@dillonglides Thanks Peter!!!!

[Arlene Dickinson @ArleneDickinson]

Land meant to grow food and feed Canadians is more precious than gold. Building homes on the #GreenBelt is based on political favours not common sense. No country can be rich & feed itself if it gives its most valuable land for agrifood to developers.

The definition of greed.

[Starr.Waddington @etoilewadd]

@saminthehammer @CraigCassar I think you’ve missed the latest move by the Ford government requesting conservation authorities and the likes to give up acreage so that more housing can be built. This is the kind of housing we don’t need. Protected lands lost, cities pay the infrastructure, developers get rich

[Dr. Rebecca Rooney @girls_can]

You know what you get when the government strips away environmental protections and planning oversight to expedite a gold rush in sprawl development? https://t.co/ORsWKx6tka

Where was Poilievre’s vehement outrage when the targets were @cathmckenna or @cafreeland or Margaret Trudeau or Sophie Trudeau or @RachelNotley?

That’s how we know how unbelievably self centred, disingenuous & self serving Mr Poilievre truly is.

Premier Ford’s gov is pretending to champion green technology & electric vehicles solely to get re-elected. Don’t forget they:

- Spent $230M to cancel 750 green energy projects
- Spent 100s of millions to tear down wind turbines
- Ripped up countless public EV charging stations

Retweet if you support Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board's decision to continue masking and if you'd like to see other school boards show this type of leadership.

[Elise Davis (she/her) 🇨🇦 @Elise_ekd]

Does anyone else find it kind of ironic, maybe even egregious, that the #Ontario government announces their "state of the art" #science curriculum yesterday. And today they plan to cancel the mask mandate. Which is not based on #science. #onpoli #DoneWithDoug #COVIDisAirborne

[Dr. Jennifer Kwan @jkwan_md]

It’s great that things are open again!

But why drop simple effective measures (masks) that can help to keep people safe while resuming their normal activities?

BREAKING March 3: FAO confirms @fordnation held on to 5.5 Billion in Federal funds that could have paid nurses, made safe schools, negotiated $10.00 Childcare, more testing, given more paid sick days and on...

1 in 83,500 fully vaccinated Ontarians age twelve and up are currently in the ICU with COVID-19.

For the unvaccinated, it’s 1 in 9,500.

[Birgit Umaigba-Omoruyi @birgitomo]

If you're not angry at the fact that PCR tests are being sold for $180/test, in Ontario, during a pandemic, then you're so not paying attention. This is privatization of healthcare happening in real time folks. In Canada.

[Ameil J. Joseph Ph.D. (he/him) @ajesusjoseph]

So how did they privatize testing for COVID-19?

They told everyone they didn't have "capacity"

Told to everyone use rapid tests

Lied to them about providing rapid tests.

Made them purchase them on their own.

Poof.

[Steve Flindall @flindall_steve]

Today I was asked by a patient how are the vaccines working when his 79 yo mother in law was vaccinated but still got COVID. I asked if she was still alive. He said yes. I said, that’s how you know they are working.

[Tyler Watt 🇨🇦 @tylerwatt]

Yes we need more people to vaccinate. But asking healthcare professionals to do it for free is delusional and salt in the wound.

@fordnation how about using some of that $10 billion for Highway 413, that nobody wants, to pay us for our desperately needed services? #onpoli

[Dan Rosenberg @danrosenbergnet]

Who, among the 83% of Ontarians that are vaccinated say:
“I sure wish they’d lift vaccine mandates so I can eat out or exercise with unvaxxed people who are ~7x more likely to have Covid?”

Is there anyone besides Doug Ford who thinks like this?

[Cindy Blackstock @cblackst]

Imagine paying $16 to $45 dollars for one regular box of tampons and then being the very youth who do not get free menstrual supplies in their schools. Lived reality for First Nationa youth- @fordnation and @CanadianPM fix this unfairness via Jordan’s Principle.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Refusing to get vaccinated because vaccinated people can still catch COVID is like saying you won't wear a bike helmet because people who wear bike helmets can still be seriously injured in bicycle accidents.
