Union says healthcare privatization has resulted in longer wait-times, unequal access and public opposition quintenews.com/2025/06/16/36…

New from @ccpa: In #Ontario, increased spending on private agency staff in hospitals is a poor use of #healthcare dollars. (In 2022/3 private agencies consumed 6% of labour costs but provided only 0.4% of frontline hours.) Report on how to change this: policyalternatives.ca/news-r…

Why we fight for a national rent freeze: “if the parties are serious about protecting people from the impacts of this trade war a, national rent freeze must be on the table…it was done before; it can be done again” @brunodobrusin via @TheBreachMedia breachmedia.ca/its-time-for-…

Anyone who says additional housing supply alone will improve affordability is choosing to ignore stories like this one. Why are they choosing to ignore these facts? Well, that is another story in itself. cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scot…

Why we should talk taxes in this #onpoli election: #1 Ont raises less revenue relative to its GDP than most provinces #2 Ont raises less revenue than almost all provinces on a per capita basis #3 Income & sales taxes are rising as a share of revenue policyalternatives.ca/news-r…

On housing, #onpoli has clear choices PCs & Libs: more support to private developers, little help to co-ops and non-profits, weak rent controls NDP & Greens: government-led housing development, support to co-ops and non-profits, strong rent controls policyalternatives.ca/news-r…

Ontario has the lowest levels of well-being of any Canadian province, according to new StatCan data. What does that mean for this provincial election? @CCPA_Ont's analysis & discussion below. #onpoli #onted #cdnpoli policyalternatives.ca/news-r…

📢 "This government has failed public education." – @ETFOpresident on @TheAgenda with @spaikin. 🔹 The former Minister of Education refused to meet with #ETFO and frontline educators. The lack of dialogue is problematic. 🔹Tens of thousands of certified teachers in Ontario have walked away from the profession due to poor working conditions. 🔹 Class sizes are growing, waitlists for special education are skyrocketing, and violence in schools is rising—yet the government won’t act. 🔹 Instead of investing in schools, the Ford Conservatives are pushing beer in corner stores while families struggle to find affordable housing, health care, and food insecurity. We need a government that prioritizes students, educators, and public services—not privatization. WATCH: youtube.com/watch?app=deskto… #onpoli #onted #CutsHurtKids

Tune in to TVO's @TheAgenda at 8/11pm EST to catch @JPHornick on labour's role in the coming election: "Let's talk about policy, let's talk about why the Conservatives are more interested in shoring up one man's job, than dealing with the threat to 500,000." #OnPoli #OnLab

It seems that Ford supported Trump because he thought he had something to gain by playing apprentice. He was never worried about protecting Ontario; he was just trying to benefit! We knew a Trump presidency would hurt Ontarians—his intentions were clear in November. #onpoli

VIDEO: Watch Ontario PC Leader Doug Ford saying today that he was "100%" happy that Donald Trump won the presidential election ... "but then the guy pulled out the knife and f--king yanked it into us." #onpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/f…

NEW: Doug Ford's hot mic moment. Caught saying he wanted Donald Trump to beat Kamala Harris: "On election day, was I happy this guy won? One hundred per cent I was. Then the guy pulled out the knife and f—-ing yanked it in me." thestar.com/politics/provinc…

Does "Polly" want an election? @spaikin asks Erin Kelly (Advanced Symbolics) what sentiment her AI pollster is gathering from the public in response to Premier Ford’s snap election call, tonight at 8/11pm | Producer: @constvarlo #onpoli

Did you know @OntHospitalAssn CEOs and the @fordnation Conservatives are intentionally understaffing public hospitals as they continue to funnel our public taxpayer money into private clinics? That's why we're demanding #NursingRatiosNow! #onlab #onpoli

Today, on behalf of the more than 1M union members and all workers in Ontario we expressed our deep concern that @fordnation is about to shut down government at a time when it should be all hands on deck. More: ofl.ca/allhandsondeck-taskfo… #OnLab #OnPoli

"We need the Ontario government on the job, fighting to protect the 500,000 jobs Ford says are imperilled. What we don’t need is a premier campaigning for his own job." Yup. thestar.com/politics/politic… #onpoli
