Ontario Majority Government 2022-2026 (?)

Might be a different story if the threatened LCBO strike happens.

Good point - especially since the polling was done well before the strike story was shared. Also, not liking beer/wine in the corner store didn't seem to affect the allure (at least at the time of the snapshot) of Team Blue Ontario.

There's a case to be made, though, that a strike could help make the case for mo' booze in mo' outlets. I stand to be corrected, but closed LCBO's still leave at least supermarkets with many (if not all) selections available to Mr. & Mrs. Ontario Voter.

Time will tell ...

Not sure why the Ontario Boomers and Golden Genners don’t like the idea of a depanneur selling your fave booze…

Paying hundreds of millions to end the contract a year early is part of it; not obliging all vendors to take back containers is another...

I always wonder why unions think this kind of action endears them to the people they serve. It only serves to make the call for diversification louder. They are their own worst enemies.

Meanwhile, you can by a basic still for $100.

Summer liquor chain strike, inflation above target...starting to feel like the '70s. Next will be musicians rediscovering prog rock (for some) and disco (for others).

Ontario PC party is down a member. Doug Ford has just turfed MPP Goldie Ghamari out of Ottawa for cozying up to British far right extremist ‘Tommy Robinson’. A few days back Rebel News brought him into Canada for a speaking tour. CBSA arrested him in Calgary for lying on his paperwork and hiding criminal past… Which given his history of anti-immigrant positions is just darkly hilarious. Anyway, Ghamari met up with him for an online streamed event, and caught serious flak both outside and, it would appear, within the party.

Very safe PC riding, so I don’t think this is Ford scrambling to protect a seat. She just screwed up that badly in contrary to the party’s values.

Ontario MPP removed from PC caucus over 'serious lapses in judgment'

Premier Doug Ford has removed a member of his caucus due to what he’s describing as 'serious lapses in judgment.' In a statement released Friday morning, the premier’s office said MPP Goldie Ghamari had been removed from the Progressive Conservative caucus 'effective immediately.'
