Letโ€™s stop calling it the โ€˜notwithstanding clauseโ€™.
In practice, itโ€™s actually the neofascist proviso.

Ford government running new Ontario Place advertisements, wonโ€™t disclose cost | Globalnews.ca The government said it launched the campaign at the end of August and expects it to run until late December, promoting plans to modernize the Toronto waterfront attraction.

"Ford government running new Ontario Place advertisements, wonโ€™t disclose cost"
Itโ€™s like rubbing salt into a wound that taxpayers will never forget Doug Ford.
Doug Ford is in only creating distraction to cover up his corrupt politicians pillaging taxpayer coffers.

Itโ€™s time to work together to deliver on this plan โ€” to protect our communities, empower Canadians with new opportunities, and build Canada strong.

More people will struggle to be housed in Ontario if Bill 60 is passed, open letter warns A proposed bill by the Doug Ford government will worsen homelessness in the province by eroding essential tenant rights amid a rising cost of living and unstable job market, an open letter by a group ...

"The open letter states the bill will expedite evictions by giving tenants less time and fewer means to pay rental arrears. It will also make it more difficult for tenants to dispute an eviction application or appeal an eviction decision, it added."

Secret data reveals which low-scoring applicants still received millions of dollars from the Ford governmentโ€™s skills fund Data obtained by the Star shows 26 applicants scoring 50 per cent or lower received $36.6 million from Premier Ford's Skills Development Fund earlier this year.

"Ford PCs gave Postmedia $1M from Skills Fund for Al training though their application got a failing grade
Despite a failing grade, a scooter rental company still got $1M to train 100 people (!) on fintech, which has no relevance to renting scooters"
Grifters!

The UCP funding & pushing private surgery is a scandal that many Albertans seem happy to ignore
Albertans pay more for worse outcomes
Where does the money go?
I suspect into the pockets of UCP donors
The UCP don't care about Albertans health
They care about making their friends & donors rich

YouTube video by Mint Canada Capitalises BIG On America's Loss: Carney Unveils New Talent Strategy To Draw H1B Researchers

THIS is what true leaders sound like.

They don't brag about how great they are or speak nonsense about sharks, batteries, & magnets. They work for ALL the people & the ENTIRE country, focusing on prosperity.

Mostly, they don't attack, maim & kill their own citizens.
