  • Thursday October 8 at 11 A.M
    Please distribute widely. Updated as of September 30. Ontario Health Coalition UPDATED LIST BELOW Day of Action on Long-Term Care Thursday October 8 at 11 a.m. We are calling for: • Immediate action by the Ford government to recruit & train staff, improve pay and working conditions and provide full-time work. Quebec's and BC's governments have already done this. There is no excuse for further delay. The conditions of work are the conditions of care. • The Ford government to implement a minimum care standard of 4-hours of hands-on care per resident per day. • Both our federal and provincial governments to end for-profit long-term care, starting by making Revera public. The funding and staffing announcements this week so far increase the money but the announced staffing is far less than needed and strings are not attached to ensure that care levels are actually increased. There is no clear recruitment plan and the updated visitor policy does nothing to stabilize the workforce or increase the care per resident. What we are calling for has not changed, and is needed now more than ever before. Join the Day of Action to create political pressure to expose the lack of action to improve care in long-term care and to push for an end to for-profit privatization of long-term care. 15 Gervais Drive, Suite 201, Toronto, Ontario M3C 1Y8 Tel: 416-441-2502 Email: [email protected] Web: www.ontariohealthcoalition.ca UPDATED LIST OF EVENTS, PLEASE JOIN IN: If you would like to organize an action in your area, in accordance with our safety guidelines and Public Health rules, please contact us at 416-441-2502 or [email protected] (with the subject line: DAY OF ACTION) Current Public Health guidelines forbid groups of more than 25 outside across Ontario.

  • “They Demanded — Under Duress — That We Stop Supporting Belinda ​[​Karahalios​]. We Are Appalled at This Bullying An
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report August 20, 2020 Quotation of the day “They demanded — under duress — that we stop supporting Belinda [Karahalios]. We are appalled at this bullying and abuse ​ ​ ​ of power. It is a direct attack on our democracy!” The now-derecognized PC riding association in Cambridge sends out flyers attacking Premier Doug Ford and the PC Party over alleged "intimidation tactics." ​ Today at Queen’s Park Written by Sabrina Nanji On the schedule The house reconvenes on Monday, September 14. The roster for the Select Committee on Emergency Management Oversight — which will scrutinize ongoing extensions of emergency orders via Bill 195 — has been named. The ​ ​ majority-enjoying PC side will feature Bob Bailey, Christine Hogarth, Daryl Kramp, Robin ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Martin, Sam Oosterhoff, Lindsey Park and Effie Triantafilopoulos. The New Democrat ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ members are Gilles Bisson, Sara Singh and Tom Rakocevic; Liberal MPP John Fraser will ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ take up the Independent spot. The committee was struck as an accountability measure because the PCs empowered themselves to amend or extend the emergency orders for up to the next two years, without requiring a vote or debate in the legislature. Bill 195, the enabling law, also requires the premier ​ ​ or a designate of his choosing to appear at the special committee to justify any changes to the sweeping emergency orders. Premier watch An RFP for the next leg of the Eglinton Crosstown tunnelling project will be issued today. Premier Doug Ford announced the move in Mississauga Tuesday alongside cabinet’s ​ ​ transportation overseers Caroline Mulroney and Kinga Surma. ​ ​ ​ ​ Three construction consortiums have already been shortlisted and are now able to present their detailed costing plans to Infrastructure Ontario.

  • November 24, 2020 Mr. Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario Mr. Jeff Yurek
    November 24, 2020 Mr. Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario Mr. Jeff Yurek, Ontario Minister of Environment, Conservation and Parks RE: Schedule 6 of Bill 229 Dear Premier Ford and Minister Yurek, Ontario’s conservation authorities were created by a Conservative government in 1946 when Ontario was experiencing desertification after a period of uncontrolled deforestation. After the devastation caused by Hurricane Hazel the importance of watershed based science including regulating development in valley lands and flood plains became apparent. If you do not remove schedule 6 from bill 229, we will all be forced to live with the consequences. Because this change was included in a budget bill, the public was not given opportunities to comment before it was voted on. This government is the government of all of us, not just the development community. It is a blow to democratic government to give developers the right to force fast-tracking of development approvals and to appeal decisions that do not award them what they have asked for. Citizens who wish to challenge planning decisions that would cause harm to the environment are not given these same rights. The Minister should not have the power to negate a Conservation Authority’s refusal to issue a development permit. We object to the restriction you wish to place on Conservation Authority members to act on behalf of the watershed and not only in the interests of their municipality. Not all municipalities look at the long term health of the environment; many are only too pleased to push ahead any development regardless of consequences down the road.

  • Doug Ford's Coming Tuition Announcement Is
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report January 17, 2019 Quotation of the day “Doug Ford’s coming tuition announcement is going to turn out to be a smoke and mirrors exercise.” NDP MPP Chris Glover joined the chorus of post-secondary advocates concerned ​ ​ about today’s expected announcement about tuition fee cuts and OSAP changes. Today at Queen’s Park On the schedule The House is recessed until February 19. Government sources have told Queen’s Park Today, and reportedly the CBC, that cabinet will ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ convene today.
