@LauraBabcock In France they walk until they get results, not just a day here & there. To be effective the economy needs to take a BIG hit. Proven throughout history to work. During the Harris era, majority rebelled, we got rid of him. The people have the power, not him.
After eight long years of Doug Ford’s Conservatives in gov’t, it’s getting harder to ignore the steady erosion of the public services Ontarians rely on. In healthcare, hallway medicine may not dominate headlines the way it once did, but the underlying crisis has only deepened: chronic understaffing, burnt-out nurses and growing wait times have become the norm. Instead of meaningfully investing in the public system, this government has leaned toward patchwork solutions and increased reliance on private delivery, raising real concerns about the long-term integrity of universal care in Ontario. Public education tells a similar story. Underfunded classrooms, strained teachers and widening gaps in student support have left families and educators scrambling. The government’s approach has too often felt reactive rather than strategic — whether it’s contract battles with educators or inconsistent policy direction that creates instability in schools. Ontario’s students are being asked to do more with less, while critical investments in special education, mental health resources and infrastructure lag behind what’s actually needed for a growing province. And beyond policy failures, there’s a deeper issue of trust. From the Greenbelt controversy — where protected land was opened up in ways that raised serious ethical questions — to ongoing concerns about transparency in Freedom of Information processes, this government has too often operated without the accountability Ontarians deserve. Add to that the troubling questions surrounding funds like the Human Resources Skills Development Fund, and a pattern begins to emerge: decisions that appear to favour insiders while the public is left in the dark. After eight years, Ontarians should be asking not just whether things are working — but who this government is really working for. #onpoli #cdnpoli
@Zee0731 Prior to 1991, Petro Canada had a bloated staff of 11,000. That was reduced, after privatization to 5000. Government takes more than twice the amount of people to do the work of the private sector.
💯 agree 👇#onpoli Take healthcare out of the provincial greedy hands. It’s been eight years! They know what they’re doing. Privatizing our healthcare for greed.
@CaptainDick12 @ninatangri @fordnation Money that should have gone to Education & Healthcare. (The two most important ministries of the province.) Has either been wasted or spent on @fordnation vanity projects. Ontario could be know the world over as leaders in Education & Healthcare. Instead we get 👀👇
