Those poor junkies. At least now they will have the opportunity to rest between their daily crime sprees to fund their $300 a day crack and heroin habits that are no fault of their own creation. Society made them stick needles in arms. They can't cope with the stress of global warming.

Global warming sure has a lot to answer for, I mean more than just an ice free North pole since 2013 that is

Here is another article explaining how LIE-beral policy is failing across the board. With some comments of my own in brackets):

EDITORIAL: Toronto can't solve homeless crisis on its own

From Postmedia News. Published: January 6, 2018/ Updated: January 6, 2018 7:51 PM EST

Filed Under: Toronto SUN/ Opinion/ Editorials

Toronto’s chronic inability to deal with its homeless problem isn’t just the result of administrative screw-ups at City Hall.

(OH REALLY? Toronto is most generous with offers to the homeless- with homeless people gravitating to rhe city for the better handouts! Toronto LIE-berals follow standard protocol- they BUY votes by hiring civil service union Hogs to “manage” the homeless “crisis” -meaning they make the “crisis” look as big and important and costly as possible so LIE-berals will have an excuse to dump even more money into the pot and BUY more votes! Shameless LIE-berals have given up hope of attracting enough Cdn homeless and are now encouraging illegals to come here from United States so the homeless crisis can be expanded and MORE Hogs be hire and more votes be bought in a frantic attempt to support the ever more unpopular LIE-beral cause! One employed Cdn in three works for govt and that is not enough to overcome the increasing HATE of the other two thirds!)

They were on display last week as city bureaucrats couldn’t provide correct information on which city shelters were full and which still had beds available in the middle of a bitter cold snap.

(City staff have LONG been in denial about the public interest in just how many beds are used on any given night- with staff adamant they WILL NOT keep such statistics! Poverty pimps WANT surplus beds at all shelters in order to “serve” the homeless better. On reason poverty pimps scorned the use of CNE buildings as emergency shelters- even though the buildings are sitting empty and unused is because they are not convenient for homeless people! You cannot panhandle on CNE grounds in winter because there is NOBODY there! A wise pan handler needs to get to the theatre or financial district- a long cold hike away from CNE grounds!)

(IN addition, an observant member of the public will note that homeless people NEED to get into populated areas in order to buy their drugs of choice and this is hard to do in deserted CNE territory! So homeless people need to move around for their quality of life and are often unable- too cold or too stoned or too drunk- to make the long trek to an isolated shelter at the CNE! Homeless people also like junk food as much as the rest of us and how will they buy their treats- with their panhandled cash if they are isolated at CNE? No, poverty pimps will insist that homeless NEED to be mobile for reasons the poverty pimps do not want to discuss!)

As a result, Mayor John Tory reversed course and agreed to opening up the city’s Moss Park Armoury as a winter respite centre, an idea he had rejected, based on the advice of city staff, just days before.

(Tory is a craven coward focussed entirely on getting re-elected and he has decided that sucking up to Muslims and Black Lives Matter bigots is good for him! Hence his enthusiasm for the Toronto “Sanctuary City” garbage policy and his unwillingness to explain WHY there has been a 30 percent jump in the number of people using homeless shelters this year. After all, the majority of Cdns are unhappy with Muslim immigration and are also hoping that the tens of thousands of illegals that have come here will be swiftly deported! While we call illegals “trespassers and gate crashers” , our LIE-beral overlords call them future LIE-beral party supporters! Tory and his ilk do not want to discuss how little real ability most of the illegals actually have to survive here without MASSIVE LIE-beral aid- hence there is NO talk of how many illegals are in the homeless shelters as it might lose votes for LIE-beral minded political twits!)

That said, Tory was correct in noting there are larger issues contributing to Toronto’s homelessness problem that the municipal government cannot solve on its own.

(Yes- the city has no control over immigration- not that they would change anything if they did have control- they just like having somebody else to blame when angry tax payers rage at them!)

First, there are 181,000 people on the waiting list for affordable housing in Toronto, which will never be addressed without intervention by the provincial and federal governments.

