SUMMARY: Political folks saying what they have to say

Very frequently political leaders have to get up and say things that seem elementary to most people. Premier Wynne for example had to tell “student leaders” today that the hopelessly hyped “free tuition” isn’t free and never will be. Tuition for higher education is so expensive sadly that no province or country can afford to give it away. The member for Don Valley West said she had been “worried” about her government pitching a new student grant program providing “free” tuition because, well, it isn’t. Tuition  will  continue to cost most prospective student, barring grants, at least $3,000. Thank you Madam Premier.

RALPH GOODALE

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale wanted everyone to know that it’s important that Canada “needs to be among the best in the world at stopping radicalization.” This after the unsettling behaviour of the man with a knife on a mission from the Almighty or whomever at a recruitment centre in North York. Yes, Mr Goodale, we sort of get that reasoning. Thank you sir for reminding us how it would help if we could keep young men and women from “going rad”. Got any ideas?
