Again, can we talk to experts? Can we talk to real people to hear if the budget will help them? Can we stop talking to old white guys who only care about business & shareholders? Govt is about helping people, it's not a business. This isn't a game. #cdnpoli

Daulton Varsho, again.

Two tonight, four in six games. #BlueJays

During the European Council's special meeting, I informed EU leaders of another Russian terrorist attack on our city of Chernihiv. And this is happening every day. This reflects our current key need – the need for air defense.

Unfortunately, in Ukraine and our part of Europe, we…

Woo hoo! The #BlueJays are on a streak and leading the #Yankees 4 to 1 in the B7th. Hoping for a 🧹sweep! Varsho's bat is hot, Gausman is back, and the team is clicking. #TOTHECORE

This is the right plan for Canada. Fairness for every generation. Including on taxes. Capital gains change will affect me. But I accept it for the greater good in our country so we can get done what's needed on housing, school food, etc. and remember the 1% are louder than…

Fun fact: under Brian Mulroney's PCs in the 1980s the capital gains inclusion rate was hiked from 50% to 75% -- and the overall combined corporate rate was in the low-40s versus the current rate of 26.5%.

And yet, businesses were formed. They took risks. Imagine that.

Here's what every Canadian should know.

If the federal government is running a deficit, money is flowing into your pocket. If the federal government is balancing the budget or running a surplus, the money in your pocket is going down. It really is that simple.

There are no…

Gausman makes the wise decision to be careful with Giancarlo Stanton, who is both red-hot and has his number, and walks him to load the bases for Torres, who he strikes out on three pitches to end top1. #Bluejays

Special thank you to my 9 new followers from Canada, and more last week. fedica.com/!marlawd

Our polling showed a major shift to favouring more active government and taxing the wealthy. This was much stronger amongst under 40 voters where LPC were struggling. CPC can't go there . Could be a game changer.

Repeat after me:

This is very simple!

“The change will not apply to any capital gains from the sale of a primary residence. Investment income earned in an RRSP or TFSA, including capital gains, also will not be taxed.”

#Unifor recognizes the federal government for delivering a budget that pushes social progress and jobs in the face of economic inequities, relentless affordability pressures and stubbornly high interest rates. #Budget2024 #cdnpoli unifor.org/news/all-news/…

Handshakes and hugs as Nate Pearson heads off the field before batting practice begins. Justin Turner goes in with Danny Jansen looking on and Ernie Clement on his way.

#Bluejays know how well he’s done and that this is one of the crappy parts of the game. He’ll be back soon.

That's 4 straight wins for the surging Toronto Blue Jays!

Now this is a baseball series I can enjoy! #BlueJays take the series from the #Yankees with tonight’s terrific 5-4 win. Let’s hope they get the sweep. #TOTHECORE

Yikes! Come on Jordan, please settle in quickly. #BlueJays

Hot take: If you're going to be a champion for workers, you might want to actually talk to them first.
