We need to take to the streets and protest on a large scale. Online complaints to each other and to Ford aren’t working. Need a massive protest. He is barely keeping healthcare alive - undermining it only to privatize. Public schools will be next. People need to know Folksy Ford isn’t their buddy.

If the strategy is to drive the public health care system into the ground to help open it up to privatization, take a bow Mr. Premier, its working. Close to $92 billion this year on health care and you can't get it right! Shameful.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

The thing about the skeleton and the luge is that you have to learn whether you would be good at the skeleton or the luge, and I don't know how we don't hear about more people dying from finding out if they were good at the skeleton or the luge.

The way we farm can either accelerate climate change or help solve it. Industrial agriculture degrades soil and emits carbon. But smart agriculture? It regenerates land, stores carbon, and secures food supplies. Here’s how these three practices lead the way. 👇
