As always
A giant waste of time
It’s more entertaining to see how many times they can repeat the same thing with different wording
Is this just a show? How can they vote on items that require unanimous consent with so few MPPs sitting? Where are the others? Voting online? I don’t hear them.
“We are listening to the experts blah blah blah.” Please just address the substance of the matter – why isn’t the Ford government providing sick paid leave and properly defining “essential” work?
why aren’t WE opening up the nation? is the question
ALL work IS essential comrade
Because his big donor supporters are big business owners, developers, PC voters. They promise to boost him for re-election next year, so long as he appeases their self interests. Profit/self interest over Ontarians lives. He did more in wave 1 than in 3, when its needed now the most.
Shall the House sit past 6pm? “No”
Yup lmfao
My friends…………We are allf……………………ked.
We been f**ked since his been in office, I don’t know how the hell he got there…I mean seriously!!!
jesus christ they both just said the same thing in different ways for 21 minutes. This job seems easy
Except when you decide to create a police state. That happens in a private cabinet meeting with a Solicitor General who has a diploma in radio.
THE CAVE OF ROBBERS
FORD IS NOT HANDLING THIS CRISIS VERY WELL….VOTE HIM OUT NEXT ELECTION.
WHAT ABOUT THE TREACHER? MOST OF THEM ARE UNDER 50. THEY NEED PROTECTION.
NO FORD IS UP AT HIS COTTAGE DRINKING HIS DOLLAR BEERS.
@Ryan Haynes “Ford re iterated power the police already have”
Police do not have any power to detain and interrogate an innocent person for being out-of-residence. Being out of your home in Canada is never deemed “reasonable suspicion” either legally or by any other busybody notion.
” the federal government has far more power then the provincial ”
Yeah, the Constitution.
“Doug’s a conservative so no surprise we hate on him”
Doug Ford gave the job of Solicitor General to someone who has a diploma in radio and whose resume is assistant to an ex-Harris gang member. She tried to create a state so bad every municipal police force refused the order. Why are you defending and pretending?
@Nature and Physics at what point did Doug say they can detain you ? They can question you and always have Been able to
@Ryan Haynes “at what point did Doug say they can detain you ”
You really weren’t listening at 4 PM on Friday, April 16, were you. The Solicitor General Sylvia Jones said literally exactly what I described. Detainment and interrogation for being outside your home. You really are that ignorant.
“They can question you and always have Been able to”
No. You’re just ignorant. Toronto municipal by-law does not permit police to detain and interrogate someone simply for being outside, nor for the purpose of collecting name and address just to collect that info. The Constitution and Charter of Rights and Freedoms also protect against police harassment of citizenry. You DO know that municipal police forces in Ontario refused outright to comply with Jones’ order, yes?
Why are you defending this trash?
@Nature and Physics he’s probably a conservative who, like conservatives everywhere, is having a hard time facing up to the mountain of evidence that conservatism is a failed governing ideology.
As for Ford himself, it boggles the mind that anyone could look at him and think he’s competent to run a daycare centre, let alone a province.
@Uday Joshi Ford was doing well there for a time, but it seems narcissism won out. I’m shocked to learn Ontario’s Solicitor General has no background in law or anything to with civics. Her orders to police were simply out of nanny-state busybodyism.
What is it they are trying to ‘conserve’?
That medical minister seems like a joke.
Silly! Grow up!
Thank you Horvath, for speaking up!
THE ECONOMY WILL RECOVER. DEATH IS FOREVER.
Lol, listening to advice and interpretation must be off. I watched a statement from the advisory committee that openly state that these weren’t their recommendations.
When a PC MPP or their loved one gets covid, severe disease, or dies, thats when they may change course.
Is it just me, or was Christine Elliott just repeating herself but with diff wording every time Andrea Horwath was proving the Ford gov’t wrong…?
Every. Single. Time. 😠 🤬
Can see her getting irate and loud too.
Ford’s “Hold my beer” moment
Ah yes, The Game of Clowns is on.
Tents… have u seen University ave. Tents all over the city
All politicians shall receive the basic cerb payment as their sole income from here on.
Our public schools shall audit all branches of public government.
“You don’t listen the suggestions from science table”
“We listen the suggestions from science table”
On repeat for 21 mins
