Doug Ford says only “radical environmentalists” oppose Bill 5. But wanting science-based protections for endangered species isn’t radical. Ford's labelling misidentifies genuine concerns to skirt accountability. I voted no on Bill 5 and will continue to unless key amendments are made.

Ontario Liberal MPP Ted Hsu has filed over 4000 amendments to stop Bill 5 - one of the Ford government’s most dangerous & anti-democratic bills.
This is about your clean water, air, and community. We will keep fighting until this government kills Bill 5 & gets it right. #onpoli

If you’re a Canadian who would like to voice your consternation toward America, record yourself and share it on your socials (except for X – we don’t use that). Use #PUCKOFF so we can find it and if you’re angry enough we may put you on the show!

One of the arguments against, which we hear in other cities, is that affordable housing will attract people from other cities needing affordable. sarnianewstoday.ca/sarnia/news/...

Agreed. You do not platform malicious notions on legitimate media when so much disinformation is already pushing said notions online. As Brexit and MAGA prove, it is a cancer. It will spread. The fascist right is following Goebbels' recipe to a tee, and very effectively. We must fight back.

What makes riding a bike less safe is drivers. Let me say that again "RIDING A BIKE IS MADE UNSAFE BY DRIVERS" When talking affordability a bike share monthly pass is $20 a month with other options available like the Pedal Pass compared to $123.20 for adults (through presto).
They need councillors who boost the safety and affordability advantages of public transit like this 👇, even when they're not justifying an attempt to sabotage the implementation of #HamOnt 's cycling master plan.
