Dear Ontario, Doug Ford, Dr. M. Fullerton, Christine Elliot and Stephen Lecce have all failed us. They all chose to shortchange our 2nd wave Covid response. They failed to invest $$$ into a safe school opening, defying medical advice & best practices. 1/6
With school reopening, they did a cost-benefit analysis; and saving lives and stopping Covid DID NOT prevail over saving a few bucks. Similarly, they failed our seniors in LTCs. They passed legislation to protect private LTCs from litigation, rather than save lives. 2/6
Ford & friends opened bars, casinos, strip clubs & indoor dining too early, against medical advice.They ignored data, stood by idly as the virus spread exponentially thru the fall. They took half-measures, and tried to distract us w cheese cake. But now there's a new variant.3/6
