Premier Doug Ford and Minister Sylvia Jones are both not in the legislature, a day after news came out they’d been summoned to appear before the Emergencies Act Inquiry in Ottawa #onpoli

The buck needs to stop with Doug Ford. We expect our leaders to show up. Doug Ford needs to show up at the #EmergenciesActInquiry and explain his inaction. #onpoli #ottawa

In case you were wondering what the stakes are around bill C-11, your local far-right influence op is here to remind you.

Evidence shows that Doug Ford spoke with the occupation, but wont speak with the Public Order Emergency Commission. Draw your own conclusions.

As you hear about CUPE strike action, never forget that Stephen Lecce took $465 million out of the education budget to pay parents, when $235 million would have avoided a strike. #39KIsNotEnough #onted #IStandWithCUPE

A reminder, Doug Ford & his complicit MPPs are the most corrupt, misogynist, incompetent gov. They are laughing at Ont as they enjoy their 16.6% raises, $130,000-$180,000+, enhanced benefits, $2300 per month housing allowance, while they destroy HC & education. You are next!

An emergency sitting of Ontario legislature started at 5am to rush approval of Stephen Lecce’s “Keeping Students in Class” Act, which overrides Charter of Rights & Freedoms, Human Rights Code & collective bargaining rights, & instead imposes ed workers’ contract & criminalizes strikes

I did not realize that the Federal government can challenge the a province when it makes use of the notwithstanding clause. If this legislation passed I call upon the Federal government to challenge the Ford government’s misuse of section 33 of the Charter.

In 40 years, notwithstanding has only been used twice in Ontario, both times by Doug Ford He used it in June 2021 to limit the freedom of expression of his political opponents during the election lead-up Now he using it again to wipe out collective bargaining

I am appalled by the way in which the notwithstanding provision is being used. I am appalled by the (unstated, yet real) rationale. The Ford government has reached two very important conclusions about its situation and its political opportunity, and is acting on them. #onted
