What the convoy's critics don't get is that if all restrictions were lifted right now, nothing would stop anyone from wearing a mask, getting triple vaxxed, and going to businesses who opt to require vaccine passports. The convoy is about choice. The status quo is about coercion.
Doug Ford is so desperate to distract from his own failures, he is calling on the Feds for more detention hotels.
All for show & politics. Doug has no shame. #FireFordOpenOntario#onpoli@fordnation

@fordnation Actions speak louder than words. We own 4 gyms, 1 of hardest hit industry from your lockdowns. Haven’t gotten ANY of your so called grants yet. Been months.
Applied for the ceba loan expansion as soon as we could & still haven’t received anything. What is the @fordnation gov’t waiting for ? All small bus to go under ? @Roman_Baber
(1/2) I'm thankful to a group of 13 Doctors who wrote a letter in my support to @fordnation yesterday. They wrote that Lockdown is having a horrific effect on the physical & mental health of Ontarians. They cite research that Lockdowns don't reduce ICUs or deaths. Cont. #onpoli
.@cityoftoronto out w/overdose data for 2020. Fatal opioid Paramedic calls are up 90% over 2019. All drug related deaths up 67% in Toronto over 2019. Depression, desperation, lack of healthcare & addiction services are killing people. The Lockdown is deadlier than Covid! #onpoli
Today it's the UK variant, next year another. Corona will mutate 1000s of times. Covid is generally dangerous in LTC & age 80+ w/comorbidity. Gov is failing to protect them. Imprisoning 15m Ontarians indefinitely is unsustainable. Sign my petition@ https://t.co/mdDhbzc9cT #onpoli
"But if rather than being a hypocrite, an MPP shows any sign of integrity by engaging in heresy&voices opposition to the party, going so far as to suggest that the party might be killing people,they have no business working w/Doug Ford."

Last week the Ministry of Health advised that this is the Hospital & ICU Occupancy Comparison for the last 4 years. Capacity is better this year than in prior years. Last Friday they called their own numbers "Misinformation". We deserve to know MOH, are these true or not? #onpoli
Can you hear the change in tone? Since my letter to Doug, Ontarians gained confidence to speak against the Lockdown. More Doctors & Educators are speaking out. We must seize this moment & unite. Pls sign my petition to #LiftTheLockdown at https://t.co/gXuEenH24L

I know the past few months have been hard and dispiriting. But watching the heightened activism of young people makes me hopeful. And if we can keep channeling our justifiable anger into peaceful, sustained, and effective action, this can be the moment when real change starts.