(Again, LIE-berals do not want to discuss how many of those seeking aid are people who should NOT have been allowed into Canada in the first place! LIE-berals routinely undo any legislation made by other parties that tightens immigration rules- with the current rules- under Our idiot Boy Justin now more lax than ever before! Nor do LIE-bera;s wish to discuss how badly our savings- such as they are- are being hit by LIE-beral meddling with interest rates! Our property taxes are set to go up 2.9 percent this year- without factoring in how much we will get hit by the increased market value of our homes- yet a sharp eyed shopper can get a maximum of about 0.8 percent interest on a bank savings account and MAY get as much as 1.4 percent on a bond- our money is DEVALUING as we speak- thanks to govt “inflation” and govt debts and govt meddling with interest rates! And yet they wonder why we wont save for our old age? HAHAHAHAHA!)

Second, many of the people in Toronto’s emergency shelter system are refugees, and yet Ottawa continues to set immigration policy in the absence of any meaningful input from Toronto’s municipal government.

(AS we have said- city leaders DO NOT want to provide input- they LIKE things as they are- except they want other levels of govt to gather money to be given- no strings attached- to city leaders- it’s a great deal- on set of leaders takes the hit for high taxes and another set of leaders gets to use the tax to buy vote for themselves! Is it any wonder that federal Hogs are not responding to Jackass Tory?)

This despite the fact the vast majority of refugees who come to Canada end up in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.

(Federal politicians know that City of Toronto already gets TEN TIMES MORE in transfer payments from the province than other Ontari-owe municipalities can hope for! Toronto greed is a fiscal black hole that federal LIE-berals see NO reason to try to fill! NO politician will take that popularity hit by raising taxes so that another level of govt can go on a vote buying spending spree!)

Third, the hard core homeless living on Toronto’s streets cannot be legally compelled to come in from the cold, even when their lives are in danger.

(Ontari-owe LIE-berals have increased the education budget FIFTY percent FASTER than health care budget even as numbers of students drop and numbers of aged people seeking medical aid INCREASE! LIE-berals have made their choices regarding the best places to buy votes! And the crazy homeless types are not reliable LIE-beral supporters anyway so screw them!)

While this is done to protect their rights, the consequence is that no matter how many shelter beds the city provides, we will never get all of the hard core homeless into emergency shelters.

(Homeless shelters are a very last resort for many due to theft and violence and bedbugs etc.)

This leads us to the fourth and largest issue identified by Tory in his remarks last week in the middle of the homeless shelter controversy.

That is that mental illness is a huge problem when it comes to addressing the issue of homelessness effectively, and again, it’s one the city cannot solve on its own.

Ontario’s ongoing mental health crisis is the root cause of much of the homelessness we see on our streets.

(And LIE-beral refusal to deal with either the mentally ill or the loopholes in our immigration policy are at the heart of the homeless so called “crisis”!)

This will not change as long as treatment and community supports for the mentally ill and their families are lacking.

(WE START by getting rid of LIE-berals and their twisted set of values!)

Not only does this contribute to homelessness, it is also the root cause of many of the fatal confrontations between police and the mentally ill.

As retired Supreme Court judge Frank Iacobucci concluded in his review of Toronto police use of force guidelines in 2014: “The effective functioning of the mental health system is essential as a means of preventing people from finding themselves in crisis in the first place. There will not be great improvements in police encounters with people in crisis, without the participation of … municipal, provincial and federal governments because … they are part of the problem and need to be involved in the solution.”

Sadly, there will also not be great improvements in finding permanent housing for the mentally ill, until that happens.

(Our nation is stony broke- with an ongoing fight between LIE-berals and others regarding what to do with the last of our money- does it go to civil service union Hog pensions or to dealing with mentally ill people who need keepers for their own protection? LIE-berals have shown us THEIR priorities!)

I see there is one poster on the forum who finds many posts "too long and boring" to read. I'm wondering if the real problem is there are too many big words he can't understand. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Here is an example of the poisoned version of democracy that civil service union Hogs want to ram down our throats.



And we all KNOW that NDPers are even more fond of unions than LIE-berals are! And NDP win means things will get even more one sided against ordinary people!



Our debts could soar at lightning speed under NDPers- that LUNATIC Horvath could make RAE DAYS LOOK LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS- considering how deep in debt LIE-beral Wynne-bag has already put us! With some comments of my own in brackets):

Unions fight Ontario rules on third party election ad spending

Unions fight Ontario rules on third party election ad spending

TORONTO — A coalition of Ontario unions that has spent millions on attack ads targeting Progressive Conservatives during past election campaigns is fighting a Liberal law that limits how much third parties can spend on election advertising.

