Reminder: Police do not stop crime, they show up afterwards & take notes on what happened. Real crime prevention starts with community investment, education, housing, healthcare & providing opportunities for those with the least. Let's fund that instead.
@CP24
Remember when Ontario owned the 407 & then the conservative government sold it for pennies to "balance the budget" for 1 year? Now it generates billions every year that could have been used for housing, hospitals & schools.
Conservatives are terrible money managers.
I just got back from the grocery store. EVERY SINGLE PERSON WAS WEARING A MASK. Bylaws work! Responsible leadership is key! Well done KW!

Again,
No sick days
No minimum wage increase
No free dental care
No free pharma care
No free day care
No basic income
No money to repair schools
No up to date sex ed
No T&R curriculum
No environmental plan
Yes expanded booze sales
...oh what could have been.
#ForThePeople
In 10 years this photo will be in textbooks illustrating the horrendous state of racism in Canada.
Conservatives will of course claim they were always against the ban.

@CP24
Remember when Ontario used to own this highway until those “fiscally responsible” Conservatives sold it for pennies?
Now it generates billions of dollars a year for a foreign company instead of billions a year for Ontario hospitals, schools, housing etc. 🤦♂️
@CP24
The only question that remains is will the cops who knowingly lied through their teeth, under oath, in an attempt to send an innocent man to prison, face any consequences? I'm guessing not.
@ConSelfOwns
1) Lois
2) it’s Superman’s son who is Bisexual, not Superman.
3) they believe he can be the son of an alien & human, fly, knock planets out of orbit with his strength & have heat vision, but he can’t be bi? That’s too unbelievable for them?

@nationalpost
Freedom of expression extends to protect you from the persecution of the government. A professional association, & their terms & conditions of accreditation, are not Charter issues.
Peterson is free to leave the College at anytime & express himself beyond their conditions. 🤦♂️
@OhNoSheTwitnt
David Hogg is like the fucking Daniel Day Lewis of crisis actors, taking the SATs, applying to colleges, really throwing himself into the role.
@CTVNews
And the sad thing is, this was literally foreseen by everyone. Yet those in power refused to listen to the clear advise from the experts and act. The economy suffered. And thousands were needlessly sickened or died.
@CTVNews
Of course he can't, no one can.
Call me a radical commie, but I think that if you a work full time job, you should be able to afford food, utilities, clothing, rent, a transit pass & have a little bit left over for yourself. It's time for a living wage.
@goldengateblond
In Canada the maximum I have ever waited to vote is 5 minutes. The wait is the same in large metropolitan cities like Toronto or Montreal, as it is in the most remote northern communities. 5 minutes.
@PierrePoilievre
It’s hilarious that a guy who has never had a job in his life, has $9 million in the bank, is a landlord, lives in a mansion, has a driver, several butlers, & a personal chef claims he’s not an elite.
It’s sad that people believe him.
@AndySpecht
@AP
Teachers sacrificed their lives to protect the children, the police did not. Remember that the next time your town's/city's budget comes up for debate.
@CTVNews
While working people lose their jobs it's important to note that the BCE CEO made $13.5 million & the Bell Media President made $4.8 million last year. Just in case you're wondering where the money goes.
@CTVNews
Conservatives: “we’re not getting the vaccine until 2025! Canada is back of the line! Trudeau failed!”
Also Conservatives: “Trudeau paid to get the vaccines sooner & now we number one in the world in 1st dosage percentage, Trudeau failed!”
@CP24
Remember when Ontario owned this highway that generates billions of dollars a year that could be used to fund all kinds of really good things but instead the Cons sold it for penny’s for some reason? Good times.
@fordnation
Things that help families:
1) higher minimum wage
2) basic income
3) more WSIB support
4) free daycare
5) free pharma care
6) free dental care
All things you either cut, or refuse to deliver.
Things that don't help families:
1) $106 000 signs

@LaurenKGurley
And before that workers just walked into the bosses/owners office and said “we’re gonna work this long, and for this much or we’re gonna burn the fucking factory down.”
@CP24
Again, all of this could have been avoided. But Ontario decided to elect a man with no experience, no education, no interest in governing, and literally no platform over two highly qualified, smart women.

@BrooklinWR
A couple hundred marched against basic human rights on Wednesday, and now this. Hate and bigotry is alive and well in our region.
The need to continue to fight back has never been greater.
Hey Kitchener Centre voters who are torn between the NDP & the Greens. A reminder that the Greens will not achieve official party status. Which means no committees & no question period time. If you’re looking for someone who can make actual change, vote

