The Ford gov’s 2026 Budget is a disaster: $244.2B in spending and a massive $13.8B deficit. From $4B in state-sponsored corporate welfare to a blatant land grab at Billy Bishop Airport , Ontario has a spending problem.

Real food security comes from abundance and freedom, not cartels. Look at the grain industry after 2012: it did not collapse, it thrived. It is time to liberate Ontario’s farmers and families. 🚜✨

Doug Ford chugging chocolate milk at the @DairyFarmersON AGM is pure political theatre. While he plays for the cameras, he is actively defending a state sanctioned monopoly that crushes competition and keeps grocery bills sky high. 🥛💸
The Premier also bragged about giving 27 million dollars of your tax money to a giant corporation. Libertarians say no. If a business case is strong, find private capital. Stop picking our pockets to pick your winners. 🛑💰

@Garnet_2203 The reality is that the high tax burden required to sustain this inefficient system is exactly why so many Canadians struggle to afford the basics. We are not saving money. We are being forced to pay for a service that is becoming increasingly unavailable.
@Garnet_2203 While the sticker price of American insurance looks high, the claim that Canadians are simply pocketing that money to spend on life’s necessities is fundamentally misleading.
@Garnet_2203 Finally, the economic reality contradicts the theory. If that money were truly staying in our pockets for groceries and rent, we would not be facing a historic affordability crisis with record food bank usage.
@Garnet_2203 Free healthcare means very little when you are waiting months for an MRI, sitting in an ER hallway for 12 hours, or constitute one of the millions of Ontarians without a family doctor.
@Garnet_2203 Second, coverage is not the same as access. In the US, that premium buys timely access to diagnostics and specialists. In Canada, we pay with our time instead of our wallets.
@Garnet_2203 We pay a massive tax premium to fund this government monopoly which erodes our disposable income just as much as a private insurance bill would.
@Garnet_2203 First, we do pay that premium; we just do not see the bill. The cost is stripped from our paycheques by the CRA before it ever hits our bank accounts.
Let the market deliver the housing supply Ontario needs at a price families can afford—without the need for government intervention to balance the ledger.

Regarding the provincial government’s announcement on the HST rebate for first-time buyers on new homes:
We welcome any measure that allows Ontarians to keep more of their hard-earned money.
But let’s be clear about what this really is. 👇 🧵
These government costs inflate the price of every home before a shovel even hits the ground.
We urge the government to focus on the supply side: aggressively repeal exclusionary zoning and eliminate punitive development charges.
By limiting relief to new builds and first-time buyers, the government is adding complexity to the tax code rather than solving the underlying issue.
We don’t need complex subsidy programs. We need a broad-based reduction of fees, levies, and restrictions.
However, targeted rebates for specific groups are a temporary fix for a structural problem.
When the government feels it is necessary to offer rebates to make housing affordable, it is an admission that the tax burden and regulatory costs embedded in the price are too high.
The removal of the provincial HST on new builds is a positive recognition of a fundamental truth:
The cost of government is a primary driver of the housing affordability crisis.
