This is major news while regular folks still worry about their safety at home or while parking at a grocery store.

government gets caught running what looks like a billion dollar slush fund for his buddies .

Greenbelt land sold to developers connected to dougie.

ER wait times nearly doubled. hospitals literally taking out loans to make payroll.

and yet people don't go out and vote!

is it that nobody connects the dots between where their tax money goes and what they actually get back?

or do people just assume this is how it works everywhere and just accept it!?

because from where I'm standing it feels like we collectively decided corruption is just a personality trait of Ontario politics and moved on.

What is it???.

Alright so I'm sitting here paying $2,000+ a year just to legally exist on the road in this province.

Let's start with the basics. The average cost of car insurance in Ontario went from $1674 in 2022 to $1796 in 2023, then jumped to $2006 in 2024. That's not inflation, that's called getting mugged in slow motion every year And if you're in Brampton! (Goodluck) Drivers there are now paying an annual average of $3341. THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS. For a sh!t box.

Now who is running this whole operation?

Intact Financial Corporation, Desjardins, and Aviva consistently hold significant market share in Canada's auto insurance market. Three companies. A literal cartel operating in broad daylight
