THE PAIKIN PODCAST: Knives out for Pierre Poilievre?

VIDEO: Doug Ford tees off on ‘terrible bleeding-heart judges’
22He is just fed up and I don’t blame him…commit a crime, pay bail and within hours one is free to continue committing crimes. The system is allowing murderers out to re-commit, sexual offenders out to re-offend, wealthy white collar criminals get next to no punishment and just continue on with their privileged lives. Lastly criminals have more rights and loopholes than victims including their lawyers paid for if they work the system right while victims pay thousands for theirs!!He and the public have good reason to rant about many things, but like the rest of us he is forced to bite his tongue on many more.

PAIKIN PODCAST: Is Putin serious about ending the war?
26Trump must have investments in Russia to allow Putin to so obviously string him along.If Putin is rewarded with any Ukraine land for his invasion, he will just initiate another one in the near future.

VIDEO: Another day, another record-breaking fentanyl bust
26It needs to be done, but it’s too bad their successes are really only a drop in the bucket…the drug business is just too big and profitable to control.

COLUMN: Talk of Canada becoming 51st state leads to 'patriotic purging'
OrilliaMatters 3Well I’m not cutting my nose off to spite my face nor letting Trump deprive me of my way of living especially listening to Lee Greenwood songs or any other superior American entertainment. I bet a large majority of snowbirds will not be giving up their comfortable winters down south either regardless of what one reads and/or believes.

Poll finds 'strong support' for mandatory A/C in public facilities, rentals in Ontario
23Air-conditioning should not be mandated except maybe in new builds since reno costs could be exorbitant. Didn’t some nursing homes shut down because they could not afford sprinkler systems due to costs?! Portable a/c’s or fans can be purchased if needed by individuals.

Most Orillia schools get failing grade from Fraser Institute
OrilliaMatters 9Just be glad Orillia’s lowest scoring school is still better than over 1,000 schools in Ontario!!Scores cannot be raised without discipline which is rarely permitted in any school nowadays.Competition also gave students incentive to strive to do better than their peers, but that has also been removed. What do you expect!!

Back to the polls: Prime Minister Carney expected to call federal election Sunday
12I do not like either of them, but it is nonsensical to let a party stay in power when it has done so much damage to Canada…Carney is only one new man, all the other members will be the same likely with the same agenda as when Trudeau was in office.

Poll: Most wouldn't allow private households to let off fireworks
7We’ve had fireworks forever so why ban them now? There are more accidents involving cars do you want to ban them also? Having said that I do think we should compromise and only permit them on certain days of the year that way people can prepare their sensitive pets and autistic offspring.
