Nice to chat with you tonight @J_Scott_ and so great to meet @CharliePinkerto at the #OLPdebate #ONpoli
From the #OLPldr debate:
The candidates were asked about their preferred voting system, and there were a variety of answers (notably, none of them said FPTP)
Nate Erskine-Smith also mentioned bringing back ranked ballots for municipal elections
#onpoli #OLPdebate
complaints about ganging up on the only woman ( sheβs perceived front runner & the only woman)
complaints about Liberals taking shots at liberals ( arenβt all the candidates liberals?)
Should they just join hands and sing kumbaya? Tell me why I should vote 4 you! 2/ #OLPdebate
Iβm not sure I understand the point of a debate. I thought they were designed to debate policy, discuss issues important to the electorate and to distinguish between candidates. If thatβs not the point then why bother? #OLPdebate #ONpoli 1/
And that's it for the first #OLPDebate! Lots of great questions and answers for the #OLPldr candidates.
At the end of the livestream ppl are chatting, candidates are shaking hands, and you can see @beynate and @ShamjiAdil hug before it ends. Civility is always nice in #onpoli
Ted:
Says he's "not a part of the old Liberal establishment"
Notes his win federally in 2011, and provincially in 2022, as ways he's gained support from Liberals, NDP, and elsewhere.
Says his uncommon background is a "fresh start" for the party

Bonnie:
Thanks other candidates, as well as guests. Says everyone should have a place in the party.
Notes that the PCs had sent out fundraising letters attacking her, points to this as proof that she's ready to lead.

from Adil's closing statement:
"I'm not your average politician. I've gone from the most trusted profession [a doctor] to the least trusted. For me it's the opportunity to serve, help, and fight to make a better province"
#OLPldr #OLPdebate #onpoli
Yasir mentions a story from his past of when his neighbour came to visit and connect one-on-one, as well as inviting him to join the Ontario Liberals.
Says that local connections, and a party that "looks like your neighbours" is the key to rebuilding.

πποΈ Impressive discussions tonight at the inaugural OLP debate! Housing, healthcare, education, greenbelt, economy, and rebuilding took center stage. π‘πππΏπΌ One thing was crystal clear: every candidate showcased their passion and clear thinking. Kudos to all! π #OLPDebate
I've heard from members of Bonnie's team saying that housing policy is "coming soon" but it's not currently available.
#OLPldr #onpoli #OLPdebate
Watch this video, and then try to find Bonnieβs housing policy on her website (hint- it doesnβt exist).
Adil: "people normally think doctors and nurses when we talk about healthcare, and also lately include PSWs. But we need to include, EMTs, respiratory therapists ... and over 280 other professions in medicine"
#OLPldr #OLPdebate #onpoli
@tedhsu @ShamjiAdil Ok. Way too much talk about what Doug Ford is doing ( or not doing). At this point your not running against him, you are running against each other. Tell me why I should pick you as my #1 #OLPdebate #ONpoli
Nate says a house "should be a home first and an investment second"
Adil adds that we should go farther, and support housing as a human right (this gets applause in the room)
#OLPldr #OLPdebate #onpoli
Adil: "one of my biggest concerns was that in the last provincial election, 57% of people didn't vote".
Says "conservatives staying home on election day may be good for our party electorally, but it's not good for democracy"
#OLPldr #OLPdebate #onpoli
Ted also makes a comment indirectly about Bonnie:
"There has been reporting about a candidate getting money from developers. We need developers, but write your housing policy down first and go ask for money later, not the other way around"
#OLPldr #OLPdebate #onpoli
Bonnie responds: "I'm not sure who Nate is talking about".
Says there are 39 cranes in the sky and 80,000* permits available in the city of Mississauga.
*(Though she's said before that "20,000 of them are over a decade old")

@tedhsu @ShamjiAdil Ok, I think we have established the fact that we donβt trust Doug Fordβ¦.#OLPdebate
