@TinaYazdani First of all, what we need is Affordable Housing and you neglected it for many years. Deliberately, because you leave it up to the municipality. Undrfunding we have unhoused people surving on the streets, now you talk about houses hypocritical
@lawn_ornamental@JohnFraserOS@fordnation Do you understand what freedom of information means? So I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to accomplish by this comment. But this is pretty serious Doug ford is silence in us. So we can't find out any information
FOI found a secret meeting between Galen Weston & Doug Ford on 14 August 2018 regarding freezing minimum wage at $14 an hour as Doug Ford said to Avi Lewis, "That's right. Let's give more money to the Westons. Godbless the Westons."
Premier Ford skipped question period today, one day after government documents revealed Ontario taxpayers covered nearly $200K in expenses tied to the purchase & resale of his $28.9M private jet.
The opposition is now demanding he repay the money. #onpoli
President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”
I had a one-sided interview today with Natural Resources Minister @mikeharrisjrpc about why his ministry was involved in the procurement of a private jet for Premier Ford. Documents revealed Wednesday that getting rid of the jet cost $190k #OnPoli#Ontario
At Queen’s Park: the Ford government’s private jet dominates question period.
Doug Ford said taxpayers wouldn’t be on the hook, but documents show nearly $200K in costs tied to the plane’s purchase & quick resale.
Opposition wants premier to pay the money back to taxpayers.
It appears Premier Doug Ford's office didn't include the costs of HST into the initial public disclosure -- meaning the jet actually cost north of $30 million CAD.
Ontario taxpayers were ultimately out nealy $200k in additional costs.

NEW: The Ford government tried to quietly close the public feedback period on its new education bill, changing the deadline to submit comments from May 13 to May 4 without notice. They reversed course after we asked why they were limiting public input:

Premier Doug Ford asked whether he’s prepared to offer MPP Stephanie Smyth a public apology.
“I had a conversation with Stephanie and we’re moving forward…”
Ford then takes another swipe:
“I don’t worry about all the other nonsense that goes on in the legislature, going back and forth calling each other names. So I'm going to focus on the economy. They can focus on being a third party.”
