    I congratulate Mr. Smith on his appointment, however I am still waiting to hear his response to the question that I posed at the All-Candidates meeting.

    “Can he explain why he supported the legislation preventing owners of private LTC homes from being prosecuted by families who lost loved ones due to neglect during the pandemic?” I wonder if Mike Harris being a board member at Chartwell, being paid $250K/yr had anything to do with this?

    BTW – isn’t it interesting to see Doug Ford appoint his nephew to the cabinet as Minister of Citizenship and Multiculturalism?
