Ontario’s deficit has grown by more than $3 billion in the past few months as the province continues to face economic headwinds blowing up from the U.S.

In an economic update delivered on Thursday, the Ford government said the deficit for 2026-27 is now projected to be $16.9 billion, up from the $13.8 billion that was projected in the budget tabled back in March.

NDP is bifuricated between labor reps and people wanting to add more letters to LGBTQ+, and surprisingly, the voters don't care.

    I hope they always keep their love and support for all the letters. They could do it a little better tbh. That poor gay indigenous kid out there should have someone in power giving a fuck about him. God knows Conservatives never will.

    They also gotta remember all the other issues as well. They need to highlight the issues of the workers instead of letting christian nationalists pull them into culture wars.

    This country even elected an evangelical christian prime minister who was forced to swear never to touch abortion and marriage equality. Is there room for improvement? Sure. Majority of the country is overall better than it used to be. For now, cost of living and housing has to be their focus otherwise they are not winning and forming government any time soon.
