This is also happening in Ottawa. And Hamilton. And in every Ontario city where @fordnation has legislated the closure of safe consumption sites.
Olivia Chow didn't do this. Or increase homelessness province-wide to 85,000 people — an 8% jump in just the past year alone.
Can we please start normalizing the idea that Ministers should actually be qualified for the portfolios they oversee?
What a radical thought.
Teachers need education degrees. Principals need years of experience. Yet the person running Ontario’s education system doesn’t need a background in education?
Paul Calandra’s background is in insurance, business, and politician, not education. So it’s a fair question: why is someone without professional experience in education making decisions that affect every student, parent, and teacher in this province?
The same standard should apply across government. If you’re in charge of education, have an education background. If you’re in charge of health care, have health care expertise.
Competence shouldn’t be optional. It should be the minimum requirement. #dougfordsucks
Finch West LRT maintenance was privatized by Metrolinx!
TTC only operates the LRT trains.
Mosaic Transit Group was contracted to maintain the Finch West LRT for 30 years.
This failure is a result of privatization of public transit maintenance!

If you have been tracking Doug Ford's vacation trips to the USA you will notice that all the states he is visiting are MAGA states. Keeping in mind that CUSMA is being stalled or blocked by MAGA. So tell my how Ford meeting with our adversaries is helping? IT IS NOT.
As soon as Ford was elected, they tried to pass a whole host of legislation to suppress the vote and rewrite campaign finance laws to legalize their favorite grifts.
But a court said they couldn't
So they used the notwithstanding clause to pass it instead.
Freedom of Information is a fundamental Cornerstone of democracy. Doug Ford has killed our FOI. Ask yourself, why would he do that? Why would he exterminate our public oversight? There is only one reason, he has something to hide from the public. Something huge.
