CollingwoodToday welcomes letters to the editor at [email protected] or via the website. Please include your full name, daytime phone number and address (for verification of authorship, not publication). The following letter is in response to Premier Doug Ford confirming he'll call for a provincial election next week.
Shame on Premier Ford and all who support him in this election.
It's $175M for an election that is not needed.
Ford has a mandate and calling an election and using Trump as the excuse is so bad.
But here are the real issues, buying the election with a $200 cheque, spending millions on unnecessary roads, a shortage of doctors in Ontario, and while some funds are going to hospitals, hospital foundations are raising funds for infrastructure and equipment. Shame on us.
We have education system that is not being supported, a spa in Ontario place, like really?! And not holding Metrolinx accountable…
The list is long, but let’s call an election.
I am disappointed.
Please do not have your campaign team knock on my door!
