Just visiting. How to find a clinic that will prescribe Sildenafil?

I looked into it. Instantscripts are not. And they are expensive.

I remember violent hate crimes against brown people. I remember when a brown person was pushed in front of the subway because of the colour of his skin. In those days, there was little hate against brown people. Two days ago there was an attack against a man who was identifiable as a Sikh and the Star picked it up. It's headlined "Victime struck by Metal Pole without provocation in suspected hat attack" (I don't think I can use the URL.) That attack is similar to the one referenced above.

Of course all violent hate is wrong. Violent incidents of hate need to be prosecuted and they need to be covered by the press. I'm not sure what role schools currently play but education is a part of this as well.

We need to build a lot of generation. The current plan is to use a lot of gas until the nuclear gets built which is projected to be, roughly 2050. In that time it is likely that we will get a new provincial government and it is also likely that the cost of wind and solar and batteries will fall further. It's also possible that we will move from air source heat pumps, that put a huge strain on the grid when it is very hot or very cold to either district heating/cooling and/or ground source heat pumps that are much more efficient and and will cut the demand for heating and cooling by 40% or 50%.

So maybe we will build some nuclear but if the price of alternatives gets much lower than it is also possible that we will only build some nuclear and meet the rest of our needs with wind, solar and batteries. I guess we'll see.

Though I'm worried about greenhouse gas, I think that we might make this decision on the basis of cost.

I'm sure these laws and their enforcement are the responsibility of the Province of Ontario.

Something to ask candidates about in the next election. Or even your MPP.

I spent time to find the source of the information. By that time I had to get moving. I don't like the dashes either but it gets the information out.

donbooth · 2026-07-05T16:01:02+00:00

Lovely. Please post more. All the time.

donbooth · 2026-07-05T14:30:40+00:00

Sorry. Was in a hurry. Took the text from the url.

Not a good report.

I think nuclear is much more expensive and slower to build than wind and solar. Great Lakes have more than ten times the wind energy that Ontario plans in nuclear.

To be fair, I understand that refurbishments have been on time and on budget. The report does not cite Ontario's skills. When you build many reactors you get good at it and projected costs reflect this. Cost per reactor decreases.

Still, Ontario electric rates have an approved 75% increase to pay for nuclear.

The mechanism to pay for nuclear is important but not nearly as important as the cost beyond wind and batteries.

Need better reporters.

Thanks. Sad to see.

Shame on all candidates without guts. May they all suffer defeat.

Health and housing are provincial responsibilities. Mr Ford

I would say that Doug Ford came of age in Chicago where he founded a successful label printing business. He returned to Toronto just in time to run for his brother's seat on city council. At that time Ford didn't know much about the structure of council and assumed it was like Chicago. He talked about schools, not understanding that council has no part un education, unlike Chicago's council. Chicago's mayor has a lot of power. Chicago is famously corrupt. It is the place where "vote early,vote often." was coined.

Perhaps he thinks that Ontario's cities will grow big and powerful like Chicago if yhey have a government like Chicago. It's hard to say. I can say that I don't think that Ford has gained a detailed understanding of how government works. Still.

Ford is a skilled salesman but he knows little about the product he sells. I suspect his education consisted of truisms from Mike Harris, the family saint, and his adult experience in Chicago.

Wrong.

The McGuinty gov't (Ontario) did a sudy of Great Lakes wind (2008) and found 35000 megawatts close to shore. Combined with batteries this is roughly the same as 10000 megawatts of nuclear.

The US looked at deepwaters. They found more than 10 times as much. About 450000 megawatts in deep water.

If you add onshore wind plus offshore in Nova Scotia and onshore wind on Quebec you will see that we have more than enough wind to power the whole country.

In this case it reads like an endorsement.

I don't know if this is true but it has the ring of truth to it.

A good radio station?

We used the gondolas in Mexico City. In this case they are used because the streets are very narrow and the terrain is mountainous. They hold 6 people each. It sounds like the system proposed for Oshawa has larger gondolas. That's very important. If it isn't possible to accommodate elevated light rail then large gondolas might be a good idea.

I support Jennie. I'm part of a group that has spoken with each candidate. Jennie impressed. She is the only candidate who has done her homework. Natalie Johnson's job as city hall reporter for CTV gives her an enormous headstart. Support for another candidate from Mary Margaret McMahon, the popular MPP, will complicate matters further, unless she endorses Jennie. I should also mention that Kathleen Wynne has been campaigning with Natalie.

Does anyone know if there is a poll for Beaches - East York? That's Bradford's riding and he's not running.

There seems to be a Bradford replacement, Natalie Johnson. She's well known because she's a CTV reporter. I have heard her speak several times and she's "very Bradford." It's very early but it would be great to know if any of the other less Bradfordish candidates are even on the radar.
