If Doug Ford gets a 2nd term, remember it all began with @Kathleen_Wynne staring defeat in the face & out of pure @ontario_liberal self-interest telling voters NOT to vote for the only progressive alternative to Cons: i.e. @OntarioNDP. #onpoli #LiberalTorySameOldStory
Defeatism among Ontario Liberals is telling

"A misguided plan to implement a ‘team nursing’ model and no critical care training in the ICUs threatens their patients... ...Team nursing in the ICU is dangerous. It was tried — in a failed attempt to save money — and discarded decades ago." yorkregion.com/opinion-story…
.@OntarioNurses enter conciliation w/ @AlgomaHealth seeking a new contract that respects their value. "ONA members always prefer to reach a negotiated agreement. We encourage this employer not to force nurses to strike." #onpoli #canlab bit.ly/3tHUg1t

So happy to have a @clarehacksel sign! It's time for a @NDP federal gov't w/ PM @theJagmeetSingh that will deliver on popular progressive campaign promises – instead of a tarsands pipeline-buying Liberal gov't that never seems to get around to pharmacare, childcare, etc. #elxn44

Nurses and other frontline healthcare heroes are being told by @fordnation that they don't deserve a fair contract for wages and benefits. They risk their lives and their health for us. You don't treat heroes this way. My statement. @ontarionurses @RNAO youtube.com/watch?v=-hN7tBUP…

It is time that governments honour their agreements, and that #LandDefenders are respected. Today, I was glad to stand in solidarity with the Land Defenders calling for fair, accountable negotiations and decisions about this land. @1492LBL #PowerOfMany #OnLab

Women bore the brunt of this pandemic and many are struggling to get back to work without adequate child care. We are at risk of moving backwards if we don't focus on women's participation in the workforce. #DoneWaiting #ForwardTogether #canlab #cdnpoli #ThroneSpeech
