Both the launch of the government-operated PlayOLG platform in 2015 and the introduction of a competitive private online gambling market in 2022 were followed by large increases in contacts [to ConnexOntario]. These findings suggest large increases in problematic gambling, changes in help-seeking for gambling, or both.

We compared changes in gambling-related contacts to total contact volume for mental health and addictions. We used total contact volume to control for changes in population-level mental health or awareness of ConnexOntario.

As DrNateH on reddit said, Ford's "agenda is to ultimately turn Ontario into Las Vegas."

Thanks to Doug Ford's Bill 5, it will not be subject to a provincial environmental assessment.

Making it easier to build in Canada is a good thing regardless of the party in power at the federal or provincial level.

 

Terence Hubbard acknowledged the project will cause adverse effects, but said there are ways to address this other than through an impact assessment, including federal and provincial legislation like the Species at Risk Act, Fisheries Act and Mining Act.

Look either use antifascist or gtfo here trying to double play the meaning of words by using Antifa. I'd hope CAF members are smart enough to identify with being against fascism without aligning themselves to antifa. Seriously, in the context of the article antifa is the left wing political movement. For you to claim otherwise just comes off as being facetious.

Intruder as in someone who breaks into a residence. Trespassing is not enough according to Canadian law. And Canadian law already punishes excessive force (there was a conviction regarding a case in recent years where the victim had chased the intruder and thus became a criminal themselves). So you're literally just fear mongering

Unhinged to compare self-defence causing bodily harm to a literal terrorist organization.

 

A Lindsay, Ont., apartment tenant charged with assault last summer following a bloody pre-dawn fight with an intruder in his home will no longer face prosecution over the incident.

No more censorship. Opinion regarding the Tumbler Ridge massacre and the shooter should never be suppressed.
