Doug Ford closed Queen’s Park for 5 months, THEN promised committees would keep working.
So why did I drive in from Niagara Falls to do the work, only for his PCs to fight like hell to cancel summer meetings?
Is there a promise Ford won’t break? #onpoli
🚨 HEARTBREAKING: Scott Pelley Sounded Like A Man Attending A Funeral.
Not for a person.
For a profession.
🔥 That’s why his defense of journalism hit so hard.
Scott Pelley confirmed on the record that CBS management ordered him to “inject falsehoods” into 60 Minutes coverage.
He named Bari Weiss directly. He said she was brought in to neutralize independent journalism inside the network.
He told 60 Minutes’ new leadership she was “murdering the show.”
Pelley spent 24 years at CBS News.
He just put his name on the record against the institution that built his career.
The Paramount-Skydance merger closed.
The new ownership installed Weiss. Pelley is the most senior on-air voice at CBS News describing what’s happening inside.
This is what institutional capture sounds like from inside the institution.
If I’m understanding this properly the $750 for #OntEd elementary teachers is…a bit of a scam.
$450 is funding from the government. $300 is being taken directly from school budgets.
Per teacher.
And the vendor is TBD.
Doug Ford is trying to stack Ontario municipal elections. When you vote in your municipality, call your candidate out as to which provincial and federal party they align with. Municipal elections have now become a political party afflicted elections!!

7. Suicidal Thoughts/Behaviours
8. Financial Challenges
Just so we're clear, this is all garbage. Special education is deeply underfunded in Ontario, and this govt has just cut an additional $4.7 million from PDSB's spec ed budget.
They're cutting access because they don't want the public to see how bad it is. Parents know. #onted
Four things all great coaches have:
1. High character.
2. Great leadership skills.
3. A vast knowledge of their sport.
4. The ability to teach their sport effectively.
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.

Doug Ford mocked students for taking “basket-weaving courses” and blowing OSAP money on “luxury watches and colognes.”
A new report shows less than 1% of OSAP funds were misused.
Less. Than. 1%.
He invented a crisis to cut student aid – then pulled $30 million from people’s pockets to buy himself a luxury private jet.
I’ll keep fighting this government until the cuts to OSAP are reversed.
Willie O'Ree Community Hero Award finalist Vinnie Matteo, the founder of Avalanche Kidz, a Montreal-based program designed to introduce people with autism and other special needs to hockey, is ready to do whatever it takes to make hockey more accessible, writes @Dixononsports.

Disabled people shouldn’t have to beg for healthcare, housing and food.
They shouldn’t have to “prove they matter” to access social supports.
They shouldn’t have to explain their disability to every single person who asks.
Disability is a minority group you can join any time.
Mike Harris' "Common Sense Revolution" destroyed Ontario.
I believe that Doug Ford's regime is causing even more damage.
It's a party more concerned with power and rewarding its friends than governing.
We're in trouble.
The amazing Ottawa Hospital is losing 400 staff due to underfunding by Ontario. Just to be clear, with today’s healthcare pressures, the Ottawa Hospital should be announcing adding 400 staff. This is so seriously wrong in every way possible.

@sarobertsonca Of all the things that could’ve ended Doug Ford - green belt, ON place/science centre, Metrolinx, LCBO, beer, dead seniors in Covid, crashing education and health care etc etc etc - this gravy plane could be it
Ontarians should be livid
Increased pressure on Ford govt to address rising cost of living & ever-expanding #homelessness, neither of which were addressed in the recent budget.
“A little over a year ago, we all got $200 to help with groceries”. Right before a snap election.
