Capitulate to Trump?
Are you effing serious?
Miller who is fronting this piece of legislation is up against everyday Canadians who are wondering why he thinks he needs to be a parent to our kids.

The bog creatures are upset ...
Conservatives are trying to game the Ontario Liberal Leadership and we can’t let them succeed. A few things to remember:
1) If they share something from a candidate, it could be because they like it or it could be that they think it helps them for people to see it.
2) If they criticize a candidate, it could be honest or it could be a way to highlight that candidate.
3) If they claim to support a candidate, it could be true or it could be a way to tank that candidate.
Don’t fall for the Conservative game - use your own judgment. #onpoli

Did you get a blood transfusion from that beating you took yesterday in the give and take with Mr. Lombardi ?

Just what are those fabled "Liberal Values".
People are splitting their sides laughing Steve.

I'd like a real alternative to Doug Ford.
If Eric is the guy, great. Nothing I've seen from Eric suggests he doesnt support Liberal values.
The OLP has been deeply unserious for the last 8 years. Time for change.

To everyone who has reached out over the last few days, especially those who are angry about the direction of Ontario and Canada, I have a request.
Channel it into resolve.
Have some faith that this campaign can win. Give yourself a reason to hope.
I want to ask my supporters to hold themselves to a high standard in public. Treat people with respect. Show no prejudice.
Assume good faith where you can. But do not mistake this as a call for silence.
Be loud. Make jokes. Be clever. Be optimistic. This campaign does not need to scold people into agreement.
Let’s persuade, build, and to give people a reason to believe Ontario and Canada can still win.
(And for critics, please have the maturity to understand that I don’t control which people say what online).

The standards we see in public life are not much different from the standards we collectively tolerate.
If we want better politics, we have to practise it too.
That includes being respectful of the @OntLiberal and the people involved in it.
Throughout this process, they have been professional and courteous. Especially the grassroots, who have been so welcoming as I’ve traveled the province.
We have so many good people in Ontario. From every background. From every community. I’ve never had more faith that the future here is going to be incredible.
Whether you’re a long time Liberal, a new one, or a “Lombardi Liberal”, you are welcome in the big coalition I want to build to take down our ineffective and tired government.
I’m not running against the Liberal party, but to lead it. Not to defend its past, but to give it a future.
I never expected a red-carpet rollout, nor should I have. The truth is that I still have much to prove.
I have not yet earned the trust of many Liberals, and some of my critics and skeptics have every right to be skeptical. That is healthy in a democracy.
I know I need to get better as a speaker. I know people will notice my lisp. I know a platform is not everything.
Politics is also about trust, judgment, discipline, and the ability to bring people with you.
But I also believe ideas matter. Serious ideas deserve serious debate. Criticism made in good faith will be met with good faith.
In the campaign ahead, we will put forward a vision for Ontario that offers a REAL CHOICE.
People will agree with much of it. Some will disagree with parts of it. That is exactly how it should be.
I have strong convictions, but I do not claim to have a monopoly on good ideas.
I will keep an open mind. I am prepared to have my views challenged, clarified, and improved. That is the point of democracy.
And on a personal note, I am genuinely grateful to have this opportunity to participate in it.
- - -
I also want to make something clear.
I have been consistently underestimated throughout this entire endeavour. I hope that continues.
People are looking at this race through the lens of traditional politics. I am not. So don’t expect me to become typical.
I will continue to be myself on this platform. I will continue to say what I think. And yes, I will hit back on bad-faith when it makes a point. Without apology.
This campaign is built on simple beliefs: ideas matter, people are hungry for solutions, and Ontario can still win.
Let’s own the future. 🚀

Kust another day in heavily subsized Canadian media. Aren't you the network that cut and spliced a couple of Poilievre statements.
Few believe your effluent any more.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says Canada is in a full-blown recession. Prime Minister Mark Carney insists things are going to get better.
RBC Chief Economist Frances Donald and CTV News' Chief Financial Correspondent Amanda Lang deliver a reality check.

On Saturday, I put out a sharply worded tweet taking aim at *some* of the supporters of a leadership candidate for @OntLiberal.
The tweet was not directed at the candidate, but at many of his online supporters; people who are generally well to-the-right of Premier Doug Ford and have previously supported right wing and far right parties like the PPC.
Some are even publicly on record with transphobic and anti-immigrant views. Almost all have been deeply anti-Liberal Party partisans for years.
My thesis was intentionally misrepresented by this brigade of almost exclusively conservative male bros. The type that seem to exist solely online, are devoted to defeating Liberals while praising odious figures like Elon Musk.
But my argument was/is a very simple one: people who have long been committed to defeating Liberals and don't subscribe to the party's basic values, including a commitment to social justice and supporting the most vulnerable, shouldn't be welcomed with opens arms to @OntLiberal - even amidst a time of rebuilding and renewal.
As I've said many times over the years, our party shouldn't be about purity tests: we must welcome new people into the fold; you can't meaningfully rebuild and renew without welcoming new blood and challenging the party's previously held positions and approaches.
But there is a fine line between attracting new voices and welcoming new members, who until today, have been dedicated to the defeat of Liberal parties at every level; people who will not remain Ontario Liberals for a second if their candidate of choice does not prevail.
I'm a Liberal because I believe in the marketplace of ideas and Liberal governments' record of nimbly adopting to new economic and geopolitical realities as we have seen with @MarkJCarney's gov't on the federal scene.
But what I won't tolerate is people joining our party who are anti-union, transphobic, anti-immigrant and not committed to building a fairer and more inclusive Ontario.
We must aggressively rebuild this party in the lead-up to the 2029 Ontario election. But we must do so in a prudent and thoughtful way; in a way that does not unintentionally welcome tourists into our party in a way that could prove destabilizing and ultimately counterproductive to our rebuilding efforts. #cdnpoli #onpoli

Hello friends, I am from Belgium. I am visiting America for the first time to see the World Cup. I love your country. I am in Times Square after the basketball game and I see men of all races starting fires and destroying cars. This is amazing. In Europe, only Muslims do this

Many many agree with Eric.
You can't save everyone Matty.
And spare us the most vulnerable tripe. You make personal decisions. There are outcomes to those decisions.
The families can choose to jail them out. Not the box populi

Thank God someone is pointing out the obvious Trojan horse that is Eric Lombardi. People that think the homeless and a drug addicts are degenerates and need to show some respect are not Liberals in any sense of the word.

This is reprehensible. An MP invoking Epstein to score cheap political points is an embarrassment to public discourse.
This kind of reckless, juvenile nonsense is exactly why you’re sitting in opposition instead of government. Shameful.

It’s really not a good look that many conservatives, and even far right influencers, on this platform are fawning over one particular candidate in the @OntLiberal race.
Even more problematic, many claim to be joining the party to support said candidate.
Let me be clear: we will only rebuild @OntLiberal through attracting tens of thousands of new members to our party — including new members from different political parties with conflicting views because that’s how you build a big tent and genuinely rebuild a party in clear need of renewal.
Yet new members to our party must endorse basic liberal/Liberal values. Unfortunately, many of these supposed new members don’t meet this basic test — and I find this deeply concerning. #cdnpoli #onpoli
