As someone who has voted NDP in the past & who would consider doing so again with the right leader/platform, they better do Canada & Canadians right on the upcoming budget vote or they can kiss any potential future goodwill goodbye. We are at economic war with the US & they need to act accordingly.

If the NDP puts themselves and their purity tests first, and votes against the budget. I will campaign extra hard for the Liberals and do everything I can to bury the NDP.

Mark Carney's Liberals are exactly what Canada needs at this time.

(And I'm a former NDP member).

Ontario's going to have a deep, dark reckoning with its blithe embrace of Doug Ford as premier for decades to come.

The toxic mess his government will leave behind on pretty much every front will be more than daunting.

'I was crazy, and everything turned out good!'

When I lived in Holland the Dutch people were very kind to me because I was a Canadian. They had many stories about how Canadian soldiers fought for their freedom.

They were shocked this is not common knowledge for us.

‼️ DOUG FORD’s Ontario - “…the number of people who are chronically homeless doubled between 2022 and 2024. Its long-term freeze on social assistance rates means that people receiving Ontario Works (OW) can no longer afford to rent even a room.” #dougfordfailedontario #onpoli #homelessness
