The @OYLorg has spent months advocating for a leadership race that creates the opportunity to grow our membership and mobilize Young Liberals across the province. These rules were designed to do exactly that. Let the race begin!
This is a moment that matters — our 2026 leadership election details are here. This leadership process puts members at the centre and the future in focus. The choices we make now will shape what comes next: who leads, what we stand for, and where we’re headed. For our party.

I’m encouraged to see Amy actively considering a run for Governor because of what she showcased through her most recent memoir: working across the aisle, being motivated by the real stories of hardworking constituents, and doing everything she does with hard work, heart, and joy.

In the book, Senator Klobuchar discusses resilience from a cancer diagnosis, trying to be there for friends and family during the pandemic while being a US Senator, and running for President against Donald Trump. All doing this with joy!

My New Year’s resolution this year was to read more books. When considering the selection of books I had, Governor Walz decided to step out of the gubernatorial race and that Senator @amyklobuchar was considering stepping up. This led me to The Joy of Politics

Ontario is the sick man of Canada when it comes to housing. In 2025, Doug Ford only made us sicker. Ontario Liberals are standing up for renters and proposing real solutions. #onpoli

We asked caucus one simple question: what’s your favourite holiday song? 🎶 Turns out, we’ve got range.

This is a government running away from the people and the truth.
No accountability. From the moment we arrived at this press conference we were instructed to ask “on-topic” questions only, and that we would be given “one question each” when we were called on. I was never called on & Premier Ford refused to take my questions.

Today, we learned the Integrity Commissioner has taken on @stephaniesmyth’s request to investigate @DavidPiccini’s conduct regarding the Skills Development Fund. This is a critical first step to getting to the bottom of the rot — and restoring integrity at Queen’s Park. #onpoli

Ask people in Niagara if they want more casinos — or urgent care centres that stay open year round. @fordnation should be investing in doctors and nurses instead of more gambling. #onpoli
NEW: Premier Doug Ford is unveiling what his government has been internally referring to as "Vegas of the North": The government wants new casinos, new attractions, and an observation wheel, an electric tram - in a bid to make it a year-round, week-long destination. #onpoli

Doug Ford wants the Legislature shut down until March 23rd — more than a month late — so he can spend time in Miami instead of Queen’s Park. After barely showing up, rushing bills through, and dodging accountability, he’s ready to disappear again. You deserve better. #onpoli

At Queens Park, it's the last day of question period for 2025. The legislature has sat for just 51 days this year. I'm told that's the fewest since 2007 #onpoli

Another police investigation involving this government: OPP Anti-Rackets Branch is now probing Keel Digital Solutions following a forensic audit. Why did @fordnation keep paying Keel tens of millions after it triggered a forensic audit? Ontarians deserve the truth. #onpoli
The Ontario Provincial Police have launched an investigation into a company connected to the Skills Development Fund after the province found “suspicious activity” relating to payments it received from a different branch of government.

We had a great @OntLiberal Central East regional training session yesterday in Peterborough. Day by day, each of our provincial liberal associations are getting stronger and that will set us up on the path to victory the next election!

Building a home is not like turning on a light switch. It takes years and today's lack of sales, means that tomorrow workers in the skilled trades will be out of work AND those in my generation and younger will be shut out of the housing market. https://t.co/jfZHW14RU0

The October figures, detailed in a monthly analysis by Altus Group released by the GTA-based Building Industry and Land Development Association, show an erosion even from last fall’s sluggish market.

Colleen Jones asked me to interview her a couple of months ago during a chemotherapy appointment. She told me to write one heck of a story. I hope I did her proud. About always believing something wonderful is about to happen. My tribute to Colleen:
cbc.ca
Colleen Jones was a tour de force. When you were with her you felt invincible and that anything was possible. She made you a believer.
