"For instance, here's Dave. Dave's got a wealth of life experience. He just finished high school, played high school football three years in a row, and worked part-time at Tims. Dave is rarin' to get a gun and a fast car and arrest bad guys."

Once farmland is paved over, it’s gone forever. Help protect local, fresh, home grown food in Ontario before it’s too late.

This is a photo from when Ontario stood up to Doug Ford about bill 28. He originally dug in his heels, but Ontario pushed back so loudly that Ford had to rescind that bill.
We must do the same with Ford’s plans to privatize our public healthcare system!
Be LOUD Ontario!

The Ford gov't has just passed #Bill23, despite massive protests. It's not just the sprawl, it's not just the pollution, it's the #corruption. And the outright lying and promise-breaking. Voters will not be able to trust anything these folks say. It ain't over.
Replying to @SCGreenbelt
@SCGreenbelt response to the passing of Bill 23. We’re here for long term change and hope you’ll join us in creating the future we want. simcoecountygreenbelt.ca/med…

Is this government listening? Thousands of Ontarians have spoken and called for major amendments to be made to #Bill23. Paving over our #greenbelt threatens our water, air quality, and will raise the cost food — making it harder for Ontarians to put food on the table. #onpoli

Y'all realize what @Sflecce and @fordnation are doing right? They don't want to do the bare minimum to keep kids out of hospitals, so they're making an education crisis to keep illness from spreading in schools and making CUPE the scapegoat. This is obvious, yes?

Land meant to grow food and feed Canadians is more precious than gold. Building homes on the #GreenBelt is based on political favours not common sense. No country can be rich & feed itself if it gives its most valuable land for agrifood to developers.
The definition of greed.

When adult ICUs and EDs were at risk of being overwhelmed, we shut down the world to flatten the curve.
When pediatric ICUs and EDs are overwhelmed, public life continues like nothing’s happening.
I’d be heartbroken if I wasn’t so angry

Hi Brian. Thanks for floating that private schools and coupons idea out there yesterday. You're an absolute champion my friend. Listen, one more favour to ask. Tomorrow I want you to write a column about how the Greenbelt is the best place to build "affordable" housing. *snicker*
Click the link to voice your concerns about @fordnation's plan to destroy parts of the Greenbelt for development while "moving the land elsewhere!?!"

If this were about keeping kids in class and nothing more, the government would agree to binding arbitration.
It's not.
It's about crushing a union to send a message.

🧵 Here’s a short thread explaining why the Ford government’s move today is history-making and extremely alarming. It’s DEFCON 1 for all workers. 1/

Outrageous. The notwithstanding clause was not intended for this. It’s casual use by govts is alarming
BREAKING: the Ford government will invoke the notwithstanding clause in order to impose a new contract on CUPE.
This is the 3rd time the government has used this measure.

This "catch up" payment is so morally corrupt and a total slap in the face to all education workers and parents. This pithy payment is not enough to affect change at an individual level. Increase the supports IN school @Sflecce.
Ensuring students catch up starts with them staying in school without disruption.
@fordnation is increasing supports for students & direct financial relief to parents.
Ontario's new #CatchUpPayment:
🔹$200/child
🔹$250/child (spec ed)
