Internal documents obtained by the NDP reveal that Metrolinx had prepared a communications plan to inform the public about serious problems with the Scarborough subway tunnel. Instead, someone decided to cover it up toronto.citynews.ca/2025/11/12/s... #onpoli
Documents show months-long fix was needed for Scarborough subway extension tunnel-boring machine
The Ontario NDP released the documents on Wednesday after the party previously filed a freedom of information request.

Looking at the Carney budget that just dropped:
- slashing 40,000 public sector jobs
- watering down Trudeau-era climate promises
- $59 billion in new military spending
- tax writeoffs for big businesses
- cuts to foreign aid

Yeah I can see why a Conservative would want to join the Conservatives

So Carney has cancelled the Digital Services Tax, the tax on planes and luxury yachts, and the tax on empty housing.

Seems telling.

This paragraph sums up the spirit of Mark Carney's Budget.

I'm not sure this has ever happened before. Following the results of yesterday's Yukon election, the NDP is now government or official opposition in Nova Scotia and every jurisdiction west of the Ottawa River.

I lived through the 90s. Hospitals closed. Infrastructure crumbled. Tuition doubled. Public investment in housing ended. User fees increased. I’d rather not do this again.

Less report writing more door knocking. That's what I say!
Li'l scoop at Semafor: A new report endorsed by Biden's former campaign manager, former DCCC chair Cheri Bustos, and other centrist Dems blames the party's broken brand on post-2012 left-wing language and ideas - not just "the groups" but adopted by whole party www.semafor.com/article/10/2...
Left-wing ideas have wrecked Democrats’ brand, new report warns
The center-left group Welcome relied on polling of hundreds of thousands of voters over six months for its findings, shared first with Semafor.

🚨 This is a huge victory for the organised tenant movement after YEARS of organising.

We need to go further, and we’ll keep fighting for more, but the biggest change to renters rights in a generation is worth celebrating.

This wasn’t handed to us from above, we won it💪
The Renters' Rights Bill has been APPROVED by the House of Commons!

This is the final step before the Bill receives Royal Assent, which we expect shortly.

No more amendments, no more debate - renters' rights are coming.

Trump is bad and that's why we must do what he wants.
Trump is bailing out Argentina because the two countries share, as he puts it, a philosophy. Canada isn't Argentina and Mark Carney isn't Milei, but if Carney is being too pliant in his negotiations with Trump, what would it be like with Poilievre in the chair? www.thestar.com/politics/pol...
Bruce Arthur: Donald Trump’s response to Argentina is a warning to Canada
Meanwhile, we sit nervously and hope things work out for us, Bruce Arthur writes.