Any plan that doesn't include:
mandatory masking
mandatory vaccines for all staff and students (over 12)
max 15 per class
massive ventilation improvements in all schools
covid screening and tracing
Is a terrible plan. Locked down again by November?
@CP24
We know what it takes to open schools safely. Masking, vaccine mandates, improved ventilation, and smaller class sizes (max 15). We’ve know this for 2 years now. We just have a government that refuses to do it.
@Arc_Light
@AndrewScheer
Our system is actually more than able to handle the current amount of migrants. We've handled the same numbers or higher in the past, and we're handling it again today. The "crisis" has mostly been manufactured to stoke anti-immigrant fears by the right.
@PierrePoilievre
That has never been in either the Liberals or NDPs platform.
Truth, facts, evidence no longer matter to conservatives. What happened to them? Sad & scary stuff.
@CP24
Remember, it’s very simple. You have the right to not be vaccinated. But you do not have the right to go to stores, school, concerts, work etc. and be a danger to others. It’s not complicated. Vaccine passports in Canada now!
@nationalpost
Conservatives definitely need to ask themselves why racists, bigots, misogynists, transphobes, white supremacists, neo-Nazis, anti-science nuts, & conspiracy theorists feel so welcome in their party.
@CP24
Again: Police do not stop crime, they show up afterwards & take notes on what happened. Real crime prevention starts with community investment, education, housing, healthcare & providing opportunities for those with the least. More Police does not equal less crime.
@CP24
This cop was willing to do this to the President of an NBA team that just won the championship with thousands of people watching, imagine what he would do to a Black man in the street with no one around.
@CBCNews
I mean, the provinces are the ones who implemented the majority of the vaccine mandates, but these people aren't the brightest group, that much is clear.
@joe_warmington
For anyone still wondering what "defund the police" means, it means instead of this & the thousands of operations like this that happen every year in Ontario. We spend the money on things like housing, education & healthcare. Clear now?
@TorontoStar
Yes Trudeau wasn't "perfect", but so we're clear he was responsible for the Charter of Rights & Freedoms, repatriating the constitution, keeping Quebec in Canada, official multiculturalism, bilingualism, legalizing homosexuality, abortion & contraception, ended the death penalty.
@nationalpost
1) A lot of these "teens" pay rent, work, and help support their families both financially and with childcare.
2) Postmedia applied for $20.3 million in government subsidies this year.
3) Relax, this isn't a big issue.
@brianlilley
Basic, simple, effective public health measures that keep everyone safe during a global, deadly, pandemic don't conflict with the charter. 🤦♂️
@CP24
Once again, it’s not radical to think that if you work full time you should be able to afford rent, food, clothing, a cellphone & a bus pass, with a little money left over for yourself. Conservatives seem to think so however.
@CTVNews
I think we can all agree that this wasn’t a great plan. We know the solutions:
Strict rent controls
Massive investments in affordable & public housing
Limits on how many homes corporations & the super rich can own
Housing as a right
Living wage
@CBCNews
Who would vote for a party that will cut services to everyone? That extra 300 bucks in your pocket isn't gonna do much for that $3000 medical procedure that used to be covered.
@PierrePoilievre
We know how to prevent crime. It’s starts with investments in people & our communities including:
Housing as a right
Living wage
Truly universal healthcare
Free post secondary
Providing opportunities to those with the least
None of which you support. So maybe this one out.
@CP24
I doubt police actually "threw her off the balcony". But I guarantee if someone with proper training on how to deal with people who are having a mental health crisis showed up, she would still be alive right now.
@PierrePoilievre
Here’s what you’re “standing with”.
Also they weren’t “truckers”. 90% of truckers were vaccinated & doing their jobs. Even the trucking industry denouncing this group making it clear they didn’t represent actual truckers.
@FrancineKitchen
@CTVNews
A few main things:
1) clearly denounce the vicious Israeli occupation of Palestine & the brutal murder of unarmed men, women, and children.
2) stop selling weapons to Israel
3) stop purchasing goods from Israel
@CanadianPolling
Facts about the death penalty:
It's not a deterrent
It's more expensive than life in prison
It's racist
It's prone to mistakes
It's about revenge not justice
I wonder if knowing these facts would change peoples opinions.
@CTVNews
Conservatives: "But I heard we're not getting vaccines until 2025, we're at the back of the line! Also COVID is fake news and I don't want the vaccine anyway"!
@CP24
Ford refused to keep schools safe. Schools could be opened if he:
Capped classes at 15
Hired more teachers & EAs
Invested in education instead of cutting over $1.6 this year
Prioritized educator vaccines
Improved classroom ventilation
listened to experts & the science
@CP24
Almost everyone I know who has COVID (rapid test) won’t be counted because they could not take a PCR test. But as the old saying goes, “there’s no COVID if you don’t test for it” 🤷♂️
@PierrePoilievre
So are you proposing:
Massive investments in quality public healthcare?
Housing as right?
A living wage & UBI?
We know these are the solutions. Is this what you're proposing? I doubt it.
@CP24
We all know that the unvaccinated are the greatest threat to a full societal & economic recovery. They are also a huge danger to the rest of us. Hopefully these numbers will convince those still on the fence to get vaxxed.

The whole idea that all “individuals must do their part to stop climate change” is complete BS! Our planet is on fire because of corporate greed.
