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 💔

@zengarden17 @fordnation Absolutely! The community has lost not only a key occupational and educational hub, but also access to the spaces around the building for recreation. Doug didn’t have to fence off the entire area 😢

@DrKateTO @fordnation Also all the students who lived in the Flemingdon Park and Thorncliffe Park area have lost a vital job source.

Shovels are in the ground to build the new Ontario Science Centre, a cornerstone of the reimagined, year-round Ontario Place. This new world-class facility will have more space for programming than ever before, upgrading Ontario Place’s famous pods and Cinesphere and supporting over 1,000 good-paying jobs in tourism and construction.

@ColinDMello Someone who prides himself on saving taxpayer money would have spent 20-30M to repair the architectural gem that is the existing Ontario Science Centre, instead of spending $1B to open a much one smaller under a jet flight path and next to a $600M garage. Respect for taxpayers?

Premier Doug Ford says he’s “ticked off”about the $200,000 in additional costs for the government jet. Ford says he “prides himself” on saving taxpayer money, but won’t say whether he or the PC party will pay it back. #onpoli

@Joyhenderson78 @fordnation Ontario is on the hook for millions/year if Doug doesn't fill the Ontario Place parking garage. Who's going to want to pay $$$ to visit a MegaSpa right underneath a jet landing path? Moving the OSC to Ontario Place seems like a desperate attempt to get cars into Therme's garage.

@fordnation Our old science center was fine. The roof didn't collapse. You just promised some buddy the land and are now making Ontarians pay for something else that wasn't needed.

The Ford government has never shared how much taxpayer $$$ they are spending on fencing and 24/7 security around the existing Ontario Science Centre, packing up, moving, and storing the exhibits, and renting mall/Harbourfront space. Respect for taxpayers? #onpoli

Toronto's 12-month analysis of the impact of Hospital Row bike lanes showed limited to no impact on regular flow so it's hard to believe lights and sirens would feel an impact. The problem was construction. In 19 years as an ER doc, I've never met an EMS crew impacted. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

@TDotResident @fordnation Last year he spent $1261 to attend just 1 meeting (presumably here in Ontario). Imagine how much his two trips to the UK this year (he must have staffer(s) with him) are costing Ontario taxpayers!

One single staff member in just one of Doug Ford's ministries spent almost $24,000 on expenses last year alone, but we don't have enough money to properly staff schools, or provide kids and educators with basic school supplies. @Fordnation priorities at work. #onted #onpoli
Kimiko Shibata 🦋@ESL_fairy

Just a reminder. School boards across Ontario are making huge cuts to staff and programs right now. Not because they hate kids. Because Doug Ford has stripped away their funding over the past 8 years. Put the blame where it belongs. #OntEd

Brad was endorsed by John Tory to be the "same kind of city councillor" as his predecessor i.e., support an #AusterityTO agenda. Anyone surprised by Brad's supposed swing to the right simply got bamboozled by his cyclist/farmers market loving persona. #topoli #BEYDeservesBetter

@TomPark1n yeah they launched a year ago pretty explicitly to do this
Brad Bradford@BradMBradford

Last night was the launch of an exciting new movement to bring common sense and ambition back to City Hall: A Better City (ABC) Toronto. Despite a blizzard, hundreds of Torontonians packed into a sold-out event to hear a discussion about the state of our city. That tells me that there’s an appetite for a change of direction. But what really struck me is how much people of all walks of life care about this city. And while we were there to discuss the challenges we face, there’s still so much excitement about Toronto’s future and what kind of city we can be. Toronto has the potential to be the most livable big city in the world. But we need the right leadership. And we need to set our priorities straight. For the last couple of years, the NDP administration at City Hall has been led by ideology and special interests. ABC Toronto is a common-sense coalition that represents the rest of us. If you’re bullish on Toronto like me, ABC Toronto is for you. Learn more at abctoronto.org.

Now that IntegrityTO has flamed out and won’t get free AM radio talk time to echo Brad Bradford, a new coalition of weirdos and dark money has arrived Yammering on about something they’ve done zero research on, just saying dumb things to create controversy

@Joyhenderson78 She’s been working with him since at least March. Which is funny considering Brad complains Olivia keeps campaigning, when he’s known he would run for Mayor since at least May 2024! He’s clearly been busy with this for quite some time, all while collecting his councillor salary!

Councillor candidates must also be very clear about their perspective on Ford's meddling in our city, including: -Expanding YTZ -Destroying Ontario Place -Closing the Ontario Science Centre -Cutting trustees -Removing bike lanes and speed cameras #topoli spacing.ca/toronto/2026/0…

My MP sent me a fundraising email to help pay off campaign debt but has still not replied to my email from March about stopping Ford’s expansion of the Island airport. The 23 Toronto MPs seem to think they can just ignore this topic. It’s not going away.
Colleen 🇨🇦🇺🇦@SocialCdn

100% - The Federal government is doing nothing to stop this. Contact your MP today and tell them NO JETS at Billy Bishop. Save our waterfront. #nojets #onpoli #canpoli #toronto
