NDP leader @AndreaHorwath: In Peel, where 369 lay-off notices have gone out to teachers the superintendent of human resources says this is not normal. This is not routine. This is real and it is bad. Does Ford think he’s not telling the truth? #onted#onpoli
Horwath: Students & their parents just don’t believe Ford.
They see the plan for larger classes & fewer courses. They hear his overheated rhetoric and they don’t see a plan for education.
They see a recipe for cuts in the classroom and chaos in schools. #onted#onpoli
Horwath: Parents and students don’t need 100s of supply teachers waiting at home for work opportunities; they need educators in our schools, helping students succeed. This week, over 2,000 educators have received a letter saying there’s no job for them in September. #onpoli
NDP MPP @john_vanthof: When it comes to promoting themselves Ford believes in big govt:
— millions of taxpayer dollars on partisan ads.
— Threatening businesses w huge fines
Will Ford tell us how much of the public’s money he plans to spend on his partisan ad campaign? #onpoli
The latest from @padams29: "Here in Canada, you do not even have to go to the issue of racist intent to see that Quebec’s Bill 21... would be racist in its effect, hitting mainly people of colour and Jews." https://t.co/EKt786Vjzg #cdnpoli#polqc
Andrew: As a city councilor, Doug Ford voted to slash the Toronto Library budget by nearly 4 million dollars. And he infamously said that he would close libraries in his own community: “absolutely, in a heartbeat”. #onpoli#topoli
The PM will leak absolute anything confidential — even details of a Supreme Court vetting process — but oddly not the section 13 memo from the director of public prosecutions in which she sets out her legal reasons for finding a DPA for SNC is not in the public interest. 🤔
There’s a curious line of Very Independent Criticism™️ about SNC-Trudeau scandal coverage that argues media should shift to “more important news,” which somehow never includes Singh’s recent announcements on pharmacare, tax fairness, housing, green deal. 🤔
Prosecutor cited 'gravity' of alleged SNC-Lavalin offences when deciding not to negotiate special deal, court documents show https://t.co/kr4S4lG9V0 https://t.co/kr4S4lG9V0
The independent prosecution found SNC didn’t legally qualify for a deferred prosecution deal. Anyone who knows SNC’s history of corruption and reads the legal factors the prosecution must consider would surely agree 👇
