I am covering the provincial election, but I find the fact that not a single member of FEDco would table a motion from their colleague @ShawnMenard1 is shocking. #OttNews
This is what leadership looks like!
Niagara's top doctor says that they do not agree with @fordnation's decision to drop mask mandates and will be looking into issuing a Section 22 Order to maintain them locally. It is possible.
@VeraEtches take notes.

Something particularly cruel and cynical about @fordnation doing his press conference around getting rid of mask mandates at a hospital with masked healthcare workers as his backdrop.
The enclosed article is a must read. Ottawa Police and the OPP met directly with the key organizers (former police officers in two cases) and effectively surrendered huge areas of the City before the convoy even arrived. Wow
We are witnessing, literally watching live, Putin commit genocide on an industrial scale in Ukraine while the most powerful military alliance in history stands aside. It's impossible not to be emotional, but let us also be rational and focus our rage on the facts. 1/13
Didn't think I'd need to share again but as you'll see in this op-ed written by myself and @AttarLeila last year, @VeraEtches has full power ON HER OWN to act on #COVID19 measures.
Deciding to fall in line with @fordnation isn't necessity, it's a choice.

@mayfairtheatre Thank you Mayfair! Tough decision indeed.For many Ottawa residents this will give them comfort to see a movie (which they likely otherwise wouldn’t after March 1).
Given the issues we are facing, the Board should be allowing delegations. They have cancelled the regular meeting and are not scheduled to meet again until the end of March. This is a decision of the new Chair.
In a callous, undemocratic move, @Eli_ElChantiry and the new @OttawaPolice Board have cancelled the Board meeting for Monday February 28th in replacement of one on the 24th with NO DELEGATIONS.
This is a breach of local democracy. More detailed comments to follow.
Great thread and compassion for Jake from Saskatoon and all those who have been misled and hoodwinked by grifters, con-artists and populists who exploit hardship of others for personal gain. Credit also to @judyatrinh who has also tried to truly listen to the protesters.
This feels a bit shameless. Thanks for driving by at the end after 24 days of #OttawaOccupation. My thanks to the mutual aid community, @cmckenney and @JLeiper who have been on the ground, #RamRanchResistance, Ottawa residents at the #battleofbillingsbridge, and first responders.
