Hurry up Doug. Get off your golden knee pads π Human Rights Nowπππ
Hurry up Doug ford and open the gyms back up and.get a membership to one
He’s one of the worst
Doug Fraud won’t open anything, or if he does, he’ll leave the door open to regional restrictions imposed by local health authorities. That allows him to say “it wasn’t me”.
Lmao truckers are getting it done, oh dougy how does crow taste
It’s based on how our healthcare system is able to manage public health
@Luke Amato is that what they told you after they fired all the nurses or before?
@Luke Amato This is what happens when you cry wolf
@Nosnibor Mailliw cry wolf? Jesus Christ, you really have no clue . You need a psychiatric evaluation
Must be an election coming up this year
They need to hire back everyone they fired given that mandates don’t affect transmission.
Whatever Ford! Don’t talk about it. Do it!!!!
Donβt completely stop =/= doesnβt affect
What kind of nonsense are you spouting…”mandates don’t affect transmission.” That’s crap and you know it. Do some research and report back with the truth.
WITH BACK PAY
@rae0521 were not allowed to do our own research remember
Drop all mandates. I have a job overseas in a country that doesnβt require vaccines or PCR tests, yet I canβt catch a direct flight there from the city I was born in because I am a Canadian citizen lol
I hear you, and have been considering moving abroad, but I can’t even leave this banana republic because of Trudeau. FORD’S COMPLIANCE ISN’T HELPING GETTING FEDERAL RESTRICTIONS LIFTED. You either part of the solution or part of the problem………..
Correction: drop all mandates and restrictions PERMANENTLY.
That capitalized word is extremely important, as without it, the corrupt politicians will just bring back restrictions and mandates whenever they feel like it.
We all want to leave and that is what will happen when this clown show is over π€‘
What country?
Can u drive to USA? Take plane there?
OK we have had protest in Ottawa for 2 weeks now and have not heard of one case of COIVD in Ottawa. If this was so bad Ottawa hospitals should be over run with case ‘s by now. So where is all these so called COIVD case’s?
The reason, Blue sky, is because COVID already passed its winter peak. The active case count in Ontario peaked on Jan. 10th — which was one day earlier than it peaked in Jan. 2021. COVID is seasonal, just like its fellow respiratory viruses.
Ottawa specifically hit its winter active case peak on Jan. 3rd. Here are the figures for the city in weekly installments, according to the Ontario government’s own data:
9,404 = Jan. 3rd
8,780 = Jan. 10th
5,404 = Jan. 17th
3,839 = Jan. 24th
2,752 = Jan. 31st
2,049 = Feb. 7th
The figure reported today (Feb. 10th) is 1,672.
@Primmakin Sofis Exactly. These are annual FLU numbers. Iβm not sure why it OVERWHELMED the system with this when thatβs what theyβre TRAINED to do. And itβs pretty predictable like itβs fellow respiratory viruses. Hospitals have been prepping for over a DECADE for a PANDEMIC and this OVERWHELMED them.? How many hospitals does Ottawa have? 10-14? I know the minimum is 10 but not the max. If they canβt handle that βinfluxβ them we need new LEADERSHIP in HEALTHCARE.
Havenβt heard from Doug in 2 and a half almost 3 weeksβ¦ what type of representative is he?
Rampin up the free pcr test give aways now though
@Ophiuchus13 LOL, ya right……you are delusional.
Murray out of Vancouver – Quadra, Khera out of Brampton west, are both in their comfortable offices, presumably in support of mandates, as their not standing against prime minister’s mandates. In fact, only Joel Lightbound, out of Louis-Hebert, mentioned retracting mandate measures from the other day. Today, Duclos out of Quebec, also supported continuation of mandates.
Another Liberal MP from Quebec, Yves Robillard, has decided to speak up to say he agrees with βeverything that Lightbound saidβ.
No “easing” of restrictions. Drop All Mandates. This ends now.
