It’s time for a change — and this time, let’s make it permanent! Ontario and Quebec should work together to end the twice-yearly clock change. Families, businesses, and communities across Ottawa-Gatineau and our province deserve consistency. #onpoli

Richmond Hill! Thank you to everyone who joined us for a wide ranging discussion on everything from reforming our party to more accessible health care to supports for students. Ford’s Conservatives cut OSAP while ignoring years of warnings about a handful of private career colleges abusing it. Now thousands more students have been hung out to dry by this government. Our Ontario Liberal caucus is holding him to account, and it's resonating in Richmond Hill and communities across Ontario. Voting opens November 9. Together, let's build an Ontario that works for everyone.

The Ford PCs' Fall Economic Statement shows a government failing Ontarians when they can least afford it. No support for workers, no answers for students, and no plan to tackle the cost of living crisis. Doug Ford says he's Protecting Ontario, but I haven't seen the proof that it's working. #onpoli

Emergency forest firefighting shouldn't be an afterthought, but the Ford PCs are treating it like one. Ontario needs an updated budget that gives forest firefighting crews the resources to fight fires effectively and limit damage to communities. #onpoli

Young Liberals like Maya Abrokwah are doing the hard job of looking ahead to where this party and province go next after Doug Ford. As Policy Co-Chair of the University of Toronto Young Liberals, she's backing this campaign, and I'm glad to have her. Maya wants a party that people of every generation and every region of Ontario can see themselves in. That's the party I’m proud to say we're building together.

Students are dealing with debt, uncertainty, and the fallout from a government that let serious OSAP problems grow for years. Nolan Quinn’s response? “I will not apologize.” “I will not resign.” No remorse. No accountability. Just students left to deal with the consequences. #onpoli

Uncapped, unpredictable rent increases are hurting renters. Instead of having stability, people are left wondering what next year’s rent will look like & whether they’ll be forced out of their homes. Phased-in rent control is a tested way to keep rents fair for everyone.#onpoli

My reaction to Minister Quinn in Question Period today. His pre-written talking points aren’t doing it for me. I’m not buying what he’s trying to sell, and neither should you. Years of warnings about alleged OSAP fraud. Hundreds of millions in questionable funding. Thousands of students now cut off from OSAP. Students deserve accountability, not rehearsed lines. #onpoli

Katherine is a constituent in my riding, but thousands of students across Ontario are in the same position as her. The Ford PCs broke OSAP, and now students like Katherine are caught in the fallout of this government's failure. #onpoli #FixOSAPASAP

Ontario relies heavy on exporting our garbage to Michigan. So next time you throw something in the trash, remember that's revenue for Donald Trump. #onpoli
ROGERS: Canadians send truck after truck after truck loaded with their trash into our state. The President just this week announced he's going to tariff those trash trucks!

After months of Doug Ford keeping MPPs away from Queen’s Park, we’re finally back! There’s a lot to tackle in just 23 days, but I’m ready to keep the heat on the Ford PCs and get the answers Kingston and the Islands deserves. #onpoli

Nearly five months. But glad to be back to advocate for Kingston and the Islands. – at Toronto, Ontario
Time to put away the shorts, for the summer break at Queen’s Park has finally come to an end. While the hiatus allowed the government to avoid scrutiny during question period, opposition parties say a number of issues have built up over the summer and fall, giving political critics plenty of issues to grill the Progressive Conservatives on. globalnews.ca/news/12121679/… #onpoli

Winning the next election and building an Ontario that works for everyone will take both fresh perspectives and experienced political hands who know what it takes to win. William Spotton has worked on more than 30 campaigns throughout his career. Gaining his endorsement tells me we’re building the kind of campaign Ontario needs: One that brings together experience, energy and a shared determination to win. I’m grateful to have William’s support and proud of the team we’re building together. Join us: LeeFairclough.ca

Gambling-related suicides in Ontario have tripled since Doug Ford’s PCs privatized online casino games and sports betting in 2022.  I asked the Minister of Health what she’s doing to address this crisis. @SylviaJonesMPP failed to offer solutions that actually tackle the root causes of gambling addiction. The government must act now. Stop advertising online gambling. Prevent gambling harm before it happens. Sign my petition to ban online gambling advertising: leefairclough.ca/gambling  #onpoli

I’m delighted to have Dorothy Noronha’s endorsement. I’ve known Dorothy since I first ran for office in 2022, and I’ve always been impressed by the range of her professional experience and her determination to make Ontario better after too many years of Doug Ford. It will take committed people like Dorothy working together to build an Ontario that works for everyone. I’m grateful to have her on our team. Join us: leefairclough.ca
