Reminder the Greatest Canadian isn't a hockey player, nor musician or author, though many were contenders

The Greatest Canadian is Tommy Douglas
Why you may ask
Simple answer #Healthcare

picture of Tommy Douglas with quote
"I came to believe that health services ought not to have a price tag on them, and that people should be able to get whatever health service required irrespective of their individual capacity to pay"

The paedophile ex-lead singer of Lostprophets has been killed in prison, after getting arrested in 2013.

People knew of parts of his terrible behaviour years earlier, but the police refused to investigate tips from predominantly women and teenage girls.

#cdnpoli #cdnpolitics A PM must represent all Canadians by speaking and acting ONLY in the best interests of our entire population. Poilievre is not fit to be PM as he cannot do that, so he is employing the #populistagenda of dividing and conquering Canadians in a failing attempt to gain power.

Unbearably violent images from Downtown Chicago where a classical music concert was played on the Chicago River. This is too elegant and magical to be seen.

While Canadians in Conservative controlled provinces are wondering why their premiers don't seem to care about #healthcare
It's because they really don't care about healthcare as taught to them by by Harper
Cons have been going after our Canadian healthcare since the 90s
