Miss Jo Peter Hitchens Having a car is anything but having freedom. It provides an illusion of freedom but is nothing short of being a millstone round one’s neck. Huge costs of maintenance, traffic jams, lack of parking spaces, a thoroughly depreciating asset. People who don't own a car are happier.

Another Trudeau analysis ignores the unprecedented, well-funded, relentless years-long CPC attack campaign against Trudeau, aided by a willing right-wing media and paid pundits and bots. Why do these analyses ignore that? #Canada gzeromedia.com/gzero-north/ju…

“Who’s Subsidizing Whom?” I have written a new report for the Centre for Future Work Centre for Future Work (Canada) rebutting Trump’s arguments that the U.S. “subsidizes” Canada through its bilateral trade deficit: centreforfuturework.ca/wp-content/upl…. #cdnecon #cdnpoli #canlab /2

Speer's fundamental argument that societal attitudes don't change and that it's bad when they do couldn't be more wrong-headed. If anything, the pace of change has never been so great. But as Speer reminds us, albeit unintentionally, some find it hard to keep up.

This snap election isn’t about Trump or tariffs—it’s about Doug Ford scrambling to outrun the RCMP investigation into his Greenbelt scandal. Ontario's economy is failing thanks to Ford. We are not prepared to weather this storm. And instead of owning up to his actions, Ford is

Lemme get this straight: Ford now needs an election to spend our billions after spending 2.2B on Ontario Place 'spa', overpaying nursing agencies, Starlink, and planning a stupid tunnel under 401 for 50-100B? 🙄 Ontario cannot afford Ford. #onpoli 🔗 youtu.be/5YAo4mv7HRY?si…

Toronto has a lot of rich people. This city helped create the conditions to make a lot of people very wealthy. It shouldn’t be too much to ask that they step up to give something back. #Opinion trib.al/aD6MVI2

TDot Resident I love that the PC’s are calling out the opposition for not providing a costed platform. Costed and platform are 2 words that are NOT in a PC’s vocabulary. Pot meet kettle.

Finnish journalist Mikko Marttinen has a much simpler explanation for Trump's recent speeches: "Trump, 78, is the most dim-witted president of modern US history, and old age has made him even dumber."

Twelve weeks after giving 2 weeks notice, Phil Verster's LinkedIn profile still says he's Metrolinx CEO. Is he still on the payroll? Did he move to Riyadh, as a few good sources say? Why haven't party leaders made Metrolinx dysfunction an election issue? #onpoli

Deeply depressing listening to TTC chair Councillor Jamaal Myers on CBC Here and Now. He doesn't appear to have a clear understanding of TTC operations let alone why it can't provide decent service after a snowstorm. No wonder the TTC is a mess.Time to take public transit seriously in TO.

Russia's "leaders have weaponized starvation, child abduction, sexual violence and genocide. If these are not acts of terrorism, then the word has no meaning." Canada + allies must designate Russia a state sponsor of terror. Garry Kasparov + I The Globe and Mail theglobeandmail.com/gift/a2e82d8de…
