The Ontario Science Centre didn’t need to be shut down. The public was lied to by their own government.

Thank god we’ve got a Premier who spent half a billion dollars on a luxury spa. Should we just funnel patients there, Doug? What do you think? #ONPoli

Reminder: Without Unions labour rights wouldn't exist. Without the right to withhold labour (strike) what power do workers have? If you can't refuse work - you're not a free person

Canada Post is leaving workers in the cold (literally). These workers are fighting for fair wages, job security, and better services for everyone. They deserve better than to face intimidation tactics like this. #ONpoli #ONlab

Reminder that previous Canada Post strikes were seminal in advancing collective bargaining, the right for every Canadian to take maternity leave, and wages for civil servants. Your packages will survive, don’t cross the picket line 🙏🏼

a record low 43.5% voter turnout put Doug Ford back into a majority in 2022 and since the start he’s been lying his way through it, demeaning health and science, making sketchy deals with developers, and moving our society backwards

As an Ontario science educator, I find it tragic that our world class science centre has been reduced to a mall attraction. You should be ashamed of this. Maybe if it sold beer your government would have found a way to save @OntScienceCtr.
It was wonderful visiting the @OntScienceCtr satellite location at Sherway Gardens and seeing so many children enjoying the exhibits, Towers of Tomorrow and Circus! This pop-up features exciting, family friendly, interactive activities guaranteed to inspire young minds!
