🧵It’s National Caregiver Day 🇨🇦 and I’m not here for the “you’re heroes” posts. Because heroes don’t get abandoned by the very systems that are supposed to support them. #NationalCaregiverDay #cdnpoli #onpoli @fordnation @MichaelParsa @OntarioPCParty @MarkJCarney 1/8

The Ford effect. Much of the pain being felt across Canada is just really Ontario crumbling after 8 years of incompetent, utterly disastrous leadership. Our bad numbers — healthcare, economic, housing — are dragging the country down like an anchor. It’s Doug Ford, folks.
Ontario led the declines across the board in residential construction, Statistics Canada data shows. globalnews.ca/news/11863110/…

Today, we learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company. #onpoli #freedomofinformation

What happens when @fordnation & his corrupt PC MPPs break the law, they rewrite the law to protect themselves, their donors, friends with benefits, developers, lobbyists. Then celebrate their accountability & transparency and cry foul when caught.

Hey #onted parents - ask your boards how many SLPs and CDAs were made redundant and will not be available for students next year. Non verbal kids received little no supports this year - next year it will be NO supports. @PaulCalandra & @fordnation - you’re a pair of assholes.

While @fordnation & his PC MPPs enjoy a day with their family & friends on Victoria Day Monday, they insist 100s of 1000s of Ontario workers do NOT deserve that right.

I believe in paying taxes for the betterment of all… but I also expect that the money I entrust to the government will be spent appropriately. This is not happening. Doug is not fiscally conservative. He is a disaster on so many fronts. It’s past time for a new Premier.
When did Doug Ford start buying his $30 million luxury jet? January. When did Ontarians find out? April. For months, he was secretly taking millions from taxpayers. Does he have no respect for your money? For months, he was secretly taking millions from taxpayers. Does he have no respect for your money?

.@fordnation says he wants to cut red tape &bureaucracy, but #Bill101 is biggest injection ever of red tape &bureaucracy into Ontario’s school system! aodaalliance.org/whats-new/a… #OntEd #AODA aodaalliance.org/whats-new/d…

Doug Ford lectured students about “misusing taxpayer money” to justify gutting OSAP grants. Now we know the truth: less than 1% of cases were flagged as ineligible, and not a single case was referred to police. The hypocrisy is unbelievable. This is the same Premier who cried about students allegedly buying cologne while spending $29 million of taxpayer money on a luxury jet. Students trying to afford school were never the problem. This government’s priorities are. #onpoli thestar.com/news/ontario/dou…

The auditor general has shown the public what teachers have been trying to communicate for years: The special education funding model in #OntEd is broken. Student safety and learning are at risk. Our kids deserve so much better. cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/o…

Have you heard me say that the Ministry underfunds PDSB’s special education by $45 million? Because I’m going to keep saying it. Meanwhile, the Minister took over our board for no reason and won’t give it back until *his supervisor* provides a balance or surplus. Okay. #onted

Unsurprising that after eight long years of underfunding colleges and universities, Doug Ford had to go to the United States to find one that would give him an honorary degree. #onpoli

Imagine a family with a child with disabilities being told your child is not welcomed in @fordnation schools. This is exactly what @PaulCalandra PC MPPs did this morning.

This morning during the committee mtg on bill 101, @PaulCalandra PC MPPs voted NO to help children with disabilities. They would rather these kids stay home, "Out of sight, out of mind".
At Legislature Standing Committee, Tories are voting down Opposition amendments to #Bill101 that would help students with disabilities &their parents. Tories voted against Auditor General reporting on what Bill 101 will cost taxpayers #OntEd
