Retirement didn’t end a lifetime commitment to legal work in union-side labour law, human rights, pay equity and universal childcare. Free the hostages NOW!!

“”[Therme] didn’t just stretch the truth, it led the Premier down the garden path and Infrastructure Ontario signed right off on it,” he said.”

I wonder if it’s one of the same companies that sold Doug all those nifty blue licence plates or imaginary beeping Covid bracelets.

How do you think little ol' New Brunswick was running $1bln surpluses? #cdnpoli
Dr. Doug Eyolfson
"This cannot be stated enough. Many provinces have been taking federal health care transfers & not spending all of it on health care (spending much of it on provincial tax cuts), then blaming the federal government for underfunding."

~🧵Do you wonder where the healthcare money went?

"The deputy minister looked at us&stated that since the fed govt had not stipulated how the new money was to be spent — no strings attached — the provincial government had redirected the funds to general revenue to reduce the provincial deficit."
🧵
This news article from Saltwire about how Provinces used the extra Healthcare transfers from the Federal govt, this is telling and this is why people are angry, we know they are redirecting the funds to anything but healthcare, excerpt below:

The rich want everyone to be gig workers, precarious workers. It keeps us desperate, keeps us in line. This model takes highly educated, highly skilled, unionized healthcare professionals and makes them gig workers.

This framing sets you up to believe the rise of nursing agencies was an unintended consequence. Bill 124 was written to benefit agencies, making sure hospitals couldn't compete with them on pay. Hospitals are hiring back their own people from agencies at a premium.

Today marks the 40th anniversary of William Raymond Valentine's appointment as manager of Duke & Duke. Within days of Mr. Valentine's appointment, the Philadelphia-based commodity brokerage firm ceased operations due to catastrophic losses in the frozen concentrated orange juice futures market.

For those who weren’t paying attention, the “Canadian Trucker Convoy” was a destabilization op against 🇨🇦’s federal gov’t, in which many #J6 coup plotters also played a roll. It *happened* to be unleashed just as 🇷🇺 was gearing up for #UkraineInvasion. Here’s Putin asset, Vivek, re-upping the disinfo.

Highly readable, well researched and referenced article about the media shenanigans surrounding coverage of the lab-leak theory.

Why did so many journalists dismiss as a conspiracy the idea Covid leaked from a lab in Wuhan?

Biden has told Israel to be more careful of harming civilians. I think that he has the same opinion that I have. There is no way to destroy Hamas without harming innocent civilians
I don't know that Israel is capable of realizing that right now
With the UN clearly supporting Hamas, the UN is no help

Remarkable that Ontario has experienced potentially the most serious cyberattack in its history and the media has hardly covered the story. The Ontario government has not made a single statement.

Apparently this needs being said and repeated daily. Jewish people are not the Israeli government. Muslim and Palestinian people are not Hamas. Only those of low intellect or moral vacuity blame innocents for the actions of others. You know who you are. Stop it.

This was in exchange for bankrolling Vaughan Working Families, and Ontario Proud. This is in exchange for installing Thuggy in the first place. Italian mob and Russian mob united.

Let's add it up, shall we?

We have handed Cortellucci a bunch of greenbelt land, a highway to increase the value of his land, many MZOs, a hospital to launder money through until it goes private, and York Region Police.

The mafia runs Ontario, turnips.

If you can see this, and you can hear Jews say that we are being targeted with antisemitism worldwide, and you are actually and ally, please RT.

If you’re here to say, “but what about…” and excuse the rampant antisemitism, please show yourself the door.

Merci.

Friday reminder that everyone in Ontario is eligible as of next week for a #flu shot (and you should get the COVID XBB.1.5 vaccine, at the same time or when you’re eligible). Also, mask up indoors. COVID19 infections are severely high in our community, across Canada, and around the world.
