By now I'm sure you've all seen the first clip from Grange Park I posted today. We have like 2 hours of footage, just uploaded a 45 minute edit to YouTube, let me know what you guys think of my editing! Enjoy 45 minutes of pure unadulterated misogynistic banter!

CHANGE MY MIND: WOMEN SHOULD NOT VOTE. Couple tidbits from a new series I'm doing as part of my mayoral campaign. I'll upload a fuller longer version on my YouTube so go subscribe and check that out. But yeah women should not vote, I went to Grange Park and held it down like that because I'm a real niqqa.

NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE SQUEAKY WHEELS BRAD. Forget the 45 other candidates on the list. VOTE JOSH THOMPSON.

I don't have much money

It costs money to print. I'm not going to spend that much money. I don't have much money, so I had to just go get a sign.

I'm on welfare. So I welfare max. That is the truth of it. Stripe is at zero. Last look at the campaign account was $2.74. Cash is basically gone.

If you live in Ontario and you are an individual, not a company, you can give. Card or Interac. $26 is the cheapest line that actually gets the City rebate. Max is $2500. Interac is donate.josh@proton.me. Or go to https://joshthompsonformayor.ca/donate.

I am not going to change this by smelling the daisies. We are going to have to do some crazy and drastic shit. That costs something.

Vote Josh Thompson.

Today is a red letter day

Yeah, so here we are, today at Grange, Grange Park day, Sunday the 30th of August. The summer's coming to an end and we are beginning our campaign. Today is a special day. Today is a red letter day. We are going to beginning our Change My Mind series for the Josh Thompson campaign and we're going to be stirring up a little bit of drama, we're going to see what kind of conversations we can get into here at Grange Park.

They said this is literally my Achilles heel. I think it's my boon. I think it's my number one. That's why it's on the sign. It's like David versus Goliath bro. It's my slingshot. I'm telling you it's going to work. Vote Josh Thompson.

I feel like this is a coherent worldview

I think the Muslims low key are okay with being deported, they want to see white people win- as long as we let them win in their home, they'll let us win in ours and we will make space for each other. Apparently not all Muslims want to supplant white people in their home nations, I think that is beautiful, we should offer them the same courtesies.

Now in saying that I don't support Israel's Annexation of Gaza but I'm not going to blame the Jews, rather the leadership and military itself. I feel like this is a coherent worldview. Make Canada Great, Make Israel Great, Make Iran Great, Make America Great! The tribes of Noah needn't wage conflict against one another to appease God. Rather find common ground and brothership. Then we can celebrate what makes us different and celebrate what makes us the same.

They might call us traitors

They might call us traitors, but the real traitors are the criminals who robbed us of this country and would turn us against each other in the first place. We have always loved America, and in a sense Canada has always been an extension of America. The main distinguishing factor being that we did not FIGHT for our INDEPENDENCE, and thus live under a crown till this very day. American technology, media, money, hell for fucks sakes, has fueled every aspect of ALL of our lives since any of us can remember. So why turn to bite the hand that feeds now?

If Canada joins America, that doesn't stop Toronto from being hella based and Epic, it just makes it way better, so we can be more easily connected with our brother cities, like New York and Los Angeles, which tbh is a weird name for a city but it is beautiful. Imagine being able to travel to the City of Angels, or travel to any city over there without a visa. Imagine the new opportunities. You could get a better job. It might transform your life. The Thompson Campaign is a strictly 51st endorser and believes in the unification of a Greater North America.

The right man in the wrong place can make ALL of the DIFFERENCE in THE WORLD, so gather around my people, gather around and SMELL THE ASHES. I hate to disturb you innocent people, and no one in the world is more deserving of a rest than patriots such as yourselves, but your time has come again, to water the tree of LIBERTY. So wake up. WAKE UP MY PEOPLE. For the time for the battle has arrived. Spread the word of Josh Thompson's candidacy. Let the world know I INTEND TO DEFEAT MY POLITICAL OPPONENT OLIVIA CHOW.

Olivia Chow is a criminal mafioso running this city like a crime syndicate and the den of criminals is scared of US justice finally making its way past the border, the border that divides us like west and east Berlin. Canada doesn't belong as a country if it is not a part of the United States of America. We have garnered too many conflicting interests. The Chinese are now using us to form a land bridge to assault America. I am a true patriot of Freedom and liberty everywhere, and I will stand with America until death.

We're actually doing this

I was a comedian. People told me to run for mayor of Toronto. I thought they were joking. Then I sat with it. Then I filed. So this is the first of these notes, because if I am going to ask this city to take me seriously I should probably write it down.

I live here. I walk out the door and I can feel it. People look tired. The street does not feel like it belongs to the people paying for it. Everybody is a little braced, like they are waiting for the next thing to go wrong. I do not have a twenty-year speech about that. I have eyes. I have a mouth. I showed up.

A mayor has to walk into a room full of strangers and make them listen. I have been doing that for years. The room got bigger. The job is the same. I am going to say what I think. I am going to make jokes. I am going to piss people off. I am going to listen when I am wrong. And I am going to fight for this city because I live in it.

Polished candidates have had years. Look around. This is me, writing it on a Wednesday, because we are actually doing this.
