    NDP could pull support for Liberal government over pharmacare, health care privatization: Singh (a new twist!)

    “We’re in a period of normalizing the suspension of fundamental rights,” the prime minister lamented. “That worries me.” Said…..Justin Trudeau?? http://montrealgazette.com/opinion/columnists/allison-hanes-at-some-point-ottawa-must-stand-up-for-the-constitution (Cough…Emergencies Act…Cough) When...

    NDP could pull support for Liberal government over pharmacare, health care privatization: Singh (a new twist!)

    NDP could pull support for Liberal government over pharmacare, health care privatization: Singh (a new twist!)

    Trudeau is going after the “Notwithstanding Cause” now, which will not be popular in Quebec to put it mildly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_33_of_the_Canadian_Charter_of_Rights_and_Freedoms Now…I may be wrong, but I think this is protected in Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms…but...

    Here’s another, but Canadian: Canada is home to some of the world’s first jurisdictions to certify transgender status through a lens of “self-identification.” Just 10 years ago, Canadian citizens were not able to legally change their gender until they could furnish evidence of sex reassignment...

    Woman dead after (ANOTHER) seemingly unprovoked assault in downtown Toronto, police say

    8 months. That’s enough to talk most people with a job & a mortgage & car payment, etc…though. I think it was eight months, but morning was 12 hours ago. That was because the gun wasn’t registered or something.

    That’s what happened here for over four months. I was listening to this woman being interviewed on the radio this morning. She did send piles and piles and piles of emails and so on and so forth, but also was directly at the airport with the AirTag information and got nowhere. She and her...

    A newlywed couple from Cambridge, Ont. waited months to get their lost luggage back, only to discover it had been allegedly donated to charity by Air Canada.
