A 31-year-old woman with a rare cancer asked Ontario to cover a treatment that could save her life. The government’s own experts said yes. Ford’s ministry said no, then blamed the experts. When Dr. Robin Lennox called that out today, she was thrown out of the legislature.
Ford’s government denied a 31-year-old cancer patient her treatment after the experts said YES. Dr. Robin Lennox called it out and got kicked out of the legislature for it. Sabrina deserves a chance at life.

Instead, wouldn’t you rather just have had a classroom with less that 33 kids? Or a doctor for your kids?? Or an open ER? Or Nurses?…Or… This is what the @fordnation decided OUR Tax dollars are priorities for his @OntarioPCParty. NO ONE voted for this instagram.com/p/DfZ88btEWV1/…

The Health Minister kept saying experts make these decisions. Then the experts said yes to Sabrina, and the answer was still no. Robin got thrown out for asking why. Maybe spend less time blaming the experts and more time approving her treatment.

When Doug Ford attacks teachers, students, and people for being “lazy”, just remember, this is how much he had MPPs sit this year at the legislature. #onpoli

A 31 year old in Ontario was basically sentenced to death by a faceless bureaucrat acting on behalf of Health Minister @SylviaJonesMPP. The cost of her treatment? 1/2000th of the OSAP fraud. Disgusting.
NEW: Ontario’s own health agency recommended funding a 31-year-old cancer patient’s treatment in the U.S. Two clinical experts agreed it was medically necessary. But a senior ministry of health official denied her funding anyway — and Sabrina Apitz-Grossman was never told about those recommendations, new FOI records reveal. thetrillium.ca/news/health/o…

Liberal MPP Tyler Watt said that he is very proud of the students for calling out the government and the colleges and universities minister. “His response has been pathetic. He’s not being honest about this,” said Watt. “He won’t even acknowledge the fact that he let this go on for years before taking action.” Watt said the government is trying to shift the focus to the action they are taking against fraud now, rather than what went on since the police warning in 2023. thetrillium.ca/insider-news/… #onpoli

Education funding has decreased every year (adjusted for inflation) of this @fordnation govt :) Billions of OUR tax dollars to bulldoze Ont Place, get booze into gas stations, fund friends “skills dvlpmnt” at strip clubs, and funnel Billions to pals… instagram.com/p/DfYXn71jpLV/…

Solidarity with students across the province who are walking out of their schools today to protest Doug Ford’s cruel cuts to OSAP and post-secondary funding. We’re calling on the government to reinstate OSAP immediately. Students in Ontario should not be worried about paying the rent because their OSAP funds are frozen.

Sylvia Jones is a liar. #DougFordIsCorrupt
Despite the health minister's repeated assurances that decisions about cancer treatment funding are made by medical professionals, newly released FOI records show the final say in at least one case rested with a senior ministry of health official who refused funding, despite the government’s own health agency and two clinical experts recommending it.

Pierre Poilievre tells the world he couldn't handle Trump? But, the RW Influencers tell us Poilievre would have worked it all out. Would have gotten an amazing deal! This just doesn't add up, I'm shocked!
WATCH: "Nobody controls President Trump. I think it was really silly for Mark Carney to claim he could handle, um, the President." - @PierrePoilievre So, is Poilievre admitting here that he couldn't "handle" Trump and would have given in to all of his demands?

#ONpoli So, when Doug Ford claims to have “trained tens of thousands of new PSWs”… were those even real people???
NEW: Applications to the Better Jobs Ontario program are now being paused as the Ford government looks at “inconsistencies” in that sector as well. That review was launched in the wake of the OSAP concerns at private career colleges globalnews.ca/news/12134730/… #onpoli

Nothing but spin from the Ford Conservatives. Academy of Learning received $219 million in OSAP funding in 2024-25, despite repeated warnings of potential fraud. We now know thousands of OSAP applications were submitted from a single IP address the following year. Today, I asked how much more taxpayer money went to Academy of Learning in 2025-26. The Minister wouldn’t answer. Enough spin. We need answers. #onpoli

I don’t trust them. Period. Release the whole thing, not cherry-picked data that suits their false narrative. #onpoli
NEW: The Ford government now says it is willing to "consider" releasing portions of the KPMG audit into the private career colleges sector, under select conditions. "If there are opportunities to release information from the KPMG audit that do not compromise a potential OPP investigation, an Auditor General investigation or the ministry's efforts to obtain evidence, recover funds and hold bad actors accountable, we will consider doing so." Here's the minister's original comments: #onpoli

Sabrina is 31 and fighting a rare, aggressive cancer. For weeks, Health Minister Sylvia Jones has said doctors decide whether patients like her get treatment outside the country. Now we know two medical experts and Ontario’s own health agency said yes to Sabrina, and it was the Minister’s own ministry that said no. Cancer patients shouldn’t have to fight their own government just to get care. Doug Ford must reverse this decision and give Sabrina a chance at life today.
