#Ontario #integritycommissioner to #investigate complaint against #DavidPiccini over skills fund

Formal complaints were received by both #Liberal and #NDP of the ON Minister of Labour, Immigration, Training and #SkillsDevelopment in the Government of #Ontario handling of the $2.5 billion SD FUND.

I have phoned the office of Premier #DougFord , my local MPP #DavidPiccini and the Minister of the Environment, #ToddMcCarthy. If they have done nothing wrong, why rush to change the laws just days before they are held to account?

Is this just? Did Ontarians have a place at the table when these decisions were made? We are in a #democracy. Legislation should reflect that. If it doesn't, what are we in?

I would suggest this to my MPP but sadly my MPP is useless, corrupt, callous #LabourMinister #DavidPiccini. People who love this province would all like to see him ejected not just from the legislature but from #Ontario.
