    That headline…

    The Beaverton is consistently cutting through the bullshit to give us satirical news that’s more accurate than “real” news.

    Edit: Solid gold!

    Ma was asked if he felt that his actions might spark other Conservative MPs to cross the floor. “I know others want to, but they’re either afraid, or not quite committed. I think if the Prime Minister ends federal pharmacare or dental care like he promised he wouldn’t, it would really open the doors.”

      I mean, satire is about highlighting truth through absurdity or irony. It’s really not satirical if it isn’t telling truth.
