I do not get 'Trending' on Bluesky. If I click on it to see what's up with, say, 'Canadian Politics (#4 right now), the first bunch of posts are about Hungary and Peter Magyar.
It's like this all the time, for any trending topic - unrelated content. Not too helpful and not too interesting.
A tweet from Robert Benzie (@robertbenzie) stating that Government House Leader Steve Clark noted he is not in cabinet after being questioned by NDP Leader Marit Stiles about Premier Doug Ford’s executive jet. The tweet adds that Ford is in Ottawa and missing question period.
First-past-the-post turns cabinet decisions into a rubber stamp for politicians who win majorities with just 40% of the vote.
Proportional representation ensures how public dollars are spent requires genuine transparency and consensus.
You know we are totally going to eat a loss on the resale. So bloody stupid.
I really appreciate your empathy, Sasha! You have such a big heart! It's a truly unnecessary situation for far too many Canadians and shouldn't be this way in our society.
I am pretty matter-of-fact about the idea. And, weirdly, glad it's at least an option so I don't have to traumatise my family, or suffer in nursing care which, at my income, would suuuuuck so hard with unimaginable vulnerability. (Mind you, I don't have the fear of death thing that many people do.)
Oshawa in the news for something good! (I can say that - I live here. LOL!)
I didn't not know about this program, so quite happy to learn about it.
I do know Ajax Library is looking for 2 volunteer dungeon masters: teen and adult - if you are out this way: www.ajaxlibrary.ca/jobs-volunte...
Guarantee he takes a loss on the sale and taxpayers will lose a chunk o' change - again - because of his stupidity.

🤣 News to all of us.

Fucking guy.
Should have never bought it in the first place, so bloody tone deaf and callous. But we've long known he's truly not the sharpest crayon in the box. Dumb white men failing up will always infuriate me.

Literally, this conversation between my husband and I last week. I, with my poor (and worsening) chronic diseases and disabilities, have MAiD as an option - and poverty will likely have me choosing that if I'm not taken out sooner by my own body. 🤣 (Laughing so I don't cry. It's ridiculous.)
Thread from @davidmaccdn.bsky.social on his most recent analysis for @policyalternatives.ca: "The federal government now plans to cut Canada’s ratio of development assistance to Gross National Income (GNI) to its lowest level since 1964, setting development goals back by 6 decades."

Right? Something must have gone terribly wrong during the making. My grandma's tarts were in-between, not too runny, not too firm. I am a bad Canadian because I don't actually like butter tarts 🤣. (I make them for other people though, fwiw.) But I am here for all the butter tart discourse!
"Have some discussions about raisins or no raisins or pecans or no pecans, those are the arguments we should be having as Canadians," he said.
Seriously. Imagine things being so calm and steady in Ontario, Canada, and around the world, that this is the biggest issue creating factions. 🤣
Oh, indeed he did!
This is a dance off. If you see this, re-post a dance or you're eliminated.
Doug Ford: I bought a jet! 🤦♀️

CBC website right now.
I keep hoping this will happen. And it keeps not happening. I am frustrated thinking he will never know a single consequence for all the corruption that's gone on, and continues to occur.

Doug Ford is such an arsehat.

April 17, 2026 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS RELEASE: Doug Ford's "Gravy Plane" the real reason for Ford's sudden interest in jets at the island airport Today, the Toronto Star reported that Premier Doug Ford has purchased a jet that can only be flown from the island airport if jet expansion at the island airport goes through. "The timing of Ford's purchase of his taxpayer funded "Gravy Plane" and his sudden interest in expanding the island airport is not a coincidence, Norm Di Pasquale highlighted. "For eight years Premier Ford has not said a single word about the island airport, and suddenly he's hell bent on expand the airport to allow him to fly Gravy Plane jet from there. Ford continues to make decisions affecting Torontonians with the sole focus of him being able to get to work and his fundraisers across Ontario faster. Any other level of government that gets involved in this seemingly corrupt process will now be tarred with Ford's taxpayer funded Gravy Plane." NoJetsTO calls on the Government of Ontario to abandon this rushed plan and allow Torontonians to have their say on the airport by keeping the City of Toronto in the Tripartite Agreement.

Also coincidentally (sarcasm font) timed with his strong-arming for jets out of Billy Bishop. Sigh.
I doubt so much he will ever have a consequence stick to him, so he carries on with his callousness and personal agenda.
