Trans flag Why am I suddenly wading into the contentious dispute between Mike Ramsay and the other WRDSB trustees by bringing up the credit card scandal from when I was a trustee over 20 years ago?…

It's time to tell some hard truths about what is happening to our country and to our democracy. We can't afford to be complacent any longer. My speech from this morning's debate on the Emergencies Act. #cdnpoli

January 31, four days into the occupation, Bergen told two protesters "We are in full support of you guys...Don’t stop. It’s working.” https://t.co/Yq1QX6erKQ

The convoy occupiers want a meeting with government leadership, but their conspiratorial mindset makes that a no-win for Justin Trudeau.
CPC Interim Leader Candice Bergen now wants to the protests to end. “I believe the time has come for you to take down the barricades, stop the disruptive action and come together. The economy you want to see re-opened, is hurting … I believe this is not what you want to do.”

I think it bears constantly repeating: Vaccine mandates and passports are not a restriction on the freedom of the 90% of the population that is vaccinated. The 10% that is unvaccinated are free to remain so, albeit with consequences.

With fear in my heart,I dropped my 4yo off at JK today having full confidence in his teachers but less so in the MoE and MoH policies for schools. Since the holiday my 1 yo was exposed to 3 covid cases at daycare (she isolated) and my 2yo nephew is currently covid+. This is hard.

What is irony? This guy accusing a trustee of bullying a woman and then siccing his 56K followers on (mostly) women he disagrees with.

This is a terrible take. All I see in this graph is that the people tweeting it as some sort of triumph have completely lost their humanity.
