Do you think Ford needs a 28.9M jet? (& needs jets at Toronto Isl airport?)

Are you okay with him hiding embarrassing, or worse, info by changing FOI rules?

Are you okay with Ford appointing vs you electing regional chairs? Ford criticizing judges?

If not, call Ford 416 325-1941 (I just did).

At what point do his caucus colleagues take the keyboard -- and the social media accounts -- away from him?

#RISEUP We must be what they fear. The #USA is an evil Empire of corporate interests. There is no republic, no great leader coming to our rescue. Just regional managers as far as the eye can see.

Ford government to bypass public hearings on freedom-of-information clampdown TORONTO - Ontario Premier Doug Ford's government is planning to skip public hearings to pass its omnibus budget bill that contains a retroactive clampdown on access to his cellphone records.

👀 While everybody was paying attention to the $29-million jet yesterday, the provincial government also made a procedural move to skip public hearings on their omnibus bill -- the one that changes freedom of information, conservation authorities, etc. www.thestar.com/news/ontario...

New NDP Leader Avi Lewis holds news conference in Ottawa YouTube video by CBC News

Watching #CBCPNP right now and they keep alluding to Avi Lewis' presser from earlier today. They have really built this up so I figured I'd take a look at it to see what he said that appeared to offend. First thing I notice is McPherson looks like a hostage. #CDNpoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-gp...
