Limestone City #ygk #Ontario 😊Leave this place a little better than you found it. Dogs 🐶 Community 🏡 Growing a perfect tomato 🍅
“Planned changes to Ottawa’s Canada Health Transfer in the 2028-2029 fiscal year will likely result CUTS of more than $50 billion FOR HEALTH CARE in #Canada ’s provinces and territories over the subsequent decade, a report published by the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions (CFNU) concludes.”
I secured a tub of the limited edition ‘Tragically Chip’ ice cream made by Kawartha Dairy! Created with 🇨🇦@thetragicallyhip.bsky.social My Gen X #ygk Kingstonian heart is very happy at this moment! Proceeds to charity 🩷
IQair aggregates information from several sources. PupleAir - are recording ‘0’ in Kingston right now. AirNow. gov shows us in 51-100 Moderate - but we are pretty close to the boundary with 101-150 Unhealthy for Sensitive groups. 🤷🏻♀️ I am wearing a mask outside.
IQ Air ⬇️ reports the #ygk air quality as 81 (1:51 pm) from 1 reporting station - run by ON Ministry of Environment. There were 2 stations earlier today - maybe one was malfunctioning as it was showing ‘green’ air quality.
Back on one of the few favoured topics that he can hold in his mind.
I dunno - ⬇️ THIS ⬇️ screams pretty loudly to me. And what it’s saying is Poilievre isn’t concerned about the wellbeing of #Canada. 🇨🇦 And that he’s WAY TOO COSY with some of the worst elements of the American GOP.
🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ she was probably describing what was the start of her oxygen saturation dropping -> it ‘felt like’ anxiety or stress to her.
Not your ordinary daffodils! Love adding some new varieties into the mix. #FlowerReport #BloomScrolling #narcissus #Ontario
From higher in the thread. I expect most family doctors will soon be notifying patients.
Excited to spot ‘Dutchman’s Breeches’ blooming in my backyard!! #Ontario #spring #ephemerals
There is NOTHING the USA can do to make me purchase American alcohol products. Bluster and threaten all you want - it won’t make any difference to me. #SorryNotSorry #ViveleCanada 🇨🇦
Privatization = 300% INCREASE 🚩in the costs to the City. 🚩Less service to residents. No backup if a crossing guard can’t come to work. 🚩Poorer work conditions for the guards. Sometimes the TPS IS the better operator, regardless of what their haters say. See also: Toronto beach lifeguards.
Ford has spent $725 MILLION of OUR dollars on private nursing agencies. While our hospitals lay off nursing staff - like UHN recently cutting its dialysis nurses.
From @eliothiggins.bsky.social ⬇️ I'm seeing a lot of these fake Donald Trump truths being posted on BlueSky (and lesser sites) at the moment. It’s pretty easy to check, and you owe it to yourself and other people before sharing it.
Apples ⬇️ selling for $ 0.44 / lb. at Loblaws or all places. Product of USA (Apples typically sell at $2.49 / $2.99 /lb) It’s almost as though the demand for US-grown produce has fallen. The apple 🍎 variety is ‘Envy’ 😂 - not so much these days, thanks for asking. #buyCanadian
One of the lovely things I’ve discovered while endeavouring to buy non-US products. This beautifully packaged pasta from 🇮🇹 Italy ⬇️
It’s trade - not some abusive marriage. Free trade agreements have, on balance, benefited USA. #Canada is absolutely prepared to weather a difficult time as we economically divorce from our now abusive trade partner. Our new trade relationships will take time to get going - but we will be free.
