“Canadians aren’t stupid. We see Galen Weston getting richer and richer as grocery costs skyrocket. We know we’re being ripped off.” NDP leader Avi Lewis is calling for a public grocery option across Canada and an end to grocery store monopolies. cultmtl.com/2026/11/canada-n…

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves: do what’s right, not what’s easy @SylviaJonesMPP. Cancer patients deserve every possible chance at treatment that could save their lives. Every excuse for denying that chance raises serious questions about this government’s priorities. #onpoli

The 48-year-old woman who helped two boys badly beat a 59-year-old cadet supervisor has been identified in a breaking story by reporter Ling Hui of the Toronto Sun. The name of the woman is Estela Quintanilla of Hamilton. The altercation arose when a 12-year-old male and his 11-year-old male friend assaulted two cadets who were handing out poppies for Remembrance Day with an air horn. The cadets told their supervisor what had happened and he followed the aggressors into a restaurant to talk to them. Quintanilla, who was a bystander, intervened in the discussion by pushing the victim to the ground, whereupon the twelve-year-old male stomped on the victim's head. The cadet supervisor is badly injured. Hamilton Police have described the injuries as, "Life altering," which seems to be the new substitute for life threatening. The eleven-year-old wasn't charged for his part in it. Our legal system seems to be hell-bent on facilitating violent offenders. This Remembrance Day, remember all of the Canadian men who fought and died so that the rest of us could life in an anarcho-tyranny.

A government’s budget shows you what it values. Doug Ford has found money for a billion-dollar early booze rollout, private career college spending, Ontario Place, and other costly choices. Meanwhile, people are still waiting for the services and support they actually need. That’s the problem with this Fall Economic Statement: the priorities are still backwards. #onpoli @stephaniebowman

Hallway medicine, EMS stretcher medicine, and chair medicine remains a serious problem in Ontario ERs. Premier Ford promised to eliminate it. Instead it exploded under his leadership. Hospital underfunding remains a serious problem. By @AidanChamandy thetrillium.ca/news/health/o…

The music industry operates as a foundational piece of Ontario’s wider arts and culture sector, which injects $26 billion to $27 billion annually into Ontario's GDP.

😒 Gimme a break! This guy is laughing all the way to the "bank." The price of food and household supplies is freaking out of control and people are starving.

Sophomore album ‘Kunlé – The Journey’ is deeply personal and built upon reflections collected over many years on his self-discovery journey. ‘Àjà – Whirlwind’ is a big opening number, using strings, keys, and layered vocals to elevate a global roots sound to an orchestral level.
