Canadian COVID-19 cases and current information.
Sadly our provinces are run by conservatives and they have stopped publicly reporting reliable information, so we must find other sources. Public health units report to Health Canada. health-infobase.canada.ca/co…

.@TizzyEnt CTV news tracked him down. Police are investigating. No full name though just "Tom". I would assume because of that car. Has not turned himself in but is "thinking about it". Not good enough.

New poll:
76% of Ukrainians living in Ukraine believe that armed resistance to Russian aggression must continue, even if some of them have to spend some time without electricity, running water, or sewage services.
Only 15% believe Ukraine should accept all of Russia’s demands to preserve these basic comforts, even if it means losing the war.
Since August–September, despite all of Russia’s attacks, public attitudes have remained virtually unchanged.
80% believe Ukraine should continue striking Russia’s oil industry, despite US demands to unilaterally stop doing so and threats to suspend or restrict aid. Only 11% believe Ukraine should refrain from such strikes, even if Russia continues destroying civilian infrastructure.
63% are prepared to endure the war for as long as necessary, while 21% are willing to endure it for up to another six months. These attitudes have also remained virtually unchanged throughout the second half of 2026.
62% trust Zelenskyy as president, while 35% do not.

Yesterday, I asked Premier Ford and the Minister of Health how they can justify denying a 31-year-old coverage for her cancer treatment while spending $117 million on self-promoting advertising last year.
Thank you to Sabrina for letting me share your story at Queen’s Park 🧡

WATCH: Minister @MelanieJoly says ‘we have a very strong case’ against Stelco and that the ‘full force’ of the government will be applied.
“So, we’ll use the full force of the law. Period.”
Asked if this could deter further investment - "No. Serious people abide by the law."

On October 28th, we remember those who fell victim to Canadian Internment camps. From 1914-1920, 8,579 Ukrainians and other Europeans, branded as ‘enemy aliens,’ were imprisoned in 24 internment camps across Canada.

Hey @fordnation - why did @StanChoMPP get a raise and a new job at the Ministry of Education (of all places) after defrauding tax payers, while honest, hard working teachers and education workers are going to work on an expired contract? 🤔

Premier Doug Ford is promising the "bad actors" in Ontario's private career college sector will "go to jail," even though the OPP has yet to launch a formal criminal investigation.
Meanwhile, the government still hasn't cleared up why it can't take a surgical approach to the OSAP pause.

If a senior can go to hospital for a hip replacement and go home in two days, then my bet is Stan Cho could have gone home in two days as well.
This excuse doesn’t explain why the Minister needed to spend $15,000 on hotel stays when his wife and child lived just 6km away.
PC MP Stan Cho says he stayed in Toronto hotel ‘for family convenience’ thetrillium.ca:443/insider-n…

These ruins were once a town called Lyman. Twenty thousand people lived here. Now, Russia bombs Lyman relentlessly, killing any life that might remain.

Rest in peace, Volodymyr.
You brought the Marines of the 34th to us.
Your videos of war crimes in Oleshky, your home town, brought the attention of the entire world.
A hero behind the camera killed traveling with a medical team.
Taken by the very terror you covered

🚨BREAKING: Nearly 2,900 voters in one Georgia county have yet to receive the absentee ballots they recently applied for and are blaming their local officials’ hiring of an out-of-town vendor for the delays, they charge in a lawsuit filed Tuesday. democracydocket.com/news-ale…

This is absolutely disgusting and understand that this is who Donald Trump has made allies with. It’s like ISIS with a bigger army, probably worse, actually. Attacking children, animals, rescuers, all of it. They have no place in a civilized world.
russian terrorists attacked with an FPV drone an animal shelter in Kramatorsk, causing a fire on the second floor of the building where many cats were located. After the firefighters arrived to put out the fire and help evacuate and collect the animals, a russian drone was waiting in the sky… after which it crashed into the fire truck as well.
Throughout the full-scale war, this shelter served as a refuge for stray animals and people with pets. The animals that were inside during the strike were carried outside, but some of them ran off into the surrounding area and got lost due to the explosion and shock.

His parents stayed behind to fight for their country.
He was no more than 6 years old and had to cross the border all by himself.
A plastic bag containing toys, a few clothes, and a chocolate bar.
His uncle was waiting for him on the other side.
I am writing this using my head, because if I were to write it from my heart, this post would be filled with insults and profanities directed at the three of you:
Musk, Trump, and Witkoff.
I hope for universal and divine justice for you because of this.

Iconic. “Do you trust the Russians?” Harry Truman was once asked
“No. They broke every agreement they ever made with me. That's why I don't trust them,” replied the 33rd President of the United States.
80 years later, nothing has changed…

Damn! They was fast. Ukraine has launched its first satellite for its own communications network
🛰 Great news! Ukraine has launched its first satellite for its own communications network
Himera, together with Denmark's GomSpace, has launched the Obria Nano satellite into orbit.
With its help, Ukraine will be able to develop its own communications infrastructure, relying less on foreign satellite systems.
The first test satellite of Ukraine's future sovereign satellite communications network is already undergoing testing.

The ceasefire in Oleshky is another trap.
Yes, humanitarian relief matters. People’s lives come first. But the reality on the ground suggests russia is using this pause for another purpose.
Ukrainian military sources report that russia is reinforcing and resupplying its forward positions on the left bank of the Kherson region.
Building materials. Ammunition. Military supplies.
There are reports that russia is preparing assault operations in the Kherson direction for November 2026.
Every ceasefire gives Moscow another opportunity to prepare its next attack. How many times does it have to prove it cannot be trusted?
