Another poll (this from a pro-Red pollster) shows about the same voting intention breakdown overall.

Ontario Liberal leader’s campaign bus using ‘incorrect’ number for people who died while on surgery waitlists
The Liberals' bus says '11,000 people died waiting for surgery last year,' but Ontario Health data obtained by The Trillium shows the number is much smaller

So folks only begrudgingly walk back inaccurate/dishonest figures in their “storytelling” when they’re called in them…

Would have been smarter just saying, "Hey, we f@#$%^&*()ed up with the total, including other deaths." Don't think it'll hurt the overall campaign much, but hard lesson learned by the Red Comms Team re: whose #'s they trust. This, also, from a party leader with some political experience, too. And the clock is ticking fast on these Ontario campaigns.

Doug is promising GO Train improvements. If you vote for him.
Another issue Ontario voters may, or may not, wish to consider in the upcoming provincial election is Ontario assuming the Don Valley Parkway and Gardiner Expressway from Toronto.
Whoever owns the roads, there is a lot of revenue involved for "vehicle incidents" in Toronto. Including the provincial QEW and 400-series highways that TFS responds to.
TFS bills non-city residents $559.86 per Fire Vehicle dispatched to vehicle incidents for the first hour. Each additional half-hour $279.93

As Kingston is still at the mercy of overpriced VIA for commuting to Ottawa or Toronto, its a "meh" from me.
Then again, we're not a vote rich area so who gives a fuck about anywhere outside the GTA?

That's no small local either. Something like 8000 members and retirees.

Hell hath frozen over. Can we now smite those who would destroy us?
With great vengeance and furious anger of course
I don’t particularly like Ford but think he’s far better to deal with the Trump threat than the leaders of the Liberals or NDP.

They're barely delivering on GO 1.0.
I doubt municipal service (fire department) billing is a big money maker. The rate is set by the MTO and is intended as cost recovery and it's the same if it is Toronto Fire or Podunk Twp. It an insured service. The MTO pays the municipality then invoices the involved parties. The involved parties send the invoice to their insurance company.

Interesting how they do the calculations,
1)Two vehicle collision, one resident and one non-resident: billing shall be only 50% of the total cost recovery fees demanded of a non-resident; or,(2)Three vehicle collision, one resident and two non-residents: cost recovery fees shall be divided (as per this example) by three and one third shall be demanded of each of the two non-resident drivers.

So it would be the death penalty for provincial, not federal, crimes.
Murder? Life sentence.
Going 45 km/h on a city street that's a 40 km/h limit? Death.
