    As I was filling up my car leaving Ignace, I was happy to see this retailer who posted a note indicating the newly imposed carbon tax is reflected at the pumps. Gas price at Ignace is 149.9 today! This job-killing carbon tax is tax on everything, making ON simply unaffordable.

    Today with @RodPhillips01 I announced that at every gas pump across Ontario, drivers will soon know the impact of the federal carbon tax on their wallets. This would take the form of a "gasoline transparency sticker" that'll identify the hidden federal carbon tax.

    The Order in Council for the Ontario Legislature to resume sitting at 12:01am on Monday has been signed. My cabinet colleagues and our caucus are working hard to ensure the timely passage of the Efficient Local Government Act. #onpoli #topoli

    Today, Premier @fordnation and I announced $10M to investigate former Indian Residential Schools burial sites in the province. Ontario will work under the guidance of Indigenous leaders and communities to support this painful and necessary work.

    The people of Ontario have the right to understand how this job-killing carbon tax will impact them. Make no mistake about it, this is a tax on everything. That is why our government is fighting this tax to ensure no family or business is burdened by this unfair tax.

    The right thing to do is keep the lights on. The NDP should stop playing political games and support our bill.

    I am angry and frustrated with gas prices in nw ON. Kenora on Friday was 119.9 and today is 129.9. Sadly, the Federal Carbon Tax won’t help as it’ll result in a ¢4.4/litre increase to the price of gas so fill up today! It’s the last day before the Federal Carbon Tax comes to ON.

    Glad to welcome firefighters from Mexico to help fight against several large forest fires in the Northwest. We are thankful for the brave efforts of Ontario’s forest firefighters and all the people that support their efforts to keep our communities safe. news.ontario.ca/en/release/100…

    Today with @MonteMcNaughton, I was pleased to announce our intention to repeal the failed "green" energy act. This legislation was driven by dangerous ideology and caused your hydro bill to skyrocket. We are committed to cleaning up the hydro mess and lowering bills by 12%
