🚨 BREAKING 🚨
Ford's Gravy Plane
Ford spent $28.9M taxpayer dollars to buy a jet for his private use.
Wondering why he wants jets at Billy Bishop Airport?
It'll cost at least another $1 billion tax dollars so Ford can land his jet in downtown Toronto.

Ford's $28.9 million dollar Gravy Plane won't put out Northern wildfires.
Every summer, aging water bombers are grounded in Northern Ontario—because we won’t pay pilots properly. Meanwhile, Ford buys a private jet for himself with tax dollars.
What are this government's priorities?

The Ford government's Bill 5 is being challenged at the Ontario Superior Court.
The Special Economic Zones Act (SEZA) was passed last spring as part of the controversial Bill 5, which also weakened the province’s ecological and archaeological protections, sparking protests across the province.
Today at Committee, we learned that the Council-approved Benton & Frederick St. Reconstruction project through Downtown Kitchener will no longer include bike lanes, because of the Province's Bill 60. The repaving will happen in a way to allow for future installation when allowed.
“If records about gov't business can be shielded from scrutiny simply because they sit in a minister's office, public accountability is eviscerated.”
Ontario’s Privacy Comm. is warning about Ford’s plan to weaken access to information.
What is Ford trying to hide?

Ford muzzles students.
Graduates who are priced out of college or university because of OSAP cuts will not be able to mention OSAP at their graduations.
Ford's Minister of Education threatens Boards where students make any political statements at their graduations.

Democracy or dictatorship?
T̶r̶u̶m̶p̶, I mean Ford is:
▶️Gutting Freedom of Information so he can defy order to release his phone records
▶️Applying Bill 5 so he can break any law at Billy Bishop Airport
▶️Now, will appoint 8 Regional Chairs with powers to override Council

yongeTOmorrow Welcome! yongeTOmorrow Public Event #1 April 21, 2026
Project Overview Yonge Street is an iconic destination in the heart of downtown Toronto. The yongeTOmorrow project will increase pedestrian space and improve the way people move through and experience Yonge Street. The project is now in the design stage and includes: Road Design and Reconstruction Watermain Replacement Streetscape Enhancements Operational Plan map of yonge between college and queen
Road Design: Alignment Cross-Sections • Roadway: two lanes totaling 6.6 metres wide • Furnishing and Planting Zone: ~2.7 metres wide • Pedestrian Clearway: ~4.0 metre pedestrian clearway • Cycle Track: between College Street and Gerrard Street • Addition of signalized pedestrian crossing between McGill Street and College Park
Streetscaping: Design Segments The Green Gateway, Innovation, and Performance/Retail Segments can be enhanced by adding streetscaping features such as street furniture, public art, and greenery, examples below: Green Gateway By adding more trees create green corridors that link existing park spaces throughout the area. This provides comfortable places for people to gather and spend time along this busy, high-density roadway. Innovation Improved connections between Yonge Street and TMU provide opportunities for collaboration and programming. Performance / Retail Yonge Street is strengthened as a cultural hub, with flexible spaces for public art and small performances that can adapt to events and bring people together.
Concerning new documents out for YongeTOmorrow that seems much less focused on pedestrianization.
The project originally envisioned having portions of Yonge between College and Queen be at least partially pedestrianized.

Looks like the OntarioNDP's Northern Highway Safety Tour got the government's attention!
We are very happy to see the government finally acknowledge the desperate need to improve the safety of our northern highways.
You lose everything, and they keep tax-free private jets & yachts ✈️
🚨 BREAKING: Doug Ford just gutted the law that allows Ontarians to request information about his government's policies
These Freedom of Information requests helped uncover the Greenbelt scandal
The ability to request information is why the Ford gov't is under RCMP investigation right now.

None of Ford's claims about the new Science Centre are true.
Claim: estimated cost of new Science Centre is $322 million
Reality: current estimate is $750 million

Behind closed doors, the Ford government weakened Canadian content rules — and Thunder Bay workers are paying the price.

Ford to students:
“it's not a God-given right to take taxpayers’ money,” ...
Unless you are my family dentist, you get $2M;
or a friend who owns a strip club, i'll give you $10M;
or you hire my campaign manager as a lobbyist, you'll get $100M.

I’m thrilled that Conservative MPP Lisa Thompson is opposed to the amalgamation of the Huron and Superior conservation authorities because it’s a project that ignores the science and ignores geographic reality.

15 years, $7.7 billion over budget, and devastating closures to over 300 small businesses.
That is the history of this public-private partnership—otherwise known as a P3 project.

UK Ministry of Defense announcement on Twitter about a $1.5B "partnership" with Palantir.
Toronto Star article about the federal government doing a deal with Cohere AI.
Article about Cohere: Cohere is quietly working with Palantir to deploy its AI models
Draw your own conclusions, but the president of Palantir Canada sits on Carney's council for Canada/US relations.
And the feds also did a deal with Palantir, via a homegrown proxy.
Building transit in Ontario works.
Thunder Bay workers will assemble Toronto’s new subway cars—with 55% Canadian content and billions invested right here.
This is what Canadian workers need amidst a shaky global economy: domestic projects, good union jobs, and local supply chains.

Standing in the freezing cold at the Shuniah Inspection Station — closed again.
We are risking their lives on northern highways while the Ford government looks the other way. Enough is enough.
This station needs to be open — regularly, at least 12 hours a day.

Screenshot of a tweet from Evan Solomon. It has two photos of him meeting with the Israeli Ambassador to Canada with the caption: This morning, I met with Israel’s Ambassador to Canada as part of ongoing engagement on technology, AI, and economic development. Dialogue matters, particularly in complex times. / Ce matin, j'ai rencontré l'ambassadeur d'Israël au Canada dans le cadre d'un engagement continu en matière de technologie, d'intelligence artificielle et de développement économique. Le dialogue est important, en particulier dans les périodes complexes.
This post has been on my mind for a few days now, so I’m going to say something about it. 🧵
To build housing, we need a government that:
▶️ builds not-for-profit housing
▶️ that leverages the value of public land to reduce costs
▶️ that partners with existing Co-ops to expand
ontariondp.ca/homes-ontario
Doug Ford’s housing plan:
▶️ Paving the Greenbelt
▶️ MZO's to insiders
▶️ Strong Mayor powers
▶️ Attacking Conservation Authorities
Great for making Ford's friends rich, but doesn't build housing.
Two article screenshots side by side. The first: Vancouver tech firm Hootsuite provides services to US Homeland Security. The second: 'Fantastic news': Ford welcomes ICE plan to order Ontario armoured vehicles.
1/ As the people of Minneapolis rise up against ICE, it's painful and shameful that Canadian companies are selling armoured vehicles to Trump's masked militia and providing tech support to the dept of Homeland Security.
This is an artifact.
Doug Ford before he became Ontario premier, opposite Avi Lewis before he became leader of the NDP (probably), with Evan Solomon anchoring, before he became a federal cabinet minister.
