Did you know that lobbyists for Walmart are former Doug Ford staffers? Certain lockdown decisions suddenly make a lot more sense. I missed this story from November 2020, amid the province’s slow and painful collapse: ipolitics.ca/2020/11/24/ndp…

Imagine a world so inequitable that low wage workers in poor districts (ie hotspots) fight to win a competition to survive but people in rich districts live in luxury with barely any competition at all. Is this the Hunger Games? Nope, it’s Ontario’s #COVID19 vaccine rollout.

This is a reminder that the Ministry of Education has stopped reporting cases in schools despite the fact that Special Education students and educators are still going in and cases are happening. ontario.ca/page/covid-19-…

So, my friends who live in Jane & Finch have to line up for hours just to get a vaccine right? How is this not systemic discrimination?

More than a year in, scientists like @dfisman wonder when will we all understand that COVID-19 is airborne? “And when we say this is the dominant mode of transmission, yes we believe this is driving the pandemic.” cbc.ca/1.5998165

Only with Doug Ford’s government would you see Ontario’s highest risk areas getting the least amount of vaccines. Disgraceful leadership. Certainly not “for the people”. #onpoli

This is the best thing I've ever seen: a website that tracks every single terrible thing Ford has done since becoming Premier. #NeverForget #VoteFordOut2022 #VoteThemAllOut ofl.ca/power-of-many-…

Other than a brief media appearance on Thursday, nothing has changed and Ford has gone back into hiding. Municipalities are taking action as the provincial government remains in stand by mode. Doug Ford needs to resign.

On Monday my bill for 10 paid sick days will be voted on in the Ontario Legislature. Retweet if you support 10 paid sick days and send Doug Ford a strong message. #onpoli #PaidSickDays #PaidSickDaysSaveLives #PaidSickDaysNow

Our stupidity as voters is getting us noticed internationally now, Ontario. #ontario #onpoli #cdnpoli 🤦🏻⬇️🔥

Other than decimate public education and poorly handling everything to do with COVID in Ontario is there anything that the Ford Government has actually done?!! This school was planned under the previous government. Yet another announcement taking credit for someone else.

Advice for education workers: Don't attempt to reason with people who are willing to treat your potential death as acceptable collateral damage. Instead work with those who are advocating for safer & healthier schools. #onted #osstf #etfo #oecta #aefo #cupe #opseu
