“The Ford government requesting an ethics investigation into their own political staff is like someone accused of robbing a bank demanding the police focus on their get-away driver. This is a strategic play in response to their Greenbelt corruption scandal. Don’t fall for it.”

Fellow Saultite, Shannon Proudfoot nails it. Poilievre’s core fault is that he’s a faker, and not a particularly talented one.

BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN BOTHERING ME, HERE IS PRRR, LOOKING A LITTLE LIKE A WEASEL:

Break Up Postmedia, or Else!

If you picked up a National Post today – a physical newspaper, not the website – do you know where you’d find the first news article about the #Ontario Auditor General’s report into Doug Ford’s #Greenbelt land swaps that are due to make his developer friends $8 Billion in profit?

#Conservative staff members "regularly" delete emails to avoid accountability.
They even used their personal emails to do government business with lobbyists.
That's dodgy.

I’m in favor of televising Donald Trump’s trial, because we are literally, ALL OF US, the victims of the crimes Trump committed. Show the whole goddamned thing.

Very glad I live in a place with “Heights” in the name…

Saw something I haven't seen in weeks yesterday evening while out cycling with @TAV; an OC Transpo LRT (noisily) moving on the tracks between Pimisi and Bayview stations.

Uplifting message from the car park machine today

Tongass National Forest has a great sense of humor about "bear petting." 😜 Another place to visit on my bucket list. It's 16.7 million acres and is in Southeast near Juneau. I've been to Juneau, just not to the forest and I will NEVER pet a bear!

Steve Schmidt says Ron DeSantis "may be the worst presidential candidate of the last 50 years who has received any attention whatsoever from the national media" But when I see DeSantis I can't help thinking of Scott Walker, the former WI governor. The political media was briefly infatuated with him, he was the GOP's next great hope, and then he imploded.

I never understood the fascination with walker. I thought he was terrible. Zero charisma, terrible ideas, goofy looking.
