Pierre #Poilievre and Canada’s conservative premiers are peddling nonsense to people who want all the privilege and none of the responsibilities.

Here is Stephen Lecce politicizing #Ontario education ...

"We progressive Conservatives REDUCED the fuel tax by 10 cents/litre.
The Liberals will INCREASE the carbon tax by 23%. As if it isn't expensive enough to live."
👉 It appears that the Ontario Minister of Education doesn’t know how to convert percentages to cents-a-litre.
Narrator: It’s 3 cents a litre.

It also appears that clean air, both inside & outside the classroom, is not #DougFord's agenda.

The International Monetary Fund predicts that #Canada's economy will be the third best performing of advanced countries, in 2024.

"We'll never touch the Greenbelt"

"We'd never privatize health care"

“We will never, ever sell the LCBO” said Premier Ford today.

No one will be surprised when they hear #DougFord is planning to sell off the $2.5 billion a year liquor & wine business to his donors. 🙄

Reminder: LCBO employees were among the public service workers impacted by Ford's unconstitutional wage Bill 124. Currently profits from LCBO stores help fund public services in #Ontario.

Former PM Stephen Harper is very well funded and is aggressively advancing his plans to be the global captain of conservatism.

As head of the right wing IDU, "he quite frankly, couldn’t give a shit what people in #Canada think. He’s not speaking to that audience."

Moe is just taggin' along.

@Snowshadow

"Former PM Stephen Harper has invited his Saskatchewan puppet, Scott Moe, to India where he's arranged for Premier Moe to sit in front of Canadian & Indian national flags.
Back home Scott Moe daily foments hate toward our Prime Minister, but in India he wraps himself in the 🇨🇦 flag."

😯 The so-called "Freedom" Convoy is planning a return visit to #Ottawa this Family Day weekend, Feb 16-19

"It's all gonna be fun and playful, and there'll be speeches and music. We don't expect anything too crazy, to be honest..just a really celebratory energy in the crowd." said one of the organizers.

Ottawa police say they have 'robust plan' to deal with the planned weekend gathering.

Canadian political cartoonist, Michael deAdder has requested that his Washington Post cartoons be widely circulated after his recent dismissal.

Looks like Canadian cartoonist Michael deAdder cut too close to the bone for American conservatives as well. He has been let go from the Washington Post.

👀 Canada's premier political cartoonist Michael deAdder is pushing back..

"I'm sick of these tactics. I see journalists [& cartoonists] bullied by the right. Conservatives are bullying their way into power."

"When I draw a #Conservative cartoon you don't realize that I've drawn almost the same number of Liberal cartoons. I've probably drawn more Liberal than Conservative because they are in power. You just see the Conservative cartoons and cry unfair."

@Travler Thank you!
DeAdder has requested that his WP cartoons be widely circulated. So here we go..

@Snowshadow Right?! In my experience, TPH will politely hand you a mask and watch you put it on before you enter their clinics. Plus the nurses are pros at the jab.

For anyone 12 years of age or older who wants to get the #Novavax XBB.1.5 vaccine - there are available appts with #Toronto Public Health on Jan. 25, Jan 30, Jan 31 & Feb 01.
Everyone is required to wear a mask in TPH clinics.

A colourful thread-wrapped & embroidered temari ball is given as a token of love and good luck to family and friends.

"Canadians cannot afford Trudeau's carbon tax. It's time to axe the tax and bring home lower prices"

"The best defence against #COVID19 continues to be a multi-layered approach involving vaccination, staying home when unwell, **MASKING WHEN IN CROWDED INDOOR SPACES**, and hand washing,” says Dr.Bonnie Henry

🤔 Doesn't a school classroom qualify as a crowded indoor space???

Remember:

- Covid is the leading cause of death by infection
- Covid is a blood vessel disease, not flu
- Covid causes new onset autoimmune disease
- Vaccines don't prevent covid
- Covid isn't seasonal
- Long covid can come months after covid

None of this is front page news.

Time to remember the best voting advice:

Voting isn't marriage, it's public transport. You're not waiting for "the one" who's absolutely perfect; you're getting the bus, and if there isn't one going directly to your 'destination', you don't stay home and not travel -- you chose the one that's going closest.
