As frustrated I have been with @fordnation wrt #healthcare it is nothing compared to my complete dismay at his reckless abandonment of Ontario’s future in destroying the #Greenbelt.
This cannot be fixed and will led to devastating consequences for #Ontario #onpoli

@MMcAllister58 @Lindsaclarke Congratulations Lindsay! So great to hear this news.👏🎉

[Dr. Brian Goldman @NightShiftMD]

I'm detecting a lot of anger, confusion and uncertainty about the increasingly worrisome details about #OmicronVarient. Let's remember we also have masks, rapid tests, vaccines, powerful antiviral medications and lots of kind & hard working people. We'll get through this.

[Lindsay Clarke @Lindsaclarke]
