Not only do Ford's Conservatives refuse to build affordable housing, they veto Toronto's efforts to build when developers lobby them. Ford Conservatives scrapped 5,000 units of affordable housing requirements after pushback from three REITs. #onpoli thestar.com/real-estate/fo… via

This is unbelievable. The government is silencing debate and skipping public hearings to push through their plan to politicize Ontario’s courts. First Bill 5. Now this. How far are they willing to go?

🚨 Doug Ford’s Bill 5 is an assault on democracy, Treaty rights and the environment in Ontario. Environmental defenders, civil liberties advocates, & Indigenous leaders are linking arms to stop Bill 5 before it wipes out the Endangered Species Act and take away our rights.

MPP Sandy Shaw: "I have never received in such a short time so many emails with people opposed to Bill 5 and wanting to know in what way they can engage with this government to make clear that what is happening here is an affront to their sense of decency and to their sense of

We're filibustering tonight to fight against Bill 5. Bill 5 is a dangerous power grab that creates special economic zones where municipal and provincial laws don't apply. This is the loss of our democracy. The Ontario NDP is committed to fighting back. #ONpoli

We won! Our filibuster efforts derailed Ford’s power grab. We’ve pushed the committee process into next week. We won’t let the Conservatives off the hook for this undemocratic piece of legislation. #ONpoli

This is democracy in action—filibustering into the early hours of the morning. Ford's Conservatives are trying to steamroll Bill 5 which allows for special economic zones that are exempt from municipal and provincial laws. The Ontario NDP is demanding that the government rip up

Housing bill after housing bill, yet the Ford government has the 2nd worst home building record in the country. The Ontario NDP are tabling housing solutions that are proven to work. #ONpoli

BREAKING: Conservatives are stopping the NDP's ability to filibuster Bill 5, the bill that allows the government to override all municipal and provincial laws. Instead, they're ramming it through. The final vote on the bill is expected on Wednesday or Thursday 11:30AM. Sign

$40 million in Conservative ads, a filibuster on Bill 5, and sweeping powers to privatize our education system. Let's recap another week in Ontario politics. ⬇️ #ONpoli

Education can’t wait. Better schools lead to stronger communities. As New Democrats, and as the Official Opposition, we’ll fight every single day—for our kids, for their future, and for the educators who help them get there.

One of Ford’s top five “Special Economic Zones” — where laws don’t apply? His fantasy tunnel under the 401. This isn’t about growing our economy. It’s about giving himself and his insiders unchecked power. Another sign of Trump-style politics.
