We know that too many people fell through the cracks during the first provincial lockdown. Instead of learning from the devastation, Ford is sitting on billions in COVID-19 relief funds while issuing a lockdown. But I'm going to keep fighting for those supports.
This means fighting for paid sick days so that people who feel sick can afford to stay home.
It means supporting our front-line and essential workers, who are risking their health to keep our province running.
Ontario's already lost too many small businesses, and now those that survived the first lockdown are being asked to endure a second without sufficient support.
And our kids are being pushed into oversized classrooms while we are all told to limit our in-person gatherings. COVID-19 doesn't magically disappear in a school setting. Ford has to invest in capping class sizes now.
Renters facing evictions, Ontarians on ODSP, and so many more are being left behind by Ford's Conservatives.
But as we head into this week, I know that the entire Opposition caucus is going to fight for what's right.
We need to crush this virus, and we can't let people fall through the cracks any longer.
