A reminder that getting back to “normal” could have meant smaller class sizes, better indoor air quality, all-ages vaccination drives, free access to tests and high-quality PPE. Instead, we’ve had years now of unending sickness, with our smallest neighbours paying the price 💔

NEW: It's not just Stan Cho. Toronto-area PC MPPs have billed taxpayers over $100k for overnight stays in Toronto. The premier's office says expenses that "did not meet the spirit of the rules will be reimbursed." #onpoli thetrillium.ca/news/governmen…

@jamiewestndp I still want to know why he was spending thousands and thousands of dollars on hotel rooms when he lives only a few kms from Queen's Park. Looking through his colleagues' expense reports, it doesn't seem like this is common practice for other Toronto-based MPPs...

“Now that I’m caught, I promise to *partly* pay it back.” ~ Same thing Ford said when he had to return his private luxury jet!

@ColinDMello Can we look into others expenses? I bet there's a lot of using our money for their entitled selves

@TorontoDDG Imagine tweeting “Stay hydrated” when you are choosing to publicly support the mayoral candidate who literally voted against giving away free water to Torontonians. It’s not the heat, it’s the hypocrisy!

How did Minister of Education Paul Calandra who, let's not forget, has placed multiple Ontario school boards under "supervision", ostensibly to reign in spending, spend more than $10,000 on just 1 Holiday party at a Legion? What luxurious hot chocolate! #onpoli

Scarborough-Rouge Park MPP @TheThanigasalam spent more than $16,000 in Ontario taxpayer dollars on just 1 community BBQ last year! That's a lot of money for a 3-hour event, must have been some pretty fancy bouncy castles! #ForThePeople

Now that media are scrutinizing how MPPs like Stan Cho are spending Ontario taxpayer $$$, let's explore a few more interesting reimbursements from the "Respect For Taxpayers" team. This MPP spent over $17,000 on just 1 BBQ last year. That's a lot of hot dogs! #onpoli

It was a pleasure to sit down with Registered Professional Accountants today for an interview discussing Ontario’s digital future, innovation, and the important role of technology in delivering better public services and supporting businesses across our province. Thank you to the RPA team for the thoughtful conversation. I look forward to sharing the interview when the Professional Accountant Magazine’s Summer 2026 edition is released!

Watch Toronto Councillor @Thompson_37 address Alma Marinelarena, a public health nurse saying her position is underpaid Does Thompson have this much contempt for cops, firefighters, and other male-dominated workers who are higher-paid? Thompson's 2025 salary was $176,000

@StanChoMPP @fordnation Why did the Minister need to stay in a hotel downtown so often? The subway at Queen's Park literally goes to North York, he's doesn't even have to change trains! I wonder how much money we'll actually get back... From #GravyPlane to #GravyStaying, Fordnation strikes again!

Happy to see this coverage of @StanChoMPP’s many many $$$$$ hotel stays. @fordnation needs to stop treating Ontarians’ hard-earned money like their own personal piggy bank. We deserve a government that will truly show respect for taxpayers!

@grandsan @ColinDMello It seems as though Fordnation MPPs view Ontario taxpayer dollars as their own personal piggy bank to do with as they choose. What happened to a fiscally responsible government?
Kate Dupuis@DrKateTO

Last year this @fordnation MPP's "free" BBQ cost Ontario taxpayers more than $32,000. $32,000. How is it possible to spend that much money on a single community BBQ?? Conservatives truly see Ontario taxpayer $$$ as their own private piggybank. #onpoli #RespectForTaxpayers

@NurseArleneDias @Krissan4Scarb Thank you for the work you do. That was shameful behaviour by the councillor. Glad that Chris Moise and Alejandra Bravo jumped in with questions that highlighted the crucial work done by PH nurses in Toronto and across the province. ❤️

@DrKateTO @Krissan4Scarb Thank you for your comment Kate. We serve the same constituents as the councillors and want the same compensation that they gave themselves. It's interesting that they think nurses should work for less.

Just listened to long-time Scarborough Centre Councillor Michael Thompson try and shame a Toronto Public Health nurse for wanting to be paid appropriately for their labour. Here is the donation link for Ward 21 challenger @Krissan4Scarb: krissan4scarb.ca/donate?recruit…

Today Michael Thompson berated a public health nurse advocating for wage equity. Telling our frontline nurse provider of 29 years they’re just in it for the money is exactly the scarcity politics we need out of city hall. Vote him out - vote @Krissan4Scarb

@TweetJennifer @Krissan4Scarb Michael's having quite the day! He started off by replying to an anti-vaxxer: "Great amounts of research on both sides". Not sure why a sitting councillor in Canada's largest city is publicly "both-siding" vaccines in 2026?

My favourite part of this video is that, while 2026 Brad is talking, you can clearly see cyclists moving along in the bike lane on the North side of Adelaide, which 2019 Brad voted to make permanent. Fix It Friday? More like Flipflop Friday! #BEYDeservesBetter #topoli

Time spent sitting in traffic is time away from your family and friends. And it's because of poor city planning. Here is my Fix it Friday plan for Adelaide Street and Toronto-wide congestion. Join us to build a city we can be proud of: bradford26.ca/petitions/cong…

Remember, John Tory endorsed Brad to be the same kind of councillor as his “fiscally responsible” Beaches predecessor who, ironically, voted for the current “hybrid” Gardiner plan. Can we please not elect yet another #AusterityTO member to council here in Beaches-East York?

This candidate has been out canvassing with people who used to work for Brad/are supporting Brad, including a Strategy Corp VP (in case you wonder why he’s never spoken out against the MegaSpa at Ontario Place) and this spokesperson for ABC Toronto.

Apparently this candidate has been telling people at the doors that she would bring back the Gardiner’s Lakeshore ramp. This would mean moving backwards, overturning a decade of urban planning, not to mention ripping up roads, bike lanes, and green spaces. #topoli
Britt Caron@briketysplit

/1 On the right holding the sign here is Kelly Aizicowitz from @abctoronto_, campaigning for Natalie Johnson in Beaches East York. If you want to replace Brad with more of the same useless representation we've had here for years, these people are for you.
