Umm, isn't 24 Sussex a good 20 or 30 minute walk away from the Rideau Hall grounds? Not exactly across the street.

Two thoughts One, this makes me happy to be Canadian. The synagogue helping not the arson I mean. Two, when I am done my semester, who would like to see me make a Helsing style effort post on how the LPC won from an insider? I will not spare punches about our fuckups, but I would also like to note that the LPC win was not entirely based on the NDP vote collapse. It was a factor, especially in Quebec, but there is alot more.
I would read the poo poo out of this.

Fed a ballot into the scanner/shredder machine today, not much hope for my riding because lol 905's, at least Oshawa will 100% go orange.
At this point I'm wondering if the 905 will be the only solidly blue part of the province, with every other region seeing a mixture of support.

That being said, I'm still voting NDP in a 905 riding that's virtually guaranteed to go PC.

I'll laugh even harder when the PCs have no choice but to play nice with the NDP in a minority government.

Although the true comedy option in that scenario would be throwing their toys from the pram and forcing another election in a few months, and getting utterly decimated at the polls from a fed up electorate.

“Our sentences aren’t tough enough for people with guns that commit violent gun acts,” Ford, who refused to speak to waiting reporters when he left the city hall meeting, later told CTV.

“I think we have to toughen up the sentences and we can’t let these people out in a few years on parole and let it happen again. Or somebody gets arrested on a Friday night and they get bail and are back out on Wednesday for retribution. That’s absolutely unacceptable and I think there was a consensus in the (meeting) room on that and I think the laws have to be changed.”

Tory spokesperson Don Peat said the mayor “is on record talking about the need for tougher gun laws and parole laws.”
Who needs to fund mental health services when tougher gun laws can deter shooters that don't have full control over their decisions and actions?

I'll eat my own hair if Ford even tries to address Toronto's homeless problem in a way that doesn't involve rounding them up and shipping them to labour camps in northern Ontario.

I really worry what will happen when Ford decides to introduce legislation to upload Toronto's subway to provincial control, something he actually had on his platform. Will the city have any real way to challenge this when he decides its time to pursue this or can he just use the NWC to push that through with no challenge or debate?

Common sense leadership really worked out well for Toronto in the 90s.

I had to do the same in Ottawa after moving back to Ontario from Quebec. Having a photocopy of my previous DL didn't help. Had to come back 3 times. For various reasons, including "why does your name have accents on your birth certificate and not on your passport?"

Luckily I had access to a car, still driving all the way to Gloucester and back on my lunchtime was a challenge.

Drive Test sucks.
Getting hosed over by Drive Test is a proud Ontario tradition and initiation ritual for newcomers.

There are probably things I'm missing. This is just off the top of my head and I should spend some time getting you sources later today.
A lot of dumb poo poo has happened very quickly so it's easy to miss some things, but it's probably worth mentioning the sudden cancellation of funding for satellite university campuses throughout the 905 just hours after Patrick Brown was elected mayor of Brampton. One of the campuses effected was Ryerson's planned Brampton campus.

Patrick Brown is releasing a tell-all book saying he was targeted by his party in an attempt to ruin him. Seems like he's trying to drag his rivals down with him.