Not if the Omicron Sub-Variant has anything to say about it. I think we’ll have to accept Lockdowns and Restrictions every fall and winter for the rest of the decade.
If the emergency order gets renewed on the 23rd, I can only imagine thereβs going to be problems.
@Sean’s Model Builds no.
Not going to happen.
@Steve B What kind of problems?
@R C That’s what we all thought last summer, before Delta.
just drop the mandates and passports…now and bring peace. Stop telling the doctors what to say and threaten their jobs. That is inexcusable !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s just that simple.. π€·ββοΈ
The crowd in Ottawa and elsewhere is not filling up hospital beds or dying on the street. What can be more telling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not really. Active cases in Ontario peaked on Jan. 10th and have dropped steadily since then. (That peak date, incidentally, was one day earlier than the January 2021 peak. COVID is seasonal, just like other respiratory viruses.)
@Primmakin Sofis then why were we shut down all summer
@Primmakin Sofis it is seasonal and it keeps getting weaker and weaker. Hopefully it becomes so weak that itβs eventually a non issue completely.
Really? Seasonal? I don’t know about you but I’ve been on lockdown or close to it 4 times now once in March to April 2020 then again almost the following November 2020, then in may and June 2021 then in January 2022 so please explain how that’s seasonal? That covers 4 seasons lol
Apparently, medical science depends on geographic region, and the amount of parked vehicles on the streets π
Truckers have accomplished what our circus politicians could not in two years
@Gordy That is why all these mandates make no sense.
@Gordy those who didn’t get jabbed accept that their outcome may be worse. Ontario hospital average occupancy was 96% with 28 hospitals actually over 100% 2018-2019. We had a problem before and still do now. If they spent the same amount of effort improving the system as they did promoting vaccines and vilifying the unvaccinated we would not have the problems we have today.
@Julio Gonzo Unfortunately they still show up at the hospital so we still have to delay other procedures to treat them.
@Gordyremember when they said you wouldn’t get it? And then you could. Wake up and realize you’ve been coned.
They say the symptoms “may” be less
Keep going truckers! The politicians can’t be trusted. Hold the line and do not compromise. End ALL mandates!
Open up for Christ’s sake…we had enough of these bought and paid for doctors with foreign accents .
The foreign accents……ππ
Absolutely gutless. He needs to go. Drop the mandates NOW.
Ford missed a great opportunity to advance his own political career , and the reputation of his party.
He has appeared to be a small L liberal , with no stomach for confrontation. He should be replaced.
Replaced with who? Doug Fraud is a corrupt, spineless coward, but Christine Liesalott is a corrupt, treacherous snake.
The entire Conservative party in Ontario needs to be destroyed the way the Progressive Conservatives federally were destroyed in 1993.
Just do it Doug Ford,! You are the Premier of Ontario, stand up for your own constituents and do what’s right for them. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH the whole world is stating. Be on the Right Side of History.
Heβs a corrupt politician. Once corrupt they never go backβ¦. The cabal has him cornered and he has to do what heβs told. The government works like the mafia. Do your researchesβ¦
I love how these politicians make it look like it was their idea and how theyβre moving on this by their own inspiration
Whatever it takes, we know the truth. Pat pat, yes we know you knew all along, pat pat
It’s really comical at this point.
ty Truckers
Typical
Exactly my thoughts, at least theyβre making progress lol
They need to hire back everyone they fired given that mandates don’t affect transmission.
Apparently, medical science depends on geographic region, and the amount of parked vehicles on the streets π
Truckers have accomplished what our circus politicians could not in two years
This has to end otherwise Iβm seriously considering leaving and never coming back to this country.
Used to be that our freedoms and decent government were reasons yo live here, no longer the case and it’s not like the weather is going to keep anybody here. I’m considering the same thing seriously.
Im born of indigenous blood line and i want out also.
Letβs do it βDoug Fordβ. Your our leader. Take on what Justin wonβt π€π₯°π₯³
