Also said he wouldn't be a 'spoiler' but is leaving his name on ballots.
