All children’s hospitals in #Ontario-Sick Kids Hospital, McMaster Children’s Hospital as well as Can. Paedriatric Society, and others sign open letter to Premier Ford calling for immediate reopening of schools. ‘We are witnessing a crisis in children’s mental health.’ #COVID19ON

@fordnation: "it's very, very simple". I've never felt safer. Thanks Doug and @loblawco 👍

Actions speak louder than words, @fordnation.
You said you understood the need for paid sick leave. Four days later your caucus voted against it.
This is unforgivable. #onpoli

Lots of teeth bashing happening in The Post’s editorial offices.
Boys we get it.

You know what IS selfish? The half century of waiting.

@COVIDSciOntario prepared a lay summary to help patients understand this condition and what to look out for. Its a living guidance document, and will be updated again soon: covid19-sciencetable.ca/scie…
For the love of... @fordnation @celliottability @OntarioPCParty ppl have died because they/others could not afford to lose their pay/jobs and stay home. Your #privilege and desperation for power prevents you from understanding this, these deaths are on you #PaidSickDaysSaveLives
We have put paid sick days to a vote 23 times in the Ontario legislature.
And 23 times Doug Ford’s government has voted against it.
No more delays. No more voting against it.
Paid sick days now.

But it's really "very simple" isn't it @fordnation @celliottability?
The whole of the Ontario booking system is hilariously incompetent, though, and promotes inequity in many ways. Fun checking each pharmacy individually! Just send more vaccines to real hotspots, man. thestar.com/opinion/star-col…
"Economies recover. The dead do not". You are responsible for this #COVID19Ontario emergency: @TBayMOH @fordnation @celliottability. Is this really how you want to be remembered?

No one should be surprised that @fordnation continues to put corporate and business interests (donors) before human ones (voters). Absolutely no one. #FordMustResign #FordfailedOntario
#UPDATE: The Premier's office has issued a statement regarding paid sick leave, saying "... our government will not impose any additional burden on the backs of Ontario businesses that have been ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic."

***Doug Ford's announcement is NOT paid sick days!*** Paid sick days come through legislation requiring employers to provide days where a worker can be off sick, and get paid. Ford is "working on" sick pay, which is something you would have to apply for and wait for. #onpoli

Do not forget - we HAD legislated paid sick days - advocates and communities fought very hard to get legislation passed under @Kathleen_Wynne - and Ford *immediately* repealed them in 2018. He is putting politics before people's lives. #onpoli #covid19
How @fordnation feels or is perceived to feel is irrelevant. What he does is what matters. Ford continues to NOT DO what is required and recommended by real experts to save us from this #COVID19Ontario emergency. #PaidSickDays and #vaccinateessentialworkers. It's simple, folks.

Ontario Government: We’ve taken "extreme" measures to control spread! We’re listening to doctors and are not responsible for the 3rd wave!
Reality: The government followed none of the recommendations of their own Science Table.
Why are we STILL being gaslighted?

Nice work @cityoftoronto @JohnTory ! 🤦🏼♀️
Torontonians will be dealing with dirtier roads this spring after the city awarded a street-sweeping contract to a private company that didn’t have the vehicles to complete the work. bit.ly/3ndnsKA
