Bonnie Crombie remains the best person to lead the Ontario Liberals. I know the precedents, but why should we be bound by a mistake one man made man 40 years ago? An increased majority of Ontario Liberals chose Bonnie. Respect their votes. Bonnie Crombie can count on my continued support. #onpoli

@wilnerness.bsky.social just read your article about league alignment. I find it hard to believe that many Toronto fans would rather see the Twins and Guardians over the Yankees and Red Sox. Seems like a horrible idea to me.

Trump’s 25% tariffs on Canada are illegal, indefensible and unjustified. I’m glad Canadian politicians are fighting back. As I said before the election, I’ll support Ford‘s strong response. The fight for Ontario‘s economy and Canadian sovereignty were never partisan. #onpoli #teamCanada #teamOntario

According to the Queen’s Park Observer, at the B’nai Brith debate for York Centre, PC Solicitor General Michael Kerzner “suggested [bubble-zone] legislation is unenforceable and unconstitutional, and that real change needs to come from Ottawa and the Criminal Code”. #onelxn #onpoli #BubbleZone

Doug Ford overheard saying he was happy Donald Trump became president — ‘then the guy pulled out the knife’
PC leader Doug Ford, who last week triggered the Feb. 27 Ontario vote 15 months early, emphasized he is still able to do the job during the election campaign.

Doug Ford wastes our tax dollars like he’s a rich kid spending his parents’ money. We need to send him a message that we will not put up with his childish antics. Instead of giving $612 million to the big beer distributors, he should be spending it on healthcare and education. #onpoli #OnElxn

Today I enjoyed the Richmond Hill Board of Trade Power Hour where the business community asked questions of local politicians. As a member of the Government Affairs Committee, I helped prepare the questions that focused on taxes, housing and healthcare. The event was well run and a success! #onpoli

We enjoyed knocking on doors today. Once again, very few fans of Doug Ford. Also, not one person thought a provincial election at this time makes any sense at all. Ford is clearly focused more on his personal interests than the public good. #onpoli

Many federal Liberals put lots of work into rebuilding after 2011. Trudeau brought the Party from 3rd to 1st, but the Liberal Party was not dead in 2013. Another leader, such as Marc Garneau, could have brought Liberals back to official opposition and perhaps a minority government in 2015. #cdnpoli

The more cynical of Doug Ford’s advisors are now telling him to call an election that ends before March 24, half way through his mandate. That would leave Ontario with two caretaker governments while Trump begins his second presidency. Hopefully Ford has more principle than that. #onpoli

How would it work procedurally if Trudeau resigns and the new Liberal leader is not in caucus? Is it clear that the Governor General would appoint that person as Prime Minister? Would that person risk running in a byelection? #cdnpoli

This shows leadership. It would be natural for the Ontario Liberals to oppose for the sake of opposition. Instead, Bonnie Crombie is supporting Ford’s response to Trump and offering to work with him. #onpoli #Aurora #OakRidges #RichmondHill toronto.citynews.ca/2024/12/20/b...
