So let me get this straight…
Doug Ford can take a 102-day summer break with full pay, taxpayer-funded pensions, benefits, travel budgets, and perks while classrooms are overcrowded, hospitals are understaffed, ERs are closing, and families are struggling to survive?
Teachers are being told there’s “not enough money” for smaller class sizes, educational assistants, special education supports, or properly funded public schools.
Healthcare workers are burning out. Parents can’t find family doctors. Students are falling through the cracks. But Queen’s Park gets a 3+ month vacation?
How is this acceptable?
And before anyone says politicians still “work behind the scenes,” most Ontarians don’t get 102 days off with six-figure salaries and guaranteed pensions while the systems WE pay for collapse around us.
Public education and healthcare are not luxuries. They are the backbone of a functioning society.
Maybe if politicians had to live in overcrowded classrooms, wait 14 hours in ERs, or watch children lose supports because there aren’t enough EAs, they’d stop treating public services like a budget line to cut while protecting their own comfort.
Ontario deserves better than a government that always seems to find money for itself while telling everyone else to lower their expectations.
The problem with social media is everyone will throw a tantrum over two bad calls but ignore the Spurs giving up 100 points in three quarters to a team missing two key players.
@zxsmithh Tbh it makes kendricks point stronger. AK got his own weird cases and is a misogynist. If you were trying to distance from the minor and sex trafficker rumours this wasnt it still.
