I’m thrilled to share a community update on some exciting projects in Etobicoke Centre!
Thank you for giving me a mandate to serve you once again and bring real investments to Etobicoke Centre that will strengthen the community and make life more convenient.
Get ready for a brand new Ontario Place.
We’re building Ontario Place into a vibrant, year-round waterfront destination, with more than 50 acres of free public parks, a new Ontario Science Centre and world-class, family friendly attractions.
The new Finch West LRT is officially open!
It's part of Ontario's nearly $70 billion investment in the largest transit expansion in North America - including the biggest subway expansion in Canadian history.
Let's get riding! 🚈🚆
.@Yvan_Baker calls himself a "straight shooter" but he's not being straight with his constituents. During his time in politics, his government closed 7 jails! We are fixing that, adding 10 jails and 1,000 new beds across Ontario.
The Supreme Court just struck down the one-year mandatory minimum for child porn possession.
Let that sink in. Instead of protecting our children, they're making it easier for predators to walk free.
This isn’t justice, it’s a disgrace.
We’re building a stronger, more resilient economy for Ontario and Canada. Our East-West Energy Corridor will:
✅ Unite our country
✅ Unlock new domestic and export markets
✅ Reduce U.S. dependence
✅ Create good-paying jobs

Great news for SDSG!
Our government is investing over $10.2M to build critical infrastructure and keep our community moving with updated roads, bridges, and water systems. Thank you to Minister @KingaSurmaMPP for her leadership on this important initiative. Learn more: https://t.co/8IrFAbJ7RQ
MPP Kinga Surma is misleading you about my work to fight crime and is trying to deflect and evade responsibility for provincial government inaction.
This level of misinformation and defamation from an elected official in Etobicoke Centre is unprecedented and can not go unchallenged.
Stopping crime has been one of my top priorities. I have been working with federal, provincial and municipal government leaders to do just that. At the federal level I have been pushing for longer sentences, stricter bail laws, and additional funding for police. I have also met with many of you on this matter in person, on the phone, or in a town hall setting. I have even spoken with Premier Ford about this.

"At the federal level I have been pushing for longer sentences, stricter bail laws..."
Your party *is* the governing party. Either you haven't been pushing for "longer sentences, stricter bail laws" or you aren't very good at it. Either way, it's a failure.
"No matter what the federal government does to strengthen bail laws and the criminal code, if the province does not...."
The mental gymnastic required to make that statement should win you a gold.
The feds need to strengthen bail laws and the criminal code. Not doing your job because others might not do theirs is a pathetic excuse.
#BailReform
Our government led by Premier @fordnation, supported every step of the way by @kingasurmaMPP, will never apologize for being tough on crime. Our actions speak when others are silent.
✅ $116 million Bail Grant & Bail Dashboard
✅ $51 million Auto Theft Grant
✅ 2,080 new police officers across the province this year
✅ 1,000 new beds coming online in our jails in the coming year
@Yvan_baker, the Liberal MP from Etobicoke Centre, gets the facts wrong. For 6 years in Ottawa, he is missing in action when it comes to the safety of our province. The revolving door of violent criminals out on bail, and illegal crime guns coming across the border, are a direct result of failed policies he supported.
Ontarians know that when it comes to fighting crime, having the backs of everyone that dons a uniform, and fighting hard for #bailreform, it is our government that meets the moment. That’s the difference.

As PA to Finance you left the provincial justice system in shambles. We have had to do more than our share to get the system on track. We have added extra Associate Judges and 100s of millions to make up for your shortfall. Time to reverse your destructive policies. #BailReform
Through the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program, the @ONgov is strengthening communities across Ontario.
Proud to join the grand opening of the Cudmore Creek Wetland & Trailhead, supported by $1.2M in provincial funding to enhance public spaces & sustainability.
Proud to take part in the Minister’s Panel at this year's #OHBA Conference with my colleagues. We had an important discussion on cutting red tape and working with municipal partners and homebuilders to keep the dream of homeownership within reach for families across Ontario.
Saddened by the passing of the Hon. Jim Bradley, a true gentleman, statesman, and Niagara legend.
Having had the opportunity to work closely with him on many issues over the years, I will never forget his thoughtful insight, his great sense of humour (“thank you for that mercifully brief introduction” will always be a classic!) and his understated, effective advocacy.
Just a few weeks ago, he joined me to announce a historic water infrastructure investment in Niagara, and his unwavering love for this region and its people shone strong. With twinkling eyes he told me that “this is more than a good start” (he often would jokingly say funding from other levels of government was “a good start!”).
He has touched more projects and the lives of more people in Niagara than likely any politician in the history of our region, and province. And I know so many will be forever grateful for the life, legacy, and friendship of Jim Bradley. A good man, and a fierce advocate for Niagara.
🚍 Ontario’s ONE FARE program is delivering results!
✅ Riders saved $123 million in double fares
✅ Over 38 million transfer trips
✅ Transfer trips grew by 14.5 million
With a 92% satisfaction rate among commuters, our One Fare program is saving you money while getting you where you need to go, faster.
A beautiful day at the 2025 International Plowing Match where I announced our government's $400 million investment in small, rural + northern communities. We’re making record investments in building roads, bridges & water systems to make communities stronger.
Yesterday, I was proud to join @AnthonyLeardiPC to deliver the largest grant in LaSalle's history. This investment in the Howard-Bouffard water system will unlock the potential for 10,000 new homes of all types, supporting growth and opportunity in the community.
