Doug Ford froze minimum wage for years.
He froze wages for female-dominated professions for years.
He’s failed to boost ODSP for years.
He’s made cuts to education.
He’s grossly underfunded public healthcare.
Today, he gives MPPs a 35% raise & turns his back on the rest of us.
Let's take a look at the needs inside of a typical inner city #OntEd elementary school classroom with a 6.5 billion dollar per pupil funding gap in Ontario for the upcoming school year.
Let's do the math.
This Ontario election is on healthcare. There was 1 unplanned ER closure from 2006-2022. There were 203 closures among 23 hospitals from 8/2022 to 7/2023. Has Premier Ford improved the function of your local ER. @MaritStiles@fordnation@BonnieCrombie@MikeSchreiner
Ontario, #NeverVotePC. Do you have $4,995? That's how much it cost to join a private HC clinic in Toronto. “This isn’t about just one doctor and thousands of patients abandoned. It’s about the erosion of our healthcare system,” courtesy Ford government.
Ah, yes. Canada is not for sale, but you know what is apparently?
The Greenbelt, Ontario Place, the Science Centre, Service Ontario, and Minister’s Zoning Orders.
You say Canada is not for sale, but sell off Ontario everyday.
We see you, @fordnation.

The @OntarioAuditor report on the TDSB didn't get the attention it deserved because of the damning reports on Ontario Place & MZOs, but the audit reveals concerning details on the govt’s record on education. This week, let's dig into what the report says. A 🧵1/11

Ontario’s Financial Accountability Office released their latest report today.
It shows Conservatives are spending $123 million less on education and $229 million less on postsecondary.
Starving our education system won’t help us reduce this 7.6% unemployment rate.

Fellow Ontario tax payers - please like and retweet if you would rather $3.2 Billion be invested in public services, like education, healthcare, ODSP, support for autism families, than be dolled out in one-time $200 pre-election bribes by Doug Ford. #onpoli#onted#cdpoli

The government's own modelling shows building Highway 413 won't solve the GTA's gridlock problem, according to documents obtained through a freedom of information request by @Thetrilliumca.
Solid reporting here by @jessiecatherine.

The majority of Ontario #hospitals are running deficits. ERs close for lack of staff. This report details the how provincial government spent $1.3 billion less on healthcare than budgeted. https://t.co/1RasyzwSwD
It makes me furious that @fordnation can publish an interactive map to find beer after just one weekend but he won’t do the same thing to help any of the 2.3 million Ontarians who can’t find a family doctor.
