BREAKING: Premier Doug Ford says his government will completely reverse the Greenbelt land swap decision.
“It was a mistake to open the Greenbelt.”

Let me make one thing very clear: Transphobia, homophobia, and biphobia have no place in this country. We strongly condemn this hate and its manifestations, and we stand united in support of 2SLGBTQI+ Canadians across the country – you are valid and you are valued.
Federal Health Officials and Dr. Tam today:
- 5 year olds should get 2 doses of new Moderna COVID vaccine regardless of previous number of doses
- 6 month olds should get 1 dose of the new vaccine
- Wear masks during respiratory virus season even if you aren't sick
There is less than a week left to join the @OntLiberal party and have a say in the leadership race. Sign up here to join me in supporting Yasir: https://t.co/yjUpaUyrMQ
It's clear Ford is not serving Ontarians. We need to start working now to defeat him. I'm happy to be endorsing Yasir for Ontario Liberal Leader. He's a thoughtful & progressive leader with the experience needed to be an excellent Premier. And most importantly, he can beat Ford.
I don’t trust Doug Ford when he says he believes in climate change. With a climate crisis on the horizon, it’s time for a leader who will tackle it based on facts.
With help from environmentalists like @katiegibbs, I offer Ontario Liberals a real plan for our future!
Ottawa Police remain in Barrhaven, assessing damage and assisting residents.
Several partners are assisting, including @OttFire and @OttawaParamedic.
This incident has a large footprint and officers and partners are working diligently to assist everyone needing help.
There may be road closures due to fallen trees, electrical wires, etc.
A family reunification centre has been established at the Minto Recreation Complex, 3500 Cambrian Road in Barrhaven.
Please do not call 911 unless it is an emergency and you need Police, Fire, or Paramedics.

@maddyeisenberg I do it like a really high half back. More like a 1/10th back if that makes sense so it’s at like the very top of the crown of my head, right where the strap normally sits on me so it stays on well. Hard to explain, hope that makes sense!
@mirgray@VIA_Rail Yes I think we’re in the new one! And happy to report that the air quality is much better than my last train ride (although still not great)
