#dougfordiscorrupt — Public Fediverse posts

I've inquired of my MPP, and apparently Ontario can cancel the Therme Spa deal, with a penalty*, if they do it before Therme takes possession.

There is still time! I know, you've signed umpteen letters, as have I.

This one is still important: it tells Ford we're still paying attention, and gives our progressive reps ammo for making their case.

Re: Scathing AG Report on Ontario Place Redevelopment:

Who needs an elected mayor and city council, when the Premier gets to dictate city spending?

Removing bike lanes? 🤦‍♀️

"There’s fierce competition in the unofficial race for Canada’s most dangerous premier, with AB's Danielle Smith deliberately destabilizing her province’s health-care system and SK's Scott Moe literally breaking the law so he can thumb his considerable nose at the carbon tax. But with the most recent demonstration of his own unique brand of politics, Ontario’s Doug Ford just snuck back into the lead … "

Including: exemption from environmental assessment? 😤🖕

Oh, today I saw a post that made perfect sense:

Ford is using the Science Centre as a pretext for building the massive, publicly-funded waterfront Therme Spa parking facility.

Uh-huh. Yep. 😤
