BREAKING: We now know the municipal/provincial and federal lobbyists behind the Billy Bishop airport expansion in Toronto is Nieuport Aviation, an asset among many, controlled by the IIG which was founded by JP Morgan. Yes, an AMERICAN bank is trying to destroy our waterfront.
Who's behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? What I discovered should worry us all trib.al/3EPUcXX

Good riddance. Family legacy of selling out to corporations.
Yesterday, I informed Premier Ford of my decision to resign from Cabinet and from my seat in the Ontario Legislature, effective June 5. To Premier Ford, to the people of York-Simcoe, to Ontario’s Francophone community, to the York-Simcoe PC riding association, to my Caucus and Cabinet colleagues, to my constituency and ministerial teams, to the Ontario Public Service and my family – thank you.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it. Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying. Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence." Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter." Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter. They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created. One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility." Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies. That's the metered intelligence business model. And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
SAM ALTMAN: “WE SEE A FUTURE WHERE INTELLIGENCE IS A UTILITY, LIKE ELECTRICITY OR WATER, AND PEOPLE BUY IT FROM US ON A METER.”

Moments ago: Premier Ford won’t commit to paying taxpayers back the $200K spent on private jet fees, calling the controversy an “old story.” He says he’s already saved taxpayers “millions of dollars” by flying commercial over the years & only charters flights “when needed.”

Liberals will say the left gets stuck in the 'politics of envy' because we find billionaires unacceptable But then the libs go ahead and attack cleaners and transit workers for having the audacity to make decent money

BREAKING: Marit Stiles’ motion to ban the predatory practice of surveillance pricing in Ontario was voted down by Doug Ford’s government. These are the faces of our elected officials who voted to side with corporations over working people. Remember them. Doug Ford, days after being caught buying a $30M private jet on the taxpayers dime, didn’t even bother to show up for the vote. Shameful. The Manitoba NDP government passed a similar bill, the Saskatchewan NDP is proposing it, and Canada’s NDP proposed it before it was shut down by the Federal Liberals – and now the Ontario NDP’s motion was defeated. It’s clear that the NDP is the only party fighting to make life more affordable for people. More to come.

Other services like the Canadian Armed Forces, the RCMP, and every Police, Firefighting, & Paramedic service in the country didn’t make a profit either. So why does @canadapostcorp always get this treatment from legacy media?

Despite pretty wide opposition from community groups and residents, the bubble bylaw has officially been passed at Ottawa City Council today with only 4 in opposition. The bylaw bans any demonstration 50m within "vulnerable social infrastrucutre."

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he’s been “inundated” by calls from people telling him to “keep the damn plane,” as the government looks to urgently sell the $28.9 million jet it quietly acquired last week. globalnews.ca/news/11810738/… #onpoli

This is a bad frame. The post office is a service. How much did the military “lose” last year?

Canada has already paid an "entry fee" in these negotiations — dropping counter-tariffs and scrapping the Digital Services Tax, a modest tax on the world's most profitable tech giants, at the behest of Donald Trump. Those concessions got us nowhere. Prime Minister Carney, now is not the time to concede further ground. Canada must show resolve in the face of Trump's bullying and stand up for workers, jobs, and Canadian industries. cbc.ca/news/politics/washing…

Hey voters , If you find yourself saying "*blank* was the party in leadership what's * insert my party * supposed to do?" The NDP lost party status and still put motions through. Don't believe them when they say "we weren't in power" You all are being played.
Today, the Liberals rejected our NDP motion to ban surveillance pricing - a dystopian practice that will drive up costs for Canadians if we allow it to take root. The NDP is the only party fighting to protect you from getting ripped off at the checkout.

Today I proposed banning "surveillance pricing" — a creepy practice where corporations weaponize your personal data to rip you off. Deeply disappointed the motion was rejected. Canadians are already being crushed by sky-high costs. They deserve relief, not corporate exploitation.

Shitty conservatives crossing the floor to become liberals is mostly just confirming that the 2026 liberals might as well be conservatives.

Liberals will say they are one big, broad tent. But tents have stakes in the ground that don’t move. What the Liberal Party actually is, in fact, is a bedsheet, tenuously tied to a flagpole, flapping in whichever direction the wind happens to be blowing theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

What is PP complaining about? Didn't he vote against a bill that would have triggered a by-election if someone floor crossed. Oh he did vote nay. Would you look at that. Vote Detail - 123 - Members of Parliament - House of Commons of Canada share.google/nIQyN1rH41ksElA…

Mark Carney is seizing a costly Liberal majority that voters denied him, and doing so through backroom deals. In January, MP Gladu said that floor crossers should face voters in a byelection to give voters the final say. I could not agree more. She should do so. The people in her community voted for our Conservative vision of a Canada that is affordable, safe, and strong at home, not for the costly Liberal government she has now joined. She should honour her word and let voters decide.

So what does this even mean in terms of target pricing?
Premier Ford and I forged a new partnership to make housing more affordable — reducing taxes and fees for new homes in Ontario by up to $200,000.

It's funny how @andrewaperez decides to remain neutral in the @OntLiberal leadership race as a staunch liberal supporter. Yet thinks their opinion on the federal NDP leadership race as a non-supporter even matters. Let's take a moment to laugh at the audacity.
My views have evolved over the years, but as someone who has opted to remain neutral in @OntLiberal leadership race, I believe strongly that our next leader must have a seat at Queen’s Park *or* have a credible plan to seek a seat almost immediately. Ontario Liberals can no longer afford not to have their permanent leader’s voice in the Legislature; this can simply no longer stand if we’re to seriously compete for power in the 2028/2029 election. #onpoli #cdnpoli
