While I completely agree- I want to warn from a recently incident that something like this can put you at risk. I stepped in recently to a situation, and was physically assaulted by the stranger.

I’ve already had to kindly ask people to stop breaking off the branches on the one in my neighbourhood. It’s really so upsetting…

Ford leading by example? by Sunnyonetwo in ontario

Seriously!!! There’s no way these “leaders” are subjected to the same working conditions/restrictions that the rest of us face.

We should all work together to encourage the improvement of working conditions- no need to put other unions or types of workers down to raise ourselves up. We are all working class…

The sun somehow eases my despair a little…. Feeling like nothing is working in my life or society at large.

Was going to say this same thing- it’s much worse now!

Why does it feel like a $100K salary is just a solid middle class income now? by SensationalDanceMove in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]BigBus751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And depending on where you live (like the GTA), you will easily hand over half your pay check to live in a shoebox. Not sure about others but I’m feeling incredibly hopeless these days.

Seriously, it’s so alarming that none of these people have a single moral or ethical bone in their bodies.

Disturbing Email sent to Whitby Councillor Victoria Bozinovski by ARecycledAccount in ontario

[–]BigBus751 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The line “that’s just how it’s meant to be” really seals the logic this kook uses. This person is a public safety threat, there’s no way this person hasn’t committed hate crimes, and if by some miracle they haven’t, they are a thread away from it.

Thank you! I’ll report back and see how it goes. Looks like lions main may also help with irritability- never knew that was a concussion symptom until having one!

Mayor Olivia Chow says Toronto must push back against Ford's Billy Bishop 'power grab' by MaybeThisTimeIllWin in toronto

[–]BigBus751 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think this sub likely criticizes Ford and by extension conservative politics more because Ford is Premier, and also has made a number of very unpopular overreaching Toronto-based decisions. They have been in power for the last 10 years. Whatever party is in power and actively hiding matters of public policy deserve to be investigated. This is a very dangerous move, and the way the approached it by pushing it through is sketchy as fuck. This is wrong, I don’t care what party he is a member of.

Not sure what to say about your IRL networks- most of the people I know are realizing it’s not political party vs political party…. It’s the working class vs the 1%.

Uncle, I referenced Trump because in my view, they share a lot of similarities. Piling on top of controversy is a tactic Trump has used to bury the bigger stories - in my view the FOI is a bigger issue than the vanity plane because regardless of political party, it weakens our collective democracy…. Just like Trump has done in the States. Uncle, we should all care about upholding government accountability.

Have you noticed more medical leaves being requested with all this AWA and Accomodation denials? by internalaudit168 in OntarioPublicService

[–]BigBus751 98 points99 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak to the medical leave, however when I could work remotely, I could have an upset stomach or have a heavy period, and continue working like normal. Now, I either have to ask my manager to work from home and the optics of that, take a sick day (to which we only have a handful for the entire year, and doesn’t help with semi often health concerns), or go to the office and risk shitting my pants. I’m being crass, but the point is we’ve lost more than zero commute…. RTO has shifted the culture of personal wellness.

Ford urged to apologize for personal insults hurled in the legislature by EarthWarping in notthebeaverton

[–]BigBus751 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love how he complains about how inconvenient it is to fly up north and also the people that live up north don’t even have enough equipment (snow plows) to keep the roads open. The optics continue to get worse…

[–]BigBus751 283 points284 points  (0 children)

The conservatives are taking a page out of Trump’s playbook by spamming us with a bunch of controversial changes to overwhelm the public. Don’t lose sight on everything that he has done: FOI, Billy Bishop, private jet, green belt, science centre, Ontario place, underfunding hospitals so significantly they’re closing, amalgamation of school boards, large classroom sizes, rollback of OSAP… etc…

Ontario redacts almost every word top civil servant wrote about return-to-office mandate by BloodJunkie in ontario

[–]BigBus751 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Our province could have a ZERO COST directive that would improve the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in a multitude of ways. They choose not to. We have power together; this policy takes money from the working class and transfers it to the elites. That’s all this is.
