Crack the Sky. 851pm on Thursday in Chicago during a massive storm.
1/ Canadians are getting clobbered by the cost of living, turbo-charged by food and fuel hikes thanks to the horrible, illegal US/Israeli war on Iran.
Meanwhile Big Oil is laughing its way to the Big Banks – with $90 billion in wartime profiteering expected this year alone.

Federal New Democrats stand with the Ontario NDP and the people of Toronto against Doug Ford’s destructive Billy Bishop scheme.
The Prime Minister has the power to shut this down once and for all. Protect Toronto’s waterfront, reject Ford’s Wall Street giveaway!
The cost of living is already out of control. Corporations don’t need another way to rip off Canadians at the checkout.
The federal government needs to do the right thing and ban surveillance pricing before it drives up prices even more.

Canada’s public infrastructure is not up for sale.
My address at the @novascotiandp.bsky.social convention.
When the system is rigged for the rich while the 99% struggle to afford the basics, public ownership is how we take back the economy.

2/ Tax the excess profits.
Use the money to ease the everyday emergency of just trying to get by.
We're calling on PM Carney to act. It's simple: do the right thing.
