The purpose of austerity budgets is always to transfer public wealth into private hands. And in a country like Canada that always means a transfer to the same handful of domestic oligarchs and resource extraction multinationals.

At the end of the day I'm not sure how much difference it makes. But it is striking to put out a budget that axes a luxury tax on yachts and adds a co-pay for refugee claimants accessing drugs and dental care.

Ending the emissions cap, cutting tens of thousands of public sector jobs, but funding AI with $925 million. This is a joke

Today’s Halloween… but the real horror is Carney’s cuts to public services. After everything we’ve been through since COVID-19, our public services are stretched to the limit. Cutting support for families, veterans, and seniors now isn’t “fiscal responsibility” — it’s reckless.

If people actually understood how willing our government is to go to war with its own people simply for demanding equal rights, I think a lot more of us would be ready for war.

If only @toronto.ca would prioritize accelerating work on #TTC and #BikeTO projects as they have done with the Gardiner. Time to get their priorities straight! #TOpoli
Great news – following the weekend closure, the Gardiner Expressway has reopened with three lanes in both directions from Dufferin to Strachan. 🎉

Ironically, what would make intersections the safest...
"Drivers must dismount the vehicle and push it through the intersection."
But for some reason, that's not a requirement.

"Canada Post is on track to lose money" Hum. Duh. It cost less than a toonie to send a letter across Canada.
"Canada Post is a service and not a business" was common knowledge until late stage capitalism brain rotted most people into think if it ain't making money for shareholders, it's failing.

The government is reducing service standards and Canada Post’s biggest advantage: its nationwide network.
This plan is about cutting back the postal service instead of investing to give it new revenue tools through things like postal banking. It’s shameful.
