Transit delays. Hospital pressures. The cost of the Premier’s Office. When billions in public dollars are on the line, ministers should be able to explain where the money is going and what Ontarians are getting for it. #onpoli

Les retards dans les transports en commun. Les pressions exercées sur les hôpitaux. Le coût du bureau du premier ministre. Lorsque des milliards de dollars des contribuables sont en jeu, les ministres devraient être en mesure d’expliquer où va cet argent et ce que les Ontariens en retirent. #onpoli

Housing targets. Gambling harms. Emergency funding. Our MPPs asked ministers to explain the numbers — and whether the government’s plans actually match the problems Ontarians are facing. #onpoli

Le logement, les effets néfastes du jeu, le financement d’urgence. Nos députés provinciaux ont demandé aux ministres d’expliquer ces chiffres — et de préciser si les plans du gouvernement répondent réellement aux problèmes auxquels font face les Ontariens. #onpoli

ICYMI: our MPPs have been pressing ministers on the decisions that affect people every day — from vulnerable youth and emergency preparedness to student affordability and northern highway safety. These are the questions Ontarians deserve answers to. #onpoli

Au cas où vous l’auriez manqué : nos députés provinciaux ont interrogé les ministres sur les décisions qui touchent la vie quotidienne des gens — qu’il s’agisse des jeunes vulnérables, de la préparation aux situations d’urgence, de l’accessibilité financière des études ou de la sécurité routière dans le Nord. Ce sont là des questions auxquelles les Ontariens méritent des réponses. #onpoli

Stan Cho billed taxpayers $16,000 for hotel rooms seven subway stops from home. He got caught. He paid it back. Three months later, Doug Ford paid him back, with a $22,500 raise. #onpoli

Doug Ford is already refusing to swear in the trustees who will be elected next Monday at eight school boards across Ontario. People should be able to vote knowing the representatives they choose will actually be allowed to serve. They shouldn’t be trying to run everything from downtown Toronto. #onpoli @JohnFraserOS

Doug Ford refuse déjà de faire prêter serment aux conseillers scolaires qui seront élus lundi prochain au sein de huit conseils scolaires de l'Ontario. Les citoyens devraient pouvoir voter en sachant que les représentants qu'ils choisissent pourront réellement exercer leurs fonctions. Ils ne devraient pas essayer de tout diriger depuis le centre-ville de Toronto. #onpoli

NEW: An Ontario cancer patient is taking the Ford government to court for refusing to fund a U.S. treatment that could save her life. "People are just being told to die." The government pointed to cost savings as one of the reasons it is limiting which patients can receive funding for out-of-country treatments. Story: thetrillium.ca/news/health/p…

Sabrina deserves the chance to keep living the life she’s worked so hard to build. She deserves to turn 32, 33, 34… To pursue the career she imagined for herself. To spend more time with the people she loves. To have every possible chance at more years ahead. A treatment option is available to her in the U.S. Right now, Health Minister Sylvia Jones is standing in the way of provincial funding that could help Sabrina access it. This is Sabrina’s life. She deserves every possible chance to keep fighting. Minister Jones, help give Sabrina that chance. #onpoli

Meet Sabrina Apitz-Grossman, a law school graduate with aspirations of working for the United Nations. At 28, Sabrina was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, a rare and particularly aggressive form of soft-tissue cancer. Her only hope is a specific therapy, which will cost her $650,000 USD unless the provincial government accepts that out-of-province treatment is necessary. Despite the existence of Ontario’s Out-of-Country Prior Approval Program which was made to help fund these kinds of treatments for those in great need, Minister of Health Sylvia Jones is still denying her. Sabrina has a chance. @SylviaJonesMPP, are you paying attention?

We’re saddened to learn of the passing of Mac Bain, a longtime public servant and advocate for Northern Ontario. From his years serving North Bay to his work as Executive Director of FONOM, Mac dedicated decades to strengthening municipalities and making sure Northern communities had a strong voice. Mac was also a familiar and valued presence to many Ontario Liberals over the years. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, colleagues, and everyone across Northern Ontario who knew and worked with him.

Wishing Hindu communities across Ontario a joyful final day of Navratri. As nine nights of prayer, reflection, music, dance, and celebration come to a close, we honour the traditions and communities that make this festival so meaningful. May this final day bring peace, strength, happiness, and time with loved ones — and may the spirit of Navratri carry forward into the year ahead. Happy Navratri!

Imaginez que vous vous rendiez dans un bureau de ServiceOntario pour obtenir de l’aide… et que vous constatiez que personne ne peut vous accueillir en français, l’une des deux langues officielles du Canada. Douze agences ServiceOntario n’ont pas fourni de services en français. C’est inacceptable. On a demandé aux Franco-Ontariens de revenir un autre jour, de communiquer par gestes ou de lire à haute voix des informations privées et confidentielles au guichet. @fordnation doit remédier à cette situation. Le français est un droit, pas une faveur. // Imagine walking into a ServiceOntario for help… only to find that no one can serve you in French, one of Canada’s two official languages. 12 ServiceOntario offices failed to provide French services. That’s unacceptable. Franco-Ontarians were asked to come back another day, communicate through gestures, or read private and confidential information aloud at the counter. @fordnation must fix this. French is a right, not a favour. #onpoli

Les libéraux de l’Ontario exigent que le gouvernement de Doug Ford comble les graves lacunes en matière de services en français au sein de ServiceOntario. Les francophones devraient pouvoir accéder aux services auxquels ils ont légalement droit sans qu’on leur demande de revenir un autre jour ou de devoir composer avec le manque de personnel bilingue. Après près de huit ans au pouvoir, le gouvernement Ford doit remédier aux problèmes de dotation en personnel, faire respecter les règles et mettre en œuvre les recommandations du commissaire. #onpoli

Ontario Liberals are demanding Doug Ford’s government fix serious gaps in French-language services at ServiceOntario. Francophones should be able to access the services they’re legally entitled to without being told to come back another day or navigate around missing bilingual staff. After nearly 8 years in office, Ford’s government needs to fix the staffing, enforce the rules, and implement the Commissioner’s recommendations. #onpoli
