"SooToday reported that the MPP was in a romantic relationship with a member of his staff before his arrest. The revelation raised ethical questions about whether it’s appropriate for a politician to pursue a relationship with an employee whose salary is funded by taxpayers.” 🤢
‘We’ll see how it goes’: Chris Scott hopeful he’ll return to Ford’s PC caucus thetrillium.ca:443/news/poli…

I remember GO training in from Hamilton at 2 weeks post-partum because there was an important vote happening that I couldn’t miss.
Let’s be clear: it’s possible to have a new baby, be a committed MPP, and not misuse taxpayer dollars because you wanted a snooze in a fancy hotel
Now the parliamentary assistant to Paul Calandra, Cho told reporters that he expensed thousands in hotels because his wife preferred a quiet home while sleep-training a baby torontolife.com/city/stan-ch…

If a senior can go to hospital for a hip replacement and go home in two days, then my bet is Stan Cho could have gone home in two days as well.
This excuse doesn’t explain why the Minister needed to spend $15,000 on hotel stays when his wife and child lived just 6km away.
PC MP Stan Cho says he stayed in Toronto hotel ‘for family convenience’ thetrillium.ca:443/insider-n…

I hear the winds of the Harper era blowing in… all the “abolish the Indian Act” talk… feds would love nothing more than to drop its fiduciary and treaty obligations. Saw this coming with Carney’s conservative extractive agenda. #cdnpoli #indianact #treaties
Abolishing the Indian Act does not fix the relationship and anyone who thinks it does is naive.

Digesting #BCElection2026 & worrying about what it means for DRIPA, truth, justice and reconciliation, Indigenous land rights, & our human rights obligations.
Waking up to messages like this is exactly why.
We must work even harder to resist the erosion of Indigenous rights.

David Eby’s legacy = human rights violating military raid on Wet’suwet’en as AG, cheating in the leadership race to become Premier, simping for LNG, colossally failing to uphold DRIPA, worst snap election in Canadian history

Something we have to recognize about the Tories victory in BC tonight is that it's fueled to a large extent by racism against indigenous people.

Here are the graves.
This Orange Shirt Day we are returning the Brandon Indian Residential School cemetery grounds to the Sioux Valley Dakota Nation on behalf of many First Nations whose children are buried here.
This is one of the most well documented burial grounds at a residential school in Canada with not only church and historical records but also contemporaneous newspaper articles describing what happened to these children.
You can not deny history.

You know who was pretty quiet today regarding the masked white supremacists mobilizing in Kamloops with residential school denialism on the eve of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation? @PierrePoilievre. Here he is posing with the group's founder.

If you mismanaged money, signed bad deals, and ran up the office credit card at work – you'd probably lose your job ❌
In Doug Ford's record-oversized cabinet? You get a promotion 💼🤝
It's just a big game of musical chairs to them, doing as little as possible whilst wasting your tax dollars 🪑💸
They're trying to change the channel from scandal after scandal: but we know we can't trust these guys 📉

The Ontario Liberals spent 10K promoting inaccurate projections from @338Canada instead of promoting their ideas and values. People want to vote for something, distrustful of this kind of cynical approach.
The Liberals lost in three byelections on Thursday despite consistently polling well ahead of the Official Opposition New Democrats. thestar.com/politics/provinc…
Athena Bedassigae-Pheasant retweeted
During the Hamilton by-election, the Liberals spent ~$10K on Facebook ads alone to suppress the NDP vote with 338Canada “projections” misrepresented as polls. Just like in 2018, realizing they couldn’t “stop Ford,” the OLP targeted the NDP instead reddit.com/r/Hamilton/commen… #onpoli

Congratulations, Fatima.
Thank you, Scarborough Southwest, for putting your trust in her. You have one of the hardest-working people I know heading to Queen's Park to fight for you, and I could not be prouder to welcome her to our team.

Premier Doug Ford and federal ministers just streamed an announcement that looked a lot like a press conference, but didn't actually invite any reporters.
"Thank God, we don’t have the media. No questions, no answers. We are good to go.” #onpoli
