We have a massive debt.
We have a huge deficit.
We have closed ERs.
We lack family doctors and nurses.
We need staffed hospital and LTC beds."And this is the best the #Ontario #DougFord government can do. I’m so disgusted."

@gemelliz Maybe someone should start a campaign for us all to donate the 200 bucks to their local hospitals...#fuckfordnation

@Mayor_of_Smartarse @gemelliz this very clearly illustrates how taxation is the best way to fund societal level problems like healthcare. People living paycheck to paycheck will spend this on basic needs like food.

@RowinSpeez @gemelliz Ford is just vote buying, or trying to. Anyone like myself who is lucky enough to make a decent wage doesn't need a cheque for what is maybe three fill ups at the gas station, but those worse off, who might really need this, deserve a lot more than this slap in the face. Health care in Ontario is a disgrace, and Ottawa shouldn't be giving money to the province for it unless it's spent on exactly that.

To those families struggling to put food on the table, #DougFord's suggestion that they blow $200 bucks to "treat the family to a nice dinner in a restaurant" is simply obnoxious.

I have rethought where my donation will go.
I was thinking to a riding association for NDP/LIB/GRN whoever had the best chance in the riding.Realization a more direct approach is necessary. There's 2 cheques coming to my house. Both will go here.

It seems you've moved from a political solution to direct social assistance...?

I am fortunate. It doesn't have to be either/or for me. I can and will do both.

@intothewestaway @gemelliz @Mayor_of_Smartarse @RowinSpeez I bet these folks are all going to donate their $200 to good causes, too…
