Recall another of Ford’s nightmare transit projects?

The Eglinton Crosstown is:

➡️ 4 years late, $4 billion over budget
➡️ Jammed Eglinton traffic for 13 years
➡️ Only 10 km long

The proposed 401 tunnel is 55kms long!

That’s 55kms of nightmare project management.

Why did Ford hide his 401 tunnel study back in 2021?

The study showed:

➡️ A risk of road collapse
➡️Traffic nightmare during construction
➡️ It wouldn’t relieve traffic congestion

🚨60% of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park's Beachfront lands is at risk.

The Ford government is proposing to amend the Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves Act to remove this land from Wasaga Beach Provincial Park.

A big win for Toronto!

A judge has ruled Doug Ford’s attempt to rip out bike lanes unconstitutional.

The courts just confirmed what we already knew: communities deserve safer streets — not dangerous interference.

Ontario plans to sell parts of Wasaga Beach. Environmentalists decry 'awful precedent' | CBC News The Ontario government’s plan to hand parts of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park over to the local town for tourism development could set an “awful precedent” for other provincially owned parks, environmen...

Ford is pillaging Ontario's public assets.

Next target: our Provincial Parks, starting with 645 acres of Wasaga Beach.

This is just another example of the Ford government stepping over Ontarians and handing out public land to private developers.

Over 650,000 Palestinian children under the age of 5 are at risk of dying from starvation due to Israel’s ongoing blockade of humanitarian aid. The Government of Canada must urgently call on Israel to end the starvation, lift the blockade, and allow the immediate and safe release of life-saving aid.

The Ontario Liberals are trading cash for access. How is that even legal? Criminal Code makes it a crime to use influence over cabinet ministers to gain a benefit

At least the Liberals were embarrassed about their cash for access scandal.

Meet the bagman: the Ontario PC fundraising chief and his developer ties The top fundraiser for Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives works for developers, while also raising money from them for the party

Ford PC's fundraising chair ”not only raises party funds from developers, but he personally makes money working with them."

Why is this not a surprise?

The North is burning. Waterbombers are grounded.
