#mediapetition

THREAD

To each of you who signed the petition, all 4,147 of you, I want to extend my thanks and my gratitude. /
We have received an answer from the government. It's not at all close to what we requested in our petition. /
The government has responded by giving us information on all the assistance they have offered to Canadian digital media, $500 million in emergency support funding for heritage, cultural and sport organizations. /
$63.7 million has been earmarked for the Canada Periodical Fund to provide emergency relief support to Canadian magazines and community newspapers. /
Introduction of a refundable labour tax credit on journalist salaries; and, establishing a temporary tax credit for subscriptions to Canadian digital media. /
Unfortunately, not once was the entire point of the petition, Postmedia, mentioned. /
I'm so very sorry, and I apologize to you all for getting your hopes up. It was my hope that the government, at least in part, would discuss the actual point of the petition. /
Thank you all again for your encouragement and for your support. You are wonderful, committed people, and you made the journey so much easier for me.

Go raibh mile, mile maith agaibh.

(May thousands of good things come to you all).

A very dear friend of mine reminded me of what my grandfather did for me.
I was born premature.
The doctor told my mom to take me home. I was going to die and there was nothing he could do for me. /2
My mom and godmother took me around the corner from the hospital and had me baptized. Because we didn’t own a car, they took me home on the bus. /3
On the way home, I caught whooping cough.
A death sentence on top of my death sentence. /4

What is it with @jkenney?
Is it about sex, or about the money?

When Kenney was a young man in a Jesuit University in SF, lobbied to have dying AIDS patients separated from their partners. It worked. So many young men died without their life partners beside them because of Kenney. /2

The Jesuit University kicked him out because he was too extreme for them.
Imagine that.
Too extreme for Catholic Priests./3
3/ But he came back to Canada, and when he spoke about it (on video) he actually smirked.
Smirked.
When he was running for election, I tried to remind everyone that a person who would take those measures /4
