NEWS AGGREGATOR & COMMENTS*

May Great Spirit bless 🙏

I pray that you all be well today. Yesterday, I went to see my stomach specialist in the Big Smoke, Toronto. Interestingly, traffic into the city was slow, but everything went according to schedule, with some time left over. The traffic on the return trip was slower and heavier. We hadn't had supper, so we looked for a place to stop on the way home. The difficulty of finding a restaurant near the QEW in Oakville was surprising! We ended up at a "modern" McDonald's with automated ordering and a decor like a departure lounge. Three things I didn't like. The darned air conditioning was on when it's only 60°F outside. I'm a French Metis Canadian, not an Inuit, and I'm from southern Ontario. I'm more like Chilly Willy 🐧 I have to put on my overcoat 🧥 before opening the fridge door 🗄️🥹 Back home, they used to call me the "Wrapaho," because I was always cold and would wrap myself in a blanket when I was outside. And the poutine I ordered was not worth the money. All told, the trip went well

I went out to sit in my Green Space for a few moments, to do my best to relax and gather my thoughts after another bad start to the day, but I am feeling much better now. The air is cool again this morning, but at least it's a nice, bright sunny day. With the early morning sun shining brightly down on the new growth of leaves in the trees, they appeared actually to glow a golden green. Early mornings are very spiritual, especially the quiet ones like this. I can close my eyes and feel the early morning PEACE and HARMONY, that twilight zone of peace before the crazies wake up.

That's about it for my report from the newsroom, Beautiful bright sunny Thursday, May 21, 2026.

I would also like to add:

Question: What is happening with the healthcare crisis in Ontario May 20, 2026

🔹AI Overview

Ontario’s healthcare crisis is deepening as chronic provincial underfunding forces widespread hospital deficits and layoffs.

Primary Care Shortage:

The Ontario College of Family Physicians projects that up to 4.4 million Ontarians will be without a family doctor.

How bushmeat, burial rites and disinformation make the DRC an Ebola hotspot

In rural Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), a lethal Ebola strain has torn through local communities – claiming over 100 lives and triggering a global health emergency. The virus was first discovered in the DRC in 1976, and remains an enduring threat. The central African nation has seen 17 outbreaks, more than any other country – a severe outbreak between 2018 and 2020 left 2,299 people dead.

Ebola, an often fatal virus that causes severe symptoms, including high fever and both internal and external bleeding, originates in wildlife. It is transmitted to humans through close contact with the blood or fluids of infected forest animals, such as “fruit bats, porcupines and non-human primates” like monkeys, according to the World Health Organization (WHO)...

DNC releases autopsy of devastating 2024 election cycle

The release marks a reversal from the party's earlier decision to keep the full report under wraps.

VIDEO | Included:

The Democratic National Committee on Thursday published a sweeping internal autopsy of its 2024 collapse, as party chairman Ken Martin simultaneously released and repudiated the report, saying it “does not meet my standards.”

The release came after months of pressure on Martin, who told DNC members in a December message that the full report would not be public while the party instead focused “on implementing our findings.” “I am not proud of this product; it does not meet my standards, and it won’t meet your standards. I don’t endorse what’s in this report, or what’s left out of it...

Trump purged his Republican critics. Here's why he could soon regret it

Targeted GOP members now have nothing to lose by thwarting Trump's agenda in Congress

U.S. President Donald Trump is celebrating back-to-back victories in his push to oust his critics from the Republican Party, but there are clear signs that his revenge campaign could come back to bite him.

In the past few days, Trump succeeded in persuading Republican voters to block a pair of sitting GOP lawmakers from seeking re-election on the party's ticket this fall: Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie and Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy. Trump also endorsed a challenger to Sen. John Cornyn, a Texas Republican who has held the seat for 24 years but ran afoul of the president over perceived disloyalty. "He was not supportive of me when times were tough," Trump wrote on social media.

Nixon goes to finance, LaGrange swaps health roles in Alberta cabinet shuffle

Six ministers moved or promoted in advance of Premier Danielle Smith's announcement on separation referendum

Premier Danielle Smith has installed one of her most veteran lieutenants as Alberta’s new finance minister, in a cabinet shakeup announced in the shadow of a looming separatist referendum.

Jason Nixon, who’s been a senior minister for much of the United Conservative government’s seven-year reign, is now tasked with stewarding Alberta’s fiscal house through oil-price gyrations. He replaces outgoing finance minister Nathan Horner, who delivered the last three Alberta budgets but requested to be excluded from this reshaped cabinet because he isn’t running in next year’s election...
