The Doug Ford government is entertaining over ten data center applications right now.

The legislation, titled the Protect Ontario by Securing Affordable Energy for Generations Act, 2025 (often referred to as Bill 40), was introduced in June 2025 to manage soaring energy demand.

Join me in calling for Premier Ford and MPPs to repeal Bill 5 This disastrous legislation scraps the Endangered Species Act, creates lawless “special economic zones” for developers to exploit and undermines the rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Petition to repeal Ontario Bill 5, which rolls back protections for endangered species. More info and petition at

84-Year-Old Ontario Woman with Dementia Put in Headlock by Hospital Security Guard YouTube video by blueBell Village

Dementia patients in hospitals are subject to barbaric treatment. There are reports about incidents in Ontario, and out of the UK. Try not to send family with dementia to hospital without questioning use of restraints and security.

On the Canadian side, trucks are now sometimes backing up on the 402 almost to Reece's corners, which is 27 km away. Truckers are holding back at highway exits so local traffic can keep moving past them.

Am combining trips and reducing speed. Life in the slow lane is cheaper.

If you have family with dementia, NEVER CALL AN AMBULANCE to get help with behaviours of any kind. 'Treatment' of dementia in hospitals includes physical restraint, sometimes by security guards dressed like police, and high doses of anti-psychotics. Patients suffer physical and psychological trauma.

From 20th April until the end of the month Venus will appear close to the Pleiades. Probably best seen through binoculars on the 24th, low to the northwest after sunset. 🔭 🧪

Health care professionals say non-profit long term care puts more money into patient support that for-profit homes do. For-profit homes put the funds into profits (of course). For-profit does not belong in health care. Patients suffer to pay for the yachts. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"Fortunate Son" by CCR was written by John Fogerty in about 20 minutes, fueled by rage over the unfairness of the Vietnam War draft. The song critiques how wealthy, well-connected families used their influence to protect their sons from combat, while working-class young men were sent to fight

This is why Canada is facing the possibility of another election this year

Things are being held up for political reasons at a time when we need to fix systems and build new one’s rapidly

There are times when we can belly button gaze with minority govt - this is not one of those times

They're performing for the half of the electorate that put them there and wants this cinematic idea of America to be real. There have been decades of propaganda via Hollywood. The wish-fulfilling legend that keeps the base happy is a smokescreen for what is really going on.

There could be job retraining and community initiatives to provide employment. Not sure what measures are underway in Amherstburg though.

Thanks to Spencer Lunham Jr for setting Ford straight on the "basket weaving" comment.

I’d rather be a Canadian with a Silver than an American with a Gold.

I love where Denmark posted they don’t need the help because their hospital system is free, and health outcomes aren’t dependent on wealth. 🔥

The truck convoy moving across Canada bore a resemblance to the convoy moving across Ukraine. I recall sensing a threat to our sovereignty from some foreign entity, and revelations over the past few years have reinforced that interpretation.

Arts and culture generated 458,000 jobs in Ontario in 2023. But we should not need to remind these folks who commodify everything that there are many other forms of wealth.

What were Jeffrey Epstein’s connections to Tucson? Here’s what the files say

#Epstein was quite closely linked with #Chomsky and scientists at University of Arizona associated with The Science of Consciousness Conference. Many will be surprised to learn that in February 2019, Epstein arranged a 3 hour dinner meeting between Bannon and Chomsky.