The Working Families group has filed a constitutional challenge against Bill 2, alleging the law that took effect last year infringes on its rights to free expression and free association.

(Oh the irony- LIE-beral biters get bitten! For decades, LIE-berals have been engaged in a HUGE conflict of interest! For decades LIE-berals have benefiting from civil service union Hog votes- LIE-berals BUYING those votes with extravagant pay and solid gold pensions that are so rich that ordinary Cdns are not allowed- by LAW- to receive such rich benefits! And Hogs respond with ads attacking anybody who threatens their costly LIE-beral created gravy train set up!)

The group says the law effectively restricts how organizations and individuals can participate in the election process.

(Well YES! Bigot engaged in gross conflict of interest SHOULD NOT be permitted to engage in making hugely biased propaganda!)

Under the law, both political parties and the special interest groups known as third parties have caps on how much they can spend on political advertising during election campaigns and in the six months leading up to them.

It’s the first time third parties, who have exerted considerable influence in past elections, have spending limits.

(Yes- and for the first time LIE-berals are really afraid that Hogs will turn away and support NDP since the current generation of Hogs seems willing to forget the old NDP Bob Rae Ontari-owe disaster! There is even a fear that Hogs might turn to Green Party airheads since both NDP and Greens have said “Me Too” in response to LIE-beral style policy! A quick look at Green Party web site reveals that Greens have basically stolen much of the LIE-beral platform and not just taken policy from Our idiot Boy Justin- Greens have also recycled LIE-beral policy from the Pierre Trudeau era!)

A spokesman for the Ministry of the Attorney General says the government believes the rules comply with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

“The government’s objectives regarding pre-writ third party advertising rules were to level the playing field in election contests that now arise in a fixed election date environment, well in advance of formal election campaigns,” the spokesman said, noting that the rules also aim to ensure debate on key issues is not “unduly stifled.”

(HAHAHAHA!!!! LIE-berals want a level playing field? How is it that LIE-berals benefited for years from Hog support in exchange for gravy without complaint? If Conservatives had benefited from corporate CEO`s telling their employees to vote Conservative in exchange for a BIG raise in pay- LIE-berals would scream FOUL! And now LIE-berals are in desperate political trouble and they are terrified that Hogs will abandon them- and that LIE-beral fear seems justified as ETFO- the Elementary teachers union is throwing its support behind NDP! I guess NDP offered MORE GRAVY than LIE-berals?)

In its application to the court, Working Families said it wants the provisions related to third-party spending struck down.

(“Working Families” is such a nice, quaint sounding name for a bunch of rabidly gravy hunting civil service union Hogs!)

Its spokesman, Patrick Dillon, alleges the law unfairly targets such groups and restricts how they can bring issues before the public.

“The restrictions placed on groups like Working Families are designed to stifle free speech and participation at the most crucial time, during an election,” he said in a statement.

(What a pile of fresh, ripe, steaming, straight from the back of the Bull, organic fertilizer! Working Family Hogs want to STIFLE free speech so the only message the public gets is the UNION and LIE-beral version of truth and reality! Hogs are presenting a view of democracy that is a real as the crap that Soviet era Pravda used to spew at us! And LIE-berals are working hard to stifle ANY critic of LIE-beral policy by using their Islamophobia crap and Human Rights Kangaroo Court harassment to punish their critics!)

“We have a situation currently where the issue of the minimum wage is a concern to the labour movement,” he said. “Under the new law, if two labour groups raise this issue in support of a minimum wage increase, are they violating the rules? Does it mean we can’t share information? Does it mean that any money we spend on this issue is going to be counted as part of our limits? The way the current law is written raises serious concerns.”

(The major concern of the minimum wage to Hogs is THEIR NEED for steady inflation in our stagnant and grossly indebted economy! If there is inflation- or at least the ILLUSION of inflation- then it is easier for LIE-berals to “justify” giving Hogs MORE of those nice pay raises they ALWAYS DEMAND! Hogs currently hold hundreds of billions of dollars in LIE-beral pension IOU`s- money that LIE-berals promised in exchange for past Hog voting support- but we did not have the money then and we certainly do not have it now! Any effort to gouge such money out of our pockets will break our economy!)

