This is where I’m at. He’s a private citizen, putting a life back together after his service and personal circumstances. Let it go people!

Children who are fed are children who can focus and learn in school.

Children who are fed are children who can grow up to one day care for others in their communities.

One day all of us will need someone to care for us.

Feed the children.

This current state of #ontario health care is a manufactured crisis that was orchestrated by this Govt which pre-dates the pandemic times and its own crisis.
Healthcare is a public service that must be viewed as an intrinsic human right

Can we look to the way ups for ‘efficiencies’ in *their* paycheques please!
How about how procurement is handled? Too many companies overcharge because it’s gov spending.
Leave the hospital staff alone!

Yikes! As a senior nurse, you are gold! (All nurses are important, but experienced nurses bring the young’uns up proper in training!)

Reasonable take.

I don’t know what ford does with the money he’s given for healthcare besides give it to his buddies in private healthcare I’m sure most of it goes to them. I really can’t understand why anyone votes for this corrupt government

Awww. Another Legend gone.
I didn’t realize she was also a devoted care giver to her mom and brother in addition to her career.
The care givers are often silent in the shadows. Rest easy Diane, and thanks for the joy you brought into our homes.

PM Carney on the National School Food Program:

"No child should go to school hungry or sit in a classroom all day wondering where their next meal will come from... Until today, this program was a pilot..so, we're announcing we'll move forward with the funding and legislation to make it permanent."

Ever looked at a statue and thought, "What would happen if we made this masterpiece a little… mischievous?" You’re not alone! Every day, people worldwide are adding a twist to statues, bringing them into the world of "dudeism." Imagine classic sculptures sporting sunglasses or historic figures wielding quirky accessories. It’s not just about fun; these makeovers invite us to reimagine public spaces and remind us that art doesn’t have to be serious.
