What’s The Matter? I Thought You Guys Loved Cuts

‘It goes way overboard’: Ford calls OPP on protesters who brought guillotine to Queen’s Park I had to say the obvious thing in the title, but now I need to have a word with whomever did this and anyone who thinks it might be a good idea to do some similar thing in the future. …

And Hopefully We Never Will Again

Everything here is true, frightening and absolutely insane. We’ve never had a premier like Doug Ford before. Here’s why I don’t get it whatsoever, but clearly there are people in this world who like Doug Ford and think he’s doing a good job. If you do happen to be one who believes his government is …

Let’s Fund Schools Based ON Factors That Are Out Of Their Control. What Could Go Wrong?

As is usually the case with these things I’m open to hearing why this isn’t a stupid idea, but it strikes me that basing more than half of a college or university’s provincial funding on factors like how many students graduate, how many of them wind up employed and how much money they make is …

Maybe Ford Is ON To Something. At The Rate He’s Going, We Might All Be Better Off Under Water

It’s pretty obvious to anyone with eyes, ears or a brain that Canada’s flooding problem has gotten worse in the last few years. So naturally, now is the perfect time to cut a province worth of conservation authority funding in half. Ontario conservation authorities say the provincial government has cut their funding for flood management …

PC Government About To Spin So Hard We’ll All Feel Dizzy

This should be fun. I can hardly wait to see which of these poor schlubs they shove out here to explain to us all that this bad thing we’re doing is actually good because *spins the wheel of utter nonsense*. NDP revives Tory bill curbing taxpayer-funded partisan ads in bid to embarrass Ford government The …

We Acted In Good Faith. We Know We Did Because We Said So

I haven’t been sued once in my life let alone multiple times in under a year, but I want to think that if this were not the case, that I would, at some point, be wise enough to pause and reflect upon why this might be happening and what I might do to make things …

Open For Whatever We Tell You To Be Open For, Or Else

So remember when I said that Doug Ford wouldn’t be happy until we were all covered in PC campaign stickers? Clearly somebody in his office read those words and thought “wow, what a great fuckin’ idea!” Ontario to mandate anti-carbon tax stickers at gas pumps Yup. Dude is out here legally obliging private businesses to …

Leave It To Doug Ford To Design A Tax Credit That Leaves The Entire Province Worse Off

I don’t know if the Ford government is literally overflowing with imbeciles or if it’s just so bent on dinking over the average Ontarian that it doesn’t care if it has to blow its own foot off to do it, but here we are again. Ontario’s low-income tax credit not as good for workers as …

I Almost Feel Sorry For Amy Fee. I Don’t, But I almost Do

I don’t know a lot about what Amy Fee did in her life before politics, but if these are her defending skills I sure hope it didn’t involve lawyering. Thrown to the wolves by her bosses in the Ford government and ordered to defend its autism plan, she, or someone pulling the strings, came up …
