My Ontario doesn’t include #InheritanceMillionaires. 100% voter turnout in next general election. We can’t survive another 43% turnout @icgardner.bsky.social

"CASH FAILURE" When a hospital runs out of the money it needs, including from bank loans, it declares "cash failure". MULTIPLE major Ontario hospitals have faced cash failure and needed a last-minute rescue. Doug Ford has put our hospitals on life-support. #onpoli #onhealth

January 29 is the National Day of Remembrance of the 2017 Québec City mosque attack. 6 men were murdered and 19 were injured in a brutal act of violence. We remember their lives and honour the victims, as our government stands with Muslim community against all forms of hatred.

School Board financial statements are a matter of public record. Calandra and Ford are full of shit. This is about centralization of power.

Thrilling! 🙄 Now enough with the Crown Royal shtick! It’s still a Canadian product. You couldn’t get worked up about 2,500 auto jobs at @GM Oshawa in 2018 so what’s special about 300 booze bottling jobs now? Your priorities are messed up

Doug Ford and Kinga Surma claimed the roof of @OntScienceCtr was at risk of collapse yet it's standing strong after the largest one-day snowfall in our history. Meanwhile, they're living large tonight at a $750/plate fundraiser. How do people so wrong have such nerve? #onpoli
