Premier Ford ending his court challenge to keep #Bill124’s wage caps, would go a long way to keep Ontario in the game.

He's gaslighting you, Ontario.
Trying to convince you this isn't a crisis of his making...while his own gov't documents explicitly state #Bill124 is driving healthcare workers off the front lines, where they’re urgently needed. And fighting in court to keep wages down. #onpoli https://twitter.com/colindmello/status/1613242861906165760

#Bill124 has worsened the healthcare crisis in Ontario and needs to go. #Ford needs to drop the appeal. Ford and Minister of Health Jones are wasting taxpayer money to hurt nurses and other health care workers. #OnPoli https://globalnews.ca/news/9340310/health-care-ontario-bill-124-ford-government-documents/
Yet they're appealing the #Bill124 decision. Clear priorities, eh?
Ford government documents admit low wages, Bill 124 worsening health staffing issues

#Bill124 is no longer in effect and @WesternU@twitter.com is now in a position to fairly compensate faculty.

(5/) But the #dougford #tories have accelerated this process to an extreme. After taking power in 2018 they passed #Bill124 into law. This law capped healthcare workers' wage raises at 1% per year, cut benefits, and reduced full-time staffing. With inflation averaging 6% a year this means nurses suffered a 5% pay cut every year since 2018.
The gov has been refusing to hire more F/T workers or adequately fund departments -- even entire hospitals.

So they starve their own nurses through structural gender pay discrimination only to bring overseas nurses to pay them less and create a permanent gendered underclass or is it the indentured servitude of the temporary foreign workers’ program? #Bill124 https://twitter.com/fordnation/status/1598459814149255175
Great rundown from @alexcosh on initial reactions to the court decision on #Bill124.

#Bill124 was ruled unconstitutional. The #OntarioGovernment should accept that this is true, not waste additional money appealing the decision. I am unaware of a previous time when the government of #Ontario has so openly acted in ways which undermine and destroy so many valuable things (#healthcare #greenbelt #housing #government)

"Ontario court strikes down [#Bill124], law limiting public sector wage increases" It's time we re-negotiated affected wage increases, for all affected employees past and present, with interest on the back-pay. Enough to cover inflation, before increases based upon performance, seems fair to both sides. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-bill-124-ontario-public-sector-wage-increase/
#Bill124 was declared unconstitutional by the Ontario Supreme Court.
If the Ford government invokes the NWC in response, we know what comes next. #generalstrike #onpoli

#Bill124 is, at least for now, dead. A big and important win for Ontario public sector workers, especially in healthcare.
Here’s hoping for another swift defeat on appeal.
