  • As a Canadian with half their family on either side of the Ontario/Quebec border, this shit has always pissed me off. All this animosity toward Quebec is not only ignorant, but also a driving force behind the separatist movement. The votes failed folks, that means Quebec is very much Canada and wants to stay that way. Accept that and pratice some fucking empathy with your countrymen instead of encouraging civil unrest.


  • What about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren’t even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.








  • He’s the premier of Ontario, our most populated province. Basically our version of a governor by USA standards. He also has more in common with Trump than not. There are a few political factors here that will make it very hard for him to win an election when the next one was scheduled, so he’s pulled a snap election early as a desperate attempt to stay in power. Expect to see more of his dumb ass until we vote at the end of the month, longer if this tariff bullshit continues.


  • Torontonian here. It might be worth asking, but I can tell you right now they’d laugh at you. Their boomer voting base doesn’t want to bother and they have big federal problems to worry about. Heck look at Scotland right now, some people suggested keeping cats out of conservation areas to protect bird species and everyone is freaking out. Despite being great for the environment, outdoor cat bans are not popular with voters.

    You may have more luck with your local councilor. Pet issues tend to be handled at the municipal level. Even your MPP would be a much better choice, assuming they aren’t conservative. However if you really want the situation fixed anytime soon, you’ll need to either get help from a charity like the Humane Society or take care of it all yourself.








  • Yes. I live on one of the major roads he’s removing the bike lane from and the entire neighbourhood is pissed. He’s always looking for creative ways to punish Toronto because we don’t vote for him.

    He’s only in power because ignorant and biased media like the article above convinced suburbanites to vote for him. His support in the cities and rural Canada is dismal but he keeps winning by offering things he can’t actually provide like one dollar beers and cheap gas.
