I love the moon but I never wanted to get close to it. It exerts enough magnetic power over us from afar and I respect the distance.

Just play it on repeat. #onpoli

WilmotCAN has 42 FOI requests out about the Wilmot Land Grab. Speak up against Ford's FOI rollback. We the taxpayers have a right to know what business an elected official is doing on our dime. Send this pre-written letter: win.newmode.net/waterwatcher... #wilmotlandgrab #onpoli

More and more Doug Ford is leaning into his most anti-democratic instincts. #OnPoli

“I think we need to put some information out there, be it social media or commercials or whatever it might be, because people deserve to know what we’re doing" I've got this craaazy idea: if Doug wants to tell us how he's spending our 💰, he could do sit-down media interviews. They're free. #OnPoli

Documents released through an FOI request show Danielle Smith and Demetrios Nicolaides met with 17 groups involved in a campaign to “conservatize” Alberta school boards via @theijf.org theijf.org/article/albe...

Ontario government protects Ontario government by not saying what Ontario government is spending to tell taxpayers how the Ontario government is protecting them.

Yes! I am interested in the 95 year Ontario Place Therme lease and the auditor’s findings. You, Ontario voter, should be too. Why? Because this super shady deal against the best interests of the people of Ontario, is the template for all crooked Doug Ford's deals. #onpoli bsky.app/profile/nina...

As the Region of Waterloo struggles with a growing water shortage, recent council meetings have been dominated by debate over provincial water-taking permits in the region. for @nationalobserver.com www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/06/n...

Why is the province permitting water taking for gravel mines when there is a shortage of groundwater for drinking water? #protectontario #waterlooregion #watertaking @WR_Record #kitchener #waterloo #onpoli www.cambridgetoday.ca/local-news/r...

The Region of Waterloo is facing an immediate crisis—a manmade water shortage. Tell the provincial government to freeze all industrial and commercial water-taking permits until there's a sustainable path forward. act.environmentaldefence.ca/page/187241/...

The Ontario government could have spent that $1.3B buying units, which we would then permanently own and could rent out at non-market rates. But just like the 407, the priority is to socialize costs and privatize profits today and for the future.

If you read through to the end it is very hard to see this article as anything but an advert for High Art Capital and their Ontario Taxpayer $1.3B subsidized real estate scheme. #onpoli #nepotism #corruption

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

I hope I get a chance to see this

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Illegally shooting, moose The dumping of hundreds of carcasses, really starting to think that Canada should be rethinking exactly who from America comes in. This shit cannot continue to happen within our borders by parasitic cockroaches from the south!!! Trust me www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Developing narrative for Ford to be a *Visionary w/ Visions*. Subtle pivot from *Protecting Ontario*, *Getting it Done* & being *For the People*. Election coming? His handlers at Strategy Corp, Navigator & Rubicon will tart him up as *wise old leader & alacritous innovator* in 5,4,3,2,1.... #onpoli

Doug Ford never campaigned on this. Not in 2018. Not in 2022. Not in 2025. Now he wants to appoint regional chairs with veto power? That's not conservative. That's a power grab. If he thinks voters want it, call an ELECTION. Today. #CDnpoli #ONpoli #CanadaStrong

#onpoli #freedomofinformation

Or health care. Or parks. Soon, it will be public education. It's nuts that we can let Doug Ford run spurious election campaigns and never get past the slogans. "For the People", "Get the Job Done", & "Protect Ontario". Every one a lie, obscuring an abysmal record & a terrible intent. #onpoli

#onpoli #freedomofinformation

Again, I ask every single conservative in Ontario if it were any other majority government pulling this bullshit, would you be OK with it? If the answer is no, then you cannot in good conscience be OK with this parasitic hijacking government doing it themselves. Only cowards and crooks hide

#onpoli #DougFord

Ontario - write and call your MPPs and tell them this law must not be passed.

#onpoli #Ontario #DougFord

Doug Ford's problem with phone records isn't that talking to fat cats is illegal, it's that they provide threads that can pulled on. They will yield other freedom of information requests. Soon enough, King Doug Ford's entire criminal enterprise would be exposed. #onpoli bsky.app/profile/mari...

"It remains to be seen how nine regional conservation authorities is really an improvement over the originally proposed seven when the current system includes 36 conservation authorities directly governed by the municipalities they serve." www.therecord.com/opinion/cont...

And when was it ever part of the stated cough *mandate*? #onpoli #cdnpoli I mean, did we ever see the man stand up during the election and declare his interest in privatizing water? That's right. We didn't.

Ontarians: #onpoli #cdnpoli #democracy #secrecy #accesstoinformation

I have long since abandoned any presumption of good faith in cases like this. Toronto is lying about a positive policy change because the utmost priority of city planning is preserving political power — not achieving actual positive outcomes.

"We should all be furious. Transparency is the oxygen of democracy, and Ford is happily stomping on our collective neck."

Agreed.

Doug Ford has -gamed election finance law to, first, give himself an overwhelming financial advantage. Second, to institute a system of graft whereby big donors get to express their interests directly, with money in hand. It's his version of Citizen's United. #onpoli #FordFailedOntario

Edmonton got rid of its downtown airport and it was liberating. It was a haven for private jets.

Where are Ontario's emergent whistleblowers? Not everyone can be happy with Dear Leader. Must be a couple of disgruntled and disenfranchised PCs around with a secret or two on the tips of their tongues. How happy are the minions really? IO anyone?Anyone?

I have news for anyone who thinks democracy in Ontario is healthy. It is not. Doug Ford is a dino, Democrat in name only. His template for government exists, but you'll have to go to Hungary, governed by the fascist pariah Viktor Orban, to find it. #onpoli #cdnpoli bsky.app/profile/dian...

"The airport lounge — opened by Queen Elizabeth II in June 1959 — is a shining example of modernist architecture and design...the room is one of the “most complete and authentic mid-century modern public spaces in Canada.” “It really is a time capsule, in many regards.”

Many thanks to thetrillium.ca for staying on this file. They get it. Transparency is fundamental to good, honest government. Doug Ford's government is neither transparent or honest. It resembles a crime spree. This essential reporting is not paywalled. You owe it to yourself as a citizen to read it.
