“Ontario is eliminating free testing of private wells. So people on private well water are no longer going to be able to get free water testing through public health….” 👇👇👇👇video credit @steve_boots 👇👇👇#DougFordIsCorrupt #dougford #water #walkerton #ontario #PublicHealth #ontario @fordnation @OntarioPCParty

Osprey couple built a fine nest - by covering the daylight sensor the streetlight stays on as a brood heater.

Diabetes can be treated – but the medications are expensive. Insulin, for example, can cost up to $1,700 per year. If our pharmacare legislation passes and becomes law, we’ll cover that cost. These health care workers, diabetes advocates, and I agree: That’s really good news.

"Things have never been worse in Ontario hospitals" that's on you Ford. You've had a majority government for FIVE YEARS! Your choices to underfund public healthcare and overpay private nursing agencies are having dire consequences on the people! Shame! #onhealth #ONpoli #Hamont
Hundreds of healthcare workers rallying in Toronto are demanding a 5% funding increase beyond inflation to establish staff-to-patient ratios & fair compensation. Healthcare workers here tell us under the Ford government’s watch, things have never been worse in Ontario’s hospitals

A soldier. A lawyer. A statesman. A trailblazer. A proud Conservative. Lincoln Alexander's legacy as the first Black MP, Cabinet Minister and Lt.-Gov. of Ontario, defied barriers and paved a wider path of freedom and opportunity for all. Today we honour this Canadian hero.

A former politician and family physician, @Carolyn_Bennett has dedicated her entire career to public service. As Canada’s next Ambassador to Denmark, she’ll continue to serve Canadians – deepening the relationship between our two countries and advancing our shared priorities.

Regardless of your political leanings a “thank you for your service” is far more adult and gracious.

Some kind soul just dropped off Chanukah treats at our door! Sufganiyot (Jewish donuts) and Latkes (potato pancakes)! AND I found candles that'll work on our Irish Catholic menorah - so there'll be a celebratory lighting tonight!
