The gap between social assistance rates and market rents continues to leave municipalities to bear the financial brunt thru city-funded emergency shelters, mobile outreach, and local relief funds. Sudbury is but one example. #Ow #ODSP @MichaelParsa sudbury.com/local-news/price…

The Liberal’s promise to eliminate homelessness within 10 yrs is like THEIR promise 6 yrs ago to lift disabled Canadians out of poverty (hasn’t happened) They’ll just gaslight the public into thinking they did something, like the “woefully inadequate” CDB, and call it “historic”

BREAKING: $618,000 in taxpayer dollars to rename Science Centre Station. Add that to: ➡️$700 million to build a new Science Centre. ➡️Millions spent on temporary science exhibits. ➡️Millions more to decommission the original Science Centre. And what is the cost to an entire generation of young people losing access to what was once one of the world’s greatest science centres? #ONpoli

If you're a billionaire, this budget is Christmas come early. Canadians are struggling with the cost of everything — groceries, rent, medication, and everything in between. But this budget only makes it easier for the same corporations fuelling the crisis to profit even more.

It should. Worst health minister in my close to 44 years in Perth.
I think this is the sort of thing that will end @SylviaJonesMPP tenure as health minister....

Ford wants to fast-track AI data centres while municipalities raise concerns about electricity, water use and the environment. Who pays for the infrastructure? Who controls our data? Do communities get a say? @fordnation why rush approvals before these questions are answered?
Ford government ramming through data centres without adequate safeguards or transparency and in face of legitimate community concerns is not just bad policy, it’s terrible politics.

The @liberal_party created the most ineffective, pathetic, non-inclusive "solution" to end government-imposed POVERTY of Persons With Disabilities in Canada - called the Canada Disability "Benefit"! Yet another FAILURE for Disabled Canadians @FP_Champagne - Budget 2026! 😡🤨🤨🤨

Avi Lewis: "One in five dollars spent by this government in this budget right now is going to the military, is going to weapons and war. That is not an agenda that deals with the cost of living crisis."

Doug Ford is meeting Quebec’s Premier today, behind closed doors. How did Ontarians find out? From QUEBEC’S public agenda! Why does another province provide more information about our Premier’s schedule than his own office? Transparency isn’t optional. Who are you accountable to?

At Ottawa's Queensway-Carleton Hospital occupancy hit 107% this week. Anything over 85% brings increased risks to patients and much longer waits. Ministry of Health says the staff cuts there have no impact on patient care.

I'm really upset over the budget. Does nobody care that Canadians are going to the food banks and they can't keep up with the demand? I know a large majority are folks on government support. Isn't it time the government steps up for people instead of corporations? #disability

Doug ford is the “criminal” here. He created the conditions for this to happen and ignored it when it did. #dougfordiscorrupt
Premier Doug Ford on the OSAP freeze: KPMG is prioritizing low-risk colleges so they can get back up and running, but he says the province will not risk the OPP investigation. “We’re going to catch these criminals… If you want to scam the taxpayers of Ontario, we’re going to catch you.”

Watch. Every single year under Ford gov education funding went down.⬇️ Stephen Lecce underfunded education by $6.3 Billion, 20,000 Ontario students couldn’t attend school because of a lack of special education supports @OntAutism & grew the school repair backlog to $17 Billion.
Watch. Yesterday, in Question Period, NDP Leader Marit Stiles sent Doug Ford a photo of some of his cabinet ministers celebrating the opening of some private career colleges that are now under scrutiny. Marit Stiles says Doug Ford "ripped up" the picture.⬇️

“She has lied and people have died.” Moments ago at Queen’s Park: NDP MPP Robin Lennox is kicked out of the chambers for calling Health Minister Sylvia Jones a liar, following revelations that Ontario refused to fund Sabrina Apitz-Grossman’s cancer treatment despite its own health agency’s recommendation.
