Cleveland-Cliffs’ CEO just admitted it: they bought Stelco in bad faith to kill Canadian competition, and Ontario steelworkers are paying with their futures.
Ontario can’t stand on the sidelines. Ford and Carney must bring Stelco under public ownership and protect these jobs.

We’re back at Queen’s Park.
Doug Ford took 21 weeks off from the legislature. I spent that time in communities from Scarborough to Thunder Bay, and I heard one thing loud and clear: life is getting too expensive.
Now Ford has a choice. He can show up for the people of Ontario, or keep helping himself and his insiders. We’re here to lower your costs and put money back in your pocket.

While largely unremarkable and unsurprising ,the electoral outcomes of municipal elections in Canada confirm my fundamental belief that we have a huge democratic asset. Common sense and decency .

Arsenal just lost to Fleetwood Town in the EFL Cup.
Arsenal’s roster: $1.5 BILLION
Fleetwood Town’s roster: $3 million
Fleetwood is currently 18th in the 4th level of English soccer.
Possibly the biggest upset in English soccer history.

10 RN positions eliminated at a Northern Ontario hospital. The question isn’t just who lost their job. What happens to the nurses who remain? What happens to patient safety? We cannot keep asking nurses to do more with less.

Following the live brodcast last night on election organized by @bpellerin here are my 10 take-aways from Ottawa election.
1. This was a resounding victory for Mark Sutcliffe and an honourable defeat for Jeff Leiper. It's a much stronger Sutcliffe Council now.
2. Incumbency is king. Almost everyone was re-elected to Council. Once you win a seat on Ottawa Council, you can expect to keep it for a long time...perhaps even as long as you like.
3. Jeff Leiper's 33.9% puts him in the company of Alex Munter and Catherine McKenney. Is there an electoral ceiling for progressive mayoral candidates?
4. Don't blame Neil Saravanamuttoo. His 11% complicated Leiper's path, but vote-splitting alone doesn't explain Sutcliffe's victory.
5. What happened to Alex Lawson? Summer polling suggested a surge. Sept and Oct polls said something else. He finished fourth with 7.56%. He still has political future ahead.
6. Erin Coffin beat the odds. She unseated Allan Hubley, Ottawa's longest-serving incumbent. The only sitting councillor to lose. Quite an achievement.
7. Sean Devine held the line. Despite Tim Tierney and David Brown backing his challenger, Devine won comfortably.
8. Where were the voters? Turnout fell from 43.8% to 36.21%. Does a largely predictable election discourage participation?
9. The status quo prevailed. Mark Sutcliffe has four more years and an almost unchanged Council. Will his second term deliver more than business as usual?
10. If people want change on Ottawa Council, they have to start organizing now for 2030, not in the summer of 2029.

I created this photo using recent research so it relaxes your brain when you pause to look at the details. I'd so love to hear which is your favourite item in this collection (mine are the striped curlew feathers).
As I'm sometimes too unwell to post here & the algorithm punishes creators who don't post every day, it would help so much if you could maybe RT my photo. Many thanks 🌿

On behalf of the Government and people of Barbados, I extend warm congratulations to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on 47 years of Independence.
As one of our closest neighbours and dearest friends, your celebration holds a special place in our hearts. Generations of family, friendship and trade have bound our nations together, and the waters between us continue to connect our people and our futures.
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines remains a strong and essential link in our Caribbean chain. Your proud heritage, the courage and creativity of your people, and your commitment to regional solidarity have enriched our Caribbean civilisation.
As your anthem declares, “Our faith will see us through.” May that faith continue to inspire your journey.
Happy Independence, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Barbados celebrates with you, today and always.

I had to check but yes this is their actual report which assesses that the Chinese and Russian threats to their territory are greater than the North Korean threat etc. Those kids need to work on their posture

Mark Sutcliffe wins Ottawa mayoralty with 44% of the vote in a 36% voter turnout election: clearly not a galvanizing election. Only Councillor upset was in Kanata South: Erin Coffin defeats incumbent Allen Hubley. Election takeaway: women form majority (13 to 12) on City Council.
