"Even if everybody who voted Green had heeded Eby’s warnings on the campaign trail about vote-splitting and voted NDP instead, the Conservatives would still have won a majority government with a nine-seat margin." @macleodandrew.bsky.social writes. #BCPoli thetyee.ca/News/2026/10...

Mark Carney might be the most popular politician in all of Canada right now - but using that popularity to ram-through highly controversial changes is not only arrogant, I think it's short-sighted if he's actually looking to build something durable.

Regular reminder that when you go to things while sick, you are giving those germs to people with autoimmune disorders, you’re passing them to someone’s newborn, to someone’s elderly parents. It’s “just a cold” to you but it can and does severely impact countless people.

Fun fact: There are 443 municipalities in Ontario that are holding elections today, in addition to Toronto

After letting a few private career colleges rip off the OSAP system with impunity, the Ford govt used the scam as an excuse to cut OSAP grants for all students, accusing them of wasting money on “basket weaving courses” & “fancy watches & cologne” www.thestar.com/opinion/cont... #onpoli

Australians are buying health products and services online faster than our regulators can keep up: commercial telehealth, weight-loss prescribing and now largely unregulated injectables.

Colonialism never ended.
