Two years ago, the RCMP launched a criminal investigation into Doug Ford’s Greenbelt Grab.

Two years later, it’s déjà vu — Labour Minister David Piccini admits he personally picked which of his friends got millions from the Skills Development Fund.

NONE of this devastation and death is justifiable. The greed of rich white dictators is unfathomable. The desire to torture and kill innocent adults and children is the daily work of WAR CRIMINALS. We need to work on destroying the criminals - NOT the people!

Poilivere has 0 skills to offer Canadians. He is a career politician who sucks up our tax dollars and gives nothing back. He shouts and bitches and calls our country broke. He has outworn his welcome. Pack up P and head to Mar A Lago.

You work hard for every dollar you earn. You pay your taxes, but expect they’ll go toward the services & infrastructure we all rely on every day. And then you find out your money’s gone into Doug Ford’s slush fund to hand out to his friends. This corrupt government has to go.
