Hard hats and Hi-Vis vests look good in photo ops, but keeping workers working takes much more.
Read my op-ed in The Trillium on how Ford will eventually have to own up to his poor record on jobs to have any hope of actually helping workers.

Hey @PierrePoilievre
We didn’t vote for @MarkJCarney for an overnight deal with US.
Which no one can promise anyway.
We voted for him for his decency, common sense and because we trust him to stand up for Canada.
So go sit down.
This is so true. If you have a great get you trust, it’s hard enough (from what I understand, insurance is the biggest cost). If you have an emergency, it’s tens of thousands and you have to decide what you can afford. Now, imagine that is your child…
"7-10 min" of travel time savings. If the tunnel costs $100 billion (in taxpayer money!), that’s a cost of $10B to $13B per minute saved.
How can the Premier and his Conservative government think that makes sense?

If you eat at McDonald's, you should believe in vaccines
If you fly on a plane, you should believe in vaccines
If drive a car, you should believe in vaccines
If you use a fridge, you should believe in vaccines
If you go to ER, you should believe in vaccines
It's all science.
@raghu_venugopal@peck_gaye At one time vets owned their own practices & prices were moderate. However larger companies saw a new way of making money and started buying & consolidating vet practices and forcing massive escalating prices and margins. Much like what happens with human healthcare privatization
Want to get a taste of more privatized healthcare in Canada?
Get a dog
The cost of taking Joey and Clover to see our wonderful vet for a regular check up - not an emergency - costs me what I will earn seeing 20 human emergencies
Saying no to family is not easy
I don't know what's worse: the fact that we're ruled by a folksy single brain cell and its irrational, anti-evidence fantasies, or the fact that the brain cell will make every single Ontarian pay for yet another doomed project in Toronto if it moves forward.
No matter how you feel about bike lanes, is the issue worth stripping you of your Charter Rights?
Ford is threatening to use the notwithstanding clause to strip our fundamental freedoms and legal rights under the Charter if the courts don't decide in his favor.

Ontario has the lowest costs for hip replacements. Why would the Ford government move to much more expensive for-profit hip surgeries? To allow the wealthiest Ontarians to bypass wait lists. Costs will balloon & wait lists will grow but the most affluent will buy speedy access.
The Eglinton Crosstown has taken so long to build that the vehicles bought for it are now 10 years old and need maintenance work to run.
4 years late and $4 billion over budget.
With this record of success, the Ford government is now ready to dig up the 401!
The point is not to reduce congestion, or end gridlock, or help people get home to their families faster.
The point is to enrich the pockets of pals and donors, and distract us from the systematic destruction of our public education, public healthcare, and public green spaces.
Canadians largely oppose making concessions to Donald Trump — except Conservatives

And for all those who believe that the massive rise in forest fires is due to arsonists , get help . Yes there are arsonists but the massive rise in forest fires is NOT because we have had a massive rise in arson. It is because the planet is getting hotter , drier and has become a tinder box.
When Mulroney abolished FIRA, 36 of 🇨🇦 sectors were taken over by foreign entities. Canadian banks financed these takeovers. Mel Hurtig- The Truth about Canada. @TheAgenda @ConsumerSOS @shanedingman @thenarwhalca @OntarioPolitico
The Prime Minister is doing an *outstanding* job holding the line and maintaining Canada's honour.
If we must stand alone as the only country that refuses to relent to a criminal shakedown of our money for a fraud artist so be it.
