Every single day, we send Premier @fordnation a new investment that is being made in Ontario. We’ve done it for more than 2,000 days straight - sharing more than 2,000 different projects that have fueled our economy. Last month alone, those investments totalled $2.7 billion, creating 6,700 new jobs. In these times of uncertainty, businesses from around the world recognize a simple truth: there is no better place to grow and create jobs than right here in Ontario.

I joined the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board today to talk about our plan to build new homes and make housing more affordable. We’re cutting the HST, saving homebuyers up to $130,000 off the cost of a new home, and investing $8.8 billion in partnership with the federal government to build new infrastructure that will support more homes across Ontario.

Stronger action is needed to #ProtectOntario communities. That’s why our government is advancing new, tough-on-crime public safety measures. At the same time—the federal government needs to pass Bill C-14 and deliver the long-overdue bail reform Canadians have been waiting for.

I was thrilled to be joined by a united group of leaders from across Ontario to make the case for Toronto and Ontario as the new Defence, Security and Resilience Bank headquarters. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

National Nursing Week is a chance for us all to thank our incredible nurses for the compassionate care and support they provide every day. Since 2018, we’ve helped an historic 100,000 nurses join our province’s workforce. Thirty thousand more are currently studying at Ontario schools, many of them supported by our Learn and Stay Grant, which covers tuition for nurses who stay and work in underserved parts of the province. Happy National Nursing Week!

Since 2023, Ontario pharmacists have delivered over 2.4 million assessments for common ailments, with more than 99 per cent of pharmacies participating across the province. We’re building on this success by letting pharmacists prescribe for even more minor ailments, so families can access more convenient care, closer to home.

There’s nowhere else in Canada that can match the world-class workforce, banking and defence manufacturing expertise, and global connections that Toronto and Ontario offer. To make the Defence, Security and Resilience Bank an immediate success, it needs to be headquartered in Toronto.

People across Ontario are feeling the impact of global uncertainty and President Trump’s tariffs on their household budgets. That’s why we’re doing everything we can to cut taxes, lower fees and make life more affordable for Ontario families.

This National Police Week and every week, our government will always have the backs of the incredible women and men in uniform who keep Ontario safe.

This Mother’s Day, I want to thank all the amazing moms across Ontario and celebrate the strength, love and support you show your families each and every day. Thank you and Happy Mother’s Day!
