This government’s corruption is so blatant. The very same day Ford removed Greenbelt protections, his staff and developers who stood to profit were celebrating in a private box at a Leafs game. Ontario deserves so much better. Greens will keep fighting to put people over profits.
Inside the Greenbelt scandal’s lost Leafs game
Tuesday will be a sad day for Ontario. Ford's government is taking us backwards, spending millions taking away bike lanes in Toronto when people across Ontario desperately need money for hospitals, housing, schools and infrastructure.
The Ford government is set to remove Etobicoke bike lanes next week. The government confirmed to the Star that work will begin Oct. 13 to remove bike lanes on a stretch of Bloor Street that has been at the heart of the city’s bike lane battle.
According to a sworn statement to the OPP, Doug Ford was using taxpayer funding as leverage to get media coverage. Taxpayer money isn't Ford's personal bank account. He needs to answer to these serious allegations.
Let's get the timeline clear here: 1. Career Colleges Ontario warns the Ford government about suspicious OSAP activity in January 2023. Ford lets private career colleges abuse the system for years.
3. Instead of holding bad actors accountable, Ford punishes all students who rely on OSAP.

It's Ontario Agriculture Week! Ontario farmers grow 200+ crops supporting an agrifood sector that employs 1 in 9 Ontarians, but Ontario is losing 319 acres of farmland every day. Ontario Greens are calling for a Foodbelt to protect it. Tell your MPP to support the Foodbelt: gpo.ca/foodbelt
Ford got caught handing out millions to well-connected insiders and Conservative donors. Now he's adding paperwork to make it look better. But the hidden truth is that the minister's office still picks the winners. Until that changes, expect more of the same.
Doug Ford is all words, no action. He promised $5 billion to protect Ontario businesses from Trump's tariffs. Two years in, he's given $100m to one steel company and only spent $40M across all other businesses.
My thoughts are with the 350 Stelco Hamilton workers who are learning today they might not have a job going forward.
Removing bike lanes is not going to help congestion. This government is spending millions of dollars making roads less safe and removing infrastructure, rather than building for the future.
Time and time again, Ford puts the profits of rich shareholders first, and the people of Ontario last. It's time to put people before profits and invest in publicly funded, publicly delivered healthcare.
Ford can spin and blame the feds all he wants, numbers don't lie. Ontario's staring down a $13B deficit, record unemployment, costs skyrocketing, public services starving.
One of my favourite events of the year! IPM is a celebration of the farmers that are crucial to our food sovereignty. It's also a reminder that we need to do more. That's why we'll keep pushing for the Foodbelt, to permanently protect farmland in Ontario. Find out more: gpo.ca/foodbelt
