    1. Doug Ford’s spring star is falling fast. Hurry up with lockdowns, slow down with vaccines. Shut everything down and tazer 10 year olds for skating…not what we voted for here in Ontario. Some Provinces are making better progress.

  1. Politicians need to just answer the questions. That’s what they get paid for, from our tax dollars, we employ them.

    1. What have you done genius? By all means run and win and govern smart guy. His dad was PM that’s some experience surely. But you would do better right? Go on then.

    2. @Todd Rocket These Conservatives still haven’t learned they have been saying Trudeau is dumb while he beat Harper and Scheer, OToole is next to go.

  2. Health Minister !! How did you obtain your Doctorate?, thru the thesis and theory exams or by actually administering to REAL medical patients?

  3. Not really a fan of Pallister but the reporter did ask why one is better than the other. Asking “Why the change ?” would have been a better way to phrase the question.

  4. Our governments (all levels) are the definition of insanity…they keep doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different outcome…INSANE.

  5. I love that this is considered “tense” in Canadian politics lol.. I don’t love that they “gin up” the title.

  6. Asking what a different minister brings to the table is like asking someone which of their children they love more? Okay…

  7. Their drug prescription is being tweaked. Off scopolamine and onto LSD. They are getting more agitated & paranoid.
