Is it any wonder Junior was railing against the BOC interest rate hike yesterday? It's going to really impact all that debt (around $500 billion now) which this provincial government has built up over 8 years and done zero to mitigate.
#BREAKING - Red ink Ontario - The provincial deficit is projected to balloon by more than 22% to $16.9 billion, the result of U.S trade war & global economic uncertainty. The government in its economic update is also pushing back plans to balance the books by one year to 2029-30

The usual "ThEy'Re TakIn' ARe JeRbSS!!!!111" folks are all in the comments - not surprising - People don't look past their usual bias (or racist bias) to see why Canada actually NEEDS immigration: 1/5 🧵
Carney suggests immigration increase is on the horizon in New York Times interview ctvnews.ca/politics/article/…
This means we need more people working - because when we have people working (legally) they're contributing to CPP, OAS, etc. etc.
If we have a low birthrate, and we DON'T have immigration (because "they're takin' our jobs" nonsense) we don't have the support for CPP etc. 4/5
". . . our partnership, and yours, it is grounded in the stories of our peoples; many of those who helped to build your nation were Europeans in search of a better life.
1/5
On that day, Canadian forces pushed farther inland than any other; and in some of the bloodiest fighting of the war sustained heavy losses but soldiered on.
4/5
