I wish it made sense but this company, about which the government allegedly had enough concern to send an audit to the OPP two weeks ago, told me it still got $240,000 in taxpayer cash just last month. #ONpoli

Markwayne Mullin: "Reward people for being healthy. Think about this. Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility. If you think about homeowners insurance, if you're within 500 feet of a fire hydrant, your insurance goes down."

Today, Premier Ford suggested expanding the First-Time Homebuyers GST credit to all: "Why don’t we give it to everyone, not just first-time homebuyers, anyone who buys a new home”

I'm surprised the feds & province haven't done this already.
Ontario premier, finance minister disagree on 1st-time homebuyers tax discount | Globalnews.ca
As Ford spoke about affordability measures on Monday, he gently chided the finance minister's policy, suggesting it was too narrow.

This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

A general question related to constantly uttering statements like this: does this particular councillor say this just to be contrarian and appeal to a certain base that doesn’t like anything in life, or are they a legitimately miserable human being who must ensure everyone is as no fun as they are?
Councillor Holyday worries about retail stores that "sell some zany thing that has very little value." He wants to know if council could define a list of what stores can sell.

Staff say they can regulate things like size, noise and property standards, but generally not what stores sell.
