Not surprising, but still disappointing.
Conservative candidate @EllisBRoss has decided not to attend the first debate in Skeena—Bulkley Valley.
He’s applying for the job of MP for a riding the size of Germany, yet doesn’t think he needs to show up for the job interview.
So many politicians (and their staff) believe Canadians are paying attention to the minute details of what happens in provincial legislatures and at the House of Commons.
Keeping your leader stuck at Queen’s Park when they could be touring Ontario is just a wasted opportunity.
Two Ontario Liberal MPPs are drawing a line in the sand, insisting that the next leader of the third-place party needs to have a seat in the provincial legislature in order to effectively hold the Ford government to account.

@joesmit1284 I’m a staffer who is sharing from personal experience that most Canadians don’t care about the work done at Queen’s Park. It’s just a fact. Marit was an MPP before becoming Leader. Her team does a great job of balancing her time at QP and on tour.
@EricDLombardi@MaritStiles Then it’s a good thing the @OntarioNDP has tabled multiple bills on anti-corruption measures including the Cleaning Up Corruption Act and included this work in every platform.
Tree coverage is a cost-effective way to keep hydro bills down in summer months. How does the tree equity policy have nothing to do with the cost of living?
This is an embarrassing take.

This week, City Hall highlighted a “tree equity” policy — but while people are worried about crime, congestion, and the cost of living, the focus should be on the basics that actually impact daily life.
Yesterday in Belleville, one thing was impossible to ignore: Doug Ford’s budget ignores what people actually need.
Belleville’s community members are worried about real affordability relief, homelessness, mental health and addictions, and education — and this disastrous budget delivers none of it.

Things you’ll never hear from Poilievre or Carney.
When they make cuts it’s front line service jobs, not the corporate class siphoning from our tax dollars.
The Ford government will table its budget on Thursday afternoon, a financial blueprint expected to be printed with its fair share of red ink as the finance minister tells Ontarians to prepare for “tougher times” ahead.

NEW: Premier Ford says he’s exploring new measures to live-stream bail hearings to ensure “clear reasoning is provide” that is easier for public to review.
Says this will hold judges accountable.
@Bilaru2 Tuition shouldn’t rise when the quality of education is the worst in the country and rapidly decreasing further.
Students shouldn’t pay more while professors are being laid off and postsec institutions have plans to reduce instructional hours to the bare ministry standard.
@connor__peters I had to take out a private loan to pay for living expenses that could have partially been covered by OSAP and my part-time job.
When tuition is more expensive than the quality of ed students are receiving, we have a problem in this province—and it didn’t just start 8 yrs ago.
Between 2011 (when I started high school) and 2016 (when I started uni), tuition under the Ontario Liberals rose by 22.2%.
It’s rich hearing the OLP now cry out to “fix OSAP” when their gov’t underfunded postsec institutions and near doubled tuition during their years in power.
@connor__peters Not intentionally cutting off at 2016.
My point is that when I entered high school and started thinking about uni to when I started uni, cost had jumped 22.2%.
I benefitted from the boost to OSAP, but my OSAP still only covered my tuition because it was now so expensive.
