None of this is good. We need the province to step up and fix this.

The feds opened the door for 5,000 new doctors while the ON gov is blocking them with OINP delays and zero urgency. US physicians have told me about barriers their facing before they can practice in ON. The healthcare crisis is a leadership test, and Ford is failing. #ONpoli

Thirty-six years later, we still remember. Fourteen women, killed because they were women. We honour their dreams, their strength, and their right to live freely. We must never stop fighting gender-based violence.

Wow. That money could have paid for over 2,000 educational assistants to work with our most vulnerable students in #OntEd, keeping students and staff safe and helping all students to access learning.
It could have paid for over 500,000 student Chromebooks.
