Moral Compass

As a child of Holocaust survivors I am horrified by
what appeared to be a Nazi salute by Elon Musk
during Trump's inauguration.  These are the kinds
of people Trump has around him, people who will
 shape the US political  and social direction for the
next four years. This contagion will continue to
spread until it's stopped in its tracks. What has 
happened to the world's moral compass?

Poilievre and Musk

Considering Elon Musk appeared to give the Nazi salute, not
just once but twice, at Donald Trump's inauguration rally.
and that he has endorsed Pierre Poilievre as his preferred |candidate
for our next prime minister I would like to ask, "Do you accept
the endorsement of Elon Musk?"

Ford and Election Call

Doug Ford can call the election. I don't care,
as long as the Ontario Progressive Conservative
Party pays the full cos of $150 to $200 million.

FARE EVASION

I use transit. I recently sent an email to TTC management expressing
my dismay at the amount of fare evasion rampant on the bus and streetcar
system. I watched as people used the back doors, and did not tap their card.
Not one or two, but 17 evaders on one short bus trip. I proposed that all
riders should board at the front doors to fix this problem, and was told that
“the TTC was trying to eliminate lines to give commuters ease of use.” The
TTC relies on fare collection for a large part of its revenue. How can we have
a world-class system when fare evasion is costing the system millions? As a senior,
with the tax increase, I can ill afford an increase in fares when I am in danger of l
osing my home. Mayor Olivia Chow has frozen fares, but what will happen in the future
when she must raise fares or raise taxes further to combat rampant fare evasion?
When will the TTC and city council admit that all-door boarding is failing?

Fox Honor Long Overdue

It is long overdue--Terry Fox will be featured
on the $5 bill. I have just read the book
Forever Terry by his brother Darrell. It is a
collection of inspirational letters written by
 50 well-known Canadians, including Jann Arden,
Daryl Sittler and Bobby Orr. 

The next generations needs to have an answer ready
when pessimists among us state that "one man
can't really make a difference". The response can be
made in two words: Terry Fox . his book is a must-
read for every Canadian.

and the growing gap between rich and poor. laying out
a blueprint for building a just future for our  children  ,
and our grandchildren and generations to come.

SINKING SHIP

  I'm surprised any possible contenders for the Liberal leader don't consider
themselves aa cannon fodder, as anyone who heads this party will be a
prime target for constant shots from the opposition . I se no future for
the leader of the Liberals; whoever takes over, their fate is sealed.

FORD FOR PM

Here is a thought: Doug Ford for prime minister of Canada! Let’s face it, with no
functioning federal government, he is doing most of the work defending our jobs and
identity. Maybe add Danielle Smith as deputy prime minister? Let’s stop buying American
wine and spirits, etc. Who needs U.S.-made cars, we can make our own.

BLAME GAME

Despite the huge amount of harm Trudeau’s authority did to Canada, I feel genuinely sorry for him now
that he’s being stabbed in the back by his many friends who either fully supported his actions or persuaded
him to take those actions. He’s a man who has lost everything but his money; the actions of the Liberal Party
now reveal itself for what it is. Don’t blame Justin alone.
