Internal docs show MTO staff warned against Ford govt’s bike lane removal: “No empirical evidence that ties bike lanes as the sole source of congestion, nor is there data that shows removing bike lanes help with better traffic flow” thestar.com/news/gta/doug-… #onpoli ($48m waste)
Internal records show provincial bureaucrats refuted Doug Ford’s arguments before he ordered Toronto bike lanes removed. thestar.com/news/gta/doug-fo…

The end of municipal democracy in Ontario.
Ford appoints his cronie as Chair of Muskoka Region.
Ford has stripped the people of Muskoka, Peel, York, Halton, Niagara, Durham, Waterloo, and Simcoe County of the right to elect a Regional Council Chair in next week's election.
Instead, he will appoint the Chairs—who will be able to force through decisions even if 2/3rds of elected Councillors vote against them.
#onpoli
NEW: The Ford government is expected to name Conservative MP Scott Aitchison as Muskoka’s first “strong chair,” @readpolicorner has learned.
Aitchison announced late last month that he would leave federal politics to “explore new opportunities.”

14 Registered Nurses laid off from one Ontario ICU.
Ontario is already facing significant nursing workforce pressures, yet RN cuts continue. At the same time, nurses are caring for 7–8 acute patients and hallway nursing is becoming normalized. This should concern all of us, not just nurses. Patients deserve safe care. Nurses deserve safe working conditions. We need to stop normalizing this and start taking action.

NEW : Trump UNLOADS on Canada at a Kentucky rally
called out Trudeau by name, and made it clear he’s done subsidizing our system.
Key quotes:
“Canada’s taken advantage of us for 50 years… we lose $90 billion a year and I don’t like losing money on anything.”
“We had Trudeau who’s a not a good guy. Loser.”
“Your current guy is a nice guy, but he’s not nice when it comes to trade… they’re learning and they’re suffering.”
“I do not want to lose $90 billion for the privilege of allowing Canada to have a health care system… They spend our money very unwisely.”
He also noted Canada does 95% of its business with the U.S. while we do very little with them by comparison.
He's right about a lot, especially that Trudeau is a loser.
That guy ruined this country as the world's largest virtue signal.

“Basically, what they're saying is ‘we're peeling back the rebate. Electricity’s even more expensive. Get used to paying more,’” he said. “At the consumer level, for individuals, that's a very bitter pill to swallow.”

President Obama masterfully negotiated an agreement that prevented Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
Trump tore it up and went to war—only to lose the lives of 13 brave Americans, raise prices at the pump, and sign a failure of a “deal” that costs taxpayers billions.

FOI found a secret meeting between Galen Weston & Doug Ford on 14 August 2018 regarding freezing minimum wage at $14 an hour as Doug Ford said to Avi Lewis, "That's right. Let's give more money to the Westons. Godbless the Westons."
NEW - Ontario retailers can open for business this Victoria Day Monday. But what about employees who were looking forward to a day off? “No one is going to force them to work" Minister @stcrawford2 tells me.

Premier Ford skipped question period today, one day after government documents revealed Ontario taxpayers covered nearly $200K in expenses tied to the purchase & resale of his $28.9M private jet.
The opposition is now demanding he repay the money. #onpoli

President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”

I had a one-sided interview today with Natural Resources Minister @mikeharrisjrpc about why his ministry was involved in the procurement of a private jet for Premier Ford. Documents revealed Wednesday that getting rid of the jet cost $190k #OnPoli #Ontario

At Queen’s Park: the Ford government’s private jet dominates question period.
Doug Ford said taxpayers wouldn’t be on the hook, but documents show nearly $200K in costs tied to the plane’s purchase & quick resale.
Opposition wants premier to pay the money back to taxpayers.
Advocate for Homelessness, Autism, Tenant Rights retweeted
It appears Premier Doug Ford's office didn't include the costs of HST into the initial public disclosure -- meaning the jet actually cost north of $30 million CAD.
Ontario taxpayers were ultimately out nealy $200k in additional costs.
#onpoli
BREAKING: The Ford government has just dropped the $28.9 million "gravy plane" documents showing the province did in fact incur overage costs including:

NEW: The Ford government tried to quietly close the public feedback period on its new education bill, changing the deadline to submit comments from May 13 to May 4 without notice. They reversed course after we asked why they were limiting public input:

Premier Doug Ford asked whether he’s prepared to offer MPP Stephanie Smyth a public apology.
“I had a conversation with Stephanie and we’re moving forward…”
Ford then takes another swipe:
“I don’t worry about all the other nonsense that goes on in the legislature, going back and forth calling each other names. So I'm going to focus on the economy. They can focus on being a third party.”

NEW: Premier Doug Ford launches a personal attack against Liberal MPP Stephanie Smyth saying the only reason she's at the Ontario Legislature because "CP24 didn't want her anymore."
