Of the 52,247 people who have died from COVID-19 in Canada, I've linked 22,137 deaths to 2544 residential care facilities and 256 deaths to workplace COVID-19 infections. That's 2 new deaths and no new facilities added since April 2. docs.google.com/spreadsheets…

Major upset in Milton as 89-year-old Gord Krantz has lost. Unreal.
Replying to @AhmarSKhan
#BreakingNews the votes are in and Gord Krantz is on his way out! #MayorMinakakis is on his way in. The split vote took away any lead Gord might have had.

Great night for Toronto. Chow back as Mayor. Council gets more progressive. Ausma Malik + Alejandra Bravo are returning. Nate Erskine-Smith, Mike Layton, Chiara Padovani, Sara Ehrhardt and Diana Chan-McNally are joining.

This is the worst thing I have ever seen.
Happy anniversary to The Times They Are a-Changin', the truly cursed Bob Dylan Broadway musical that opened on this date in 2006 (and closed a couple weeks later). For "Like a Rolling Stone," they had the whole cast—wait for it—roll around on stones.

That was too close, Toronto. Will Chow learn a lesson?

cops: *literally bending over backwards to protect Brad Bradford signs* jesse brown: this should be investigated as a hate crime against me
Toronto police removed Brad Bradford campaign signs from the area in a Jewish Toronto neighbourhood where antizionist protesters rally every weekend. After the protest, cops put the signs back. The woman filming asks: is this not illegal?

If @WabKinew wants to renegotiate new legislation then he will be on the other side of the table. Not on the side of First Nations. He is a premier. He is advocating for First Nations assimilation by pushing for this.

People are now saying that the Houthis control the Red Sea. Whether that is still the case or not is yet to be seen, but they certainly do not control the Suez Canal or the SUMED network. Yes, imagine that: The Red Sea has another exit. Who knew?
Replying to @TankerTrackers
The Red Sea output can be closed down quite easily, and the only reason it hasn’t is because Iran wants to leave it as a last resort option if all other negotiating options fail. The Saudi defense ministers visit to Tehran today is quite telling.

Abolishing the Indian Act while also passing bill C5 while also declaring mines and pipelines projects of natural interests ... Carney's plans to strip Indigenous people of their rights over traditional territory could not be more obvious.
Mark Carney on abolishing the Indian Act: "I'm committed to a process that moves Canada beyond the Indian Act."

I have never been more invested in a graphic novel before.
We're up to page 130 in my horrifying and queasy graphic novel! If you like Junji Ito, Franz Kafka, German Expressionim and King Crimson, this might be for you.

A reminder that opposing this lady's insane genocidal opinion is illegal in 38 states.
"Carpet bomb them all". Speaking to The Guardian at an event ahead of Israel’s elections, a young Israeli woman called for Palestinians to be forcibly displaced from the Gaza Strip, saying they should be killed if they cannot be removed.
