Canada vs. Google/Facebook: it's a negotiation. As in any negotiation, what happens now will bear no relation to where it ends up. Everyone take a Valium.

A man who is under investigation for inciting an attack against our country and is under indictment for stealing & mishandling our National security information, got to appoint 3 Justices to lifetime seats on our Supreme Court, and almost exactly one year after they helped to overturn 50 years of abortion rights for women, they have helped to overturn 50+ years of Affirmative Action for minorities.

In his press conferences, Premier Doug Ford has said a few things we need to address. We will continue fact-checking Ford until we get a good deal for education workers. We are not done yet, the fight is not over. gooddealnow.ca #39KisNotEnough #onpoli #onted

CUPE - don't outsmart yourself. Declare this a win, spike the football in Ford's end zone and move back to the table. If the province reneges or plays silly bugger, you can always bring the hammer back out.

The crocodile tears today at the Inquiry today are too much to stomach as they told their sob stories about their families, kids grandkids. But at no point do they say anything about thousands of kids who were too young to be vaccinated and how the jeopardized them. Me me me.

Workers have the freedom to strike. It is protected by the Charter. Using the notwithstanding clause to suspend workers rights is an affront to democracy.

Actually @Sflecce is traveling down a very dangerous path. His attack on CUPE Education Workers is a further erosion of our Public Education System under his watch. And what are The Charter/Constitutional implications for this gov's regular disregard for The Charter.
NEW - The Education Minister says the government is providing stability with today’s legislation and that most Ontarian’s he believes supports them.

Terrible first poll for Smith. NDP blows the doors off her brand in Edmonton/Calgary. Overall Confidence in the new premier is very low right across the province -especially on a key voting issue - Health Care. calgaryherald.com/opinion/co… @DonBraid

Here's the clip shared by the Alberta NDP they say shows Premier Danielle Smith is playing political games in Calgary - Elbow. In the 2014 clip, Smith says its telling that Jim Prentice won't run in the Calgary - Elbow byelection and instead runs elsewhere. #yeg #yyc #ableg
