I simply cannot stand this man.
Isn’t this the lad that is near singlehandedly holding up the ban on conversion therapy?
What makes me angry is that we as a wealthy developed country, building one of the most expensive buildings in the world, the most expensive hospital in the world, and the most expensive building in Europe (outside nuclear power stations) we need to rely on a charity to provide decent supportive accommodation for families of sick children.
The current Ronald McDonald house on the grounds of Crumlin children’s hospital is a fantastic facility for families with sick children. It provides somewhere comfortable and convent to stay during what can be one of the most traumatic life experiences for many people.
The communal spaces really help families living through incredibly difficult times to bond and support one another. I know this sounds like an advertisement but I’m speaking from first hand experience. It’s been a while but I can’t say I remember any obvious branding or marketing….except for the name obviously.
doubt the parents or kids care less given it allows them to be near their loved ones, its not as if it sells burgers and chips ffs
2 Billion & growing. That’s what makes me angry.
But people voted them cnuts back in so screw it I guess. These are the standards we’ve set for ourselves.
Really? That’s what you’re angry about?
Not the fact that we’ve spent more on it now than it cost to build the Burj Khalifa?
Does he know it’s not an actual McDonalds?
He can’t get a Big Mac and nuggets there.
Ronald McDonald houses are near children’s hospitals so parents have some places nearby to stay while their poor kids are going through hell.
I mean where else should it be? Where else would you have it?
Totally agree. We are a wealthy country and shouldn’t be relying on McDonald’s anymore. It should be a Burger King castle.
He’s dead right. It’s an embarrassment. Like an epic USA shill type of embarrassment. Theres zero place for this crass and highly inappropriate advertising on a publicly funded campus. Why in the name of god was this not included in the originally funded plan? Penny wise and billion foolish. This country’s governance regularly drives me absolutely spare. And yes I did vote on Friday. 🫠
Lets be honest, when was the last time McDonalds actually even used Ronald McDonald in advertising for McDonalds?
Would kids nowadays even know who he is or associate him with McDonalds nowadays?
