@ColinDMello This great news for Public transit in Toronto.
It would be great if the Federal Government would investigate transit construction cost in Ontario, as part of this funding announcement.

NEW: The Federal-Provincial-Toronto governments have agreed to cost share the Waterfront LRT which they’re calling an “east transit line”
No costs right now.
A news release says the line would serve 150,000 people, and would enable 75,000 housing unit units in the Portlands.

@l_stone I can see the Federal government doing this to get homes built.
While I see ford doing this so his developer friends can save millions of dollars in municipal development charges. Charges that municipalities need for infrastructure.

Federal, Ontario governments to spend billions to lower municipal development charges by up to 50% #cdnpoli #onpoli theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

@CanadianPM We don't want or need jets at Billy Bishop Airport in Toronto, so please don't support ford's plan to take over the airport.

@fordnation The only important announcement we want to hear from you, is that you are releasing your business and personal cellphone records immediately.

I’m with Prime Minister Carney and Mayor Chow this morning to make an important announcement about building more homes, creating good construction jobs and putting money back into people’s pockets.

@smit314 @ChapmanNeil1 @JillDunlop1 The whole Ontario PC caucus and cabinet is a bunch of puppets controlled by the corrupt puppet master premier ford.
It's time that all PC MPP'S stood up for their electors who voted for them.
Stand up to ford or face defeat in next election.

@rocketoperator @ChapmanNeil1 @JillDunlop1 What most ppl don't know — the short pants in the Premier’s office tell the short pants in all the minister's offices what to say, post or write. Just fall in line with whatever stupid idea comes out of Ford's head

Our government is supporting the long-term modernization and expansion of Billy Bishop Airport.
By expanding capacity at Billy Bishop, we can help meet growing demand in southern Ontario, reduce pressure at Toronto Pearson, support more routes and cheaper flights, and create good-paying jobs in aviation, tourism and construction.

@howllr We need American media to start asking Ford why he won't release his phone records. Along with other Ontario issues like Billy Bishop Airport or Hallway medicine or OSAP or cuts to education.
English
Ontarians are asking for transparency, accountability, and results at home. Not from America.
Doug Ford is spending taxpayer dollars on a U.S. trip—meeting with Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a Trump ally.
That choice matters.

@Freedom77015202 You would rather he fly on an Air Canada commercial flight?
This has got to be the Number 1 dumb ass post of the day.
English
The Prime Minister cannot use the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) for personal or private purposes. RCAF aircraft may only be used for official government business, under strict rules, and only with AUTHORIZATION from the Minister of National Defence.

Mark Carney flying to Boston to visits his daughter at our expense. Just a quick weekend getaway in the USA. That’s fine. Right, Elbozos?

@ConsumerSOS This will result in MetroStinks being 5 years behind schedule on opening the Ontario Line and $6 billion over budget.

@LauraBabcock There is only one thing Doug Ford has been successful at as premier and that is being corrupt.
He could teach a master's class in corruption.
English
Doug Ford failed on the economy, LTC, housing, healthcare, cities, education and jobs. He’s lost 66,000 jobs and has nothing but big stupid projects no one asked for and only his pals benefit from. Ontario CAN’T AFFORD FORD! We are so sick of this Trump-wannabe Premier. #Onpoli
Toronto Life@torontolife
Doug Ford remains committed to digging a tunnel under Highway 401 in Toronto—but his new budget doesn’t say how much it will cost torontolife.com/city/doug-ford…

@fordnation Release your phone records. Take your hands off:
Conservation authorities,
The Billy Bishop Airport,
The FOI Act
The retail holiday act.
Remember you were elected by the people for the people and not just a few rich donors.

What a joke, a new commercial for an online gaming site in Ontario. Starts with a guy outside turns to the camera and says, hello random Ontarian I'll beg your name is Doug. I'm going to call you Doug.
Is that a salute or just a butt kiss to premier Doug fraud?

@JillDunlop1 This announcement is about pleasing a donor with an airline and not the voters of Toronto.
English
@JillDunlop1 Just an FYI for you, an MPP is elected by the people for the people. You're NOT elected to go along with every corrupt deal put forth by Doug ford.
Toronto doesn't need or want jets landing at Billy Bishop Airport.
English
@knarr_rosemary @fordnation If someone would investigate I'm sure they'll find a donor or friend runs the marketing company that creates all the ads for the ford government. That would be why they keep running ads, a friend or donor profits and in turn donates more to the party.
English
STOP spending our money on ads trying to rehab yourselves. Nothing but more lies. @fordnation
Jason Cherniak@Cherniak
The Government of Ontario bought the second most expensive Ad for the Blue Jays opening game to tell us how much we should love them. They are wasting our tax dollars to do this. Stop it!!! #onpoli

@gator_gum Those taxes also pay for the upkeep of Stornoway, the staff, the food and utilities.

We pay 18p more for gas in Canada due to taxes and you know, use that for these crazy things like Healthcare....
Wild concept to some.
Pierre Poilievre@PierrePoilievre
We face the same global conditions and oil prices. We even have our own abundant supply. But Liberal taxes on fuel that are picking the pockets of Canadians, who are paying 18% more than our American neighbours. Scrap the Liberal fuel standard tax to give drivers a break at the pumps.

@PrabSarkaria Just an FYI for you, an MPP is elected by the people for the people. You're NOT elected to go along with every corrupt deal put forth by Doug ford.
As such MPP'S can either stand up to ford or cross the floor to another party or resign.
Time to put the people first.
English
For too long, Billy Bishop has been under-utilized. We’re stepping up to modernize and expand it — delivering more flights, more destinations and more affordable options for travellers.
This is how we build a stronger economy and keep up with our growing province.

@ztisdale One question, why did you come back? Stay in Florida or where in US?

I had no problems clearing United States border customs when I travelled to Florida, because I'm not an Elbows Up clown show.

@fordnation This budget should be defeated to bring you and your corruption down.
Some PC MPP'S should find the courage and vote against this budget. Because of you putting changes to FOI process into the budget
English
Ontario’s 2026 budget includes a $1.1 billion tax cut for small businesses, delivering on our promise to build a more competitive provincial economy that can stand up to tariffs.
As we cut taxes, we’re also investing record amounts in infrastructure, education and health care, so we can deliver the services Ontario families depend on.
English
@samoosterhoff Of course they welcomed the move as it done to help them and not home buyers.
While the government won't collect their HST the realtors will still collect their commission. If they wanted to help home buyers they would reduce their commission rate too.
