Less than 50 pounds of fentanyl. Almost 10000 pounds have entered into Canada from the US in 2024. So the orange rapist can fuck off all the way to fuckoffville and then fuck off some more.

I’m sick of this dick measuring contest already.

I feel weird about it too. But in a weird way Doug Ford sometimes really does intend to do the right thing. When COVID hit, I will give him a millionth of a point that he actually did seem to want to be supportive, he was giving people who got laid off his phone number to call him anytime, and was quite emotional about it. It’s a shame he’s from such an unethical background and party, if he were ethical and wanted to be progressive, I think he actually could have impact. He’s not really a conservative, he’s just a brand for them. For some reason I hate him a tiny bit less than Mike Harris.

I saw someone on Facebook today talking about the orange rapist’s claim that the US subsidizes us. Um, no.

My coworker loves Trump loudly and obnoxiously. But she’s mad about the tariffs and votes for the NDP here, but says he’s “doing good things for his country”, but can’t identify what. She doesn’t know anything about weaponized disinformation, Russian troll farms, or dark money, and I very gently explained these things to her today, and saw this dim light turning on behind her eyes. So many people don’t know how badly they’ve been suckered by weaponized disinformation and dark money.

Who gives a damn about the deficit. When did that ever really matter?

She’s a union member. She does not get that this is not something Republicans support. It’s bizarre. She hates Doug Ford.

I am way more lefty than the Liberals but I have no problem holding my nose and voting for them, same as 2015. Jagmeet has been fairly disappointing as a leader, which is unfortunate but it’s time to move on for the party.

I also don’t want to not support American artists. Not people who can basically wipe their ass on money like Beyonce, but indie musicians and visual artists and so on. Art should not be punished by this. Unless they voted for Trump, in which case fuck them.

He’s really not though, and neither is Trump. They’re the face of their parties, but being the PC leader was just another way for Doug the drug dealer to get elected somewhere else after his brother made such a hot mess of municipal politics. He’s a brand. He bends any way the winds of popularity blow him. Probably many of the dyed in the wool conservatives of his party don’t like it, but the ones who want a job will hold their nose and go along.

My (Canadian) coworker is a giant Trump lover. Weirdly she votes NDP here and hates all the conservatives at every level. I don’t bother fighting her because there’s no sense in trying, but I asked her politely during the first batch of his Canada nonsense what she thought of what he was doing regarding us, and she has the nerve to tell me she “didn’t want to talk politics, but he’s doing good things for his own country”. How? He’s doing nothing but alienating everyone, claiming it’s because of fentanyl at our borders. Less than 1 percent of the fentanyl that crossed the border came from us. They could literally end up in the dark, and Doug Ford the drug dealer says he’ll cut their power off with a smile on his face, and considering the wave of popularity being anti Trump gave him I don’t rule it out altogether.

This is what a global far right power grab looks like, creating chaos everywhere.

Maybe buy some groceries and donate them to a food bank to get rid of it? Then at least someone in need gets something.

A doctor I worked with who was born in Canada but had been working in the US decided to move back to Canada and work with us, I guess he and his family wanted to get out of the states. Well, his family hated it here, I guess just not used to our way of life, and he had lots of criticism of how OHIP does not fund things (thanks Doug the drug dealer) and bitched all the time, and so last summer he went and secretly got a new job, his family moved back to the US ahead of him, and he hung out here for the fall and announced on October 31st that he was quitting and going back to the states. I didn’t see him until the day after the election and I asked him where he was moving to, and he told me, but he said now he didn’t know because of the election. Well, he moved after all, I mean his family was already there, but now that the US pulled 880 billion out of Medicare which is all of Medicare alone and a lot of people lost their jobs and therefore their insurance, and funding is being pulled out of science and medicine in other places, I don’t think he’ll have a good time of it. He was pretty arrogant about how badly he thought we did things, and while I agree that the conservative Ontario government sucks the rigid cock of Satan, it’s not like that!

However OHIP really needs to pay many doctors more. Family doctors deserve a huge raise, and many subspecialties are poorly paid for the amount of education and work they require. For example, MS neurologists and movement disorders neurologists are paid very poorly and those patients require a LOT of work.

Conservatives deeply fear change.
