Unemployment is climbing, grocery prices are through the roof, and food bank lines are stretching around the block. Yet, the new budget managed to skip over two key things making life unaffordable: rent and groceries. Who is this budget for & why is this govt missing the mark on issues that matter?

331 teachers fired at Peel and mass emails being sent with all the names of those who were laid off. This is what you get when you appoint an unqualified supervisor who's only credentials are having worked for a Conservative. The buck stops with the Minister and his supervisor.
Renting in Ottawa shouldn't be a luxury. With 1-bdrms averaging over $2,000, the cost of living is pushing people to the brink. I’ve tabled a petition for rent control so no one has to choose between food and a roof over their head. #onpoli
The government is sitting on $462 million in unspent education funds while teachers go without paper and pencils. They appointed insiders making $350k a year who watch in silence as teachers are fired and programs are slashed. This isn't a mistake. The cuts are the point, and it is unacceptable.
Using the Notwithstanding Clause is a direct attack on the Charter-protected right to free and fair collective bargaining. That's why I tabled a petition brought forth by OSSTF/FEESO to demand an end to this practice. It’s time to respect workers and the law. #onpoli
The Minister's handpicked supervisors are making nearly $400,000, but cutting educators and teachers to save money. I asked the Premier why he is more focused on firing teachers than properly funding our schools. #onted #onpoli
This government has spent years neglecting our public education system through chronic underfunding. Now, they are sabotaging students' future by slashing OSAP and leaving students stranded. It’s a pattern of neglect that proves they simply don't care about our children. #onpoli #onted #saveosap
You can’t claim to be "tough on crime" while presiding over a system where more than half of all charges are dropped. Courtrooms are triple-booked and under-resourced and Bill 75 addresses none of this. This govt is failing victims, failing on public safety, and letting the justice system crumble.
One day of hearings for a major education bill tells you everything you need to know. If Bill 101 actually met the needs of our community, the Minister wouldn’t be rushing it through. He’s only giving us 1 day because he’s afraid to hear that people don’t support his power grab. #onted #onpoli
When Special Education is underfunded, students are excluded, full stop. The minister knows this is happening, yet won’t take responsibility by eliminating his own deficit and committing to fully funding Ontario’s education system. #onted #onpoli
Tomorrow, my bill, the Protecting Seniors' Rights in Care Homes Act, will be debated. Currently, seniors across the province are facing unimaginable stress from rent and care fee hikes, as high as $30,000. This bill aims to regulate these costs so that no senior is forced out of their home. #onpoli
