Criticizing them (as Liberal Fraser does here) often plays into his hands.

Calling bullshit on the rich-kid is a better tack IMHO. 2/2

I’ve often noted that Fords meta-branding is trying to appear as combo of John Goodman (from Rosanne) and Tony Soprano.

These stories help him, which is why he “recounts” them and which is why they are likely often made-up bullshit.

NEW: Doug Ford today recounted telling an alleged shoplifter he was "going to kick your ass all over the parking lot" after slipping his OPP security detail in the summer.

@JohnFraserOS said the premier's behaviour was irresponsible. #Onpoli

Just wild advanced stats. Top 5 Nux in xGF% are bringing it. But they’re the only ones above water. The bottom 6 are in single didgits 😬

Like watching a team in shellshock.

Aw dang. Looking for Mr. Goodbar is still one of my faves.

Diane Keaton made ANNIE HALL and LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR in the same year and deserved the Academy Award for either performance as far as I’m concerned.

I mean, not like the time they gave it to Kissinger or anything, but this more in line with the Obama win: someone who advocated violent overthrow of the 2018 democratically-elected gov, who's got links to Likud and who wants to apparently sell off state assets to the rich.

Pretty sure they boycotted the 2018 election with the opposition becasue they knew they were gunna lose. Then backed foreign intervention in Venezuela in 2020 including the foreign-imposed leader Juan Guaido. Wants to privatize Venezuela's state assets. 1/

In Ontario, they already have this. The zoning doesn’t really matter: it’s the use. If it’s zoned commercial but used to live in residentially then residential rent control applies.

Remember when he covered NIN and everyone was like “what a square!”

They can do that if they have your address, which they don’t normally have unless they have some connection to parking enforcement. If they do there’s an enforcement mechanism. If not, they usually can’t do anything if you don’t pay.

Sometimes they have agreements with municipalities though. However that would normally be printed somewhere on the ticket itself.
geordiedent.bsky.social
Enforceable tickets are usually issued by municipalities. This seems like a private company telling you you have to pay…and if you don’t I’m not sure there’s anything they can actually do?
geordiedent.bsky.social
Not 100% sure, but that might not be an enforceable ticket

I did a "helping leftists understand the stock market" series about 10 - 15 years ago and was immediately taken by how many TSX/60 companies got their start as Nationalized Crown corporations.
