ero.ontario.ca/notice/025-0380 Ford is trying to repeal the endangered species act. The bill is called the "Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act," which is awful on multiple levels. The commenting period on the Environmental Registry ends May 17. Please write something to stop this. He's determined to do his part for extinction events while paving over the Green Belt. #GreenBelt #DougFord #Environment #Ontario #EndangeredSpecies #ecology #extinction

Canada’s top court has turned down Ontario’s request to weigh in on a major challenge to its climate plan brought by a group of young activists

Lawyers for the seven young people have argued Ontario’s 2018 decision to replace its climate target with a weaker one committed the province to dangerously high greenhouse gas levels, in a way that jeopardizes their right to life and forces them to bear the brunt of future climate impacts

@MalcolmNance The removal of ALL #Kentucky bourbon and #Tennessee whiskey from the shelves of ALL Liquor Control Board of Ontario stores has bourbon exporters in Kentucky crying in their beer chasers. They are also big #GOP donors and have certainly called #RandPaul ‘onto the carpet’ over the #tariffs - aka #TrumpTaxes.

Note: LCBO stores are the only places you can buy wine and whiskey in #Ontario. It is the single largest purchaser of wine and whiskey in the WORLD.

Earlier today I was sore from a minor medical procedure I’d had shortly before getting onto public transit.

Thank you to the stranger who offered me his seat on the subway.

It was really nice to be able to sit, rest, and not worry about anyone accidentally bumping into me.

May your kindness be rewarded. 💜
