We're losing our farmland at an unprecedented rate in Ontario.
Yesterday, Bobbi Ann Brady and I were in Halton Hills to talk to their city council about our bill to create a Foodbelt to protect our farmland.
A huge thank you to the Halton Hills council for passing a motion to support our bill.

In his first campaign to lead Ontario, Ford started out as a Trump-style populist. But tariffs changed his view and he is now a consistent thorn in the U.S. president's side.
Who is Doug Ford, the Canadian politician pushing Trump's buttons?

September really confused the garden.
Cold snaps early in the month pushed the burning bush into red way ahead of schedule, and now the late heatwave has the hibiscus blooming like it’s summer all over again.
At least the skies are showing off. 💙
