My 200$ Government of Ontario bribery cheque arrived, and I had a great conversion with the teller about how we both wished the government had spent the 3B$ on stuff we liked. Like education and healthcare

Do you know if you can buy an OC transpo daypass with a credit card when you get on the bus?

The willingness to quash enshrined charter rights so nilly-willy should be troubling to everyone.

Also, if you know of any trans-positive organizing occurring, share below. I'd love positive news.
Premier Danielle Smith willing to use the notwithstanding clause on Alberta’s trans health bill | Globalnews.ca
The health bill is the first of a trio that's passed debate in the legislature that will affect transgender youth and adults in the province.

Tonight was the OSTA (Ottawa Student Transportation) board meeting. The elimination of the @OCtranspo youth rates will cost the local school boards millions.

Public education funding shouldn't be used to fix holes in the city transportation budget, those funds are necessary for supporting students

Given the increased volatility of the US as a major trading partner and the need to diversify, what do people think the pros and cons of having Canada join the European Union would be?

I was comparing memories of winter with a friend of mine. We both remember more snow by this time of year.

I was born at 355 ppm CO2 vs 424 at the same time this year - a 19.36% increase in atmospheric CO2.

Gee. Wonder why there's no snow? 🫠
