Not surprised, sadly. This is #Liberal corruption and turns voters off. This is how the Conservatives win, or even the #NDP if they could get their act together.

"Prime Minister Carney has already scrapped the planned increase to the capital gains inclusion rate, introduced a new tax cut that disproportionately benefits higher earners, and gutted the Canada Revenue Agency."

A day without Trans kids is like a day without sunshine! Thank you to the fabulous team behind making this banner! Toronto's Trans March is not just a celebration—it is a protest, a declaration, & a demand for justice.

In the face of rising hate, Ontario New Democrats will always have your back. We will always fight to ensure that Trans Ontarians are safe, supported, and celebrated! Happy Pride and Happy Trans Pride!

There was a Toronto Star opinion piece by Rosie DiManno titled: "On the NATO scorecard, Donald Trump wins — and our budget loses". It's paywall, but the title says it all.

The article mentions that Trump was upset with Spain [1]. It seems the socialist Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro Sanchez, said the 5% target was "unreasonable" and "counterproductive" [2].

I'm currently having a drink of Spanish wine to celebrate. That someone told Trump (politely) to basically go fuck himself is wonderful.

Of course, cowardly Carney was busy caressing the mighty Orange One.

Alas, given that Jagmeet Singh, NDP candidate for prime minister, rightly said he'd not even invite Trump to the G7 [3], I know we could have counted on him to stand up to Trump. I imagine he and Sanchez would now have been having a laugh together.

Instead, we're stuck with the absolutely wimpy Trump-ass-kisser Carney. God, I hope Canadians wake up someday.

Jagmeet Singh deserved a lot better than he got from Canada considering what he endured.

"Singh told reporters in April that police had advised him in the winter of 2023 that his life could be in danger. They did not tell him who was behind the threat but he said the implication was that it was a foreign government.

He said he stayed in his basement, avoided windows and considered quitting politics over fears about his family’s safety. He decided to carry on but was forced to lead the NDP for a period under police protection.”

I hope Carney brings this up with Modi next week, but now with the tragedy of the air crash…

Global News · Indian agent had Jagmeet Singh under close surveillanceBy Stewart Bell

First Nations leaders like Grand Chief Alvin Fiddler of Nishnawbe Aski Nation are clear: "We’ll be asking for the Minister of Indigenous Affairs, Greg Rickford, to resign."

Rickford is the Minister responsible for upholding the rights of First Nations. But he helped push it through Bill 5 without proper consultation, without consent, and without respect.

Greg Rickford has broken trust. He cannot remain in this role. Add your name: kristynwongtam.ca/rickford-mus #OnPoli #Ontario #Bill5 #NDP

WSIB workers with OCEU 1750 help all injured workers in Ontario. I joined them in solidarity as they rallied today at Queen's Park. Striking workers deserve a fair deal and better working conditions. It's wrong that half of Ontario's long-term injured workers live at risk of poverty. Join me in demanding that the #WSIB Board of Directors agree to minimum staffing levels at cupe.ca/wsib #OnPoli #Ontario #Toronto #ToPoli #NDP #OntarioNDP #TorCen #TorontoCentre
