There is an interesting argument in the below thread. My main thought is this: you should not join any political party for leadership unless you plan to support the party if your candidate loses. If you are just there for the one candidate and otherwise you will not support the party, then you don’t belong. #onpoli #cdnpoli
It’s really not a good look that many conservatives, and even far right influencers, on this platform are fawning over one particular candidate in the @OntLiberal race. Even more problematic, many claim to be joining the party to support said candidate. Let me be clear: we will only rebuild @OntLiberal through attracting tens of thousands of new members to our party — including new members from different political parties with conflicting views because that’s how you build a big tent and genuinely rebuild a party in clear need of renewal. Yet new members to our party must endorse basic liberal/Liberal values. Unfortunately, many of these supposed new members don’t meet this basic test — and I find this deeply concerning. #cdnpoli #onpoli

My brother Harry and I grew up with He-Man, and Masters of the Universe was pitch perfect for us (and my kids).

Saddened by the tragic loss of Toronto Police Service Constable Marc Pinizzotto and OPP Constable Tarun Bali this week. Two dedicated officers who died in the line of duty. Two heartbreaking losses for their colleagues and loved ones. My condolences to the families, friends, and fellow officers of Constable Pinizzotto and Constable Bali during this incredibly difficult time. I honour their service to their communities and to Ontario.

Peanut butter, bread, toilet paper, pasta sauce, yogourt, cereal - these are all items that you can find for 20% off or more on a regular basis. Do you want to know one of the causes of grocery inflation? Items like this that are intentionally overpriced. #cdnpoli #onpoli

"From my Māori perspective, a key point is that there was always a continuous Jewish presence in the land; they kept the fires burning, and that is what indigeneity looks like to us" Dr. Sheree Trotter is an indigenous scholar and activist. She spoke at a first-of-its-kind conference called Building Indigenous‑Jewish Friendship, held in Toronto in conjunction with the annual Walk with Israel march. She called Israel, "the most successful land‑back project, the greatest decolonization project." “Increasingly, indigenous identity is being treated as a metaphor, a branding exercise, a political strategy. Indigeneity isn’t any of that; it is a lived reality rooted in specific people and place.” Karen Restoule, an Ojibwe from Dokis First Nation, who is director of Indigenous affairs at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, spoke at the conference, too. Why do Western activists insist they know more about indigeneity than indigenous people themselves?

The CUSMA review next month is a crucial part of addressing the trade uncertainty affecting workers across ONT & CA. The headline-seeking Doug Ford went to Washington to peddle a "little brochure". Was Ford's trip really worth a flight on a taxpayer funded OPP jet? #onpoli

Donald Trump told Israel to not retaliate against Iran… then the US retaliated against Iran within 24 hours. It’s a farce.

New: Police are investigating ~something~ or ~someone~ connected to Ontario’s Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility, @Thetrilliumca has learned — potentially sparked by an internal audit into that entity. That's all we know, because the government is refusing to disclose any details. #onpoli thetrillium.ca/insider-news/…

At the heart of @RobCerjanec’s leadership are 2 values we share: family & hope. That’s why I’m proud to support him & was honoured to speak at his campaign kickoff in Ajax. In these challenging times, Rob’s vision reminds us that a brighter future in ONT is possible. #onpoli

Let me add my voice to this: I have never heard the Prime Minister raise his voice to MPs. What I have experienced is the most open, transparent, consultative leader ever since being elected in 2008. Demanding? Yes. Inappropriate? Never. google.com/url?sa=t&source=w…

Rob Cerjanec had a great campaign launch today! The room was packed and the speech was excellent. Co-chairs Stephanie Bowman and Granville Anderson led the proceedings and Young Liberals played a prominent role. My two young, young Liberals also enjoyed it (which surprised all of us). Go @RobCerjanec go! #onpoli

June 6 is a day to remember the Afzaal family — four lives taken by senseless act of Islamophobia in London, Ontario, leaving the only survivor, a young boy, without his family. We must do so with intention: to honor their lives, to stand in solidarity with our Muslim community, and to reaffirm our commitment to a future rooted in compassion, inclusion, and justice. Let today be more than remembrance; let it be a reminder that our voices, our love, and our unity matter. Together, we stand stronger against hate, today and every day.

“Committees still sit,” Premier Ford said this week, defending the record-long summer break at Queen's Park. But PC MPPs are now trying to cancel all summer meetings of the committee that reviews government appointments, calling it "routine" scheduling: thetrillium.ca/insider-news/…
