There are people who put a lot of effort into their home for Halloween and there is this guy.

Here's a twist on Canadian legend @Alanis's "Ironic" (who was fab when one of us saw her live last month) - in an acoustic version that addresses Trump's #tradewar with Canada and his attempted renaming of Lake Ontario. It's called "Moronic" 🎶 - lyrics: youtu.be/Y6OGKFQBG7s

My statement on Canada-U.S. trade negotiations:

Ontario doesn’t need to “wait until the next election” to speak up. People are angry for a reason. Doug Ford’s Ontario has become a province of scandals, secrecy, privatization, and broken public trust. The Greenbelt scandal.
The Ontario Place/Therme spa deal.
The Science Centre fiasco.
The private jet controversy.
The RCMP investigation. And now attacks on transparency itself. This government weakened public access to information and transparency protections, making it harder for journalists and the public to hold politicians accountable. Democracy depends on openness not secrecy. Meanwhile: 🏥 Public health care is being privatized while ERs close and hallway medicine worsens.
📚 Public education is overcrowded and underfunded.
🏠 Housing is unaffordable while homelessness explodes.
💊 ODSP recipients are being left in poverty.
👩‍⚕️ Nurses, teachers, and frontline workers are burned out and ignored.
🛣 Developers and insiders keep getting special treatment. Ontario deserves leadership that puts people before political insiders, developers, and backroom deals. Enough is enough. Sign the petition. Share it everywhere. Let Ontario be heard. c.org/PQNsYK4xj9

NEW: Students accuse Ford government of “ruining their dreams” at another rally at Queen’s Park. But the minister says he’s not reconsidering OSAP cuts, calling the program unsustainable. Critics fire back: “you know what’s not sustainable? This stupid tunnel under the 401.”

The Netherlands has achieved a remarkable milestone by becoming the first country in the world to completely eliminate stray dogs without euthanasia. The government implemented strict animal welfare laws, mandatory pet registration, heavy fines for abandonment, and nationwide sterilisation drives. Shelters worked closely with rescue teams to ensure every stray dog was rehabilitated and placed in a loving home. Public awareness campaigns encouraged adoption over buying, helping transform the country’s approach to animal care. This compassionate, coordinated effort resulted in every dog finding a safe, permanent home — setting a global benchmark for humane animal welfare.

When the ICE agent is Canadian… 🇨🇦

1/ 🧵 Doug Ford’s legacy as Ontario Premier is a buffet of broken promises, backroom deals, and democracy erosion. Let’s take a stroll through the flaming dumpster fire he’s left behind. 👇 #onpoli #Ontario #DougFordisCORRUPT
