@tylerwatt.bsky.socialDoug Ford’s next billion dollar scandal.
Seven private career colleges received $385 million in OSAP grants in 2024-25, amid serious questions about suspicious activity and government oversight.
I have asked the Auditor General to investigate.
It’s time to fix OSAP ASAP. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialStudents are worried about more than just cuts to their OSAP grants.
This government claims it is making life more affordable for students while saddling them with more debt in the name of making OSAP “sustainable.” But they already gutted OSAP in 2019. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialThe FAO says Ontario will be $2 billion short just to maintain CURRENT health care services.
I asked Minister Jones a simple question: yes or no, will there be service cuts?
She deflected. I asked again. She never answered. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialI asked the Health Minister about nurses and health care workers being laid off across Ontario.
She didn’t answer.
Throughout committee, she blamed the federal government, blamed the previous Liberal government from eight years ago, and avoided answering questions. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialHappy Rehabilitation Day, Ontario! As a geriatric rehabilitation nurse, this work has always been close to my heart. It was wonderful visiting my colleagues at the Geriatric and Rehabilitation Unit at QCH today. ❤️
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialProud to join teachers and education workers in Nepean this morning for their Day of Action.
Our schools need proper funding, safe and supportive classrooms, and the staff and resources students need to succeed.
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialDoug Ford likes to play “Captain Canada.” 🇨🇦
But while he talks about buying Canadian, his government keeps sending Ontario tax dollars to American companies.
Ontario deserves more than words. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialI joined Progress Canada to talk about Doug Ford’s attack on post-secondary education - from cuts to OSAP, program closures, and the growing pressure on Ontario’s colleges and universities.
Our public post-secondary system is worth fighting for.
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialOntario has three by-elections tonight. To all the candidates, as someone who has lost and won in elections, be proud of what you’ve done no matter the result. More importantly, thank your volunteers, because without them there wouldn’t be a possible win. And finally, get some well deserved rest.
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialWhat an incredible weekend celebrating love, community, and Pride right here in Ottawa! 🏳️🌈❤️
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialNurses are being fired across Ontario while ERs are overcrowded, patients are waiting hours for care, and those still on the front lines are burning out.
Premier Ford, Minister Jones - you need to understand how dire this situation is. Firing nurses is making our health care crisis worse. #onpoli
@tylerwatt.bsky.socialToday I stood in solidarity with OPSEU members, who have been on strike for 11 weeks, on the picket line.
It’s time for this government to stop pointing fingers and negotiate a fair deal. #onpoli
