Speaking of Ontario Place.. remember Premier Ford's plan to demolish the Ontario Science Centre?? He hasn't forgotten.

#DougFord has furtively transferred responsibility for the museum from the Minister of Tourism to the Minister of Infrastructure who is none other than MPP Kinga Surma -- aka Premier Ford's #OntarioPlace tsarina.

Together with Ford's powerful #Bill69 Ms. Surma now has complete control over both sites. #toronto #topoli #ontario

@phillmv same old, same old..🙄​

Premier Ford has been a friend & mentor to Ms. Surma for years. After appointing her as Infrastructure Minister he introduced #bill69 which gives Surma total authority over provincial real estate that was previously controlled by 8 other ministries. The Minister can now oversee & solely manage govt. properties with little scrutiny or pushback, including the Science Centre demo.
A "Get It Done" move by #DougFord.. if you don't mind the stench of corruption.

After appointing her as Infrastructure Minister he introduced #bill69 (69) which gave MPP Surma total authority over provincial real estate that was previously controlled by 8 other ministries, allowing her to oversee & solely manage all Ontario govt. properties with little scrutiny or pushback.
The Premier has also gifted Surma's father with a plum appointment. #onpoli #ontario

@Perspective
ha. The Ford govt is not known for sharing details on much of anything, including high-level (or any level) decision making.

With respect to #Therme & #OntarioPlace, #DougFord's #Bill69 gives Infrastructure Minister Kinga Surma full authority over provincial real estate that was previously controlled by 8 other ministries, allowing her to oversee & solely manage most of #Ontario's infrastructure projects.

#GetItDone #onpoli #ontario

Reminder: Doug Ford’s #Bill69 gives Etobicoke MPP Kinga Surma complete authority over provincial real estate that was previously controlled by 8 other ministries, allowing her to oversee & solely manage all property assessments and decisions.

Doug Ford's Infrastructure Minister Kinga Surma quietly introduced #Bill69 to enhance fiscal management, cut red tape, and waive the 30-day wait period between environmental assessments & construction starts.
👉​ Very concerning that Bill 69 also gives MPP Surma total authority over provincial real estate that was previously controlled by 8 other ministries, allowing her to oversee & solely manage all these properties.

"It was never about housing. It was about making certain land speculators incredibly wealthy. Ones well connected to the Doug Ford #Conservatives."

👉​ Ontario had designated more than enough land to build new homes without touching the #Greenbelt.

You should. Ford has inflated his power over your municipality as well.

Bye Bye #Greenbelt...

"This map showing the Hwy 413 route through the #Greenbelt is all you need to know about why Doug Ford wants to separate Brampton & #Caledon from Mississauga.
To clarify: Mayor Brown is compliant - he will do whatever Ford wants. Mayor Crombie is not - she actually pushes back against Ford. Ford wants to ram thro 413 & carve out Greenbelt land for his developer buddies as quickly as possible."

@Catelli @AnnieBuddy Doug Ford rammed through new rules so he now can “ get it done” without interference #bill23 #bill69 #bill97

The Ford #Conservative govt has imposed an MZO overriding years of planning by the City of #Mississauga and will double the development at Lakeview Village from 8,050 units to 16,000 with no height limitations.
MZOs are granted by MPP Steve Clark and allow bypassing the typical planning process, including public meetings and appeals.
Developers involved include Greenpark, TACC (de Gasperis) Brenthaven & Argo.

People need to remember that the #Greenbelt is not some sort of radical, lefty, ‘tree-hugger’ thing. There are really sound economic reasons for its existence.
“I suspect that a lot of people who voted for the Ford #Conservatives in the last election, in part because of Ford’s solemn promise [to protect the Greenbelt] have a case of buyer’s remorse today.”

👉​Did you know that Ford's #Bill23 has removed the power of #Ontario's Conservation authorities to review or mandate changes to development applications impacting any natural heritage system, such as waterways, ravine trails & farmland.

“The province doesn’t realize the full impact of their decision. Their approach is very simplistic: they just do & don’t think, or don’t care. If we don’t play ball, they’ll take the ball away.”
