This is money that should have gone into healthcare to pay doctors and nurses more, to hire more doctors and nurses, to open more spots in medical and nursing schools to train more doctors, or into education to increase teacher pay or the number of teachers or the condition of it schools. How about to pay for bussing so our buses aren’t cancelled 1 or 2 days a week because of a lack of drivers willing to drive or kids for poverty wages?
This is a very expensive political stunt. He’s throwing you a few bucks so that you will ignore the billions of dollars of graft his government is committing.
It’s bullshit.
If every person in Kemptville Ontario signed over their cheque to the local hospital it would be able to buy the CT machine it’s been fundraising for, a CT machine the government should be paying for in the first place
I pledge to say fuck you to Doug Ford and his stupid political stunt and to sign poverty my $200 cheque to KDH the day it arrives to help pay for the CT machine my taxes should have already paid for.
Please consider doing the same. Sign over your cheque, your hard earned tax dollars, to a local school or hospital. That’s where this money should have gone anyway.

Opposition leaders slam idea as a ‘stunt’ and a ‘gimmick’
This could be the subheadline for every Ford government policy announcement and it would be accurate. Stunts, gimmicks, and saying “folks” a lot is the entire chest of tools that he has to cover blatant corporate corruption.
“Ontarians see right thorough these stunts,” Stiles said
Oh, if only that were in any way true
Too many Ontarians are willfully ignorant, and are easily swayed by simple answers (and wrong) to complex problems that don’t involve any behavioural changes. Apparently we have one of the most highly educated populations in the world, yet we don’t vote like it.
Oh man, that inflation will get ya, back in the day it was only $20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH6kUCqIfD4
He does this with every election. Literally tryng to buy votes LOL
Only stupid people fall for this to sway their votes.
Oh, wait….
I’m surprised he isn’t sending out Tim Hortons gift cards at this point.
He doesn’t want to poison “his base”.

It’s amazing how little people need to be bribed to ignore serious offenses. Recently, TD bank got hit with a massive $3 billion fine for money laundering. They admitted to aiding in laundering $670 million from likely criminal sources. What’s more is that bank staff were paid a total of $57,000 in gift cards to not report the large undisclosed payments and transfers. Fraud likely in the billions being ignored by bribes in the ten thousands.
Not to defend TD in any way, but those staff members know that reporting the crime will get them at best nothing and at worst fired. Taking the bribe gets them 28500 Tim Hortons coffees.
