Stan Cho lives a 20 minute drive away from Queen's park and has a tax payer funded car and driver yet chose to spend many nights at a hotel. It's inexcusable. Living a life of luxury on our dime. #OAC #ONpoli

"Disgusting": Doug Ford complains about criticism of his wildfire-fighting budget. Oppo and gov agree about how much is being spent: $150M up front, plus more as needed. Opponents say more should be budgeted up front. @jackhauen.bsky.social has a good explainer: www.thetrillium.ca/insider-news...

Same as Steve Clark when the Greenbelt hit. Same as Will Bouma when he disagreed with MPP's pension details out loud. And now Stan Cho also has to step away so as not to be seen as one of Doug Ford's expensive little Cabinet of Curiosities #onpoli

Doug Ford has actually spent more time at Tim Horton's and MacDonald's pushing cookies and cooking and preparing egg McMuffins, then showing up at Queens Park. He is the master of Smoke and Mirrors. And now he is creating the Smoke at our personal expense. #DougFordFailedOntario just breath it in.

There is a lot of hot air blowing across #Ontario today, right Doug Ford: “Our government will not spare an expense, not one single penny; we will spend whatever it takes to support getting them the support and resources they need to keep people safe" toronto.citynews.ca/2026/07/16/o...

🇨🇦⚠️ ATTENTION CANADA and ONTARIO Message from NDP leader MARIT STILES: You cannot build a stronger country on the ashes of its communities. Resilience doesn't mean looking away from reality. It means preparing for it. I refuse to accept that we have to choose between a strong Canada and a safe one.

Ford's plastic wrapped suburban, donut eatin'/ convenience store and casino lovin' worldview is all consuming and leaves EVERYTHING else underfunded by its very nature. Just don't call it underfunding the emergency firefighters because he would nuvver uvver UVVER do that. UVVER. #OnPoli

Doug Ford’s reckless “plan” for Toronto’s waterfront isn’t a done deal yet. We have a better plan - a balanced combination of healthy communities, recreational opportunities, amazing parks, economic development and a regional airport on the island that’s easy to deal with and works…

"Axworthy said that Canada’s foreign policy has turned into what is on Carney’s shopping list, remarking that the approach has been a 180-degree shift for the Liberal Party... “We didn’t vote for this kind of transactional foreign policy, which is what we have.” #CdnPoli

Thank you, Avi. I am furious. I'm sick. I want no part in all of this destruction & genocide from Carney & his greedy, cowardly Liberal MPs. If you're a pissed off liberal voter, it's time to ditch those cons. We have a fight ahead of us to survive and to end our complicity in this all. #cdnpoli

Carney’s “AI for All” is a big loser in so many ways. He has clearly put zero thought into the full environmental, societal, educational, and political implications of the tech bros’ race to cram this into our lives so they can profit as the planet burns. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

And Ford, Smith and Carney want pipelines. We need to run these selfish assholes out of power! They don’t represent the needs of people or planet. Running a government like a business means corporations win and we lose! Stop falling for the “it’s good for the economy” garbage!

Reminder that Carney has cut funding for Natural Resources Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, Indigenous and Northern Affairs, and Indigenous Services. And he has rolled back climate protections, abandoned emissions targets, and is building more pipelines.

The additional support needed is a drastic reduction in fossil fuel use and stabilizing our education and healthcare system instead of fighting to build more pipelines.

Wake up and smell it Doug Ford. Smell your inaction, your selfish ineptitude, your corruption, your phoney slogans. Take a good sniff. Fill your lungs. It stinks. #OnPoli #corruption

Days like today really make me want to go down and visit the science kiosk-datacenter airport and spa formerly known as Ontario Place. #OnPoli

You know what would make this #Toronto vignette even better? More jets in the downtown core and a few more pipelines.

So where are you tonight Doug Ford as the sun prepares to set in a wall of forest fire smoke in #Toronto? You are in the USA? Back in Alberta? Or are you in a hotel room in TO like the rest of your Toronto CON Mpps? Perhaps you should get in your truck and drive north tomorrow and fight the fire.

Looking outside I could be on Mars. Going outside it smells like my shirt after a long weekend camping. One of these days, in the not too distant future, we'll succeed in lighting the great peat bogs around James Bay on fire. We'll never be able to put that out. #cdnpoli #onpoli