(The public is very worried about the massive spree of looting and pillaging that LIE-berals will embark on if they win the June election- the spree that will BE ESSENTIAL if LIE-berals are to meet even a portion of their promises! So LIE-berals have acted to silence Hog advertisers and try to limit public anger at the gross conflict of interest that Hogs and LIE-berals have set up!)

(In addition- ALL democratic govts have come to the same conclusion- that any business that has a monopoly should be regulated more firmly than other types of business with multiple competitors! Thus the reluctant LIE-beral effort to silence Hog advertisers is not a restriction of free speech- rather it is a LONG OVERDUE defence of real democracy!)

(And what are we to make of the announcement by ETFO- the Elementary teachers union that they have chosen to thtow their support behind NDP! I guess NDPers offered more gravy than LIE-berals? And how many other union Hogs might be thinking of a similar desertion of LIE-berals in favour of NDP? This question keeps LIE-berals awake at night!)

Likely a little less than the sum of the taxes I pay. :lol:




Here is an article for those who think Doug Ford is some sort of SINNER who needs to be shoved off the stage because he is not a perfect candidate for sainthood!

I was sitting there watching ther evening news and letting my sleepy mind drift a little after a busy day and some thoughts came to me. Firstly- I ask how big a sin it is that Doug Ford PAID OUT OF HIS OWN POCKET for 65 Conservative Party memberships? After all NOBODY was out of pocket except DOUG- to the tune of 65 memberships at $10 Cdn each- for a total of $650.00!

And then I started thinking back to the death of NDPer Jack Layton during which time the public sent in donations for a monument to our most famous socialist airhead- and of course the NDP got more funds than they needed from good union Hogs and simply diverted several hundred thousand dollars to other accounts- which happens to be ILLEGAL under Revenue Canada and Election Canada Law!

Note the discrepancy here- Ford is personally out of pocket $650 bucks- while Ndpers are screwing around with several hundred grand- which they SHOULD have declared and chose not to!

And what of the federal Ndp cousins under Tom Mulcaire- you remember him right? He was the leader whose party got caught MIS-USING A MILLION DOLLARS of our tax money on dis-allowed office expenses! Oh dear- that Ford boy is looking more and more like a bargain by the day! The guy is so cheap he finances HIS OWN little scandalous storms in a tea cup[ instead of hitting tax payers!

Then I thought of an old TVO/The Agenda show I saw at the tale end of the Chretien LIE-beral adscam theft of 3 billion dollars! The host Paikin had invited former LIE-beral finance minister John Manley on the show as well as LIE-beral finance minister and very lame duck former prime minister John Tuner- and they told a VERY FUNNY STORY about an early LIE-beral leadership convention!

The population of Brampton was growing rapidly with LOTS of Sikhs moving in and LIE-berals saw them as a source of new voters- to BUY- and major efforts were made by certain LIE-beral leadership candidates to sign them up- which ANNOYED some other LIE-berals who did not like seeing all these Johnny come lately types pushing in and beginning to dominate party politics! So a plan was hatched in preparation for the party leadership vote:

Somebody hired several large buses and made it known to the newly signed Sikhs they could have a free ride to party head quarters where the leadership vote was to be taken. The Sikhs- pleased and excited by this chance at full participation in Cdn democracy- jumped at the chance.

Three big buses fully packed with Sikhs arrived in the Ontari-owe Science Centre parking lot- well after dark - and well after Centre closing time on a cold winter night in February. The bus drivers expressed surprise at the lack of welcoming committee and they quickly explained to the Sikhs that they would go and seek aid- the drivers disappeared into the shadows and hopped into a waiting car- AND WENT HOME!

And there was Manley and Turner- guffawing in glee and speculating how long it took for the Sikhs to smell a LIE-beral RAT? As this was in the days BEFORE cell phones- the poor Sikhs no doubt had a miserable time of it while waiting for enough taxis to be summoned to haul them back to Brampton!

This cautionary tale is one of those banana peel jokes- you know it has to hurt but the wipeout is just so FUNNY! And yet......how FUNNY is it that the Sikhs paid out good money to join the LIE-beral Party in good faith and got screwed out of a chance to participate? How funny is that? And YOU KNOW those Sikhs did not get their membership money back either!

So here is a fun question- how big a heel does Ford look like- since he pays his own way- compared to his political competition who use other peoples money so carelessly?
