If I had a billion dollars
If I had a billion dollars
Well, I’d buy you a house
I would buy you a fourplex in this housing crisis
And if I had a billion dollars
If I had a billion dollars
I’d buy equipment for your house
Maybe a nice heat pump with a rebate!
But, seriously, Mr. Speaker, how can this government possibly think getting booze in convenience stores one year early would be a priority for Ontarians in an affordability crisis, in a housing crisis, in a health care crisis, in a climate emergency?
My question to the Premier: Are you that nervous about the next election that you have to resort to games and gimmicks?
—a new Secord public school, which I talked to you about last week—they’ve been waiting forever;
—funding for Michael Garron’s redevelopment—hospitals aren’t that important these days, are they;
—cooling systems for our schools with extreme heat upon us;
—operational costs for TTC;
—family doctors for everyone;
—more affordable housing, especially assisted living.
If I had a billion dollars, I would invest in Ontario.
My question, through you, Mr. Speaker, to the Premier: Why are you spending a billion dollars on booze? Why are your priorities so skewed?
