Watch @samoosterhoff, a top Doug Ford MPP outside the legislature "pledging" to end abortion. Ford made this Conservative responsible for overseeing public schools. Why is Doug Ford letting him run under the Conservative banner? Where does Ford stand on a woman's right to choose?

M. Mulroney a tentĂ© de dĂ©fendre sa fille Caroline qui a complĂštement laissĂ© tomber les Franco-Ontariens. Il a fait de grandes choses pour le Canada, mais ses propos appartiennent Ă une autre Ă©poque et nâont pas leur place dans une sociĂ©tĂ© respectueuse et Ă©galitaire. #cdnpoli

It was âŠ@C_Mulroneyâ©âs original announcement to cancel this French language university that provoked âŠ@ASimardLâ© to quit the âŠ@OntarioPCPartyâ© caucus and eventually join the âŠ@OntLiberalâ© caucus. #uof

This is false. I wasnât travelling and had to pay $40 for the rapid test at my local Shoppers Drug Mart here in Embrun. #onpoli
Health Minister Christine Elliott tells the legislature the only reason people need to pay $40 for a rapid test if theyâre travelling - otherwise they can go get one at a pharmacy free of charge.
(Has this been peopleâs experience with rapid testing in Ontario??) #onpoli

Not well.
I'm not sure how the suggestion to eliminate French will go over, especially after former PC MPP @ASimardL joined the Ontario Liberals over the Ford government's handling of French-language issues.

I was once referred to as âClimate Barbieâs sisterâ and I took it as the most wonderful compliment. @cathmckenna - One of the smartest, strongest, and most passionate women in Canadian politics. Iâll take it. Haters gonna hate.
Anytime I tweet support/congrats for @cathmckenna or any other successful woman Iâm reminded this site has a bottomless pit of anonymous accounts that exist to spread lies/hate about them. Somebodyâs paying for these đ farms, and itâs past time @twitter did something about it.

Restaurants now depend on delivery services to survive. Some of these services are charging commission fees of up to 30%. Je demande au gouvernement de mettre un cap de 15 % sur les frais de commission facturés par ces services, comme d'autres juridictions ont déjà fait. #onpoli

Also a constituent. She has been invisible and completely useless as a representative since she took a hissy fit and left the PC party. She should have stepped down as she really has no place being in that position.
