Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
The leaders of the free world, including Mulroney, Thatcher, and Reagan, came together to defeat that Evil Empire 37 years ago today.
The fall of the #BerlinWall was led by heroic defenders of human dignity and democracy across the former Soviet Bloc. We remember all who perished at the hands of communism.

As U.S. tariffs hammer Canadian steel producers, we’re doubling down on our steel industry and the workers who power it.
To kick-start the economy, we announced $66 million in new contracts across Eastern Ontario to help build the Western world’s first Small Modular Reactor.
That includes contracts for Ontario-made and milled reinforced steel announced with @GeorgesDarouze, @SteveClarkPC, @johnjordan_lfk & @BillytheKidPC.

An intimate gathering of proud Canadians united in Kettleby to remember the veterans who served.
As we head into November 11th, wear a poppy with gratitude for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We owe it to them.

An overflowing mass filled with the power of hope and faith, led by Cardinal Francis Leo @StDavidsMaple.
In a world filled with conflict and division, I was moved by the Cardinal’s unifying reminder that, “we are ONE family.”

Celebrating 30 years of compassion and love @HospiceVaughan.
It was a proud day when we expanded this residential palliative care centre, and even prouder as the community rallies behind the mission for the next 30 years.

Thrilled to join Minister @Sflecce and many of our colleagues at @ArmstrongFT in Scarborough today, as we announced 14 contracts with GTHA companies to help build @OPG’s grid-scale Small Modular Reactors at Darlington, the first in the G7.
These contracts will support local jobs, and add over $110 million to Ontario’s GDP, including $3.9 million for Armstrong Fluid Technology, and $1.6 million for Mississauga’s Arkbro Industries.
With 80% of project spending going to Ontario companies, we’re strengthening local supply chains, and supporting workers that have been impacted by U.S. tariffs. And once complete, Darlington’s four SMRs will generate enough clean, reliable electricity to power 1.2 million homes. #ProtectOntario

Before the U.S. or any G7 nation, it is Ontario and Canada that will build the Western world's first small modular reactor.
Ontario is leading the way by firing up our supply chains as we announced 14 contracts worth $100 million, creating manufacturing jobs across the GTHA.

Ontario’s HST rebate on new homes has protected nearly 28,000 good-paying Ontario jobs over the last six months, saving thousands of families up to $130,000 off the cost of a new home and keeping the dream of homeownership alive in the province.

Minister Lecce, we have appreciated your consistent commitment and persistent advocacy for this initiative. This will be a game changer for the communities we serve.
For years, we’ve worked to bring a new medical school to Vaughan, and we’re delivering.
Great to welcome @YorkUniversity’s President Lisa Philipps to Queen’s Park.
Backed by our government’s $55.8M investment, York’s new medical school will train more family doctors as we build a campus of care alongside a new long-term care home and the Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital.

Ontario’s first-ever Mineral Recovery Permit to @STLLRgold streamlines permits to extract residual minerals from legacy mine waste.
A new way of enhancing sustainability, while creating jobs as the company recovers up to 225,000 tonnes of historic mine tailings at the Hollinger site in Timmins.
It was a pleasure to sit down with the company and @GeorgePirieMPP, meeting days after Ontario issued the second permit to keep moving this project forward.

An important investment as Ontario reaches an inflection point, with new large-scale nuclear projects and mines set to create tens of thousands of good-paying jobs for young Canadians.
We’re preparing the next generation of skilled workers to seize these opportunities.
Learning a trade is one of the best decisions a young person can make.
By 2035, one in six job openings in our province will be in the skilled trades. That’s why we’re investing over $64 million to create 4,000 new apprenticeship training seats each year, giving more young people the opportunity to build rewarding, lifelong careers.

The @enbridgegas Dawn Hub is Canada’s largest natural gas storage facility and one of the largest in North America, playing a critical role in keeping energy affordable and reliable across Ontario.
Our tour with @PinsonneaultLKM and @BobBaileyPC demonstrated its essential value to our economy, as the Dawn Hub helped shield Ontario customers from regional gas prices that surged up to 700% higher during global market volatility.
That’s Made-in-Ontario leadership keeping energy affordable for families, farmers and businesses.
