‘Thank God we don’t have the media’: Ford holds another funding announcement without inviting reporters thetrillium.ca:443/news/poli…

WATCH - Premier Ford attends another news conference style event without reporters who were not invited.
“Thank God, we don’t have the media. No questions, no answers” Said Ford.
The government has previously said it communicates to the public in different ways.

Something to remember the next time he boasts about running "the most transparent government" in Ontario's history.
NEW: Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who just held a news conference style event in Mississauga, without any members of the media says:
“Thank God, we don’t have the media. No questions, no answers. We are good to go.”

A taxpayer-funded event. Politicians from every level of government. An announcement about taxpayer dollars flowing to a municipality, in the middle of a mayoral race in which the premier has publicly made his preference clear.
Styled like a news conference, without the media.
Premier Doug Ford is in Mississauga this morning to announce $401.4 million in federal and provincial funding from the development charge reduction program.
There was no media advisory for this announcement, and media weren’t invited to attend.

Just a timely reminder that freedom of the press is a fundamental, constitutionally protected, feature of our democracy.
The comments expressed by the Premier above are, unfortunately, shared by those at the highest levels in the Premier’s Office — a feeling of distain that is felt almost daily.

French Canadians were around loooong before Alberta was even a province.
English and French are our official languages.
> The French stays on the package.
Actually not surprised.
BREAKING: The Ontario PC Party sent someone to Jamaica to “spy on” Bonnie Crombie just six days after she became Liberal leader in 2023, sources say, paying for their stay at the same resort where Crombie was vacationing.

Amanda @ASimardL and I joined Prime Minister @MarkJCarney in support of Tanveer Shahnawaz @beytanveer, our candidate in the upcoming byelection in Beaches-East York.
Tanveer will be a great Member of Parliament and a strong voice representing his community.
By-elections have been announced! To be held on August 31, 2026:
- Beaches—East York
- Chicoutimi—Le Fjord
- North Vancouver—Capilano
Good job, Tanveer! You worked hard for this. Now on to the by-election! @beytanveer #cdnpoli
Congratulations, @BraedenCaley!
At this decisive moment, @BraedenCaley is ready to work with Mark Carney and our Liberal team to deliver for North Vancouver—Capilano.
He has spent his career getting big things done for British Columbians and Canadians, and we’re thrilled to welcome him as our candidate in the upcoming by-election.

Funny how Ford told the Auditor General to “stay in her lane” when she identified these issues

How did Ontario taxpayers lose over $500 million on a transit project that failed?
The latest news about Metrolinx raises serious questions about transparency and oversight. Time and again, the Ford government spends public money without accountability and expects Ontarians to foot the bill without asking questions.

New: Ontario is refusing to release four internal forensic audits, including one into an SDF recipient, arguing that doing so could interfere with law enforcement matters.
There are at least two related police investigations and a court case.
