Canada is literally the only G7 country without high speed rail. Conservatives want you to continue to pay sky high prices for gas, worsen congestion on roads and make your commute hours longer. We've been "studying" high speed rail for 50 years - time to get it built.

Americans are so conditioned to the car dependency that comes from zoning laws that they can't imagine a scenario in which ordinary errands or places of employment are within biking distance. There's hope! E-bikes flatten hills and make it easy (even fun!) to get places that

Mike Harris, who made private long term care legal in Ontario, was the chair of Chartwell for years, well into the pandemic. The Canadian military was deployed to Chartwell LTCs to pick up and dispose of dead seniors who died of thirst, starvation and neglect.

The biggest mistakes governments make are power grabs that assume they will be in power forever. ***No party is in power forever.*** Yet all politicians seem to forget this. All that power you just snatched for yourself and your office at Queen's Park, to control as much as

JUST IN: You do not fire your Army Chief of Staff in the middle of a war for no reason. You fire him because of what comes next. Pete Hegseth called General Randy George on April 2 and told him to retire immediately. The Pentagon confirmed it within hours. No reason was given.

A classroom has typically 37 kids so that card will only cover $20 per child. For the entire school year. And the teachers can only use this card at Staples, an ally of Ford’s. They can’t use it at say Amazon to get better prices or even Dollarama. THIS IS NOT SUPPORT.

This is why he fought so hard to keep his phone records and mandate letters hidden. I’m pretty sure this is only the tip of the iceberg too. #onpoli

This is what happens when the Province downloads services to Municipalities but doesn't give them the funding. The dirty trick part is Ford swooping in and firing Regional managers because they couldn't do their jobs without thaat money. It's Fords fault cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

BREAKING: NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte flew to Washington to discuss Ukraine’s $60 billion defense requirement for 2026. He spent over two hours being dressed down about Iran. When he emerged, he told CNN the meeting was “very frank” and acknowledged that “some allies failed

Waiting for an MRI in Ontario can take anywhere up to eight months and Doug Ford spent 29 MRI machines on a jet so he could be more comfy on his one-hour flight to Ottawa once a year.

Dude, this sounds like he had a 40-year relationship with organized crime and for some reason is scared. Release the Ford files!

In April 1988, Doug Ford Sr., father of future Toronto Mayor Rob Ford reported a large amount of cash, described as enough to buy a luxury car, was stolen from a wall in the basement of the Ford family home during renovations. Doug Ford Sr. was furious and demanded that his...

Banksy didn’t just blind the man with the flag. He gave him the confidence to stride anyway. This isn’t the usual 'patriotism makes you stupid' jab everyone keeps repeating. Look at the suit, the plinth, the imperial corridor of Waterloo Place... this is the modern power

Why are U.S. companies being awarded public contracts to build Ontario hospitals? The trade & tariff war has been going on for months. Ford's regime said they would prioritize Ontario businesses, but at the same time has given a $140m deal to a U.S. firm.

Canada and Ontario are a democracy, but it often feels like we’ve lost *democratic culture*. You can see it in the debates we’re having (and lack there of). I’ll use the Toronto Island/Billy Bishop controversy as an example. 👇 First, what is the problem? - The island
