What a silly question! That happens automatically when he changes the name of the Province from "Ontario". "Ontario" obviously sounds like three men in a tub discussing Rorschach.

And in addition to that, he probably has some anesthesiologist friends and promised them they can charge whatever they want. No frill surgery. The truly sad part is that those who cannot afford the services, will not receive them. But then, no one has ever accused the Conservatives (or Ford Fam) for having too much compassion. As for pain management services, living with chronic pain is no fun and if it can be managed with other alternatives it will save lives, marriages and mental agony. Honestly I really can't understand the thought process of the cabinet. When I wrote them regarding the Toronto Council, their basic answer was: "Since the council size does neither concern or affect my constituents" etc etc. Well, these healthcare measures are going to affect their constituents. What's next? Clapping complacent to the beat of Doug Ford's asinine decisions?

The Red Ensign has been dead and gone for 54 years. There's probably less than 1% of Canadians who'd favour abolishing the iconic maple leaf to restore it.

Ah, but again: as per my link, which I'll presently repost...

So for DoFo to leave the Ontario Ensign alone makes sense as a sop to the Faith Goldy electorate, so to speak.

I never suspected there was this much gravy on that train:
The Special Investigations Unit, which probes deaths, serious injuries and allegations of sexual assault involving police, will see its funding slashed by more than $3 million in the next fiscal year.
But seriously folks, this will do nothing to halt crime and gun violence. This budget cut will seriously hamper police investigations in (ahem) drugs and gang violence. (including police violence)

Mr Premier. With all respect our story is accurate and your own staff have acknowledged that to me. The government identified targets to save from OHIP and the Ministry identified services to be considered. I encourage everyone to read the full story you tweeted out.
"This is another case of the media jumping the gun and not getting their facts straight before running with a story. I would never agree to this. I want to be clear: this was never my position, never my plan." Doug Ford, April 5, 2019

This is just how the Ford government operates. They propose something, get tons of pushback, and backtrack on it. One gets used to it after a while.

So, now he's going to fire "his own staff" who ratted him out?

She handled this SO well. He comes across as a lunatic and she just lays out the facts.
