Doug Ford says, “Don’t go down to the US and buy a product.” #cdnpoli So why is he forcing Ontario teachers to buy $66 MILLION worth of classroom supplies… from a U.S. company?

If you plan on privatizing ports as Carney does, making sure workers can't strike is one hell of a selling point
Three weeks of right wing trucker convoy halting the capital? Nothing we can do. Three hours of senior citizens protesting environmental policy?
Those seniors must be very tough, given the number of officers needed to get the renegades under control 😵💫 Seriously though- Shameful! @markcarney.bsky.social
I will never forget these pictures as long as I live. I am grateful to them and ashamed of our government.
2/ Like so many Canadians, they want our public dollars spent on protecting the next generation, instead of climate-wrecking big corporations. They're sounding the alarm on what this government is willing to sacrifice to appease corporate lobbyists and investors. All of us should take heed.
1/ Yesterday, seniors wearing pictures of their grandchildren were arrested outside Parliament while protesting Mark Carney's climate cuts.
School Budget 2025: $90,000 School Budget 2026: $51,000 Please remember this when Doug Ford and Paul Calandra try to tell you about the historic and unprecedented investments their government has made in education and how greedy teachers are always asking for more. #OntEd
When he came to office his 1st moves were to raise taxes on the poorest among us by killing the carbon rebate without replacing the income people relied on and lowering taxes on the richest by axing the increase in capital gains inclusion rate
Trump's hand-picked Kennedy Centre board says it is unsafe structurally and may need to close immediately. Hey Ontario, sound familiar
Hey Dougie, where's our $25,000,000 you gave these scammers? Bank moves to place company linked to skills fund scandal into receivership archive.ph/DaNpr
Those who lead the charge against the homeless are those who have done the most to create #homelessness.
Canada should be sending fuel and medical supplies to Cuba, not obeying the US genocidal blockade
The increase in #homelessness in Ontario is utterly shocking and the obligatory attempt to predict improvement is simply not credible, given the trade crisis and the intensification of austerity.
#Carney's disgusting gathering of international investors drives home the implications of the class war agenda he is implementing.
Every time you use self-checkout, you’re doing a job a company used to PAY someone to do. Those 10 minutes in line? That’s wages a corporation no longer has to pay. Stop calling it convenience when you’re doing the work for free. Stop helping machines replace us. Smarten up. 👏🏻
Decreased enforcement against speeding motorists and increased policing against transit riders Doug Ford's Ontario
Every day is a good day to call Doug Ford to tell him how you feel about his craven corruption, his secrets and lies, and the terrible things he is doing to Ontario. Premier's Office 416-325-1941 premier@ontario.ca Constituency Office 416-745-2859 doug.fordco@pc.ola.org #PhoneFordFriday
Gloria Steinem died with fewer rights than she had during her lifetime. That fact needs to be front and centre of every media report, every dedication, every discussion of her death.
#DougFord is a horrible human. Premier's Office 416-325-1941 premier@ontario.ca Constituency Office 416-745-2859 doug.fordco@pc.ola.org
The Ontario govt took $60M out of public education and handed it to Staples. Tomorrow, 80K elementary teachers each get $750 of the misappropriated money to buy overpriced classroom supplies at an 🇺🇸 corporation. Please remember this the next time Captain Canada tells you to #BuyCanadian. #OntEd
Anyone falling for Doug Ford's performative nonsense as Captain Canada needs to give their head a shake.
"It is easy to forget it was only last year, during an Ontario election campaign focused on the threat of U.S. tariffs, that Premier Doug Ford let slip he wanted Donald Trump to win the presidency." archive.ph/TiDFZ
