Both our provincial and federal governments are misunderstanding how deeply passionate Torontonians (and many Ontarians) are about preserving the natural beauty of our waterfront cityscape.
And to do it for the benefit of an AMERICAN BANK? Outrageous.
Expect huge seat changes.

crisis for whom

[Mark Evans @markevans]

It's hard to take a government seriously that decides to take a 21-week vacation.

At some point, the people have to realize the PCs aren't serious about governing.

They're focused on deal-making with developers & investors.

When Doug says "people", he's not talking about us

[Wendy Goodes @WendyGoodes]

I stand with @TinaYazdani! Professional and honest journalism is hard to come by.
Tina did it all, and attempted to hold Ontario’s politicians to account.

Keep the pressure up!!!

Carney's support for Billy Bishop expansion is softening.

He's gone from calling it "an interesting idea" to promising "consultation".

But "consultation" when Ford is forging ahead is bogus.

We need Carney to stop the expansion.

Community consultations are absolutely critical, but the choice facing the Prime Minister is clear. Premier Ford is in the middle of a land grab, and the federal government has both the power and the responsibility to stop this irresponsible and anti-democratic move.

The fact that Doug Ford seized the land from the City of Toronto in order to ram through a project owned and operated by American banking giant JP Morgan tells you all you need to know about who will benefit from his plan.

Prime Minister Carney ran on a promise to protect Canadians from Donald Trump and stand up for Canadian sovereignty. He cannot sit on the fence while Doug Ford hands more power to Wall Street.

Like Ontario Place, the Science Centre, and so much more, Doug Ford is acting as though Toronto is a playground for him and his CEO friends. It isn't. Toronto belongs to the people, and the people don't need or want the jets, noise, traffic, and pollution that this massive expansion would bring.

We are saying no to a data centre in Île-des-Chênes because there are big threats to the environment and not much benefit to the economy.

Our message to any tech company out there… if you want to build technology with a thoughtful, human-centred approach that puts humanity first, then Manitoba is open for business. 🦬

Is @PierrePoilievre the most costly politician in Canadian history?

💯 .@MikeSchreiner: "Hwy 413 has nothing to do with alleviating gridlock in the GTA. It is all about unleashing low-density sprawl to build homes that ordinary people can't afford on 1,000s of acres of farmland, wetlands, Greebelt, forests & nature."

Ford is still really upset he couldn’t keep his $29 million luxury private jet.

Ontarians are upset they can’t afford groceries. #onpoli

NEW: the Ford govt has moved to cancel all summer meetings of the committee that vets PC appointments to provincial boards & agencies.

The move came after opposition MPPs questioned two nominees who had donated a combined $13K to the PCs.

Full story w/ @steve_cornwell to come.

This whole Billy Bishop expansion is being driven by an American bank that won't even disclose its role in the lobbying campaign. Doug Ford is destroying Toronto's waterfront to help out American bankers at our expense.

[Margaret E Atwood @MargaretAtwood]

Who's behind the massive lobbying campaign to expand the island airport? What I discovered should worry us all https://t.co/RsSippjdUX via @torontostar

Sobering reporting how the Ontario Conservative government put public hospitals into deficit, resulting in cuts while directing millions to for-profit private facilities. Thank you @TinaYazdani

[Gator⚡Gum @gator_gum]

There are only two politicians on this planet that will ask a reporter "which outlet are you with" instead of acknowledging the question.

This is just embarrassing.

[Laura Babcock 🇨🇦 @LauraBabcock]

Correction: Premier Doug Ford who wants to be AMERICAN is selling out our most valuable waterfront to an American bank. #FightFord

[Ontario Liberal Party | Parti Libéral de l'Ontario @OntLiberal]

Just how much did @fordnation's close personal pal win in a settlement with Metrolinx?

Was it more than the $500 million he sued them for?

OFFS it’s true! Ford is selling off Ontario’s prime waterfront to an American bank by expanding Billy Bishop Airport! His whole Captain Canada 🇨🇦 BS was just to get reelected! If he loves Trump and wants to be an American so bad he should quit and move back there! #FightFord 🤬
