Have we seen a map of what part of the island they are expropriating?

Not yet and from what I've read I don't think an accurate map of what exactly they're expropriating even exists yet. The Trillium has a new article published that includes this;
“The island beaches, Hanlan’s Point, Centreville and the Island School are now all at risk,” [MPP Chris Glover] said in a press release.

However, a spokesperson for Sarkaria dispelled that notion and said the PINs don’t necessarily mean the province will take all the land where it’s now staking claim.

“We will work with the city to divide the relevant PINs to narrow the land required to only what’s needed as quickly as possible," the spokesperson said.

Seems like a good opportunity for Chow to trade the airport land and adjacent mainland side in order to save the rest of the island parkland.

Huh?

Are of the deal style? What does the city get out of this?

To the federal government?

The city gets to keep the rest of the island instead of the province taking it all.

Nice city... Shame if something bad were to happen to it?

DId you have the same gripe when the city exchanged supporting Ontario Place redevelopment for uploading the Gardiner?

That is actually an exchange. Saying the City should be happy that the province doesn't confiscate all of the islands is the wrong take.

The 'Reserved Powers of the Crown' are rarely exercised and mostly on the advice of the Executive (first minister and Cabinet). Simply stated, we get the government we voted for unless the system is at risk of being constitutionally undermined. Overthrowing a popularly elected government isn't one of those times. Besides, I'm not aware of a specific Crown authority to remove a first minister who a violated a law.

Regardless, the way I understand it, the FOI request resulted in a court ruling adverse to the government on the law as it existed. That law has been since changed. As for the nurse practitioner thing, again, the way I understand it, the government missed a federally imposed date, but any sanctions don't come into effect until 2027. I assume the sanction would be a clawback of federal health transfers.

Uh, Monarch Butterfly, that is AI-generated.

I can see the Gemini watermark on the lower right-hand corner. It's faint though.
