"Including base salaries, the current cost of Ford’s cabinet now amounts to $5.7 million compared to $3.3 million when his party first rose to power in 2018. Adding parliamentary assistants to that total comes to $6.9 million 2018 and $10 million in 2024 - a cost increase of 45 per cent." (Global)

Doug Ford’s Conservatives are taking an extended break from Queen’s Park until March 23.
People are struggling, ERs are packed, basic needs aren’t being met – and this government’s response is to ram through a bunch of harmful bills and then clock out. It’s undemocratic. #onpoli

There has to be an investigation into this fund. The information we are getting raises serious issues.
"The Ford govt gave ~$2.5M from its Skills Development Fund to businesses owned by an entrepreneur that the Ontario Securities Commission penalized a few years ago for allegedly misleading investors with inaccurate press releases."

To recap: Doug Ford destroyed parkland at Ontario Place for a private waterpark; closed Ontario Science Centre under false pretenses; and now is moving the OSC into Harbourfront.
Partial destruction of one public place; permanent destruction of another; longterm takeover of a third.
