Toronto mayoral hopeful Brad Bradford, who's known for his deep ties to former mayor John Tory, is insisting that 's housing crisis can be traced to the "failed policies" of the city's last progressive mayor David Miller... who was elected 20 years ago.. and not the policies of recent former mayors Rob Ford and John Tory.

@PatrickoftheG
For starters, Brad Bradford's wife is Kathryn Randle who is Vice Chair of BILD = the Building Industry and Land Development Association who in turn are very vocal cheerleaders of Doug Ford's aka "pave over the with mansions" plan.

Reminder that Bradford is the Chair of Toronto's Planning & Housing committee. Randle is also a registered lobbyist, and associated with the Rockport Group..a condo developer.

Hey !
Mayoral candidate Mark Saunders is vowing to cut "waste" to rescue the city’s pandemic-ravaged budget — but we must wait until after the election to know what he would cut.

👉​ Same playbook as "Just Trust Me" Doug Ford and his secret mandates.

"Get It Done"

Reminder: Doug Ford's public endorsement of Mark Saunders comes with a long list of PC's donors funding the campaign.

in Norway, people who are aiming to be business executives wear a blue outfit when they graduate from high school (known as "blåruss") and people who aim for blue collar, technical or working class professions wear a red outfit (known as "rødruss").

my friend is married with children and is fairly conservative. and he votes for a party that has some blåruss sympathies.

i guess i'm more of a rødruss kind of guy, but i read books and learn things. and so does he.

His work is done. He will be well rewarded.

No major publication will properly cover the big picture, even if they occasionally adopt an insightful take on the story of the day or week. Occasional mention of wasted opportunities, decline, or lost years coverage of this period of intense looting is the best you can expect.

Police say they still need more time to investigate rape-accused Tory MP.

He has been bailed four times since his arrest, but police are now seeking to extend his bail for a fifth time.

The Conservative Party has given the MP the green light to stand for re-election despite the ongoing investigation.

Toronto’s $15 million mayoral election was triggered when this duplicitous prat resigned only 3 months! following last Fall’s election after admitting to a years long affair with a young staffer. Now he’s back advising and campaigning with his former deputy and now mayoral candidate Ana Bailao. If you're ok with the status quo and Fordian backroom deals..she’s your ticket.

Reminder to rural Ontario voters experiencing hospital Emergency Room closures.

Under the Ford govt. has the lowest hospital funding with the fewest hospital beds and nurses per capita of any province in Canada.
👉​ Revenue however is $19.5B HIGHER than in 2021. (BILLION)

Will these repeated ER closures hurt the generational PC vote in rural Ontario>>

As long as the Ford are in power, healthcare privatization is a done deal in this province.
It will be further entrenched, not dismantled; it's far too lucrative.

Ford will gleefully continue to use "OHIP funds to pay shareholders. He's simply using taxpayer money as a trough to feed greedy profiteers who prioritize their wealth over Ontario's health."

re: Ontario Hospital Closures:

Reminder: the purpose of Fords’s was to:

  • “Move healthcare workers out of public healthcare into private, for-profit healthcare.

  • Soak hospitals on staffing to hasten their demise.

  • Make politicians, former politicians & their families (who own the nursing agencies) really fukking rich”
