NEW: Ontario’s transparency watchdog has been forced to “intervene” after the solicitor general’s office repeatedly ignored orders to release information.

It’s part of a trend which has also raised questions about political interference. #OnPoli

"In March, the chairman of Denmark’s parliamentary defence committee said he regretted his role in choosing the F-35 for his country. “As one of the decision-makers behind Denmark’s purchase of F-35s, I regret it,” Rasmus Jarlov, MP for the Conservative People’s Party wrote on X." #cdnpoli #F-35
Will U.S. threats force Canada to buy the F-35?

At the same time Trump was talking about seizing Greenland from Denmark - the U.S. government took components stored in Denmark for Danish F-35s and shipped them to Israel. The Danish government had no way to block the U.S. decision

For anyone interested. It's in Norwegian though. Someone saw the solution from his apartment and went outside to solve it.

Agreed. I think he's made a pragmatic decision to put economy first now, in the wake of Trump.

Being less bad than the Conservatives is the Liberal's secret sauce and it has served them well. Canadians, not so much.

Labour MPs out here expecting to be thanked for getting rid of the two child benefit cap like they didn't literally vote to keep it last year.

Six months ago, Labour was spending every shred of political capital - up to and including suspending seven of its own MPs - to maintain the two child benefit cap.

Now, they're describing it's abolition as an overriding moral imperative.

Cynical, untrustworthy twisters.

My friend was a Labour Party member for decades. Resigned after Starmer's speech on immigration. Being the child of immigrants, it was the last straw for them.

Just heard Rachel Reeves have a pop at @zackpolanski.bsky.social thereby signifying that she is really quite alarmed by the rise in @greenparty.org.uk

And do she should be!

"We will always be on the side of working people", Farage's 'Letter to the Nation' says today.

What he neglects to admit is that Reform plans to cut £300+ billion from the public services that these "working people" rely on every day.

This does nothing to make me want to come back to Labour. Pathetic.
Watch as Rachel Reeves brands Greens leader Zack Polanski a 'keen hypnotherapist'

When he pulls off the Mark Carney mask at the end of his term and reveals he's actually Stephen Harper a few of us won't be surprised.

I am absolutely here for how Zack Polanski has rattled the entire establishment for having the temerity to suggest the super rich should pay more tax.

Fun fact: I did the official recording for one of the lectures once, by accident. Access didn't show up to do it, but I did.
