The government will 100% subsidize car ownerships for the hundreds of thousands of suburban households in this province before even coming within a mile of any other options. I hate living in a world gaslight into a mental forest fire everyday on what “affordability” is. Goddamn it’s all so stupid #ottawa #onpoli #cdnpoli
I can’t wait to hear the pretzel justification bullshit on how Tewin is still a “feasible” project, tho given the estimated 1/2 billion dollars just to run water infrastructure into the middle of nowhere how anyone thinks is feasible is living in a different universe… anyway, if you think housing is going to be “affordable” in the middle of nowhere with car prices getting jacked… good luck to that irrationality #ottawa #ontario #onpoli
Hammering this for the rest of the campaign. One side of Poilievre's mouth claiming 'I'm not Trump', other side spouting all the Trump and DOGE nonsense
Make no mistake, Cons adore Trump

Ontario’s new environment minister called Greenbelt scandal ‘fake news’—now he’s in charge of protecting it | Canada's National Observer: Climate News
Super cool how while we're all focused on how Trump's tariffs will cost a bunch of jobs, Doug Ford's Ontario continues to destroy the entire post-secondary education sector.
Oh you want to figure out how to bike or walk to get a weeks worth of groceries? $400 seems like a lot until you’re not paying $200 a month on car insurance and this will last you for 10 yrs. We bought a Thule Chariot pre-COVID for like $800 and put thousands of kms on it for transit, fun, groceries, going to the museum, living life and sold it after 5 years with one replaced front wheel. People need to see the options #ottawa #onpoli #ottbike #ontario

@ColinDMello: NEW: Premier Doug Ford: the positive thing is Canada wasn’t on the list.
The premier says it’s “good news” that Canada wasn’t mentioned but cautions it could change.

Just came across this interview yesterday between CNN and Mélanie Joly where she mentions there have been talks between the Prime Minister of Canada and President of Mexico.
Good to see that that discussion is finally happening at the highest levels.
At the end, she is asked whether Canada and the USA are in a Trade War now. She answers yes, of course we are.
It’s not lost on me that it takes more than a message, especially with the way the current mayor has run things. But I don’t think “balanced approaches” have much life left in them given the world. Promising the world and saying all the low taxes and wide roads and blah blah blah can’t have much staying power especially if cars are about to get 25% more expensive #cdnpoli #ottawa #onpoli #ontario
Here’s some #cdnpoli hot takes given its an election and why not - if Pierre loses, its a toss for Ford or Smith as leaders of the federal #conservatives And given the data and polling from #ottawa centre, Joel could mount a decent run for mayor in 2026 if he could get his ground game extended into the suburbs. I dont hold much hope for Ottawa but there’s gotta be someone who can galvanize the burbs with the right message #ontario #onpoli #canada

11 minute interview between CNBC and Doug Ford and there is ALOT to unpack. The stupidity of the US commentators here talking to Doug Ford is just... 
Joe Kernen (sp) called Mark Carney, a former central banker, a “zealot”. A ZEALOT!? 
Because he believes in climate change apparently, or 'climate justice’ as he put it?
Obviously these fools still believe we can just burn down the planet and their investment portfolios will be just fine.
This was after there was sudden mass confusion on the American talking head side when Ford said Canada would get rid of all tariffs if the USA got rid of theres... obviously meaning the reciprocal tariffs Canada has put on, but apparently the talking heads thought he meant the tariffs Trump complains about (which by all accounts have never been applied)... which we should all know is just another smokescreen to Trump's actual intention, which is authoritarian, centralized control and manipulation of the market and thus economy of the United States and, in his hope, the world.
These are the same people who a year ago would have been cheerleading NAFTA/CUSMA... whose very purpose is tariff free trade.
Oh and "Joe" also tries to bait Ford into giving an opinion on Carney winning the election, Ford smartly avoids (as is Canadian political practice) much to Joe's chagrin.
Ford does an OK job overall here but I am saddened at the shot he takes at Mexico on "cheap parts" and talking about a "CUSA” deal without Mexico.
I don't understand Canada and Mexico's reluctance to work together through all this. There is obviously some sort of tension there that is not being communicated with the public of Canada, not sure about Mexico.
Also, if he thinks China is a bigger 'enemy' than the USA, he's fooling himself, but I suspect this is just the message he wants to portray to the Americans to try to get them to see reason.

Well this is fun. Buried in here is a note that both #Gatineau and #Ottawa mayors want voting positions on the NCC board because quality of life is predicated on travel times for people driving a car about all else and you know what will be first on the chopping block. OSEG will be getting a vote basically on all things related to the QED #onpoli #cdnpoli https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/ottawa-gatineau-mayors-pressure-federal-parties-on-struggling-downtown-public-service-1.7496714
In Toronto Library contract negotiations "Key bargaining points were 'safety & security', 'harassment' & 'workplace violence.' … public libraries have been pressed into service as de facto homeless shelters & support service locations. They’ve become hotbeds of people in crisis.
It's #homelessness all the way down."
Trump is about to make the Toronto homelessness crisis worse:

Of the 122 federal ridings in Ontario, SmartVoting says the strategic voting choice in 120 of them is Liberal.
They only refrain from boosting the Libs twice -choosing the NDP in London-Fanshawe and Green in Kitchener Centre. 2 out of 122.
Even in ridings with an NDP incumbent where the Lib came second - like in Windsor West or Hamilton Centre or Kapuskasing - they still say to strategically vote Lib to keep out the Cons.
