NEW: From NDP Leader Avi Lewis about Billy Bishop airport: “The choice facing the Prime Minister is clear. Premier Ford is in the middle of a land grab and the federal government has both the power and the responsibility to stop this irresponsible and anti-democratic move.”

We spent the time we had in the legislature fighting to lower costs and put money back in people's pocket. We pushed to scrap taxes on all groceries. We pushed to ban AI-driven surveillance pricing. We pushed to stop big grocery chains from using anti-competitive loopholes that keep cheaper stores out of your neighbourhood. Doug Ford’s government voted it all down. Instead, they spent their time on private jets, hiding records, luxury projects, and selling off Toronto’s waterfront to Wall Street. That's the cost of their corruption. It gets in the way of making life more affordable for people. I won’t stop fighting

He fired his own caucus chair for raising concerns about the $30M jet. While families struggled with grocery bills and hospital wait times, the Premier has spent the last 10 weeks managing his own scandals. He works for the big billionaires of America. Not you.

Torontonians aren’t asking for a runway on the lake so Bay Street CEOs can land their private jets. They’re asking for better health care, smaller class sizes, and safer highways in Northern Ontario. Those are the priorities that matter.

Cuba is out of fuel, strangled by the US fuel chokehold. People are dying, systems are breaking down. This is collective punishment against a people who have done absolutely nothing except live their lives under hard conditions imposed by the US blockade for decades. It’s a blatant violation of international law, a crime in progress. Canadians are connected to Cuba: we’ve been welcomed, had great holidays, heard incredible music, done business and made friends. We need to help Cuba right now, even if it bothers Trump: Canada should send immediate humanitarian fuel aid, in as much quantity as we can quickly assemble. And we should be speaking out loudly on the international stage: US military action against Cuba is absolutely unacceptable! It’s time for the countries of the world to rally and stop this impunity before it takes another sovereign country into chaos. We have to come to Cuba's aid. What's happening is too cruel, too horrible.

THOUSANDS out to stop #dougford’s hospital privatization today! #protest #toronto

MP Gazan Statement on the Fifth Anniversary of the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc Announcement Five years ago, the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation shared preliminary findings of an investigation that indicated over 200 unmarked burials at the Kamloops Residential School site, courageously confirming a truth that Indigenous communities have known to be true for decades - that the Indian Residential School System was a genocidal project. The validation of the unmarked graves brought tremendous grief, heartache and pain to Indigenous people across the country, especially for survivors and the families who lost loved ones in residential schools. The devastating trauma, grief and hurt have been compounded by the surge in dangerous residential school denialism that has drastically spread in the last five years. Residential school survivors, families and communities have sacrificed so much to bravely share their truth, truths that Canada needed to hear, their experiences of violence, loss and resilience. Without truth, there can be no reconciliation. Survivors provided us with a path toward reconciliation, and we must ensure that they are treated with the dignity, respect and safety that they are entitled to. This means protecting survivors, families and communities from the incitement of hate being perpetrated by denialists who aim to justify, condone, downplay and minimize the genocide that occurred in residential schools. Along with survivors and families, I put forward Bill C-254 to add residential school denialism to the criminal code. The legislation will protect survivors, families and communities from the incitement of hate that is being catalyzed by a few vocal agents who are seeking to undermine the well-documented atrocities with racism and colonial violence. “Today, I wish to honour all survivors and intergenerational survivors of residential schools. Your truth needs to be honoured. I stand by you, and uplift you, today and every day,” says Gazan. leahgazan.ca/2026-statement-…

#BREAKING: In April, Doug Ford rewrote the law to hide his own phone records and cabinet documents. Now his government has told public servants to stop answering Freedom of Information requests altogether, the ones the law still requires them to answer. First he changed the rules. Now he's stonewalling. I've written to the Secretary of Cabinet demanding answers.

By now it’s unsurprising that Carney’s Liberals are openly anti-worker, repeatedly caving to corporate interests and violating the right to strike through Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code. While the Liberals quietly plan changes to our labour laws that ignore the voices of workers, the @NDP is saying loud and clear: no more attacks on workers’ rights. As the government teams up with big CEOs to roll back fundamental rights, we need working class communities across Canada to resist corporate-backed authoritarianism. That starts with passing #BillC247 to repeal Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code. thestar.com/politics/federal…

The problem isn’t public health care. The problem is that the Ford government is defunding & dismantling our public hospitals and other services in order to privatize them. #onpoli #healthcare #nurses #protest #ontario #dougford

Governor Newsom has balanced California's deficit. Mayor Mamdani has balanced NYC's Doug Ford has increased Ontario's deficit to $13.8 Billion Making the rich richer and the poor poorer fails everyone

Doug Ford mocked students for taking “basket-weaving courses” and blowing OSAP money on “luxury watches and colognes.” A new report shows less than 1% of OSAP funds were misused. Less. Than. 1%. He invented a crisis to cut student aid – then pulled $30 million from people’s pockets to buy himself a luxury private jet. I’ll keep fighting this government until the cuts to OSAP are reversed.

Today is Moose Hide Campaign Day. A day to stand against gender-based violence. A day to honour the women, children, and Two-Spirit people whose lives have been taken or shattered by it. The campaign was inspired near the Highway of Tears by a father and daughter who wanted men and boys to take responsibility for ending this violence. The small moose hide pin is a promise: to honour, respect, and protect the women and children in our lives. Today, we honour every family still searching, every survivor still healing, and every community still carrying this grief. Ending this violence is everyone’s work. It starts with all of us.

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.

And NDP Leader Marit Stiles -

BREAKING: Doug Ford’s luxury jet cost taxpayers nearly $200,000 in additional fees. He told us there were no additional costs for returning it. He lied. While Ontarians can’t afford groceries or rent, Ford is living like a rockstar on your dime.

ONA has announced an historic constitutional challenge to strike down a 1965 law that strips nurses of fundamental rights to meaningful collective bargaining, including the right to strike. Read the media release: ona.org/news/20260511-hldaa-… #onlab #onpoli #onhealth

Isn't this like the exact opposite of what Carney ran on during the federal election? How much more is Carney going to cave to Trump before ppl realize that he's selling us out?
