RFK Jr. says US won’t donate to global vaccine effort Kennedy ripped into Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, in a video address at its pledging summit.

This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible.

Hey Doug. How’d you get my number? More Greenbelt scandal style grifting? Get my number off your lists. Focus on your priorities: destroying Ontario’s healthcare system, eroding our public education, selling off Ontario to your rich buddies & pretending like you give a shit about working families.

Captain Ramius from Hunt For Red October saying "they don't know why I'm detecting with this shubmarine. And people dancing saying it's the anniversary of his wife's death and did you know he's Lithuanian?

In ancient Egypt, people drank low alcohol beer and wine to avoid the parasites in "raw water." The old graves, which I excavate, are full of children who died from diseases we now can vaccinate against. You are ghouls for promoting this garbage.

Toronto public library visits completely outpace attendance to major sports team games.

Kind of an odd comparison to make but bolsters that fact the TPL is one of our greatest assets with unparalleled access to culture and information.

On the left, my image. On the right, the Al image that was clearly trained on, and designed to plagiarize, my image.

All Al generated imagery is inherently theft. It's unethical, environmentally disastrous, and does irreparable harm to both artists and society.

What's not to like? Less propaganda from totalitarian states and less $$ for Elmo's channel.

Less shocked by Trump's tariff tweets than I am by the number of Canadians rushing to sanewash them.
The amount of fentanyl that crosses the US-Canadian border is basically homeopathic! This isn't a serious demand! You don't have to be stupid in public!

Interesting how the people paranoid about nefarious foreign entities imposing their will on Canada and undermining our national sovereignty are suddenly first in line advocating we give into Trump’s threats

Question: Will a square inch of bike lane on Bloor, University or Yonge be touched before Ford calls a premature election this winter, thereby creating chaos on city streets in the midst of a self-serving trip to the polls? #onpoli

Ford government to ban lawsuits against province if cyclists are hurt or killed on streets where bike lanes were removed Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria tells cyclists: for your own safety, stay off Bloor, Yonge and University when bike lanes are removed.

Show me that you know the change you’re making will likely result in deaths of bikers without saying that:
