    Let’s be honest. 15 min of sandbag filling was totally a photo-op that probably delayed things. Intent was good but the goals can be accomplished without interfering with the time sensitive work on the front line. But politicians gotta politician (just like Ford did yesterday)

    I know this man who confronted Trudeau. He is a wonderful, generous, and hard working soul. He was one of my mentors and inspirations. I am the lawyer I am today because of him. And he is right on this one.

    We can indeed do better. You had FOUR years. You tiwidled your thumbs & delayed action as emissions when UP. The after burning good will and demonizing those who disagreed you are simply rearranging deck chairs (while cutting the largest polluters a break). Words =\= Action. 👋

    All right, here's a short Vlad prediction game. Responses close right before first pitch tomorrow night. Game ends when Vlad socks his first dinger or tomorrow night's game ends, whichever comes later.

    1/ So it’s midnight and I just got off the phone with Doug Ford. He gives out his cell number and after a friend of mine got laid off today, I thought I would shoot him a text.

    It is wrong to vet judges based on secret partisan criteria and donations. It was wrong if other governments did it and wrong now.
