So far, chemistry in game one for the @MapleLeafs is interesting. A little loose on the ice but pretty good in the #BowensBooth between @ToddCrocker and @Jim_Ralph!
Who will blink first in the Carney-Trump Trade War? This week's special edition of On the Ledge features contributions from @billcarrolltalk @genevalaitis and the Honourable @Kathleen_Wynne. #onpoli Have a listen. Lemme know what you think.

Wonder if @POTUS sees any irony in acting as a champion for Balogun, who only is eligible to play for the U.S. because of birthright citizenship.
He was born in Brooklyn, and not Britain where he was raised, because his mother gave birth to him prematurely while visiting the U.S.
He's surely an asset to America right now!
Trump on Balogun: "I saw the play, and I'm a person that loves sports ... that wasn't a foul. That wasn't even an infraction ... this referee, who is a little bit suspect if you check his past. He made a call that nobody could believe ... he's our best player, or one of our best players. And he gave him a red card. I didn't know what that meant ... yes, I asked for a review by FIFA."
Somebody got slapped.
NEW: Education Minister Paul Calandra is clarifying his comments on student absences after advising parents to "keep them in school"
“As part of the new absenteeism policy, which is intended to stop students from skipping out on school, parents will continue to have the ability to request that their child be excused from school for activities that are part of a well-rounded education, including sports, music, debate and other school-organized activities.”
Here's what the minister said yesterday:

For all the angst and handwringing over the CBC losing NHL hockey, the CBC reports “HNIC viewership on CBC had reached a 12-year low this past season, down 70 per cent from 2014, while the audience on Sportsnet's platforms has doubled in that time.”

Tell me why he's wrong? This sounds to me like something we should want to hear from the Leader of the Opposition. These are ALL good questions. Getting LNG to Europe makes sense...but how is it at all economical when B.C. is the point of departure?

Mayor Chow forgot about Scarborough yet again. I won’t.
I’ll get housing built and ensure Scarborough gets its fair share - because my map of Toronto doesn’t end at the 401.
That’s FLICKING BRUTAL. The OT refereeing was shameful. @Canadiens_NHL @Canes

NEW: An exhaustive review of roughly 200 flights in Doug Ford’s calendars reveal he essentially stopped flying commercial in late 2025, switching almost entirely to private flights.
Opposition blasted him during question period, but Ford insists he’s better than former premiers
BTW: On the Ledge is always FORWARD thinking! I surround myself with people who can see around poltical corners! @timhudak @Kathleen_Wynne @JohnWrightLive @KeithJohnLeslie

Now that Olivia Chow is officially running for reelection, will she run against @BradMBradford or @fordnation? Yes, Bradford is gaining recognition but will he run out of runway before Chow makes runways the issue?

Hmmm.....The Muddle Puddle just got muddier!
NEW: The latest in Premier Doug Ford's cellphone transparency saga:
The government's appeal of a court order has been dismissed, the IPC's directive to hand over records is back in force:
Civil servants have been told to “obtain from the affected party (Ford) any government or departmental related entries from his personal cell phone’s call.”
The government's retroactive FOI changes however could block that.
